Paktahn Quickinstaller

Here’s a one-liner that will install Paktahn.

It will add the Paktahn binary repository to /etc/pacman.conf and run Pacman to install Paktahn.

wget -qO- http://viridian-project.de/\~sky/paktahn/quickinstall.sh | sudo sh

You just need to paste this line into a terminal. Review the script here, it’s very simple:

    Thanks for posting this. Been meaning to give paktahn a try for a while.

    However, it seems broken for me.

    johncc@liberator:~$ paktahn

    I figured it out. The above will on work in non-64-bit systems. You need to edit the /etc/pacman.conf and change the server line to:-

    Server = http://viridian-project.de/~sky/paktahn/repo/x86_64

    If you’ve already installed the 32-bit version as I had, this is how I fixed it.

    1) edit /etc/pacman.conf and comment out the [paktahn] repo.

    2) sudo pacman -R paktahn && sudo pacman -Sc
    (Answer yes to all questions)

    3) edit /etc/pacman.conf and uncomment the [paktahn] repo. Change the server line to :-
    Server = http://viridian-project.de/~sky/paktahn/repo/x86_64

    4) sudo pacman -Sy paktahn

    JohnCC, Thanks for testing and sorry for the oversight. I will fix the script to automatically detect the arch and configure the repo accordingly.

    Should be fixed.
