pacman can't find some package in AUR 10 September 2021, 03:04:40 Hi guys, new to arch based distro, already made sure arch repos are in pacman.conf. When I do pacman -S android-studioit returns error: target not found: android-studioWhen I do pacman -Syyureturns :: Synchronizing package databases... system 263.2 KiB 234 KiB/s 00:01 [################################################] 100% world 1918.0 KiB 3.82 MiB/s 00:00 [################################################] 100% galaxy 1896.6 KiB 9.60 MiB/s 00:00 [################################################] 100% universe 66.3 KiB 422 KiB/s 00:00 [################################################] 100% extra 1586.2 KiB 1286 KiB/s 00:01 [################################################] 100% community 5.8 MiB 17.8 MiB/s 00:00 [################################################] 100% multilib 149.6 KiB 1496 KiB/s 00:00 [################################################] 100%:: Starting full system upgrade... there is nothing to doNot sure what is wrong.

Re: pacman can't find some package in AUR Reply #1 – 10 September 2021, 03:13:18 That's totally weird that pacman can't find only some packages in AUR. Because a normal pacman can't find any packages in AUR. It doesn't work with AUR.You must install packages from AUR manually or with an automated support of an AUR helper, such as yay or paru.
Re: pacman can't find some package in AUR Reply #2 – 10 September 2021, 03:32:22 Sorry I might confuse the community repo with AUR, when I use pacman -Ss android it returns some packages in the community repo but no android-studio which I found weird. Or maybe because it is not in the community repo but in the AUR?

You should refer to the documentation on how to enable them.

Or maybe because it is not in the community repo but in the AUR?I think I get what your issue is.The AUR is simply a common place where Arch Linux (and it's derivatives) users can post PKGBUILDs for various pieces of software that they use, this can be anything from minor software libraries to full on programs like android-studio.To download and manage these is either done by downloading the PKGBUILD manually from the AUR or using one of the numerous helper programs out there, like yay and paru.The community repo, is basically when some programs on the AUR prove to be so popular and so widely used, the Arch Developers decide to give them more 'official' support. 1 Likes
