Description:
The pacmatic script fails with the error /usr/bin/pacmatic: line 252: pacdiff: command not found if the user doesn't have pacman-contrib installed. Per https://www.reddit.com/r/archlinux/comments/8mu6de/notice_pacman_and_pacmancontrib_split/ the pacman package no longer contains pacdiff and the pacmatic package needs to add add a dependency on pacman-contrib. Additional info: * pacmatic version 20150126-1 Steps to reproduce: * ensure pacman-contrib is not installed * install pacmatic * run "pacmatic -Syu", if pacnew files exist to be diffed, the error "pacdiff: command not found" will be displayed |
