pkg-1.3 apparently uses INDEX to speed things along. I can't use INDEX and need a way to do "pkg upgrade" the old way because: I merge gnome3 and linux_c6 branches into the ports tree. The latest linux_c6 merge breaks "make index" at emulators/linux-systemsimcell (PR filed). As a result, "fethcindex" is not going to work for me since it won't have a listing of the merged ports. So now the oddities that I face, * Upgraded to pkg-1.3, then I had a number of very weird problems by pkg. I then ran "portmaster -a", which did an upgrade for 2 ports: vo-aacenc and vo-amrwbenc. After this pkg started behaving a little more sanely (mentioning this, in case anyone else runs into similar problem) * when starting portmaster, I get below message before it decides to continue with the process anyway (repeats 3 times): "pkg: Cannot get a read lock on a database, it is locked by another process" * I have no INDEX in the ports tree, so "pkg version -PoL=" shows that pkg is greatly confused by a number of ports. For example: games/gnome-mahjongg ? deskutils/gnome-maps ? net/gnome-online-accounts ? deskutils/gnome-photos ? games/gnome-robots ? deskutils/gnome-screenshot ? deskutils/gnome-search-tool ? x11/gnome-shell-extensions ? games/gnome-sudoku ? deskutils/gnome-system-log ? x11-themes/gnome-themes-standard ? deskutils/gnome-tweak-tool ? graphics/gnome-video-effects ? security/gnomint < security/gnutls < * For the ports that pkg is *not* confused about, (the last two ports above with "<" for example), my local poudriere build repo is now being ignored by pkg and "pkg upgrade -r myrepo" completes with a not-so-reassuring "Your packages are up to date" message. YEt as seen above, the version output says otherwise. * From another thread/post: "If you want the old behavior either delete the INDEX file or use the -P flag" No INDEX as stated, and P not an option for upgrade. * I did a fresh merge of branches/trees and the problem persists. ----- FreeBSD-11-current_amd64_root-on-zfs_RadeonKMS -- View this message in context: http://freebsd.1045724.n5.nabble.com/pkg-upgrade-without-using-INDEX-pkg-1-3-tp5931637.html Sent from the freebsd-ports mailing list archive at Nabble.com.
