Re: filesystem Update Error /bin exists in filesystem

Please use quote tags like

.
And 

code tags

where appropriate.

I cannot tell from your post what you are quoting and what you are not quoting so I have no idea what you did. However, it sounds as if you forgot to update bash.

For my system /bin contains sh and bash, /sbin doesn't even exist and /usr/sbin is empty hmm

I ended up moving /bin to /bin-old then creating symlinks to /usr/bin

All seems fine now and boots correctly but the networking and perhaps some other things are not functioning correctly so there's a new barrel of fun to get in to tongue

You forgot the second command of step 5, it would have moved /bin/bash and /bin/sh for you.

Re: filesystem Update Error /bin exists in filesystem

@bananagranola,

Moving some binaries to /usr/bin is not "something stupid", don't be so uncharitable about yourself (#745). Anyway, you'll be able to remove non-official packages with files in /bin and /sbin through the new symlinks in your filesystem, so there's no need to be so dramatic about that unless you take a very long time to put everything in order and backward compatibility is deprecated. Moreover, although that's definitely not the case, why have symbolic links for /bin and /sbin if they are useless?

Even if by any chance your memory fails to undo that bad idea of putting your own scripts in /usr/bin, you'll be able to fix any mishmash in that directory by means of commands such as find, pacman, sort, comm, etc. For example, I use something like this stuff to get rid of orphan and disused files:

find /usr -not -name *.cache -not -name *.pacnew -not -name fonts.* -not -path '/usr/lib/locale/*' -not -path '/usr/share/info/dir' -not -path '/usr/share/mime/*' -not -path '/usr/local/*/*' | sort > /tmp/current-fs_usr-files.txt
pacman -Qql | sed -e 's/\/*$//' | sort -u | grep '/usr' > /tmp/pacman-list_usr-files.txt
comm -32 /tmp/current-fs_usr-files.txt /tmp/pacman-list_usr-files.txt | less

However, if you want to do the same, make sure you don't delete files created by existing programs and don't forget to make a backup as precautionary measure:

comm -32 /tmp/current-fs_usr-files.txt /tmp/pacman-list_usr-files.txt > /tmp/possible_orphan_usr-files.txt
tar -cJvf /root/backup_orphan_usr-files.tar.xz --files-from /tmp/possible_orphan_usr-files.txt

Incidentally, you can edit the previous output, providing you certainly know what files don't have to be backed up.

To round off I'd like to say that you can also put your own scripts in /usr/local/bin so that they are available for everybody. In addition, you can add "~/bin" to your own path in the individual per-interactive-shell startup file ~/.bashrc thus (in case you use GNU Bourne-Again SHell):

if [ -d ~/bin ]; then
    PATH=~/bin:"${PATH}"
    export PATH
fi

___

N.B. Considering that /var is for variable data, using the above commands in that directory is very risky and unwise (your system might be unusable if you do something wrong). Likewise, be careful with /etc as well as another critical directories, moreover, don't touch /boot since there's no reason to do that either.

Re: filesystem Update Error /bin exists in filesystem

Hi ....

First, apologies, I didn't read the news. This change happened while i attend a training course, soIwasn't paying100% attention. Second, thanks for the replies.

The steps in the news item assume I know how to fix a package and that I'm happy doing stuff like "cp /usr/sbin/* /usr/bin".

I'm neither unfortunately. So I'll have to wait until I have a full weekend to see the full implications,and avoid leading to a unbootable system.

Read the thread this is merged to. (Not the whole thing - the same information is essentially repeated over and over so you only need read one chunk.

and that I'm happy doing stuff like "cp /usr/sbin/* /usr/bin".

No. Do not do this. Not being happy doing this is a good thing. Doing it will break stuff.

Re: filesystem Update Error /bin exists in filesystem

So i was about to update today and noticed the news on the homepage.  The problem is that I'm not exactly sure how to go about fixing these issues.  The first command yields this result:

$ pacman -Qqo /bin /sbin /usr/sbin | pacman -Qm -
grub-common 2.00-1

I am not quite sure where grub-common is or what I need to do with it.  I assume I simply need to move it to /usr/bin but I'm not quite sure.  The next command yields this for the catalyst repo:

$ paclist catalyst | awk ' { print $1 } ' | pacman -Ql - | grep ' /s\?bin/\| /usr/sbin/'

Does this mean that I need to move all of those things to /usr/bin?  I figured maybe I could just do something like this:

#!/bin/bash

for file in $(paclist catalyst | awk ' { print $1 } ' | pacman -Ql - | grep ' /s\?bin/\| /usr/sbin/' | awk '{print $2}' )
do
     mv $file /usr/bin
done

This obviously won't work because I'll end up throwing /sbin and /bin in /usr/bin as well as a bunch of things that I probably don't need to be moving around like /usr/sbin/lspci and /usr/sbin/parted for example.  I obviously am trying to go about this the wrong way and could use a little help.

Re: filesystem Update Error /bin exists in filesystem

Don't move them manually. Update the packages.

Please search before posting. There is an extremely long stickied thread covering every permutation at this point. Read a section of it and follow the advice there. (You only need a section because it loops.)

I expect this will merge with that thread shortly...

So i was about to update today and noticed the news on the homepage.  The problem is that I'm not exactly sure how to go about fixing these issues.  The first command yields this result:

$ pacman -Qqo /bin /sbin /usr/sbin | pacman -Qm -
grub-common 2.00-1

I am not quite sure where grub-common is or what I need to do with it.  I assume I simply need to move it to /usr/bin but I'm not quite sure.

grub-common will be replaced by grub, so don't worry about it.

With that output, I'm guessing you don't have anything from that repo actually installed? If that's the case, skip it.

Re: filesystem Update Error /bin exists in filesystem

Sorry about that.  I'm just a bit confused about what I'm supposed to be doing here.  When the front page instructs me to "fix" the packages, this means to update the packages individually before updating the system?  I tried this:

$ sudo pacman -S grub-common
resolving dependencies...
looking for inter-conflicts...
:: grub and grub-common are in conflict. Remove grub-common? [y/N]

That to me is not indicative of a fix.  Am I on the right path here or have I made a mistake?

Re: filesystem Update Error /bin exists in filesystem

Don't do anything with it specifically. That question will be asked in step 5 (pacman -Syu --ignore filesystem,bash), at which time you should answer yes.

To clarify, those instructions were written before the change in Grub. With this change, grub-common is now a false positive, so to speak.

Re: filesystem Update Error /bin exists in filesystem

Oh ok.  But I will need to update all of the packages from the catalyst repo per this one liner in step 1 

paclist <repo> | awk ' { print $1 } ' | pacman -Ql - | grep ' /s\?bin/\| /usr/sbin/'

In my case catalyst being the <repo> in question.  I'm also using xorg113 but the above line returns nothing when xorg113 is substituted for <repo>.

So just to clarify, as per this:

I need to update the following (or "fix" according to the news) before moving on to step 5:

$ paclist catalyst | awk ' { print $1 } ' | pacman -Ql - | grep ' /s\?bin/\| /usr/sbin/' | awk '{print $1}' | sort -u

sysvinit-tools
tar
tcpdump
udisks2
usbmuxd
util-linux
v4l-utils
wireless_tools
wpa_supplicant
xfsprogs
xinetd
zvbi

So running pacman -s on each of these before moving on to step 5 (assuming steps 2, 3, and 4 require no intervention) should theoretically put me in a safe position to proceed to step 5 and not have to spend the 4th of july chrooting into a broken install and googling on my smartphone?

Re: filesystem Update Error /bin exists in filesystem

No, that's invalid output unless each of those package on your system came from the catalyst repo.

Do you actually have anything from that repo installed? If you don't, paclist returns nothing, so nothing is passed to pacman -Ql, so it reverts to it's default behavior of listing every package on the system.

Try just running pacman -Sl catalyst to see all package available in that repo. Those that are installed will say [Installed] after them.

Re: filesystem Update Error /bin exists in filesystem

I'm using the proprietary catalyst driver for my radeon graphics card.  Here is man pacman.conf

#
# /etc/pacman.conf
#
# See the pacman.conf(5) manpage for option and repository directives

#
# GENERAL OPTIONS
#
[options]
# The following paths are commented out with their default values listed.
# If you wish to use different paths, uncomment and update the paths.
#RootDir     = /
#DBPath      = /var/lib/pacman/
#CacheDir    = /var/cache/pacman/pkg/
#LogFile     = /var/log/pacman.log
#GPGDir      = /etc/pacman.d/gnupg/
HoldPkg     = pacman glibc
#XferCommand = /usr/bin/curl -C - -f %u > %o
#XferCommand = /usr/bin/wget --passive-ftp -c -O %o %u
#CleanMethod = KeepInstalled
#UseDelta    = 0.7
Architecture = auto

# Pacman won't upgrade packages listed in IgnorePkg and members of IgnoreGroup
#IgnorePkg   =
#IgnoreGroup =

#NoUpgrade   =
#NoExtract   =

# Misc options
#UseSyslog
#Color
#TotalDownload
CheckSpace
#VerbosePkgLists

# By default, pacman accepts packages signed by keys that its local keyring
# trusts (see pacman-key and its man page), as well as unsigned packages.
SigLevel    = Required DatabaseOptional
LocalFileSigLevel = Optional
#RemoteFileSigLevel = Required

# NOTE: You must run `pacman-key --init` before first using pacman; the local
# keyring can then be populated with the keys of all official Arch Linux
# packagers with `pacman-key --populate archlinux`.

#
# REPOSITORIES
#   - can be defined here or included from another file
#   - pacman will search repositories in the order defined here
#   - local/custom mirrors can be added here or in separate files
#   - repositories listed first will take precedence when packages
#     have identical names, regardless of version number
#   - URLs will have $repo replaced by the name of the current repo
#   - URLs will have $arch replaced by the name of the architecture
#
# Repository entries are of the format:
#       [repo-name]
#       Server = ServerName
#       Include = IncludePath
#
# The header [repo-name] is crucial - it must be present and
# uncommented to enable the repo.
#

# The testing 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.

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

[xorg113]
Server = http://catalyst.wirephire.com/repo/xorg113/$arch

[catalyst]
Server = http://catalyst.wirephire.com/repo/catalyst/$arch

Include = /etc/pacman.d/mirrorlist

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

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

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

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

Re: filesystem Update Error /bin exists in filesystem

Sorry, I edited my last post while you were posting.

Try just running pacman -Sl catalyst to see all package available in that repo. Those that are installed will say [Installed] after them.

Also try breaking down that command into parts. Start with just "paclist catalyst", which should return a list of the packages installed from the catalyst repo.

Re: filesystem Update Error /bin exists in filesystem

Hmmm... interesting

$ pacman -Sl catalyst | grep installed
catalyst catalyst 13.6-2 [installed: 13.4-2]
catalyst catalyst-utils 13.6-3 [installed: 13.4-1]

vs

$ paclist catalyst

Re: filesystem Update Error /bin exists in filesystem

well isn't that fun. How about this replace "paclist catalyst | awk ' { print $1 } '" with "pacman -Sl catalyst | grep installed | awk ' { print $2 }'" in that command. Just another way of getting the same output.

Re: filesystem Update Error /bin exists in filesystem

So should I assume from this

$ pacman -Sl catalyst | grep installed | awk ' { print $2 }'
catalyst
catalyst-utils

That updating these two packages will have me good to go to move on to the last step?  (the other steps needed no intervention)

Re: filesystem Update Error /bin exists in filesystem

sorry, I meant to put that into the command, ie to pipe that to pacman -Qm and grep. This will tell you if either of those packages have files in the dirs in question.

Re: filesystem Update Error /bin exists in filesystem

like this?

$ pacman -Sl catalyst | grep installed | awk '{print $2}' | pacman -Qm -

if so, that returns nothing.  Without the hyphen at the end I get a bunch of stuff.  Including things like mysql, compiz, gnome-games, etc... I definitely didn't get those from the catalyst repos...

Re: filesystem Update Error /bin exists in filesystem

sorry, typo, I meant -Ql, not -Qm

What I'm saying is that "pacman -Sl catalyst | grep installed | awk ' { print $2 }'" will have the same output as "paclist catalyst | awk ' { print $1 } '". Since paclist isn't working on your system for some reason, run the second command from step 1, but substitute in the working command for the not-working part
