No dependency loop with yaourt any more

[simonszu]

Hi,

the website informs me that i should rather use pacaur instead of yaourt on Arch Linux to install openrazer-meta, due to an dependency loop.

I tried with a fresh Arch install and up-to-date package, and the installation with yaourt went without any problems. So, maybe i am able to tell you that this problem doesn't occur any more and that the installation with yaourt is possible again.

Was there a yaourt update since May?

Yes, yaourt 1.9 was released on July 19th, and the last yaourt buildfile update in the Arch User Repository is from September 19th.

Yaourt is still generally a bad AUR helper but we'll remove it soon from the website. But if there's one more report about yaourt not working, I'll put it back up 😉
