[ThomasWeiser]

I can confirm this, exactly same issue.

[somebears]

Can confirm aswell

[jplatte]

This issue was already fixed a week ago. You'll have to update aura manually.

[ThomasWeiser]

This issue was already fixed a week ago. You'll have to update aura manually.

IMHO this may be a different issue. I updated aura-bin manually to aura-bin-1.3.5-1. This version doesn't detect pending updates.

If I am supposed to rebuild some cache or the like please tell me how to do so. I am unsure how aura determines those packages that were previously built and installed by it.

[jplatte]

Well, what @flying-sheep described is the bug that was fixed a week ago, where checking for updates and searchined worked, but downloading PKGBUILDs or something along that line fails.

If aura -Au doesn't show any updates but you know there are some packages in the AUR in newer versions than you have installed locally, then you might want to create a new issue. It works for me, though (I have the same package version). There is no cache to be cleared.

[ThomasWeiser]

I'm not getting it. @flying-sheep introduced this issue with a description of the old problem (issue #404) and then continues to describe the new problem.

@flying-sheep Do I misunderstand your issue? If not, maybe you should focus in your opening post on the new problem.

[flying-sheep]

actually i opened this issue the day it occurred so it must still apply today: i identified it 2016-03-30.

you said it would’ve been fixed “a week ago” i.e. 3-31 - 7 = ~ 3-24, which is impossible as i identified it after that date

[jplatte]

@ThomasWeiser: Oh right. Guess I didn't read the original post thoroughly enough, sorry.

One thing I see with the package you gave as an example though is that the versioning scheme changed completely. Like I said I upgraded a package (I think it was gtk-theme-arc-git) today just fine and that worked, so either it's specific packages only, or specific other circumstances.

[ThomasWeiser]

Don't think that it's specific to certain packages or their versioning scheme. Here is a list of pending updates on my machine, as determined by former version 1.3.4 (patched by replacing aur4.archlinux.org with aur.archlinux.org in the binary):

> aura-1.3.4-patched -Au
atom-editor-bin : 1.6.0-1 => 1.6.1-1

ncurses5-compat-libs : 6.0-2 => 6.0-3

The current version 1.3.5 doesn't list any of these updates:

Thank you for attending to the matter!

[jplatte]

Thank you for attending to the matter!

I didn't really do anything besides getting confused about what this bug report is actually about and doing some basic troubleshooting. And I'm afraid that might be all I am able to do without being able to reproduce this on my end. Would be good to know whether @fosskers can reproduce this...

But to go forward with the basic troubleshooting, I did find the option --auradebug. For me sudo aura --auradebug -Au outputs:

[ThomasWeiser]

I'm having the same problem on my laptop, but not on my desktop. I can't remember what I did different when upgrading to 1.3.5 the two different computers.

[fosskers]

Hey guys, with 1.3.5 I just successfully performed an -Au. Dependencies were detected, and installation succeeded.

[ThomasWeiser]

@fosskers: Thanks for testing. On my machine the problem still exists: While there are a set of necessary package updates, aura -Au doesn't find any (version aura-bin 1.3.5-1). Installing or updating packages with aura -A <package>work fine.

So it seems to work for some people, but not for others. Only idea I have at the moment is, that I used the patched version 1.3.4 in the meanwhile, which others may have not. Maybe this makes a difference.

I am curious: how does aura detect necessary updates? Does it compare the whole list of installed packages with the AUR? Or is there a list of packages formerly installed by aura -A? Anything I can check on my side?

[jplatte]

EDIT: Apparently, it's not that easy to build aura 1.3.4. You'll probably have to clone https://github.com/aurapm/haskell-aur and checkout + install an older version, but I haven't tried that.

@ThomasWeiser I think the best idea is to bisect this issue so we can find out where this bug was introduced. Seems like 98c61b3d7e1cbb8066349c18d36cccdfcce7206c is 1.3.4 and 654cfd7952ad04bd347364e2e1ae41879bdbd65c is 1.3.5. Would have been easier if this repo had release tags by the way, @fosskers.

Anyway, if you're unfamiliar with git bisect, here's basically what you have to do:

git checkout 98c61b3d7e1cbb8066349c18d36cccdfcce7206c
stack build
sudo "$(stack path --local-install-root)/bin/aura" -Au

git checkout 654cfd7952ad04bd347364e2e1ae41879bdbd65c
stack build
sudo "$(stack path --local-install-root)/bin/aura" -Au

and then, assuming you still get the same results (1.3.4 detects updates, 1.3.5 doesn't)

git bisect start
git bisect good 98c61b3d7e1cbb8066349c18d36cccdfcce7206c
git bisect bad # current commit

which will make git select and checkout some commit between 1.3.4 so you can check whether the error is present there, and mark that with git bisect good (error not present) or git bisect bad (error present). With the amount of commits between 1.3.4 and 1.3.5 (17), I think you should have to do this maximally 5 times before git tells you which commit introduced the bug.

[ThomasWeiser]

I would gladly do a git bisect. Unfortunately my Haskell installation is broken at the moment. I am unable to repair it due to external constraints. If the problem still exists until then, I may be able to try it in two weeks.

Maybe someone else who reported the issue here can jump in.

[sebeaumont]

I'm seeing exactly this issue with aura built from the github head today -- just doesn't find any packages at all... I m using ghc 7.10.3 and cabal 1.22 to build -- unfortunately I can't spend time on this -- need to install some stuff and get going.

[fosskers]

Hey guys, thanks for your patience.

@ThomasWeiser the command pacman -Qm will tell you what foreign packages exist on your system. Aura uses this information, does a batch query on package names, and compares local and upstream version numbers for updates.

@jplatte re: tags. Yes, you're right. I haven't been as vigilant with that lately.

@sebeaumont Unfortunately I'm able to -Au with Aura built from the github head.

Everyone, the problem with 1.3.4 existed in the aur package. 1.3.5 is only a small change to handle an update to aur. If there is a problem, I think it's there and not within Aura itself.

[jacksenechal]

From the aura-bin AUR page:

anks commented on 2016-03-21 19:15 In case you were getting the following error:

aura >>= The following are not AUR packages ...

Here's some hackish fix:

sudo sed -i 's/https:\/\/aur4.archlinux.org\//https:\/\/aur.archlinux.org\/\x00/' /usr/bin/aura

I was having this issue and the above sed command was a good quick fix. Then running sudo aura -A aura-bin works like normal.

[shioyama]

@jacksenechal +1 thanks for the tip!

[joshproehl]

I have two computers with aura-bin installed (1.3.5). On one of them Aura seems to be working correctly, but on the other all I get is:

aura >>= Fetching package information... aura >>= Comparing package versions... aura >>= No AUR package upgrades necessary. aura >>= No valid packages specified.

I've uninstalled aura-bin and re-installed it manually, to no effect. The above sed replacement doesn't seem to have any effect either.

Any suggestions or things I can do to help debugging of this issue? (Other than git bisect, which I may be able to attempt if necessary.)

[fosskers]

@joshproehl Do you have a Haskell dev environment?

[joshproehl]

@fosskers I was able to compile the current HEAD using stack, and it exhibits exactly the same behavior as the installed package. (An example package which should be caught is Spotify, currently version 1.0.27.73-1 in AUR. pacman -Qm spotify shows spotify 1.0.25.127-1)

Checking out 98c61b3d7e1cbb8066349c18d36cccdfcce7206c, with a minor change to stack.yaml to pull aur 4.0.2, is partially successful (at least it finds that there are things TO upgrade, possibly the aur4 problem?):

[illis]

Can confirm I get the same issue as @joshproehl.

https://github.com/aurapm/aura/commit/514f54ea98462bc750a5434c3c2ec6b69a4e317b Gives me similar output (different packages) to what @joshproehl posted above.

https://github.com/aurapm/aura/commit/82161de5886734485b697c3b54e43576fb54c733 Doesn't detect any package changes.

Still learning Haskell, so my coding skills aren't quite up to scratch; but willing to help out testing any patches/branches.

[fosskers]

Quite update as I'm fixing this: aur seems to have broken again, strangely. Its info and search calls to the AUR seem to be timing out.

[flying-sheep]

so aura 1.3.6 still doesn’t work. i upgraded powerpill and all.

[fosskers]

Can you try the following each several times, and tell me the result?

curl -4 "https://aur.archlinux.org/rpc?v=5&type=search&arg=foobar"
curl -6 "https://aur.archlinux.org/rpc?v=5&type=search&arg=foobar"

They constrain the request to use ipv4 and 6 respectively.

[joshproehl]

@fosskers here are the results from one run of each. I did each several times as you requested, they appear to be the same on each run. (I am running a dual-stack network, and aura-bin 1.3.6 has not resolved the issue.)

Thanks. For me it cuts in and out. Can you wait a bit and try again?

Also try through a browser, with the Network tab open in the dev tools. Can you see what IP is being called for the AUR?

[joshproehl]

Chromium getting the aur query has: Remote Address:[2a01:4f8:160:3033::2]:443

Which is the only ipv6 address available for aur, according to host

I'll try fetching it via curl periodically, but it's been successful every time. The only thing I'm noticing is that the fetch time (in Chromium)is usually 200ms, but occasionally jumps to 700ms.

[fosskers]

What country do you live in? Both aura and curl -6 are timing out for me right now.

[joshproehl]

Portland Oregon, USA. IPv6 is coming through a Hurricane Electric tunnel to Seattle Washington USA.

We're digging pretty deep here. Please go upvote the issue I just linked to.

[fosskers]

The IPV4 for the AUR seems to be 5.9.250.164, except when you reenter that in a browser's search bar, it resolves to bbs.archlinux.org via IPV6, with a 301 "Moved Permanently".

[fosskers]

Firefox claims https://aur.archlinux.org/rpc is at 5.9.250.164:443, with no redirect.

[flying-sheep]

that did nothing for me. but i also never had problems with timeouts, it almost instantly reports “No AUR package upgrades necessary”

[joshproehl]

FYI, aura 1.3.6 experiences this problem in an IPv4-only environment, so the problem doesn't appear to be IPv6 specific.

[fosskers]

Thank you for your patience guys, I know how annoying this is.

[joshproehl]

Anything we can do to help diagnose this issue further?

[fosskers]

Not at the moment, I'm going to see how things are once we're git-based.

[joshproehl]

Checking in on this again to see if there's anything we can do to help. Aura is currently unusable for actually managing AUR packages, and I'd prefer not to try and find a new aur helper as I've been quite happy here! :-)

I'm happy to try and help write some code if there's a need, but at this point I'm not sure what exactly is needed.

[originalsouth]

In the mean while could do something ugly like: for p in $(sudo aura -Qm | cut -d ' ' -f 1); do sudo aura -A --noconfirm $p;done as a workaround...

[fosskers]

AUR connection issues fixed with 1.3.7.
