Table of Contents

Install link

There are usually two ways to install woeusb from AUR. pacman is the way to go if you are comfortable using command-line interface and understand the concept of how packages are built. If not, yay is a popular alternative to install packages without the hassle of reviewing PKGBUILD and build packages with makepkg afterwards.

Using pacman link

sudo pacman -S --needed git && git clone https://aur.archlinux.org/woeusb.git && cd woeusb && makepkg -sicontent_copy

1. Install git if it is not already installed.
2. clone the package’s git repository from upstream URL.
3. cd into the directory that we just cloned.
4. Use makepkg to build the package. Also, it will automatically be installed with pacman afterwards.

Using yay link

Update link

Just like installing AUR packages, updating them is pretty much the same. All you have to do is pull it from AUR then re-build it. Nevertheless, it is still recommended to upgrade your whole system first with sudo pacman -Syu before updating any packages to avoid breaking your system, since Arch is a rolling-release Linux distro.

Using pacman link

git pull && makepkg -sicontent_copy

1. pull from the package’s git repository.
2. Build the package with makepkg , then update it with pacman .

Using yay link

Uninstall link

Compared to installing and updating packages, removing is the easiest of these three,just choose whether to remove the unused dependencies and the configuration files used by the package.

Using pacman link

sudo pacman -R woeusbcontent_copy

sudo pacman -Rs woeusbcontent_copy

sudo pacman -Rns woeusbcontent_copy

Using yay link

yay -Rs woeusbcontent_copy

yay -Rns woeusbcontent_copy

Is this supposed to take more than 20 minutes to install? Should I be worried?

I previously installed woeusb-ng but it wouldn’t work. So now I’m installing woeusbgui and it’s taking more than 20 minutes to install, heating up my CPU. What am I doing wrong?

edit: More than 30 minutes now.

edit: I cancelled it. This is super weird.

edit: I re-installed woeusb-ng, which has a GUI, and it works perfectly (although it took 1/2 hour to install the bootloader to the USB).

Hey seberm, I’ve managed to add warnings about this package to show up in the pacman installation. You can now check it out and leave your comments if you want anything else to add

seberm commented on 2021-12-28 21:36 (UTC) (edited on 2021-12-28 21:36 (UTC) by seberm)

could you please add info (e.g. into post-install hook) that this package is an old unsupported version of woeusb which still keeps the gui support but it’s not longer maintained? Could you also please add a link to latest woeusb AUR package (https://aur.archlinux.org/packages/woeusb/)?

I think this could save people some time when they encounter problems with an old woeusb version (e.g. https://github.com/WoeUSB/WoeUSB/issues/96#issuecomment-1002287311).

sandboiii commented on 2021-02-17 15:16 (UTC)

@gardotd426 I’m well aware of the situation with the new repos as I maintain the woeusb package. I specifically made this current package to preserve the old gui version of woeusb. I have checked it with my own usb drive and it got detected correctly, so I’m assuming it works as intended. If you want up-to-date maintained version, then you can use the woeusb package or the woeusb-ng which you mentioned yourself. I will keep this old gui version as long as it available on GitHub.

Well, I mean, you’re using a «maintenance» release only intended for package maintainers, I mean it includes a file called The.source.code.archives.provided.here.is.NOT.supported.please.use.git-clone.instead with contents that say

This is a dummy file for package uploaders to resolve the undenyable GitHub Release source code archives.

The slacka/WoeUSB repo is dead, and they’ve moved and changed everything. The regular WoeUSB no longer supports a GUI, and they split the GUI off into it’s own repo. Read the README from the repo you’re trying to use. It explains everything.

woeusb-ng is the provider of the GUI now. And sure enough, the woeusb-ng AUR package works fine.

You may not have changed anything, but the repo changed, and now GUI isn’t supported, and everything has moved to new repos (so obviously this isn’t a valid source in the first place, since there will be no more updates).

I honestly just suggest removing this package from the AUR.

@gardotd426 I didn’t change anything in the PKGBUILD except for the package name. It’s all the same program, so if you have any ideas what might be wrong feel free to share.

gardotd426 commented on 2021-02-15 16:42 (UTC)

It won’t detect my usb drive. Old woeusb definitely detected it (I used it like a week ago).

I tried running your woeusbgui as root, since woeusb-ng asks for the root password when launching it (just like other GUI programs that need root permissions, like Gparted). Still didn’t work.

So, I decided to update package to the newest woeusb version which doesn’t have gui anymore. If anybody needs the old gui version I created https://aur.archlinux.org/packages/woeusbgui/ package.

Hi guys, it seems that the WoeUSB repository has been migrated to https://github.com/WoeUSB/WoeUSB and it’s current version is 5.0.4 by the time of writing this comment.

More info can be found at the old repo README.md file https://github.com/slacka/WoeUSB

sandboiii commented on 2021-01-19 20:45 (UTC)

@myl7 @Singularity you are right guys, this is my first time maintaining a package, so I didn’t know this information. As said in the wiki members of base-devel should not be included as dependencies. I am going to remove them.

myl7 commented on 2021-01-18 17:18 (UTC)

@Singularity You are right. My bad. Thanks for remindation. @sandm As automake and autoconf are in base-devel , removing them from dependencies may make more sense.

Singularity commented on 2021-01-18 17:07 (UTC)

@myl7 Everyone who is using the AUR is expected to have the packages from the base-devel group installed. You should do that, to avoid running into issues, with pacman -S base-devel

sandboiii commented on 2021-01-17 14:25 (UTC)

@myl7 added automake dependency

myl7 commented on 2021-01-16 00:01 (UTC)

May miss build dependency automake .

Without it, when installing the error is:

Can't exec "aclocal": No such file or directory at /usr/share/autoconf/Autom4te/FileUtils.pm line 274. autoreconf: error: aclocal failed with exit status: 2 

Install automake and then the installation is fine.

sandboiii commented on 2021-01-12 20:44 (UTC)

Thank you, @benjumanji! I tried to make package without autoconf and it failed, so I added autoconf as dependency.

benjumanji commented on 2021-01-12 20:13 (UTC)

Missing dependency on autoconf.
