Doesn't start anymore

[afettouhi]

Pacman 5.1.0 just went into stable and the kde-arch-update-plasmoid now complains about "cannot start checkupdates". I have tried to rebuild kde-arch-update-plasmoid and the perl dependencies but still it complains.

Checkupdates or checkupdates-aur?

Disable aur support for now

I don't have my computer with me for maybe 2 weeks

I'll get to it when it arrives

checkupdates. Turning off aur doesn't change anything.

I have the same problem. In my journal I find: org.kde.archUpdate: Cannot start /usr/bin/checkupdates and when looking in /usr/bin I can only find checkupdates-aur . checkupdates is gone. When I try to rebuild the package I get this error during the process: expac: error while loading shared libraries: libalpm.so.10: cannot open shared object file: No such file or directory

The problem seems to be that pacman no longer provide /usr/lib/libalpm.so.10 . Instead it offers /usr/lib/libalpm.so.11(https://www.archlinux.org/packages/core/x86_64/pacman/files/)

That's how far I got. Do you have a clue on what this means? I can try to fix it.

I found the problem: https://www.reddit.com/r/archlinux/comments/8mu6de/notice_pacman_and_pacmancontrib_split/

pacman-contrib should be added to the dependencies

[afettouhi]

I can confirm this. After installing pacman-contrib and rebuild the plasmoid everything works again.
