swapping between changes and no changes cheatcode
Posted: 16 Jan 2016, 06:51
Longer title a suggeston for those with slow internet who want to swap between changes cheatcode and boot up to a no changes cheatcode.....and not have too much extra installed.
change sda3 to where ever you keep or load stuff please
I create a new folder /mnt/sda3/1bak/cache
I then copy below files from /mnt/sda3/porteus/changes/var/cache/pacman/pkg to that new dir
put into a scrollable code box rather than a quote box
Before I attempt to do any gui updates I next do this as root
Before I attempt to do any gui updates part two, done as root
Finally I can use the gui to see what remaining bits I have missed due to dependencies or the above list is out-of-date
There is nothing stopping you from using mc terminal manager and having the left pane is the changes dir and the right pane as your cache dir and comparing them from time to time.
Then when you see there is a new update sitting in changes versus your old cache you simple overwrite the package.....YMMV
