| Post subject: | [SOLVED] upgrading to 7.1 linhes-scripts package not found |
Ok, I am sure I am doing something stupid so please bear with me. I am pretty good with linux but not that great with Arch. My LinHES box is the only arch box I own. In any event, I am currently on 6.04 Code: $ cat /etc/LinHES-release LinHES R6.04.00 (Laundrymat) When I do sudo pacman -Sy linhes-scripts I get: Code: :: Synchronizing package databases... downloading core.db.tar.gz... downloading extra.db.tar.gz... linhes-scripts package not found, searching for group... error: 'linhes-scripts': not found in sync db my pacman.conf looks like this: Code: [core]
Server = http://linhes.org/repo/i686/core #Server = http://knoppmyth.net/repo/i686/R6/core [extra] Server = http://linhes.org/repo/i686/extra #Server = http://knoppmyth.net/repo/i686/R6/extra I'm sure it is something stupid, but any help is appreciated. Thanks, DoTheDog |

Looks like you did change your repository per http://mysettopbox.tv/phpBB2/viewtopic.php?t=22304 Unless it doesn't like the comment line below. |

tscholl, thanks for the response. I had the same thought about commenting out the lines. So I tried removing them and no change. Is there anything obvious that I am missing? Dothedog |

So it looks like there is a linhes-scripts-7-20-i686.pkg.tar.xz in /repo/i686/core. and when I do a pacman -Q linhess-scripts I get Code: $ sudo pacman -Q linhes-scripts
Password: linhes-scripts 1-77 Any ideas why it won't update? Anywhere else I can look? DoTheDog |

loading package data... checking dependencies... error: failed to prepare transaction (could not satisfy dependencies) :: linhes-scripts: requires screen So what is "sccreen" and how do I get some

Ok, I may have a bigger problem. When I do sudo pacman -Sy screen I get the same thing: Code: sudo pacman -Sy screen
:: Synchronizing package databases... downloading core.db.tar.gz... downloading extra.db.tar.gz... screen package not found, searching for group... error: 'screen': not found in sync db Also, when I do a locate core.db.tar.gz it returns nothing. Where are the db files supposed to downoad to? Any ideas why it doesn't actually download? or I can't find it? DoTheDog [edit] I just looked in /var/lib/pacman/sync/core and extra and the directories are empty, is that right? or am I missing something? [edit2] Also /vr/log/pacman.log only says : synchronizing package lists |

Ok, I feel a little silly. I just had to add linhes.org to a whitelist to my content filter...I'm using dansguardian and it was blocking it. |

More of a note to myself, but after opening the exception in the content filter, I had to uncomment: Code: XferCommand = /usr/bin/wget --passive-ftp -c -O %o %u
for it to work. |

Hi, I am facing the very same error message : Quote: error: 'linhes-scripts': not found in sync db running the same LinHES version on my MythBox: Quote: $ cat /etc/LinHES-release LinHES R6.04.00 (Laundrymat) My /etc/pacman.conf being tuned to the right repositories: Quote: My 4G/HSPA mobile ISP, which the MythBox is connected with, is blocking all incoming IP connexions, with no way to workaround the barring; would that prevents Pacman from getting packages downloaded from Linhes repositories ? I hardly believe that Pacman does require ports to be opened for incoming traffic in order to complete its tasks. Nevertheless, your note Quote: XferCommand = /usr/bin/wget --passive-ftp -c -O %o %u makes me consider that as a potential issue. Thanks. |

Two months later, I gave a second try to upgrade my LinHES box from R6.04. The error we talked about here vanished, with nothing on my side I might have done clever to work around it. Same ISP, same LinHES box; I just typed once again sudo pacman -Sy linhes-scripts. The issue is solved, with no clear understanding about what went wrong first. |
