How to install mit-scheme in Arch Linux?












1















It seems to be available here.



But when I try the following command:



$ sudo pacman -S mit-scheme


I get the following:



error: target not found: mit-scheme


I've also tried with mit-scheme-git (from here), since that seems more recently updated, but I got the same result.



Is there some other package I should be installing? Or do I need to do it without using the package manager?

          Update 1/28/19:



          The package has been added to the community repository of Arch. It lives here. It can be installed with a simple sudo pacman -S mit-scheme.





          Original answer



          That package doesn't seem to be available in any of the default repositories.



          To install it navigate to the AUR page (https://aur.archlinux.org/packages/mit-scheme/) and click "Download Snapshot".



          Once you have the tar of the snapshot untar it.



          tar -xf yourfile.tar


          Then run the command makepkg on the PKGBUILD located within the extracted archive.



          makepkg PKGBUILD


          That should leave you with a pkg that you can install using the



          pacman -U pkg-goes-here.pkg command. 


          Yaourt is also a good way to download software not available in a repository.
