Aur助手Paru

发表于 更新于

2023年09月08日星期五雷阵雨北京市北京师范大学,打算尝试一下Archlinux下的新的Aur助手，安装命令为

paru
1
sudo pacman -S paru

详细用法参见： paru 进阶教程

使用paru安装软件时，首先解决github.com无法访问的问题，此参见： 解决ArchLinux使用yay或paru安装软件时从Github下载慢或不可下载的问题

为了避免每次下载时都进入审阅模式，请执行命令：

skipreview
1
paru --skipreview -S foobar

使用方法参考官方的ReadMe文件，如下

General Tips

  • Man pages: For documentation on paru's options and config file see paru(8) and paru.conf(5) respectively.

  • Color: Paru only enables color if color is enabled in pacman. Enable color in your pacman.conf.

  • File based review: To get a more advanced review process enable FileManager with your file manager of choice in paru.conf.

  • Flip search order: To get search results to start at the bottom and go upwards, enable BottomUp in paru.conf.

  • Editing PKGBUILDs: When editing PKGBUILDs, you can commit your changes to make them permanent. When the package is upgraded, git will try to merge your changes with upstream's.

  • PKGBUILD syntax highlighting: You can install bat to enable syntax highlighting during PKGBUILD review.

  • Tracking -git packages: Paru tracks -git package by monitoring the upstream repository. Paru can only do this for packages that paru itself installed. paru --gendb will make paru aware of packages it did not install.

Examples

paru <target> -- Interactively search and install <target>.

paru -- Alias for paru -Syu.

paru -S <target> -- Install a specific package.

paru -Sua -- Upgrade AUR packages.

paru -Qua -- Print available AUR updates.

paru -G <target> -- Download the PKGBUILD and related files of <target>.

paru -Gp <target> -- Print the PKGBUILD of <target>.

paru -Gc <target> -- Print the AUR comments of <target>.

paru --gendb -- Generate the devel database for tracking *-git packages. This is only needed when you initially start using paru.

paru -Ui -- Build and install a PKGBUILD in the current directory.

IRC

Paru now has an IRC. #paru on Libera Chat. Feel free to join for discussion and help with paru.

Debugging

Paru is not an official tool. If paru can't build a package, you should first check if makepkg can successfully build the package. If it can't, then you should report the issue to the maintainer. Otherwise, it is likely an issue with paru and should be reported here.
