Installation: Arch Linux

This page describes how to install Sup on an up-to-date Arch Linux system.

Install system packages

Install prerequisite packages by running:

pacman -S base-devel ruby-erb

The base-devel group contains Ruby, and rubygems.

Install sup via rubygems

This should be easy:

gem install sup

If you run into errors, particularly getting stuck on building the xapian-ruby native extension, you may find it helpful to install xapian-ruby first:

gem install xapian-ruby
gem install sup

Alternative install by AUR helper

paru/yay/other -S sup
