slackpkg - version 2.84.0_beta5 / slackpkg+ 1.7.0d1

The 'slackpkg update' seems to working okay here. Here is my output on already updated data. Of note, the only repository that is not local is slackpkgplus. When I first did the upgrade, the output was not right, however it all looks good now after I reverted back to the 1.7.0 to get before look, then back to 1.7.0d1 to get the after, now I can't reproduce it. Must have been a cobweb that got cleaned out.

Quote:

- Added SBo support. This does not replace sbopkg. It just search in
SlackBuilds.org and report the url to download to build and install
packages yourself.

Works as advertised. Neat feature. Suggestion, add a SBOOFF variable to turn on SBOURL. Typing 'SBOOFF=on slackpkg search ffmpeg' it a bit easier to remember than 'SBOURL=https://www.slackbuilds.org/slackbuilds/14.2/ slackpkg search ffmpeg'.
Here is my output searching ffmpeg.

I've never actually used this. Did everything manually.

slackpkg+ did not work properly when run as a package group instead single packages.

Not really sure what you mean by package group.

One reason I choose 'ffmpeg' for my example was because there is a missing version in the list. This existed before upgrading to slackpkg+ 1.7.0d1. This is what I get using 'slackpkg search ffmpeg-4':

Code:

[ Status          ] [ Repository              ] [ Package                                  ]

  uninstalled(masked)      slackware64                  ffmpeg-4.2.2-x86_64-1

This what I think I should see: (I'm guessing this is because of the same tag.)

I installed the dev version & replaced slackpkgplus.sh with the updated code. The install-new & upgrade-all progress percent is awesome! Same sed issue here on update as denydias reported.

Reverting back to original dev slackpkgplus.sh for now. Thanks for your efforts zerouno!

Can you run bash -x slackpkg update with the git slackpkgplus.sh release? Currently I'm not able to replicate the problem.

see attached...

I ran "bash -x slackpkg update >slackpkg.txt 2>&1" from your earlier post. Hope that helps!

Thanks.
can run the same with original (no git)

There is an inconsistence on a unmodified piece of code

same command, no git...

Just tried with latest slackpkgplus.sh, those "cp: cannot stat" line are gone.

TERSE is really neat, even with VERBOSE=1 (tried with VERBOSE=0 too.) I kind of like it non-terse, but I plan to leave it enabled for awhile in the spirit of testing. ;-)

I kind of liked the spinning progress system. I can get used to the new system though.

Changed to VERBOSE=3, then ran:

using master:

Code:

$ time bash -x slackpkg update 2>&1 | tee slackpkgplus-master.txt ... real 2m10,248s user 0m18,154s sys 0m5,240s
using slackpkg+-1.7.0d1:

Code:

$ time bash -x slackpkg update 2>&1 | tee slackpkgplus-1.7.0d1.txt ... real 1m4,839s user 0m16,937s sys 0m3,676s

Output files here (LQ don't let me attach files due to ridiculous captcha thing).

I wish it helps.

Are you sure that git slackpkgplus md5 is:

# md5sum /usr/libexec/slackpkg/functions.d/slackpkgplus.sh
5ab845db4868679e55ad1dc396622348 /usr/libexec/slackpkg/functions.d/slackpkgplus.sh

In row 444 (open with vim)

Code:

      curl --max-time 10 --location --head $SRCURL 2>/dev/null|tac|sed '/^HTTP/q'|tac|grep -v -i -e ^Date: -e ^Set-Cookie: -e ^Expires: -e ^X-Varnish:|sed 's/^M//' > $TMPDIR/cache.head

note the
sed 's/^M//'
(^M is a single character)
This should be the same both in git and no git release.

in slackpkg output:

nogit (row 451):

Code:

+ curl --max-time 10 --location --head http://guest7/slackware64-current/ChangeLog.txt

+ tac

+ sed '/^HTTP/q'

+ tac

+ grep -v -i -e '^Date:' -e '^Set-Cookie:' -e '^Expires:' -e '^X-Varnish:'

+ sed $'s/\r//'

+ echo 'Url: http://guest7/slackware64-current/ChangeLog.txt'

\r is a translation of ascii ^M

git (row 458):

Code:

+ curl --max-time 10 --location --head http://guest7/slackware64-current/ChangeLog.txt

+ tac

+ sed '/^HTTP/q'

+ tac

+ sed 's/

//'

+ grep -v -i -e '^Date:' -e '^Set-Cookie:' -e '^Expires:' -e '^X-Varnish:'

sed: -e expression #1, char 2: unterminated `s' command

+ echo 'Url: http://guest7/slackware64-current/ChangeLog.txt'

the newline after s/ is the translation of the use of ^M

If I run on my machine I obtains

Code:

+ sed $'s/\r//'

in both with and without git release.

try to replace

Code:

      curl --max-time 10 --location --head $SRCURL 2>/dev/null|tac|sed '/^HTTP/q'|tac|grep -v -i -e ^Date: -e ^Set-Cookie: -e ^Expires: -e ^X-Varnish:|sed 's/^M//' > $TMPDIR/cache.head

with

Code:

      curl --max-time 10 --location --head $SRCURL 2>/dev/null|tac|sed '/^HTTP/q'|tac|grep -v -i -e ^Date: -e ^Set-Cookie: -e ^Expires: -e ^X-Varnish:|sed $'s/\r//' > $TMPDIR/cache.head

(see sed)

I was referring to the replacement of the spinnythingy :-)

I understand that the (masked) label refers to packages that are not candidates to be installed as an upgrade because repository priorities forbid them to do so.

In my case, I have "PKGS_PRIORITY=( restricted ktown )" in place, so even though slackware64's ffmpeg is newer (4.2.2) than the one I've currently installed (4.2.1), the prior will not be installed as the later is the one "masking" it.

The word "masked" explains very little of this, as well as the place where it's applied to. Is there a better wording for this? Or maybe:

Code:

[ Status              ] [ Repository  ] [ Package                                                    ]

  installed(masking)      restricted      ffmpeg-4.2.1-x86_64-1alien

...

  uninstalled(masked)    extra          ffmpeg-4.2.2-x86_64-1_alsa

  uninstalled(masked)    ponce          ffmpeg-4.2.2-x86_64-1ponce

  uninstalled(masked)    slackware64    ffmpeg-4.2.2-x86_64-1
