[HOWTO] figure out if you have a pure x86_64 system

HOWTO figure out if I do indeed have a pure x86_64 system.
My system: Porteus 5.0rc1 XFCE
While doing so I found one interesting inconsistency. :D

Code: Select all

# ls /var/log/packages |wc
    546     546   14051
That tells me that currently I have 546 packages installed.

Code: Select all

# ls /var/log/packages | grep x86_64|wc
    526     526   13471
Of the 546 526 are indeed x86_64

Code: Select all

ls /var/log/packages | grep noarch|wc
     19      19     554
and 19 are of noarch (e.g. binary-less scripts and such)

Lets look what the missing one is about?
Good that grep can do an "inverted match". :)

Code: Select all

# ls /var/log/packages | grep -Ev "x86_64|noarch"|wc
      1       1      26
# ls /var/log/packages | grep -Ev "x86_64|noarch"
mate-search-tool-1.20.1-2
Once again my fw script comes in handy. I posted it already on here. (Aside from error display, the main line is just file $(which "$1") 2>/dev/null) So, let's see if the mate-search-tool is architecture-less or is of x86_64.

Code: Select all

# fw fw
/usr/local/bin/fw: Bourne-Again shell script, ASCII text executable
# fw mate-search-tool
/usr/bin/mate-search-tool: ELF 64-bit LSB executable, x86-64, version 1 (SYSV), dynamically linked, interpreter /lib64/ld-linux-x86-64.so.2, stripped
So… seems /var/lib/pkgtools/packages/mate-search-tool-1.20.1-2 should be called /var/lib/pkgtools/packages/mate-search-tool-1.20.1-2-x86_64-1 since it is indeed a x86_64 package.

But aside from finding that mate-search-tool inconsistency, I indeed have figured out that all programs installed are either of x86_64 (527 of 546 are, since mate-search-tool is also of x86_64) and 19 are of type noarch.

So yes, mission accomplished: I have indeed a pure x86_64 system.

Interesting. My x86_64 Porteus 5.0rc1 lxde test system shows:

Code: Select all

guest@porteus:~$ ls /var/log/packages | wc
      1       1      39
guest@porteus:~$ ls /var/log/packages | grep x84_64 |wc
      0       0       0
guest@porteus:~$ ls /var/log/packages | grep noarch |wc
      0       0       0
guest@porteus:~$ ls /var/log/packages | grep -Ev "x84_64|noarch"|wc
      1       1      39
guest@porteus:~$ ls /var/log/packages | grep -Ev "x84_64|noarch"
flashplayer-plugin-32.0.0.303-x86_64-1
guest@porteus:~$ 
:hmmm:

In my system, /var/log/packages is a symlink:

Code: Select all

# file /var/log/packages
/var/log/packages: symbolic link to ../lib/pkgtools/packages
Maybe one module or another overwrote that symlink and created /var/log/packages as folder?

Then we can consider that module as broken.

Just check what /var/lib/pkgtools/packages instead of /var/log/packages would result in. And if indeed on your system /var/log/packages is a folder.

Please look into the module that contains flashplayer-plugin-32.0.0.303-x86_64-1 if that is the one that overwrote the symlink of /var/log/packages to /var/lib/pkgtools/packages .

any module made with porteus-4.0 (that is packaged in slackware format) will have it's package info in /var/log/packages(a dir)
if used in 5.0* , (in which /var/log/packages is symlinked to /var/lib/pkgtools/packages) the symlink will be overwritten with that^ directory..
presumably, if another 5.0* built module is subsequently activated, it would then overwrite it with a symlink again...
the reverse is true for a module built for 5.0* activated in 4.0* ..

So, when the path got got overwritten by a symlink… what happens to the files in path? Are they gone/invisible for the system for the time being?

I presume both searching in /var/log/packages and /var/lib/pkgtools/packages is no valid option for a simple fix when 4.0 and 5.0 modules got mixed up…

Interesting. Somewhat scary even. I assumed a module is a module and copied the flashplayer module from my 4.0 system to my 5.0 system. You're saying I need to have your browser script build the flashplayer on the 5.0 system.

Unless your existing installation script already contains the code

install script. Now's your chance. :^)

Would you like to add this stuff to the existing install script and
remove the symbolic links ([y]es, [n]o)? y


Removing symbolic links:

removed './usr/share/pixmaps/flash-player-properties.png'
removed './usr/lib64/mozilla'

Updating your ./install/doinst.sh...

This next step is optional - you can set the directories in your package
to some sane permissions. If any of the directories in your package have
special permissions, then DO NOT reset them here!

Would you like to reset all directory permissions to 755 (drwxr-xr-x) and
directory ownerships to root.root ([y]es, [n]o)? n

Interesting. Somewhat scary even. I assumed a module is a module and copied the flashplayer module from my 4.0 system to my 5.0 system. You're saying I need to have your browser script build the flashplayer on the 5.0 system.
it's just a change that occured in the slackware package tools between 4.0 and 5.0, only affecting the package information files, nothing else.
if you wanted to, you could manually fix a module by extracting it, moving var/log/packages to /var/lib/pkgtools/ and recompressing it.

And this is what I got.
presume you chose n at "Would you like to create a Porteus module? [y/n]" , hence the output being a package.
have done some changes to the messages to be relevent to module or package output. thanks

My 50rc Openbox system with a flashplayer module built on the 50rc system results:

Code: Select all

~$ ls /var/log/packages | wc
    554     554   14103
~$ ls /var/log/packages | grep x86_64 |wc
    530     530   13411
~$ ls /var/log/packages | grep noarch |wc
     23      23     664
~$ ls /var/log/packages | grep -Ev "x86_64|noarch"|wc
      1       1      28
~$ ls /var/log/packages | grep -Ev "x86_64|noarch"

I think I responded y to that prompt and in fact I even rebooted and reran the Flashplayer Update function a 2nd time and got the same results. I'll let you know how a rerun with your changes works out later.
