Configuration

~/.config/pikaur.conf

[sync]

AlwaysShowPkgOrigin (default: no)

when installing new packages show their repository name even if they are coming from one of the official Arch Linux repositories.

DevelPkgsExpiration (default: -1)

when doing sysupgrade count all devel (-git, -svn, -bzr, -hg, -cvs) packages older than N days as being upgradeable. -1 disables this. 0 means always upgrade. Passing --devel argument will override this option to 1.

FAQ

How to avoid manually importing GPG keys?

It's recommended to control the keys manually. However if you know what you doing, keyserver-options auto-key-retrieve GPG option will automatically import GPG keys.

To start working on a new language, say 'es' (Spanish), add it to the Makefile LANGS variable and run make. Then translate locale/es.po using your favorite PO editor. Run make every time the Python code strings change or the .po is modified.

Once done, don't forget to distribute the new language by adding it to the PKGBUILD package().
