pacvamp update

  • Usage: pacvamp update [FLAGS]

Update the machine: repositories, then the AUR

Refreshes the sync databases, plans the repository upgrade with the manifest's holds and the per-tier release-age floors, reviews every AUR package that has a newer commit, shows one plan, and applies it. Unattended (-y), a finding that denies skips that AUR package and the rest continues. Ends with the orphan and pacnew reports.

Flags

  • -y --yes — Proceed without asking; findings deny rather than warn
  • -n --dry-run — Preview without installing; may fetch recipes and signed feeds
  • --no-aur — Skip the AUR
  • --aur-only — Only the AUR
  • --no-refresh — Do not refresh the sync databases first
  • --prune-orphans — Remove dependencies nothing needs any more
  • -J --json — Print the preview as JSON without installing; may populate caches
  • --wait — Queue behind another running update instead of failing
  • -h --help — Print help
