AUR broken? You're not alone.
ArchLinux updated the AUR API and the old URLs don't work anymore. This is a bit awkward, as your AUR helper now can't get access it and can't even update itself any longer. This means you will have to manually intervene to resolve this situation 😕
If you're using yay, here's a quick fix that patches your old binary:
sudo sed -i 's:rpc.php:rpc////:g' /usr/bin/yay
Synth Morxemplum
@fribbledom Ugh. This explains why "yay" isn't working >->

Apparently this was a bit of an accident, and they will roll out a release in the next hours that temporarily fixes this:

@fribbledom OMG you mean, they screwed up?!! I am seeing 10,000 Arch Linux users punching themselves in the groin, tears rolling down their faces! 😂
𝙰𝚕𝚎𝚡 :unverified:
@aismallard @fribbledom Is yay a machine code binary? Could also be a script.

@fribbledom using sed on a binary lol

The temporary fix is live now!
Many AUR helpers will still require an update to fix the situation permanently. Be prepared to updates your Arch systems within the next 30 days!

Temp fix!
