[system] pacman-5.0.2-11 update

With the update to  pacman-5.0.2-11, please make sure you update your /etc/pacman.conf.

Your updated pacman.conf should look like this in the repository sections:

Code: [Select]
# The gremlins repositories are disabled by default. To enable, uncomment the
# repo name header and Include lines. You can add preferred servers immediately
# after the header, and they will be used before the default mirrors.

#[gremlins]
#Include = /etc/pacman.d/mirrorlist

[system]
Include = /etc/pacman.d/mirrorlist

[world]
Include = /etc/pacman.d/mirrorlist

#[galaxy-gremlins]
#Include = /etc/pacman.d/mirrorlist

[galaxy]
Include = /etc/pacman.d/mirrorlist

# If you want to run 32 bit applications on your x86_64 system,
# enable the lib32 repositories as required here.

#[lib32-gremlins]
#Include = /etc/pacman.d/mirrorlist

#[lib32]
#Include = /etc/pacman.d/mirrorlist

# An example of a custom package repository.  See the pacman manpage for
# tips on creating your own repositories.
#[custom]
#SigLevel = Optional TrustAll
#Server = file:///home/custompkgs

#[testing]
#Include = /etc/pacman.d/mirrorlist-arch

[extra]
Include = /etc/pacman.d/mirrorlist-arch

[community]
Include = /etc/pacman.d/mirrorlist-arch

#[multilib-testing]
#Include = /etc/pacman.d/mirrorlist-arch

#[multilib]
#Include = /etc/pacman.d/mirrorlist-arch

Are the "gremlins" the equivalent of "testing"? If I enable "gremlins" and "galaxy-gremlins" am I running Artix testing Like I am now?? ???


Best regards.
We should try to be kind to everyone.....we are all fighting some sort of battle.

Yes, [gremlins], [galaxy-gremlins] and [lib32-gremlins] are the new equivalents to [testing], [community-testing] and [multilib-testing]  in arch.

We gonna drop the artix *-testing repos.

What is the status of "packages" and "packages-galaxy" repo's are they development only?

Re: [system] pacman-5.0.2-11 update

that's why testing is empty!

I see galaxy, world, system and lib32 all now have a "depreciated repo" tag!

Operational.

Correct. Hence we use the new git repos and along with them new binary gremlins repos.
goblins is not recommended to use, its purely a build related repo for toolchain and such.
Goblins is the artix equivalent to staging in arch linux.

 Well adding the "packages" and "packages-galaxy" repo's to pacman.conf does not work.

What are you talking about? These are git repos with pkgbuilds.
Just make sure your pacman.conf is updated.

I added the below to your pacman.conf in post #1 and as i say it does not work, is there something wrong?
Code: [Select]
[packages]
Include = /etc/pacman.d/mirrorlist

[packages-galaxy]
Include = /etc/pacman.d/mirrorlist

Simple answer:
Yes there is!

Complicated answer:
In this case you misunderstood.
There are 2 kinds of repositories for Artix.
1. Repositories which are used to distribute prebuilt packages to users (you can access them via pacman)
Which are: gremlins, system, world, galaxy-gremlins, galaxy, lib32-gremlins, lib32. (these are used by pacman)
These repositories mirror structure which is using Archlinux
- https://github.com/artix-linux/system/issues/70#issuecomment-362077590
http://mirror1.artixlinux.org/repos/

2. Git repositories which are used to store PKGBUILD from which are the packages built
Which are: packages and packages-galaxy. (these are used by developers)
- https://github.com/artix-linux/packages
- https://github.com/artix-linux/packages-galaxy

 >:(  I 'm a little upset with myself as I didn't see this thread until today. I was wondering why I was getting 404 errors for the testing and world-testing. RIF reading is fundamental . Anyway I updated the pacman.conf so I should see those errors anymore.
edit: After updaying pacman.conf this is the error I'm getting
:: Synchronizing package databases...

It should be error on your side, so show your pacman.conf and we might be able to help you.
