command

From Laco K · May 13, 2022

hi there,

I needed to install an app in Debian using dpkg. It did not install as some packages were missing. The instructions then say:

Note - If the installation fails because of missing dependencies, try installing these dependencies using the following command :

apt-get -f install

This fixed the problem and everything installed well.

When trying to accomplish this in Manjaro I run into the same problem. What would be the proper command (the analogy to the above Debian command) to install the missing packages?

sudo pacman ........  ?

thank you,

L

sudo pacman -U packagename

unless you are using the "aur" then its whole different command and different ballgame.. since the "aur" is a user based app list.. and contains way more apps that can be installed...
