[arch-dev-public] kernel-headers missing in packages.txt
Hi did you change something in the last weeks, that kernel-headers is no more listed in packages.txt? this will break all ftp installs, just stumbled over it while trying to create ISO's with the ntfs bug fixed. i can recreate ISO's on sunday so would be cool if someone could look at the packages.txt issue. thanks greetings tpowa -- Tobias Powalowski Archlinux Developer & Package Maintainer (tpowa) http://www.archlinux.org tpowa@archlinux.org

So solve it! Man, I have seen 3 people complain about this issue and do 0 work to fix it. Not even try to track it down... This is maddening.

Hrm sorry, but i never touched the db scripts, i can do so, but i thought those who changed them, know them better than me. There is quite some stuff that needs to be done soon, like tons of rebuilds because of .so bumps that are pending, like noone wants to maintain important packages, like defining core repository and a non-free repository. It cannot be that stuff is delayed and everyone just waits for an other one to do it or that only some of us do the whole work. Also as Roman mentioned my inet access is not the best atm, i only have windows access and can do some stuff tomorrow evening, like those fixed ntfs Isos but if the main server is broken, all this ISO stuff is quite useless. I would like to call them 2007.08.01. It's just a ISO with new packages and the nasty ntfs bug is fixed and some other small things, like the Linuxtag ISOs earlier. greetings tpowa -- Ist Ihr Browser Vista-kompatibel?

# hack -- only Current's packages.txt goes in a "setup" subdir if [ "$reponame" = "current" ]; then mv packages.txt $ftppath/setup/packages.txt else mv packages.txt $ftppath/packages.txt fi this part of db-inc needs to be changed to have the -f option # hack -- only Current's packages.txt goes in a "setup" subdir if [ "$reponame" = "current" ]; then mv -f packages.txt $ftppath/setup/packages.txt else mv -f packages.txt $ftppath/packages.txt fi so please change this to solve this issue of overwriting packages.txt. thanks greetings tpowa -- Tobias Powalowski Archlinux Developer & Package Maintainer (tpowa) http://www.archlinux.org tpowa@archlinux.org

This was actually not the issue. cactus and I tracked it down today, with a hint from simo (thanks again). There is a cronjob that cleans up permissions on /home/ftp - it used to run on the following dirs: 0.8 extra unstable testing community So, a while back when we made 'current' a real dir, and got rid of the versioned symlinks, it broke the current repo. The problem followed to the core repo. It should be fixed now. Hopefully, a db script rewrite will be coming soon, and we can do away with issues like this. If not, I will make sure this is documented somewhere for future reference. For now this email is informational, so we all know that the permissions are kept in check by a cron job. Thanks, Aaron

Most of these directories I also added acls to. I will do that to the new ones now. In theory this should make the cron job unnecessary, but we'd left it on before too. Jason

I didn't see any ACLs when I was looking - it was the first thing I checked. Either way, some of us are going to setup a db script hackathon and get all the old crusty code out of there (I will send a list email when I figure it out). I wouldn't worry about those ACLs, in that case.

Yeah, I just checked too. I have a feeling that ACLs are lost when you chown something... I'll have to consider this when we look at the newer db scripts. Jason

Fixed... It seems kernel-headers got untagged for CURRENT and CURRENT-64. This must have happened during a patch cleanup process.
