go installs but bluetuith command not found and installing from the release

error: missing package metadata in Downloads/bluetuith_0.0.1_Linux_x86_64.tar.gz error: 'Downloads/bluetuith_0.0.1_Linux_x86_64.tar.gz': invalid or corrupted package

What program are you using to extract the binary from the tar ball?

I was able to extract the binary using tar: tar -xvzf bluetuith_0.0.1_Linux_x86_64.tar.gz

and by using the Archive Manager application.

As for installing via go, ensure that your $HOME/go/bin is in your $PATH.

I used pacman.

pacman -U bluetuith_0.0.1_Linux_x86_64 That gives me the missing metadata error.

You can't use pacman to extract and install from the archive file, it is merely a tarball. Use tar or any archive program to extract and use it.

Alternatively, since the package is now in the AUR, you can use the following command to install it: pacman -S bluetuith-bin
