Hi there.

The Arch Linux build image present in builds.sr.ht is currently not
getting past the setup process. It attempts to summon `yay`, but fails
due to a missing shared library. Here's an example of a failed build to
prove what I mean.

	https://builds.sr.ht/~nixgoat/job/1328696

The build manifest only provides a single dependency, so I'm discarding
it as the culprit, but let me know if I'm wrong.

Best,

I don't know why but pacman/pacutils where updated and libalpm.so.14
(where yay is linked against) is replaced with libalpm.so.15.  Most
probably you can just "sudo ln -s /usr/lib/libalpm.so
/usr/lib/libalpm.so.14" to make yay work again.  Then you can just wait
until yay is upgraded to work with the newer libalpm version.

Bye,

Probably related to the pacman upgrade [1]. An issue [2] has been
opened in the yay repository.

The yay binary package needs to be rebuilt to link with updated arch packages.

I have deployed a new Arch image which should address the problem.
