Srange problem with slackpkg+, gen_repos_files.sh, and kernel-source


This should be a stupid question. I want to have a mini repository with just 3 packages: kernel-generic, kernel-modules, and kernel-source. I created the following directories with 3 txz-files (taken from -current):
Code:
kernel/
├── kernel-generic/
│   ├── kernel-generic-4.9.38-x86_64-1.txz
├── kernel-modules/
│   ├── kernel-modules-4.9.38-x86_64-1.txz
└── kernel-source/
    ├── kernel-source-4.9.38-noarch-1.txz
Gen_repos_files.sh produced the following:

Code:
kernel/
├── CHECKSUMS.md5
├── CHECKSUMS.md5.asc
├── CHECKSUMS.md5.gz
├── CHECKSUMS.md5.gz.asc

Looks perfect. I added this new repositary to PKGS_PRIORITY in slackpkgplus.conf. And now the problem: slackpkg shows possible upgarde of kernel-generic and kernel-modules from the new repository (this is what I expect), but kernel-source it shows from patches.

How this happens?!

Hello,

Can you post the following :

1. slackpkg+ version number.

2. your slackpkgplus.conf

3. Content of kernel/CHECKSUMS.md5

4. Content of /etc/slackpkg/blacklist

5. The output of command :
Code:
$ ls -l /var/log/packages/kernel-*
6. The output of command :
Code:
$ slackpkg -dialog=off -default_answer=no -batch=on upgrade kernel
7. The content of /var/lib/slackpkg/pkglist

CONFIGURATION

For the basic configuration:

* Edit /etc/slackpkg/slackpkgplus.conf
* Uncomment one or more mirrors and add them to the REPOPLUS list

Note that packages in these repository will not listed if they are present in
the official repositories (see below).

* Optionally, set PKGS_PRIORITY to give priority order for single packages 
  present in multiple repositories or to allow repositories to override
  official slackware packages

Do you mean that I have to list all 4 repositories in REPOPLUS? I tried but nothing changed. My understanding was that priority order is:
1) PKGS_PRIORITY’s packages as listed;
2) SLACKWARE packages
3) REPOPLUS’s as listed
Based on Matteo Rossini's post in your blog

REPOPLUS is the list that tells slackpkg+ which repositories to consider. That way you can have unused MIRRORPLUS lines in the configuration file if you want. Honestly, I'm not sure why packages from your repo are showing up at all if you haven't entered my_kernel in REPOPLUS. Maybe entering it in PKGS_PRIORITY automatically adds it to REPOPLUS too behind the scenes.

So, your kernel's kernel-source package is not in pkglist which implies there's something wrong in slackpkg.

I looked at this and found the issue comes from /usr/libexec/slackpkg/pkglist.awk, which automatically exclude all packages from any directory whose name ends with string "source" :
Code:
!/source\// && !/\.asc$/ {
                INPUT=$NF
                fs=FS  
                FS="/" ; OFS="/"
                $0=INPUT
                if ( $2 != "var" ) {
                        DIR=$2   
                        FULLPACK=$NF
                } else {
                        DIR="local"
                        FULLPACK=$NF".tgz"
                }
.....
This script is used by slackpkg to generate the file /var/lib/slackpkg/pkglist from /var/lib/slackpkg/CHECKSUMS.md5 this way :
Code:
grep "\.t[blxg]z$" /var/lib/slackpkg/CHECKSUMS.md5| \
                awk -f /usr/libexec/slackpkg/pkglist.awk
For instance, with your CHECKSUMS.md5, you'll have the following result :
Code:
$ grep "\.t[blxg]z$" /tmp/my_kernel-CHECKSUMS.md5| awk -f /usr/libexec/slackpkg/pkglist.awk
kernel-generic kernel-generic 4.9.38 x86_64 1 kernel-generic-4.9.38-x86_64-1 ./kernel-generic txz
kernel-modules kernel-modules 4.9.38 x86_64 1 kernel-modules-4.9.38-x86_64-1 ./kernel-modules txz
As you can see, kernel-source has been excluded. Now, if I update my_kernel-CHECKSUMS.md5 so that the kernel-source package is referenced as being in directory 'kernel-sources' instead of 'kernel-source', I get this :
Code:
grep "\.t[blxg]z$" /tmp/my_kernel-CHECKSUMS.md5| awk -f /usr/libexec/slackpkg/pkglist.awk
kernel-generic kernel-generic 4.9.38 x86_64 1 kernel-generic-4.9.38-x86_64-1 ./kernel-generic txz
kernel-modules kernel-modules 4.9.38 x86_64 1 kernel-modules-4.9.38-x86_64-1 ./kernel-modules txz
kernel-sources kernel-source 4.9.38 noarch 1 kernel-source-4.9.38-noarch-1 ./kernel-sources txz

Therefore, to solve your issue, rename the directory in which the kernel-sources package belong to, to something else, like "kernel-sources" or "ksources", but avoid any names ending by "source".

Yes, it works! I renamed the directory to kernel-src and everything is OK now! Thank you phenixia2003 and everybody for help!
