[arch-general] Can't install e4rat from AUR: pacman fails to install missing dependencies
Hello everyone! I'm having problems installing E4rat from the AUR ( https://aur.archlinux.org/packages.php?K=e4rat&SeB=x). Installation fails: $ makepkg -s ==> WARNING: Sudo can not be found. Will use su to acquire root privileges. ==> Making package: e4rat 0.2.1-2 (Sun Oct 9 17:34:22 CEST 2011) ==> Checking runtime dependencies... ==> Checking buildtime dependencies... ==> Installing missing dependencies... Password: error: target not found: audit ==> ERROR: 'pacman' failed to install missing dependencies. I performed a search with pacman -Ss, and audit seems not to be in the repos. Has anyone encountered this problem yet? Thanks. Lorenzo

I haven't encountered the problem, but there's a solution: Search the AUR when deps for AUR PKGBUILDs are missing. https://aur.archlinux.org/packages.php?ID=24070

I performed a search with pacman -Ss, and audit seems not to be in the repos. Has anyone encountered this problem yet? Yes, audit is not in the official repos, it can be found in aur though. Install it from there. You could use a pacman wrapper (eg. yaourt) to handle these. Cheers, Mark
Thanks.

Thanks everyone for the quick responses! I'm embarassed, it was really trivial... I didn't even think it could be in the AUR! Cheers! And thanks again! I love arch community!

It's in the AUR. pacman -Ss searches only the official repositories. John == http://homepages.inf.ed.ac.uk/s0930006/ -- The University of Edinburgh is a charitable body, registered in Scotland, with registration number SC005336.
