#+title: AUR-Helpers
|
||||
|
||||
AUR helpers automate usage of the [[id:b75bbc20-fc24-44b9-be3a-8dbcdcbea63e][Arch-User-Repository]]. In particular, they may automate the following tasks:
|
||||
- searching for packages published on the AUR;
|
||||
- resolving of dependencies between AUR packages;
|
||||
- retrieve and build AUR packages;
|
||||
- retrieve web content, such as user comments;
|
||||
- submission of AUR packages.
|
||||
Pacman only handles updates for pre-built packages in its repositories. AUR packages are redistributed in form of PKGBUILDs and need an AUR helper to automate the re-build process. However, keep in mind that a rebuild of a package may be required when its shared library dependencies are updated, not only when the package itself is updated.
