Install dependencies arch linux

pacman/Rosetta

This page uses a table to display the correspondence of package management commands among some of the most popular Linux distributions. The original inspiration was given by openSUSE’s Software Management Command Line Comparison.

Tip: Arch users having to temporarily deal with another Linux distribution can use pacapt, a simple wrapper around other package managers.

Basic operations

Action Arch Red Hat/Fedora Debian/Ubuntu SLES/openSUSE Gentoo
Search for package(s). What exact fields are being searched by default varies in each tool. Mostly options bring tools on par. pacman -Ss dnf search apt search zypper search or zypper se [-s] emerge —search ( -s )

Querying specific packages

Action Arch Red Hat/Fedora Debian/Ubuntu SLES/openSUSE Gentoo
Show all or most information about a package. The tools’ verbosity for the default command vary. But with options, the tools are on par with each other. pacman -Si or pacman -Qi dnf list or dnf info apt show or apt-cache policy zypper info or zypper if emerge -S , emerge -pv or eix
Display local package information: Name, version, description, etc. pacman -Qi rpm -qi / dnf info installed dpkg -s or aptitude show zypper info or rpm -qi emerge -pv or emerge -S
Display remote package information: Name, version, description, etc. pacman -Si dnf info apt-cache show or aptitude show zypper info emerge -pv and emerge -S or equery meta
Display files provided by local package pacman -Ql rpm -ql dpkg -L rpm -ql equery files or qlist
Display files provided by a remote package pacman -Fl dnf repoquery -l or repoquery -l (from package yum-utils) apt-file list pfl
Query the package which provides FILE pacman -Qo rpm -qf (installed only) or dnf provides (everything) or repoquery -f (from package yum-utils) dpkg -S or dlocate rpm -qf (installed only) or zypper search -f (everything) equery belongs or qfile
List the files that the package holds. Again, this functionality can be mimicked by other more complex commands. pacman -Ql or pacman -Fl dnf repoquery -l dpkg-query -L rpm -ql equery files or qlist
Displays packages which provide the given exp. aka reverse provides. Mainly a shortcut to search a specific field. Other tools might offer this functionality through the search command. pacman -F dnf provides apt-file search zypper what-provides or zypper wp equery belongs (only installed packages) or pfl
Search all packages to find the one which holds the specified file. pacman -F dnf provides apt-file search or auto-apt is using this functionality. zypper search -f equery belongs or qfile
Show the changelog of a package pacman -Qc dnf changelog apt-get changelog rpm -q —changelog equery changes -f

Querying package lists

Action Arch Red Hat/Fedora Debian/Ubuntu SLES/openSUSE Gentoo
Search for package(s) by searching the expression in name, description, short description. What exact fields are being searched by default varies in each tool. Mostly options bring tools on par. pacman -Ss dnf search apt search zypper search or zypper se -s emerge -S or eix
Lists packages which have an update available. Note: Some provide special commands to limit the output to certain installation sources, others use options. pacman -Qu dnf list updates or dnf check-update apt list —upgradable zypper list-updates or zypper patch-check (just for patches) emerge -uDNp @world
Display a list of all packages in all installation sources that are handled by the packages management. Some tools provide options or additional commands to limit the output to a specific installation source. pacman -Sl dnf list available apt-cache dumpavail or apt-cache dump (Cache only) or apt-cache pkgnames zypper packages portageq all_best_visible /
Generates a list of installed packages pacman -Q dnf list installed dpkg —list | grep ^i zypper search —installed-only qlist -IC
List packages that are installed but are not available in any installation source (anymore). pacman -Qm dnf list extras apt —installed list | grep ,local zypper se -si | grep ‘System Packages’ eix-test-obsolete
List packages that were recently added to one of the installation sources, i.e. which are new to it. dnf list recent aptitude search ‘~N’ or aptitude forget-new eix-diff
List installed local packages along with version pacman -Q rpm -qa dpkg -l or apt list —installed zypper search -s or rpm -qa qlist -ICv
Search locally installed package for names or descriptions pacman -Qs rpm -qa ‘**’ aptitude search ‘~i(~n $name|~d $description)’ eix -S -I
List packages not required by any other package pacman -Qtt dnf leaves or package-cleanup —leaves —all deborphan -anp1 emerge -pc
List packages installed explicitly (not as dependencies) pacman -Qe dnf history userinstalled apt-mark showmanual grep -E ‘^i\+’ (workaround) emerge -pvO @selected or eix —selected
List packages installed automatically (as dependencies) pacman -Qd grep -E ‘^i[^+]’ (workaround) apt-mark showauto

Querying package dependencies

Action Arch Red Hat/Fedora Debian/Ubuntu SLES/openSUSE Gentoo
Display packages which require X to be installed, aka show reverse dependencies. pacman -Sii or pacman -Qii dnf repoquery —alldeps —whatrequires or repoquery —whatrequires apt-cache rdepends or aptitude search ~D$pattern zypper search —requires equery depends
Display packages which conflict with given expression (often package). Search can be used as well to mimic this function. pacman -Si or pacman -Qi dnf repoquery —conflicts aptitude search ‘~C$pattern’
List all packages which are required for the given package, aka show dependencies. pacman -Si or pacman -Qi dnf repoquery —requires or repoquery -R apt-cache depends or apt-cache show zypper info —requires emerge -ep
List what the current package provides pacman -Sii or pacman -Qii dnf repoquery —provides dpkg -s or aptitude show zypper info —provides equery files or qlist
List all packages that require a particular package pacman -Sii dnf repoquery —installed —alldeps —whatrequires aptitude search ~D:$pattern or aptitude why or apt-cache rdepends zypper search —requires equery depends -a
Display all packages that the specified packages obsoletes. pacman -Si or pacman -Qi dnf list obsoletes apt-cache show
Generates an output suitable for processing with dotty for the given package(s). apt-cache dotty

Installation sources management

Action Arch Red Hat/Fedora Debian/Ubuntu SLES/openSUSE Gentoo
Installation sources management edit /etc/pacman.conf edit /etc/yum.repos.d/$.repo edit /etc/apt/sources.list edit /etc/zypp/repos.d/$.repo layman or eselect repository
Add an installation source to the system. Some tools provide additional commands for certain sources, others allow all types of source URI for the add command. Again others, like apt force editing a sources list. apt-cdrom is a special command, which offers special options design for CDs/DVDs as source. edit /etc/pacman.conf dnf config-manager apt-cdrom add zypper ar layman or overlays
Refresh the information about the specified installation source(s) or all installation sources. pacman -Sy (always upgrade the whole system afterwards) dnf clean expire-cache and then dnf check-update apt-get update zypper refresh or zypper ref emerge —sync or layman -S
Prints a list of all installation sources including important information like URI, alias etc. cat /etc/pacman.d/mirrorlist cat /etc/yum.repos.d/* apt-cache policy zypper repos or zypper lr layman -l or eselect repository list
List all packages from a certain repo paclist zypper search -r or zypper se -r eix —in-overlay
Disable an installation source for an operation dnf —disablerepo= emerge package::repo-to-use
Download packages from a different version of the distribution than the one installed. pacman -S repo_name/package dnf —releasever= apt-get install -t release package or apt-get install package/release (dependencies not covered) zypper install -r package echo «category/package ~amd64» >> /etc/portage/package.keywords and then emerge package

Overrides

Action Arch Red Hat/Fedora Debian/Ubuntu SLES/openSUSE Gentoo
Add a package lock rule to keep its current state from being changed edit /etc/pacman.conf modifying IgnorePkg array edit dnf.conf adding/amending the exclude option apt-mark hold pkg zypper al or put package name in /etc/zypp/locks /etc/portage/package.mask
Delete a package lock rule edit /etc/pacman.conf removing package from IgnorePkg line apt-mark unhold pkg zypper rl or remove package name from /etc/zypp/locks /etc/portage/package.mask (or package.unmask )
Show a listing of all lock rules cat /etc/pacman.conf /etc/apt/preferences zypper ll or view /etc/zypp/locks cat /etc/portage/package.mask
Set the priority of the given package to avoid upgrade, force downgrade or to overwrite any default behavior. Can also be used to prefer a package version from a certain installation source. edit /etc/pacman.conf modifying HoldPkg and/or IgnorePkg arrays /etc/apt/preferences , apt-cache policy zypper mr -p edit /etc/portage/package.accept_keywords adding a line with =category/package-version
Remove a previously set priority /etc/apt/preferences zypper mr -p edit /etc/portage/package.accept_keywords removing offending line

Use some magic to fix broken dependencies in a system for pacman dependency level, use pacman -Dk ; for shared library level, use findbrokenpkgs AUR or lddd (from devtools ) dnf repoquery —unsatisfied apt-get —fix-broken and then aptitude install zypper verify revdep-rebuild
Add a checkpoint to the package system for later rollback (unnecessary, it is done on every transaction) n/a
Remove a checkpoint from the system n/a n/a n/a
Provide a list of all system checkpoints n/a dnf history list n/a

Download the corresponding source package(s) to the given package name(s) Use ABS and makepkg -o dnf download —source apt-get source or debcheckout zypper source-install emerge —fetchonly
Build a package makepkg -s rpmbuild -ba (normal) or mock (in chroot) debuild rpmbuild -ba , then build, and then osc build ebuild or quickpkg
Check for possible packaging issues namcap
(requires namcap )
rpmlint lintian rpmlint repoman

Log file rotation

By default, Arch Linux does not rotate pacman.log . See, for example, FS#11272 and FS#20428#comment66480. This is in contrast to the default policy of most other Linux distributions. Some distributions, notably Gentoo, hardly write log files by default.
