pacman: command not found

ATHA targets Arch Linux. Install and run ATHA on Arch-based systems where pacman is available.

Permission denied while writing logs

ATHA writes to /tmp/atha.log when possible, then falls back to user cache:

• $XDG_CACHE_HOME/atha/atha.log
• ~/.cache/atha/atha.log

If log errors still appear, verify the fallback path is writable by your current user.

Permission denied (publickey) while pushing to AUR

Add your SSH public key in your AUR account settings, then retry push.

Quick checks:

ssh -T aur@aur.archlinux.org
git remote -v

Color code shows as raw text

Make sure ATHA is executed with bash and update to the latest package version.

update exits with error

Run these checks in order:

atha doctor
sudo -v
pacman -V

If dependency checks pass but the issue remains, include the latest log output when reporting:

tail -n 100 /tmp/atha.log
tail -n 100 ~/.cache/atha/atha.log
