This is the best video tutorial that I have seen about using Linux tools. You are very concise, informative and detailed. I hope you will make more videos like this.
Dude! THANK YOU!!! I am new to Arch ,and have been banging my head trying to do anything with those packages that are outside of the norm. I know it's going to be a VERY productive day thanks to what you have graciously shared with us new pacwannabees! Seriously, thanks!
Best tutorial explaining the arch package managing system. Currently using netrunner rolling and this video really made my arch experience better! Cheers!
Nicely done, found the information very helpful. Just installed my first Arch VM machine. Trying in on a VM before replacing Fedora 31 on my production machine. I'm well versed with apt and dnf, the pacman through me for a couple hours till I found your video. Gave you a big thumbs up!
why arch is taking alot of time from me: Open terminal to install something > type "sudo apt install PACKAGE" out of habit > think "aww crap, i dont have apt anymore" > install with pacman This happens since WEEKS. Using Debian based distros for years really shows now :D
Good, usefull video, thanks. The best part is, seeing last slide "octetz"... I was like "hey, I've seem this name before". it happens that i already subscribed to you, rss :)
For those trying to install Yaourt, it is broken right now move to yay ( aur.archlinux.org/packages/yay ) instead, the process is the same and it works exactly as Yaourt. aur.archlinux.org/yay.git
Amazing video. A tip for the next video. Your recorded screen is just the terminal, but something happens if you "clear" the terminal, your prompt goes right to the top of the recorded window. If someone, like me, is taking notes in fullscreen mode, and I move the mouse over the video or play/pause the video, I cannot see where you are typing because RUclips overlays the title of the video, just up there at the top of the video. So please arrange it to type not just at the top of the screen, ok? Once said that, excellent video. I am looking forward for more Arch videos. Would you be able to make a video about how to secure Arch after installation? Thanks, I will subscribe.
Hi, Noob here. :) In the process of installing Arch on a 10 year old laptop. Having some problems with the graphics card and any gui manager. However, my question is what software you used for your presentation? I'm still equating Windows stuff to Linux stuff so I'm curious what people use for various tasks (LibreOffice, Kdenlive, Gimp, etc.)? Thanks. Like others, I appreciate your direct information and no fluff or drama.
Install Manjaro KDE. OSB Studio seems to be popular among Linux users. If you are new to Linux but want a modern customizable and stable OS then install Kubuntu LTS. I wouldn't recommend rolling releases to newbies since the constant updates will sometimes break or it will be too much information to absorb. Start with Kubuntu, then Manjaro, and then you can start with Arch. The reason is that once you familiarize yourself with the programs it will be a lot easier for you to pinpoint problems on your OS.
If you have pacman install an AUR package from the Git clone URL, does pacman have the ability to update that package in the future using sudo pacman -Syu?
No, it does not. However, you can update AUR packages with an AUR helper like yaourt or yay. Note that, to my knowledge, yaourt is no longer being actively developed. But fear not. There are more or less identical substitutes available. I myself use pikaur. Yay also seems popular.
Really, really good tutorial. You covered a lot in easy to understand manner. But You dodged the big one: PKGBUILD. Wish You would do a tutorial on that subject.
I wanted to put Blustart linux on my cmoputer-- but can't do the package crap.. I'm NOT a command line person and can't memorize a bunch of code.. BUT i can make the software do everything I need to do -- except do the packages...

very concise, informative and detailed. I hope you will make more videos like this.
Bill Smith I agree. No rambling, no tangents, easy to read big fonts, and i3 leaves no distractions for your presentation
The best tutorial about Arch package managers I've seen.
This video should be a 'must watch' for every arch beginner.
Perfectly explained and very helpful.

Even though this is old, it still deserves a like
Excellent video, I’m 3 weeks in to my Linux journey and this has been very useful. Thank you
Best tutorial explaining the arch package managing system. Currently using netrunner rolling and this video really made my arch experience better! Cheers!
This was fantastic. You are amazing at explaining these concepts.
Comprehensive and relevant as of 2019. Good video.
Nicely done, found the information very helpful. Just installed my first Arch VM machine. Trying in on a VM before replacing Fedora 31 on my production machine. I'm well versed with apt and dnf, the pacman through me for a couple hours till I found your video. Gave you a big thumbs up!
As said, great tutorial. Wish there was more like this on youtube.
Can you make a video on making our own PKGBUILD file using a program not found in the AUR as an example.
Woooow Arch is amazing, i'm now dual booting Ubuntu with Antergos (i'm lazy), that AUR was the biggest reason
Nice video. I’m using Arch Linux in my mac for the past 1 month and I will never go back to OS X. Arch is my favorite distro.
Thank you! I learned a few more things today by watching your video this is very clearly explained with great examples...keep them coming please!!
Amazing Presentation. Please keep making videos
Such a great video that I blindly pressed subscribe without even knowing if you have any other videos :) Thank you!
Love your work, it's really helpful for me just get into Arch.
why arch is taking alot of time from me:
Open terminal to install something > type "sudo apt install PACKAGE" out of habit > think "aww crap, i dont have apt anymore" > install with pacman
This happens since WEEKS. Using Debian based distros for years really shows now :D
Great tutorial, subscribed. Please keep these videos coming.
Thank you for the great introduction to pacman and yaourt!
Really good video. it would be amazing if you do a series about Arch Linux.
Thank you! Made the topic clear.
Good, usefull video, thanks.
The best part is, seeing last slide "octetz"... I was like "hey, I've seem this name before".
it happens that i already subscribed to you, rss :)
Great Video! Would love to see more!
For those trying to install Yaourt, it is broken right now move to yay ( aur.archlinux.org/packages/yay ) instead, the process is the same and it works exactly as Yaourt.
aur.archlinux.org/yay.git
Great video! I hope you make more
You seem like a really nice person and the video is great!

You can also install yaourt with pacman instead of cloning the git repo
Would be cool if u added the part of editing a yaourt package before installing it.
Really nice video.
Very informative, thank you! I will definitely subscribe.
Hey, that's i3; I didn't even notice. That's what I'll use also
Kim That is exactly the purpose of i3. Not being noticed.
Yay Much Thanks

Really great video! Except, it's dmenu! not the i3 launcher
Awesome video , me like it
great video!
Great video! You help a loot :)

Great vid
best video

Awesome! Just really pissed off that they not only quit supporting 32 bit, but even removed all the 32 files from their repos. super. fucking. lame.
and, sry for calling you "dude" 🙄
great video !
