Paru is a feature-packed AUR helper for Arch Linux, wrapping pacman to search, install, and upgrade packages from the Arch User Repository with minimal interaction. It supports PKGBUILD review, -git package tracking, and configurable behavior via paru.conf.
Use cases
- install AUR packages on Arch Linux
- upgrade AUR packages alongside pacman updates
- search and interactively install packages
- review PKGBUILDs before building
- download and inspect a package's PKGBUILD
- build and install a PKGBUILD from a local directory
- track -git package updates
When to choose
- you use Arch Linux or an Arch-based distro and want a full-featured AUR helper
- you want a pacman-like interface for AUR operations
- you need PKGBUILD review and editing workflows
- you want automatic tracking of -git/devel package updates
When to avoid
- you are not on an Arch-based system
- you prefer an official, officially supported package tool
- you want a GUI package manager
