Quick question, would you say Aura 4 is a good reference for learning Rust in the same way that <4 was for Haskell? |

For learning how to write command line apps (especially ones with localisation!) I would say yes. I've worked hard to keep it simple and well-laid out. |

How do you deal with cycling dependencies ? I have an issue with mangohud here, which prevents any update. For the record: Is there an option to at least ignore that package so it updates anything that doesn't touch this cycle? |

I am also having an issue with cyclic dependencies. I upgraded from Aura 3, which didn't have a problem with this, but after jumping to Aura 4.0.0-alpha8, I can no longer install pipewire-full-git, either by itself or with Unfortunately with no depgraph or anything like that to look at, I can't see what aura sees and can't do much about it. And with no way to give aura instructions on how to resolve the dependency cycle, I can't upgrade the system with |

Thank you for reporting this. I've confirmed it: very strange that it resolves dependencies and offers to I don't see anything out of the ordinary with Ah, here it is: // Proceed if the user accepts.
proceed!(fll, "proceed").ok_or(Error::Cancelled)?;
// --- Determine the best build order --- //
let order: Vec<Vec<&str>> = aura_core::aur::dependencies::build_order(&to_build)?;
debug!("Build order: {:?}", order);We see that build order is only determined after the user has accepted. Within petgraph::algo::toposort(&graph, None)
.map_err(|cycle| match graph.node_weight(cycle.node_id()) {
None => Error::MalformedGraph,
Some(b) => Error::CyclicDep(b.to_string()),
})? |

Occasionally there are some funny self-dependencies in PKGBUILDs I suspect that may be the source of the issue here. |

Given how complex this package definition is, I suspect you will have to upgrade this package manually for now with |

What can be done to allow complex pkgbuilds like this to be installed by Aura? I'd like to be able to go back to using If there is code I can contribute I would not mind trying my hand at writing the required functionality. |

One immediate option would be to add the the output of which you can copy to Otherwise, the issue is how the "build order" is constructed. In the Rust, we're doing a naive Topological Sort of the dependency graph. In the ancient past, the original Haskell version used to do this too, but was eventually updated to do a number of manual graph operations and could handle complicated dep cycles like this. Unfortunately this logic hasn't yet been ported to the Rust. If you'd like to try your hand at it, the file in question is |

Aura is an ALPM-based package manager and system management tool for Arch Linux and its derivatives.
Hi everyone! 👋 Aura 4 (the Rust port) has been in development for some time, and is nearly ready for a release. Before announcing it on the most public channels, we're doing a limited Alpha and Beta to work out the initial post-port kinks.
Roadmap
aura check.crates.ioreleases.Installation
auracan be installed directly fromcrates.io:Provided you have
~/.cargo/bin/on yourPATH,aurashould now work:Now, the first real thing you should check is
aura check. If there's something about its output that isn't clear to you, please ask about it here!Usage and Expectations
The help menus have been vastly improved. Check out
aura -hto see all the available subcommands (new or old), or paired with a subcommand likeaura -Ah.And a few other major usage notes:
sudo, but only when needed. You never need to prefixaurawithsudo!-Syuno longer requiresudo. So:aura -Syuworks just fine.-Au. There are more subflags to add if you wish (checkaura -Ah).~/.config/aura.toml.~/.cache/aura/, not/var/cache/aura/as before.Otherwise, as Aura is an ALPM-based package manager, it can do everything
pacmancan do. Go nuts.Questions / Discussion
