Display AUR package version as part of --debug

[AdnanHodzic]

Hey @crian @yochananmarqos @marc0der @librewish

Number 1 question that gets asked in every reported issue/bug is which auto-cpufreq are you running? I've decided to add this option as part of --debug flag. However, since I don't use Arch/Manjaro/Garuda, do you have any suggestions what's the best way to output version of auto-cpufreq AUR if installed?

I pulled you in because I know you're using these, suggestions welcome!

Something like this? Probably needs some regex magic or something.

❯ pacman -Qi auto-cpufreq* | grep Version
Version         : 1.5.4.r4.gd062ca9-1

[AdnanHodzic]

Right, that's a good step forward. As this will output package version if AUR package has been installed. But currently it'll end up in this condition, if distros is detected as Arch based even package is not installed it will return back an error instead of package version.

It will also end up in this condition, if Arch based distro is detected even if user installed it using auto-cpufreq-installer (source code).

Hence, I'm asking is there a good way to test "if AUR package (auto-cpufreq) has been installed" first.

Pacman only shows what it installed
It will not show if auto-cpufreq is installed via
Installer
So there is no need to worry

[AdnanHodzic]

Right, to confirm. With logic that I have here, what will happen if Arch based user who installed auto-cpufreq using auto-cpufreq-installer (not pacman) runs --debug, will you/he get output from git commit?

Ended up installed Arch in VM to properly debug this problem, is part of 1.6.0 release.

Thank you @yochananmarqos and @librewish for your input

I just installed this (snap refresh) and noticed the following error in the --debug dump:

I'm seeing two issues here:

• attempting to query pacman for AUR package version when installed with snap
• the pacman binary does not seem accessible in this scope (probably due to running in snap)

[marc0der]

I've just submitted #173 to resolve this issue.

Thanks, changes are live as part of 1.6.1
