Re: pacserve - easily share Pacman packages between computers

There is a laptop with a very slow wifi connection in my swarm. Is there a way to make a machine only download from others but not contribute? Is this somehow addressed or addressable?

Re: pacserve - easily share Pacman packages between computers

Now CacheServer support has been added to pacman 6.1.0 i've moved over to using that, its very easy to setup and works consistently.

pacserve did work too but was a bit flaky, fresh booted machines i had to restart the service before it would work, some machines not being seen.

Re: pacserve - easily share Pacman packages between computers

pacserve and quickserve stopped working probably after yesterday's system update.

pacserve          
/usr/bin/python3: Error while finding module specification for 'ThreadedServers.Pacserve' (ModuleNotFoundError: No module named 'ThreadedServers')

I haven't uninstalled python3-threaded_servers

You need to rebuild both python3-threaded-servers and pacserve against the new python version. As all AUR packages that depend on python

Weird. After several python updates I didn't need to do that. Both packages have been working for years ... but that thing helped. Only python3-threaded-servers rebuild was required. Thanks V1del

Re: pacserve - easily share Pacman packages between computers

You generally need to do that every time the "major" python version changes, in this case the bump from 3.11 -> 3.12 (minor versions, e.g. 3.12.1 are exempt from this)
