| Code: | | ** You can turn off tips with gentooNovice=0 in the config file. |
It does not work. I have a file /etc/update. In the file there is no "gentooNovice=0", but "novice=0". I tried putting "gentooNovice=0" but tips don't go. I already tried renaming the file to /etc/update.conf. Also tried placing the file to /etc/conf.d.
I use sys-apps/update-0.1.4.0_beta1

Thanks a lot. update-0.1.4.0_beta2 works just fine.

Oh man, that's awful! Sorry, looks like a problem in checkType(); we had a similar issue which i thought we fixed. Is it only with -vv (which seems really odd to me) or is it with standard -e as well?
-vv is more for troubleshooting an ebuild that doesn't work (it echoes all lines from the build, so it's not much different to running emerge, although still using the list from update.) It still needs to be fixed, ofc; we're meeting up later this evening to do a bit of work on --depclean so we'll look at it then. Sorry for inconvenience.
BTW if you can, please log into irc.freenode.org channel #friendly-coders to talk to us about fixing stuff, as it makes the whole process a lot quicker. My nick is igli (though I won't be there for another 5 or 6 hours today, I'm always there when I'm online.) |

Hi,
love your script.
I would like to see this feature added: after all the emerges run prelink -av automatically ( or maybe with an extra setting)
bye,

The error is with standard -e as well.
I'll try and meet up with you on IRC sometime this week. My nick is px on freenode.
thanks again! |

a word of warning.
if you have EMERGE_DEFAULT_OPTS set in your make.conf, be sure not to include "--quiet"
This fixed my error I was having above. |

It would be really nice if the script just chose to upgrade device-mapper before udev instead of defaulting to remove it.

Hmm it would do if device-mapper were being upgraded in the list to a newer version, before udev. As it's not in the list, it would still block udev by the time we come to install it.
For instance I get this (as we're still working on putting in mechanism for expat fix for next time.)
| Code: | ! There are blocking packages:
[blocks B ] <kde-base/kdesktop-3.5.6-r1 (is blocking kde-base/kdebase-kioslaves-3.5.7-r1)
[blocks B ] <=kde-base/kmail-3.5.6-r1 (is blocking kde-base/libkdepim-3.5.7-r1)
Upgrading kde-base/kdesktop to 3.5.7 from 3.5.5-r1 before emerge of kde-base/kdebase-kioslaves-3.5.7-r1
Upgrading kde-base/kmail to 3.5.7-r2 from 3.5.5-r2 before emerge of kde-base/libkdepim-3.5.7-r1
Toolchain- sys-kernel/linux-headers is being upgraded
This requires a rebuild of glibc afterwards which will be done by this script.
About to proceed (Y/n)?
|
Since kdesktop and kmail are being upgraded, the blocks will be overcome by the time we come to install kioslaves/libkdepim. |

These are the problems I run against in 0.1.4.0_beta2:
* if I do "update -vp <package>" I get this error | Code: | | /usr/local/bin/update: line 2478: helpV: command not found |
* this morning there was only 1 package to be updated and typing in "update" (which is an alias for "update -D") started the job immediately without asking me - not really how I like things to work :-/

Nice one, bunkacid; you said you'd wait for the next version, so I didn't put out a bugfix. Beta_2a is a really minor fix, and so the existing 2a will now be 2b (it has a much nicer interface for large resumes, which I think might make a good default for non-verbose use.) --depclean will be beta_3 and when that's all working nicely we'll put out a release.
Anyhow, it should work ok with --quiet in EMERGE_DEFAULT_OPTS now; it'll automatically set the -q option.

Yeah that makes sense. I had a look at http://www.gentoo.org/doc/en/prelink-howto.xml and it says it installs a daily cron script, but it would be better to do it at the end of the whole upgrade, glsa-check, depclean, revdep process imo. I don't know much about it: this topic talks about using symlinks -drv / before prelink -av but this bug says:
| 2007-01-21 -- jakub wrote: | | prelink doesn't work w/ KDE, we know about it, noone's maintaining prelink and noone's working on it, look for prelink alternatives instead. |
I'm guessing symlinks only needs to be run on install. Any info would be much appreciated, especially on usage of prelink.
| /etc/conf.d/prelink wrote: | # Change to
# PRELINK_NOEMER_CHECK_INTERVAL=0
# if you want to disable the portage database timestamp
# check (especially if you don't use portage
# exclusively to upgrade system libraries and/or binaries). |
seems to imply that there's no real need. Anyhow, let me know which options (-mR are in config and look good, R maybe for server use?) |

Isn't it better to use the total amount of packages that should be installed in the script?
Packages installed so far: 16 of 16. 7 remaining
Packages installed so far: 17 of 17. 6 remaining
Shouldn't it say
Packages installed so far: 16 of 23. 7 remaining
Packages installed so far: 17 of 23. 6 remaining
Notice the difference?

Heh, welp asked the same thing when he came over for GUK. The reason for that is, if any have failed it would say eg:
Packages installed so far: 14 of 16. 7 remaining
Packages installed so far: 15 of 17. 6 remaining
The xterm titlebar should show the information you're referring to. 16 of 23. 7 remaining is kinda insulting user intelligence though  I prefer the way it is now as you get more info and you quickly see how many packages are left when you glance at the window during a long emerge. I often haven't even noticed something has failed until I spot that the numbers don't match. (Then I scan for the fail list.)
| Quote: | | It is just a suggestion |
Heh, they're always welcome If you still thinks it would be more useful, I guess we could add it as a config var. TBH though we need to split this script up as it's getting kinda excessive |

Just running update without flags works like a charm but if I add the -s flag I get this result:

Do you have anything in EMERGE_DEFAULT_OPTS in make.conf? I didn't actually test the fix for --quiet, but if there's anything else (especially -u*) it'll bork. If you want that from update, the easiest way is to use alias update='update -u'
Other than that, nfc atm. |

Sorry but I do not set EMERGE_DEFAULT_OPTS at all in my make.conf I see if I have time to debug it a little more later on. |

I have run the script with the '-x' flag given to bash and belowe you can see a short transcript from that run. The problem seems to come from this line | Code: | | [[ $param ]] && param="-$param" |
at line number 234. I do not under stand what the extra -n comes from in since param is set to just -uDN. But i have to confess that I am not an bash guru.

That is just bash using the test whether $param is nonzero. [[ $param ]] is just the short form for [[ -n $param ]].

I have found the problem. First param is set to "-uDN" and then it calls checkFlags which ads another minus '-'. Either param should just be set to uDN or checkFlags has to check that if param is not empty that it does not already has an minus in front.
| Code: |
elif [[ $# -eq 1 && $1 = -* && ! $1 = *[^sqvpaFSCRM-]* ]]; then
target='world'
param='-uDN'
if [[ $1 = *[FSCRM]* ]]; then
doEmerge=0
target=[none]
fi
[[ $1 = *M* && $1 = *[SCR]* ]] && msg 'M covers all maintenance options'
checkFlags "$1"

This is only for shortcut usage (ie no target, so implicit world) and only options have nothing to do with tree (ie no -uDN required.) If you specify world it will only use the options you choose.

Hmm - it happens to me on one (of three) system that if one package fails to compile/install the chain seemed to be borked ... | Code: | !! media-gfx/splashutils-1.5.1.1 failed to install.
! Failed so far: media-gfx/splashutils-1.5.1.1
Checking dependencies..done
** update: Dependency Error - media-video/dvdrip-0.98.8 requires [0.98.6] which is not in the install list! |
It happened t ome quite often the last days on this system because splashutils does not build on it but I'm not sure whether the same happens as well on the other systems ... is this a known issue to you guys?
