Setting this variable will make xbps-src use an alternative mirror for
remote repositories.
Using this variable one can change the remote repository for all
architectures in a single setting and without the need to modify
`etc/xbps.d/repos-remote*.conf`. This is much more convenient as it
allows changing remote repos without a dirty worktree.
To use just add a line like the following to `etc/conf`:
XBPS_MIRROR=https://repo-us.voidlinux.org/current
We also disable 00-repository-main.conf for cross so we don't use the
remote repo from the xbps package.
Some packages require tzdata to testing, however, adding `tzdata` to
those checkdepends will break masterdir, since `tzdata` provides
`/usr/share/zoneinfo/UTC`, hence, it will be removed upon cleanup.
Let's add `tzdata` into `base-chroot` and remove the shenanigan in
`chroot.sh`.
Missing $XBPS_MASTERDIR/tmp caused ca-certificates and glibc-locales to
fail in the reconfigure step of binary-bootstrap, since a call to mktemp
(which I couldn't locate in source though) assumed /tmp in the chroot
would be present already.
This issue was reproducible reliably for me on NixOS by doing something
like:
rm -rf masterdir
./xbps-src binary-bootstrap
The workaround I found was:
mkdir -p masterdir/tmp # or alternatively ./xbps-src clean
# which also (re-)creates masterdir/tmp
./xbps-src binary-bootstrap
This workaround is now mirrored in chroot_prepare by ensuring that tmp
always exists.
Currently /etc/localtime is copied from the host to the chroot. Some
software expects /etc/localtime to be a symbolic link it can read to
determine the name of the time zone, so set up the expected link
structure.
The file was created in chroot_prepare(), but the configuration
directory was being cleaned in chroot_sync_repodata(). This commit moves
the configuration to after the directories are created.
Fixes#25534
Outside of chroot, we calcucate XBPS_ALT_REPOSITORY only to throw it
away and calculate it again inside chroot. Normally, this is not problem
except when we're working with a Git's worktree, in which case, we don't
have the access to original gitdir inside chroot.
Let's bring that value from outside of chroot into it.
The new behavior is basically this:
1) Local repos are installed same as before.
2) Multilib configs are now handled only if they exist. They follow
a naming system repos-{local,remote}-ARCH-multilib.conf.
3) Remote repo files follow naming repos-remote-ARCH.conf. If that
does not exist, repos-remote.conf or repos-remote-musl.conf is
used instead (fallback).
4) Cross follows the same behavior, just without multilib.
[ci skip]
The problem here is that newly introduced behavior in commit
b2b0409be4 resulted in builddir and
destdir *always* being removed when starting a build, as a part of
masterdir auto-update. We don't want this as we may want to resume
a previous build (e.g. by running stages individually or by resuming
a failed build from where it stopped).
Therefore, explicitly override the removal to restore previous behavior.
If `etc/xbps.d/custom` exists (directory) and contains
xbps.d(5) .conf files, those will be copied verbatim
to `masterdir/etc/xbps.d`.
This allows you to set your custom xbps.d(5) settings
without having to modify any other file.
This is also useful for testing xbps.d(5) noextract feature.
There may be /etc/xbps.d/*remote* config files dangling from a previous
run w/o XBPS_SKIP_REMOTEREPOS being set. Make sure to remove them
in case $XBPS_SKIP_REMOTEREPOS is set for this run.
This patchset contains multiple changes to xbps-src and
its required package "base-chroot" for building packages
via chroot.
- moved xbps.d(5) conf files to `etc/xbps.d`.
- renamed xbps.d(5) repository files to `etc/xbps.d/repos-{local,remote}*`.
- do not set `--repository` to any xbps command that supports it,
xbps-src now simply populates `rootdir/etc/xbps.d` with correct
settings (taking care of CHROOT_READY/IN_CHROOT).
- Unless `-C` is set (to preserve builddir/destdir/autodeps), when
entering to the chroot (if CHROOT_READY is set), xbps-src will
clean up the masterdir and then perform a system update to always
use a constant set of packages for that exact date.
- Improved some normal/error msgs.
- Includes support for `xbps>=0.58`.
- common/hooks: switch to bsdtar.
- base-chroot:
- base-chroot-musl is gone, now unified for glibc/musl.
- deps removed: gettext, mpfr, readline, texinfo, which, xz.
- deps changed: tar -> bsdtar.
Effectively this reduces dependencies in `base-chroot`, makes
it unified for musl and glibc, switches xbps-src to use `bsdtar`
rather than GNU `tar` and `xz`, gets rid of useless host dependencies
like GNU gettext, texinfo, etc.
I've been testing these changes for 1 month or so already,
I was able to build from scratch `base-system` for both native
and multiple targets, i.e `./xbps-src -a target -Nt pkg base-system`
- use xbps-checkvers(1) to resolve dependencies.
- all dependencies are installed at once for the host and target.
- the show-build-deps target is now much faster.
- the update-bulk/show-repo-updates targets are now much faster.
- the update-sys/show-sys-updates targets are now much faster.
- the bootstrap target now works on musl hosts.
- simplified some loops.
- use cut(1) rather than awk(1) where applicable.
- multiple random changes to improve performance.

Previously -q was passed to sub processes. When I changed
-q's meaning, this made everything quiet. -Q is now passed
for those instances, and -q is passed for quieting.
