`clist` deprecated in chocolatey v2

[aetonsi]

Hi,
chocolatey v2 is now available. One of its breaking changes is:

Remove deprecated Chocolatey shims (chocolatey, cinst, clist, cpush, cuninst, cup) - see #2642.

and also

Change behavior of choco list to be local only - see #158.

So both clist <anything> and choco list -lo don't work anymore.

The command is simply choco list now.
A check with choco --version is needed i think, because if i'm not mistaken choco list without arguments also includes remote packages, in choco v1

---

have a nice day

What's the behaviour when we type choco list -l in Chocolatey v2?

[AlexKari]

this is easily fixed by substituting the line 875
$chocopkg = (& clist -l)[-1].Split(' ')[0] - 1
with this
$chocopkg = (& choco list)[-1].Split(' ')[0] - 1

What's the behaviour when we type choco list -l in Chocolatey v2?

> choco list -l
Chocolatey v2.0.0
Invalid argument -l. This argument has been removed from the list command and cannot be used.

this is easily fixed by substituting the line 875 $chocopkg = (& clist -l)[-1].Split(' ')[0] - 1 with this $chocopkg = (& choco list)[-1].Split(' ')[0] - 1

choco list without -lo in chocolatey v1 lists all of the available packages (uses remote sources), not the locally installed ones

> choco list
Chocolatey v1.4.0
Using the list command with remote sources is deprecated and will be made
to only list locally installed packages in v2.0.0. Use the search, or find,
command to find packages on remote sources (such as the Chocolatey Community
Repository).

I'm using chocolatey 2.0.0 and I don't have clist command in path.

[aetonsi]

because it doesn't exist anymore

[SliceTheDuck]

this has been fixed in april just never pushed to scoop etc.

[audacenoire]

Do I have to fix the source code manually until the new version is pushed?

[SliceTheDuck]

You could build it from the repo or replace it yes, once you replaced it unless you updated or redownload it(when you compile yourself this ain't Gon happen) it stays fixed

Remove the -l

[Windos]

There is a PR open (#191) regarding the -l/--local-only option.

I've suggested a change to that PR which will solve the syntax difference between Chocolatey CLI 2.x and prior versions.

[rashil2000]

It would be helpful if y'all could help test PR #191
