USM bug reports

[brokenman]

Wonder if it's for the same reason there is no 'none' option any more in the non-GUI version.

Nothing has changed there. The 'None' option is only available when using: usm -d /var/log/packages/package-name

Slaxmax can you check your version. The output from: usm -d /var/log/packages/package-name
should be something like below.

 Press [r] to remove packages, [q] to quit, or enter to start downloading.

Also this version of xaralx is very old. Back from slackware 13.37. In any case, when I hit 'r' and deselect an item and then continue it exits in the same way without downloading. I will investigate it tonight. Thanks.

EDIT:
I have updated the github source code with this regression fix. When I fixed the deselection for the standard package get I broke it for system deps. Thanks again.

Sorry brokenman,

I just want to inform about the extra deps require to start Pitivi due to it is a Python program.

Here is the complete deps require:-
gst-plugins-base-0.10.36-x86_64-2.xzm
gst-python-0.10.22-x86_64-2sl.xzm

@brokenman

Sorry my fault.
I tested in porteus 3.0-RC1.
The upgrade "usm -u usm" did not work right, I think something's left of the old package. I removed the old USM installation in xorg module and installed last usm txz.
Now is ok.

tks

[brokenman]

Yes the version included in 3.0 did not properly remove the old downloaded package in /tmp/usm. This has been addressed.

Thanks cttan, I have updated the file on the server now. pitivi works nicely but requires the h264 decoder for many files.

[Ed_P]

WOW!!! Major savings in the save.dat file.

Nice job brokenman.

I did find that clicking on the taskbar's USM icon then clicking on the USM window's menu Updates item and the Update USM option still produces a Message window stating "No database updates were found." I thought that was fixed in 3.1.6.

BTW It would be nice if the installpkg app didn't error out with msgs like these:

Code: Select all

guest@porteus:~$ installpkg /tmp//usm-latest-0.0-noarch-1.txz

rm: cannot remove '/var/log/setup/tmp/tmpsize2820': Permission denied

when it needs root access to run. A prompt to logon to root would be nice or at least a msg indicating root access was needed to run.

I'm not sure what these installpkg error msgs represent.

 You are using USM version:  3.1.6

But the update seems to have taken.

I wasn't aware of this bug or perhaps I missed the report. I just checked and this message is indeed presented when a user clicks on update USM. Thanks, I will address it now.

BTW It would be nice if the installpkg app didn't error out with msgs like these

The installpkg program resides in /sbin and should not even be available to guest. (as root you can type which installpkg to see)

I am also not sure why you received those messages (not error messages) when running installpkg. Nothing serious and nothing related to USM. It appears to be a result of installpkg running ldconfig after installation of a package. Do you get the same output when just running (as root): ldconfig

When you reply I will move this message into 'bug reports'.

Someting is funky right there. The directory /sbin is not in the $PATH of a guest user so you shouldn't be seeing it. If you are you have a rather large security hole. The only place searched when using 'which' as guest should be shown by typing (as guest): echo $PATH

Some bugs:

Code: Select all

ln: target ‘/mnt/data/anydata/packages-x86/calibre-1.48.0/ilmbase-1.0.3-i486-1.txz’ is not a directory
ilmbase-1.0.3-i486-1.txz exists. Symlink created.

I think any package should be downloaded to STORAGE and subdirectories should contain only links if MAKELINKS=true is used.

I just let usm update all databases. What I realized it that all folders in /var/usm are smaller than they used to be. They all lack the MANIFEST files. My last backup of usm-databases that had these have been from 2014-08-18:

i would suggest you to upgrade to 3.1 rc1 which has usm-3.1.7 by default and check if your problems are still there.
