Refreshes the pacman package cache from the FTP servers and provides LWRPs related to pacman
Platform: ArchLinux. Pacman is not relevant on other platforms.
Use the pacman_group resource to install or remove pacman package groups. Note that at this time the LWRP will check if the group is installed but doesn't do a lot of error checking or handling. File a ticket on the COOK project at tickets.opscode.com for improvements and feature requests.
The options parameter can be used to pass arbitrary options to the pacman command.
Use the pacman_aur resource to install packages from ArchLinux's AUR repository.
- :build - Builds the package.
- :install - Installs the built package.
- version - hardcode a version
- builddir - specify an alternate build directory, defaults to
Chef::Config[:file_cache_path]/builds. - options - pass arbitrary options to the pacman command.
pkgbuild_src- whether to use an included PKGBUILD file, put the PKGBUILD file in in thefiles/defaultdirectory.- patches - array of patch names, as files in
files/defaultthat should be applied for the package.
Include recipe[pacman] early in the run list, preferably first, to ensure that the package caches are updated before trying to install new packages.
