Chaotic-AUR - an automated building repo for AUR packages

How to use it?

First, install the primary key - it can then be used to install our keyring and mirrorlist.


        pacman-key --recv-key FBA220DFC880C036 --keyserver
        keyserver.ubuntu.com

pacman-key --lsign-key FBA220DFC880C036


        pacman -U
        'https://cdn-mirror.chaotic.cx/chaotic-aur/chaotic-keyring.pkg.tar.zst'
        'https://cdn-mirror.chaotic.cx/chaotic-aur/chaotic-mirrorlist.pkg.tar.zst'

Append (adding to the end of the file) to /etc/pacman.conf:

[chaotic-aur]

        Include = /etc/pacman.d/chaotic-mirrorlist

Recommendations:

You may want to use powerpill to download from all mirrors simultaneously. We recommend doing updates this way: sudo pacman -Sy && sudo powerpill -Su && paru -Su.
Make sure to insert all mirrors in your pacman.conf or use chaotic-mirrorlist with all of them active if using powerpill.
If you are using other third party repositories, we recommend putting Chaotic-AUR prior to them in /etc/pacman.conf. Since we update most packages hourly and follow AUR PKGBUILDs, this repository is more suitable as first option when downloading packages.
If you need to omit a package update to use locally built ones (e.g: with native optimizations), you can add 'IgnorePkg = ...' to repo's section in /etc/pacman.conf
You can pick the repository which to download a package from like this: pacman -S chaotic-aur/dxvk-mingw-git. Some AUR helpers support it too, e.g: paru -S aur/firefox-hg
There is also a mirror for IPFS users by the pacman.store project. It can be found in the mirrorlist and is commented out by default.
You must have the multilib repository enabled.
