[SOLVED] /bin exists in filesystem (owned by filesystem)

So I'm trying to create a very simple pkgbuild for this package that I had originally installed from source: https://github.com/zbm-dev/zfsbootmenu

Here's my PKGBUILD: https://pastebin.com/EM2ZQ1qh

I am installing with

makepkg -si --skipinteg

currently but it shouldn't affect it.

Originally, I got this error:

error: failed to commit transaction (conflicting files)
zfsbootmenu: /bin exists in filesystem (owned by filesystem)
zfsbootmenu: /bin/generate-zbm exists in filesystem
zfsbootmenu: /etc/zfsbootmenu/config.yaml exists in filesystem
zfsbootmenu: /etc/zfsbootmenu/dracut.conf.d/zfsbootmenu.conf exists in filesystem
zfsbootmenu: /usr/lib/dracut/modules.d/90zfsbootmenu/module-setup.sh exists in filesystem

zfsbootmenu: /usr/lib/dracut/modules.d/90zfsbootmenu/zlogtail.sh exists in filesystem
zfsbootmenu: /usr/share/examples/zfsbootmenu/keycache.sh exists in filesystem
zfsbootmenu: /usr/share/examples/zfsbootmenu/xhci-teardown.sh exists in filesystem
Errors occurred, no packages were upgraded.

and I figured this was because I had already installed this once from source, so the files were already there. I deleted them, but I still get

error: failed to commit transaction (conflicting files)
zfsbootmenu: /bin exists in filesystem (owned by filesystem)
Errors occurred, no packages were upgraded.

I have upgraded the filesystem package today if it matters.

Thanks

Files need to be installed to /usr/bin, not to /bin. See if there's an option in the makefile for BINDIR, or if not, just mv it.

Re: [SOLVED] /bin exists in filesystem (owned by filesystem)

@loqs, thanks so much for the help, worked great

And thx for putting the hash too

EDIT: for some reason I can't find generate-zbm in bin or usr bin?

Check the package content with pacman -Ql and see if it got perhaps installed somewhere else.

Looks like generate-zbm wasn't added.

I see this when installing

install -m 0755 -t /vault/files/dev/zfsbootmenu/pkg/zfsbootmenuusr/bin/ -D bin/generate-zbm

but I'm not sure why it's not there.

Thx

Re: [SOLVED] /bin exists in filesystem (owned by filesystem)

install -m 0755 -t /vault/files/dev/zfsbootmenu/pkg/zfsbootmenuusr/bin/ -D bin/generate-zbm

zfsbootmenuusr is the problem .

Check the Makefile at https://github.com/zbm-dev/zfsbootmenu/ … r/Makefile , line 10 .
It  misses a / between $(DESTDIR) and $(PREFIX) .

Using sed or patch to correct that line (and reporting it upstream) seems simplest method to workaround it.

Thanks so much, fixed it. It's just my own PKGBUILD for myself btw

thanks everyone who responded

Ooooooor, do not set PREFIX to "usr", set it to "/usr" as intended.

It's obvious once you point it out.  Can I persuade you to look at https://bbs.archlinux.org/viewtopic.php?id=263533 please.
