Guys

When installing packages into an archroot with the '-I' option to makechrootpkg is there any way to also pass the '--noconfirm' option to pacman? I have tried a couple of different ways to pass it after the -I option, but so far it is a no go. I'm trying to automate the trinity build in an archroot, but having to confirm each install after the module build is preventing this. What say the experts?

You're doing this incorrectly. Setup a repo that is reachable in the chroot then

( sudo /usr/sbin/mkarchroot -u ${_chroot}/root 2>&1 | tee ${_date}build.log && exit ${PIPESTATUS} ) ( sudo /usr/sbin/makechrootpkg -c -r ${_chroot} 2>&1 | tee -a ${_date}build.log && exit ${PIPESTATUS} )

The first mkarchroot updates the chroot system and the second builds the package, when they are are built you are ready to install to the host system. I do not recommend installing the trinity packages to the chroot, the PKGBUILD file should pull them in automagically if it is written correctly.

See my automated trinity build system for pointers. I wrap the whole thing in a Makefile which builds the entire trinity desktop ( if needed ). $ make trinity is all that is then needed.

Thank you Baho! -- David C. Rankin, J.D.,P.E.

Hello...

I am building a private repository (myrep) I put all the packages, I build using PKGBUILD and /var/abs/tree. and saved it on an internet server that can be acessed by using http.

Is there a way to build the db and files in the repository, in a way pacman -Syu can update my archlinux???   or pacman just do not use them???

Thanks

I read the document, it explains how to mount a repo using nfs on local servers, that is not I want to I need to build a repo using http, on remote servers, and use the command pacman -Syu to update all the archlinux...

So you need an http server (common sense is also valid)

for what I see, I need to go to the pacman source and see how it is done...

Or try to explore yourself how to do it.

I use FreeBSD,

I really doubt about it. and in BSD it is all documented,  in every detail, I am

having some dificulties using linux    Even if arch linux is the best one, the documentation is missing from some points...  for example: how pacman chooses what needs to  be updated from the repo sources...

That's explained, even on pacman.conf ..

If the solution is to go to the pacman source, no problem... I just asked the list in the case someone has done it before...

The solution is to read a lot, you still missing some valuable information.

You can use repo-add and repo-remove commands to modify pacman-repo-dbs then just add the server to pacman.conf

[myrepo] Server = http://myserver.fi/arch/repo

you want to put that over the other entries if you build packages that are also found from core/extra/community so that the get fech from there instead from the offical repos. -- (\_ /) copy the bunny to your profile (0.o ) to help him achieve world domination.
