@ngoonee
It works. thanks.

Xyne · 2010-09-18 11:24:13

If you enable the PatchDir then you can create a patch directly at the PKGBUILD prompt.

When it prompts you to inspect/edit the PKGBUILD, [ b]ack it up, [e]dit it, then [d]iff it to create a patch. It also works for the install file. If you need to patch other files then it might be possible to create them directly in the PatchDir and use AutoPatch, but I don't actually remember if I implemented that or not.

I'll add a section about creating patches to the FAQ.

@Xyne
It seems that "AutoPatch" can't work. (I ' ve added $pkgname to "Autopatch" section)

Xyne · 2010-09-18 12:37:54

Post your config, the path to the patch, and the patch itself.

cap_sensitive · 2010-09-18 12:54:51

config (patch is located in $PatchDir/aur/kernel26-bfs) :

Sorry, it was my mistake. Autopatching was only applied to "trusted" PKGBUILDs (i.e. ones that the user is not prompted to edit).

It should be fixed in perl-xyne-arch 2010.09.18.1-1.

cap_sensitive · 2010-09-18 13:35:56

@Xyne
thanks! that is really a good news to me.

I just tried my editor line and I'm still getting the same error:

@jdarnold
Try the latest version of perl-xyne-arch from my site and let me know if it works.

jdarnold · 2010-09-20 19:26:04

Yay, that works! Thx again for all your hard work!

cap_sensitive · 2010-09-21 11:08:38

@Xyne
Autopatch still can't work properly for me:

@cap_sensitive
Try perl-xyne-arch>=2010.09.21.1-1 (get it from my repo) and let me know if that works. Make sure that you either remove or reset the permissions of the build directory first.

cap_sensitive · 2010-09-21 12:12:31

@Xyne
Problem solved.
Thanks!

I'm expecting this to be a user error, but it's the first time I hit an error using bauerbill - which has so far been excellent for me.
I'm trying to install android-sdk from AUR, on a 32bit system

Here's my command call:

 sudo bauerbill --aur --build-as skanky -S AUR/android-sdk

I also tried it without the "AUR/" bit as well, as that was recently added after reading some recommendation somewhere on the forum.

There is no configuration file.

Firstly, it tries to resolve the 64bit dependencies - this may not be bauerbill's fault, obviously and as it gives me an option to ignore them, I just do. So no issue there, just informational.

The result is:

--> Switching to pacman: '/usr/bin/pacman --config /etc/pacman.conf -S android-sdk"
error: 'android-sdk': could not find or read package

I'm at the latest version (have upgraded and Xyne's repo is in my pacman.conf).
Anyone got any idea what I've done wrong?

EDIT: I've just managed to install something else (hnb) from AUR using Bauerbill. So there must be something about android-sdk.

@skanky
It's due to the limitations of the Bash parser. Remove the line beginning with:

[ "$CARCH" = 'x86_64' ] && depends=

If you enable the PatchDir, then you can [ b]ackup the PKGBUILD at the prompt, [e]dit it and then [d]iff it to create a patch that you can apply later when rebuilding it (use AutoPatch to automate it).

Excellent, the manual edit worked, as expected.
I shall apply do the patch stuff over the weekend. Hadn't seen that before and that should solve another issue I had with a different package. One of those "must sort this sometime" ones that never gets sorted. Now I know how, I'll actually get it done.

Many thanks, and for the quickness of the response, too.

Hi Xyne:

Part 1:
If auto patch failed (eg. the PKGBUILD changed so that the patch can't be applied anymore), then I got an error:

--> Searching for AUR packages...
--> Loading AUR taurball data...
Can't locate object method "pretty_warn" via package "Xyne::Arch::Bauerbill" at /usr/share/perl5/vendor_perl/Xyne/Arch/Bauerbill.pm line 2865.

and bauerbill terminated.

I think it's better to "restore" the default PKGBUILD and leave the user to decide what should do next.

Part 2:
If I install firefox-pgo from AUR, bauerbill can't resolve the line:

_xvfb="$(pacman -Qqo /usr/bin/Xvfb 2>/dev/null || pacman -Sp --print-format %n xorg-server-xvfb 2>/dev/null || echo xorg-server-xvfb)"

error message:

--> resolving $(pacman -Qqo /usr/bin/Xvfb 2>/dev/null || pacman -Sp --print-format %n xorg-server-xvfb 2>/dev/null || echo xorg-server-xvfb)... unresolvable

WARNING: unresolved dependencies: firefox-pgo -> $(pacman -Qqo /usr/bin/Xvfb 2>/dev/null || pacman -Sp --print-format %n xorg-server-xvfb 2>/dev/null || echo xorg-server-xvfb) (not found)
:: Do you want to ignore the above packages for this operation? [Y/n]

update:
I read the posts above, It seems that the problem is due to the bash parser. If that, I think I' ve known the work around.

thanks.

Part 1: It terminated because of the error, which itself was due to a misspelling ("pretty_warn" instead of "pretty_warning"). I've fixed it (in perl-xyne-arch) and pushed it to [community]. It should just display a warning and leave the file unchanged if the patch cannot be applied.

Part 2: It is indeed due to the Bash parser.

i have been using bauerbill for a while, just lately came across a problem.
when i'm issuing "sudo bauerbill -S <somepackage> --aur --cpan", it detects which packages to download, etc.., but when it starts downloading, the download simply hangs!, by hangs i mean, it won't even download 1 byte.
if i take the URL from the pkgbuilds and use "aria2c <url>" then it downloads, but from bauerbill it's just stands there and not moving.
i have updated everything to the latest.

Xyne · 2010-10-03 18:41:27

@Infin1ty
It works here. What packages are you trying to install from CPAN?
Have you changed the default Aria2Args?

I tried installing perl-jmx4perl for example, "sudo bauerbill -S perl-jmx4perl --aur --cpan"

I haven't changed anything regarding Aria2Args, it does not work on both of my laptops running arch.

Xyne · 2010-10-04 17:54:14

@Infin1ty
For whatever reason, aria2c fails to download the files in the metalink.

Run the following to create the metalink:

bauerbill -S --cpan perl-jmx4perl --trust-cpan --save-metalink test.metalink

Then run

aria2c  -M test.metalink -l aria2.log --log-level=debug

to generate a log file. Send both to the aria2c dev to see what he has to say about it (he's friendly and responds quickly... tell him I said hi).

It might be worth mentioning that aria2c is able to download those files directly with "aria2c <url 1> <url 2>...", so it seems to be an internal error in the way it handles metalinks (maybe the redirection is throwing it off... I can see the lights on my switch blinking so it is interacting with the network).

Hey I have a strange problem. When I use group name to install things from it; even if I specify which packages to install when Bauerbill goes to pacman, it goes from installing the packages I chose to install to installing all packages in that group.
example:
I want to install packages from group kde-sdk:

 S kdesdk                                                                                                                                                                                                       
:: group kdesdk (including ignored packages):
   [extra]
     kdesdk-cervisia kdesdk-dolphin-plugins kdesdk-kapptemplate kdesdk-kate kdesdk-kbugbuster kdesdk-kcachegrind kdesdk-kdeaccounts-plugin kdesdk-kdepalettes kdesdk-kioslave kdesdk-kmtrace kdesdk-kompare
     kdesdk-kpartloader kdesdk-kprofilemethod kdesdk-kstartperf kdesdk-kuiviewer kdesdk-lokalize kdesdk-poxml kdesdk-scripts kdesdk-strigi-analyzer kdesdk-umbrello
:: Install whole content? [Y/n] n
:: Install kdesdk-kstartperf from group kdesdk? [Y/n] n
:: Install kdesdk-umbrello from group kdesdk? [Y/n] n
:: Install kdesdk-kpartloader from group kdesdk? [Y/n] n
:: Install kdesdk-kbugbuster from group kdesdk? [Y/n] y
:: Install kdesdk-scripts from group kdesdk? [Y/n] n
:: Install kdesdk-kcachegrind from group kdesdk? [Y/n] n
:: Install kdesdk-kdeaccounts-plugin from group kdesdk? [Y/n] y
:: Install kdesdk-kioslave from group kdesdk? [Y/n] y
:: Install kdesdk-cervisia from group kdesdk? [Y/n] n
:: Install kdesdk-kompare from group kdesdk? [Y/n] y
:: Install kdesdk-kate from group kdesdk? [Y/n] y
:: Install kdesdk-kuiviewer from group kdesdk? [Y/n] n
:: Install kdesdk-kapptemplate from group kdesdk? [Y/n] n
:: Install kdesdk-kmtrace from group kdesdk? [Y/n] n
:: Install kdesdk-poxml from group kdesdk? [Y/n] n
:: Install kdesdk-strigi-analyzer from group kdesdk? [Y/n] y
:: Install kdesdk-kprofilemethod from group kdesdk? [Y/n] n
:: Install kdesdk-dolphin-plugins from group kdesdk? [Y/n] y
:: Install kdesdk-kdepalettes from group kdesdk? [Y/n] n
:: Install kdesdk-lokalize from group kdesdk? [Y/n] n

This is what I choose to install and what I choose not to install through bauerbill
Then when it goes to pacman and the installation itself this is what I get:

Targets (28): kdesdk-cervisia-4.5.1-2  kdesdk-kompare-4.5.1-2  kdesdk-dolphin-plugins-4.5.1-2  kdesdk-kapptemplate-4.5.1-2  kdesdk-kate-4.5.1-2  kdesdk-kbugbuster-4.5.1-2  kdesdk-kcachegrind-4.5.1-2
              kdesdk-kdeaccounts-plugin-4.5.1-2  gsfonts-1.0.7pre44-2  libwmf-0.2.8.4-8  libcroco-0.6.2-1  librsvg-2.26.3-1  babl-0.1.2-1  gegl-0.1.2-1  gimp-2.6.10-1  kdesdk-kdepalettes-4.5.1-2
              kdesdk-kioslave-4.5.1-2  kdesdk-kmtrace-4.5.1-2  kdesdk-kpartloader-4.5.1-2  kdesdk-kprofilemethod-4.5.1-2  kdesdk-kstartperf-4.5.1-2  kdesdk-kuiviewer-4.5.1-2  kdesdk-lokalize-4.5.1-2  antlr-2.7.7-7
              kdesdk-poxml-4.5.1-2  kdesdk-scripts-4.5.1-2  kdesdk-strigi-analyzer-4.5.1-2  kdesdk-umbrello-4.5.1-2

where's the problem, how come that Bauerbill doesn't "send" the info which packages pacman should install?

Xyne · 2010-10-05 15:57:19

@Primoz
That happened because it was passing along the arguments directly. I've updated perl-xyne-arch and perl-xyne-common so that it will now replace the group name with the names of the selected packages.

Update both packages (version >=2010.10.05.1) and let me know if it works as expected.
