A question about Fenrir on Arch linux

[Linux for blind general discussion]

If you're in archlinux, first do man pacman.
Next as root do pacman -Ss yay
yay is the installer you use to get access to the aur repository and you
run that in your user directory not root.
If you install yay, do man yay.
