RE: ver 3.1, 32 bit, EXT4 partition
Hi,
USM GUI traps 'Missing database files.' error, pointing to slacky repo:

Code: Select all

usm -u all
sh-4.2# usm -u all
alien was updated 3112 seconds ago. Skipping.
salix was updated 3103 seconds ago. Skipping.
 Starting slacky database update

gzip: /var/usm/slacky/CHECKSUMS.md5.gz: unexpected end of file
          

=============[code]

WARNING! WARNING! WARNING! WARNING! WARNING!

One or more errors occurred while usm was running:

Could not decompress: CHECKSUMS.md5.gz

==============================================================================
sh-4.2#
[/code]
Also, CLI USM traps this problem:

Code: Select all

guest@porteus:~$ sudo usm -u slacky
Password:

 You need the following programs to continue:  
installpkg
removepkg
guest@porteus:~$ 
A search for these modules finds nothing!

This problem is not unique to a single micro, any HELP please??
thx

Hi,
Now down to the 'unexpected end of file' hiccup:

Problem appears intermittantly.
