GhostBSD-11 testing the "test" repository

[NevilleGoddard]

Sorry, ASX.
I was testing xfce GhostBSD-11-amd64 repo not GhostBSD11.1-amd64(?) test repo.

I have in GhostBSD.conf

GhostBSD: {
url: "http://pkg.GhostBSD.org/GhostBSD-11/amd64/test",
enabled: yes
}

and no FreeBSD repo

[ASX]

The repo name is correct, tn that

Code: Select all

url: "http://pkg.GhostBSD.org/GhostBSD-11/amd64/test"

refers exactly a 11.1

the ABI is the same for 11.0 and 11.1, therefore we used the shortest notation: GhostBSD-11

From this point of view, your configuration look correct.

I'm assuming you built the ISO yourself for GhostBSD 11.1 ... and there could be the problem:
my latest test are from yesterday, and "mate" appear to not start Xorg, while "xfce" seems to work, (it did for me at least).

Those things are under investigation right now ... I will post back as soon as there is some news.

[NevilleGoddard]

Actually no I didn't build it myself. I tried to build an ISO but it wouldn't fetch the files. It said no such repository or something. Sorry, I can't remember.
I upgraded from 11-alpha-1.

The crazy thing is that the /lib/libz.so.6 file is there.

I upgraded my desktop using the same method and everything went fine.

[ASX]

Well, the error is not about a missing libz, is about an incorrect version of libz.

I'm updating my latest install right now ... it will take some time..

NevilleGoddard, if possible join us on Freenode #ghosbsd or #ghostbsd-dev IRC channels.
(GhostBSD provide hexchat program, already set for that)

Please retry, it is working for me and I see no reason why it should not work for you.
Be sure to pull in the latest changes (git pull).

Thanks ASX.
Last time tried I got:

#### Fetching world for amd64 architecture ####
fetch: ftp://ftp.freebsd.org/pub/FreeBSD/relea ... 3/base.txz: File unavailable (e.g., file not found, no access)
*** Error code 1

Will try again tomorrow after reinstalling ghostbsd-build.

Uh ... I see, it is still referring 11.1-RC3, guess that it worked for me because this file is cached on my system ... Thanks!
Will be fixed soon

[ASX]

Fixed! NevilleGoddard, please retry now.

I tried and unfortunately I got this:

Installing package gstreamer-plugins-soup
gstreamer-plugins-soup not found in repos
*** Error code 1

Very strange .... the pkg is available: http://pkg.ghostbsd.org/GhostBSD-11/amd ... 0.36_6.txz
and I also built some ISOs after posting about the fix, so the build scripts are OK.

NevilleGoddard, try to delete the build cache:

Code: Select all

rm -rf /usr/ghostbsd-fs/cache

then restart the build
