[arch-releng] pacman.conf.{i686,x86_64} ignored by archiso?
in the releng env (http://projects.archlinux.org/users/dieter/releng.git/tree/) it seems the pacman.conf.{i686,x86_64} files are now being ignored. (i enabled testing in there but it's not used) Frankly I don't even know/remember how this ever worked, I can't find a reference to these files anywhere. How does one control which pacman.conf archiso must use during building of the arch environment it puts on the isos? Dieter

I do not know about how these scripts works, the only thing that I can say is about archiso: build.sh (wrapper to mkarchiso) does not have a parameter to set a pacman.conf, so mkarchiso by default will use /etc/pacman.conf. Can you point me where is supposed to be used these files in releng-scripts? I can not found any references in the tree. -- Gerardo Exequiel Pozzi \cos^2\alpha + \sin^2\alpha = 1

exactly, that's what I said. I don't know where these files are ever used. They should be used when building the iso's.

Yes, never used neither in the age of Makefile instead of build.sh. At some point we used a local copy of pacman.conf in overlay (unmodified from pacman package when mkarchroot does not support NOCOPY)

Weird. sure? But think that these files are never used, because: They are out-of-date (compared to newer pacman.conf) -> There are no "SigLevel" -> Default "SigLevel" is used, that is "Optional TrustedOnly" by pacman-4 -> without manual interaction pacman will not work. -> no ISOs. But we have ISOs all times :) Or I am missing something? -- Gerardo Exequiel Pozzi \cos^2\alpha + \sin^2\alpha = 1

these files date back to back when Gerhard and I were working on the env. I.e. multiple years ago. At some point, they must have been used for something.

So finally is there any iso build with testing repo enabled? - Keshav
