| TREllis | Hi, I'm doing an install using a custom repo (created via reprepro). It fails on tasksel and I see I don't have any task values in Packages.gz, is there any way to import them or another repo tool that supports them (anything that doesn't create a full mirror) ? | 12:45 |
|---|---|---|
| cjwatson | they're exposed in indices/ in the archive, and look for "extra overrides" in your repository building tool | 12:46 |
| cjwatson | at least, that's what apt-ftparchive calls them | 12:46 |
| TREllis | cjwatson: thanks | 12:51 |
| stgraber | releasing a new ubiquity so that we get Martin's gobject fix, was quite annoying yesterday at the global jam | 15:04 |
| cjwatson | sounds wise | 15:12 |
| TREllis | cjwatson: could you point me to an example indices file that has the tasks? I don't see them in lucid's override files | 15:20 |
| TREllis | override file* | 15:21 |
| cjwatson | TREllis: http://archive.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/indices/override.lucid.extra.main | 15:23 |
| cjwatson | extra overrides, as I say :) | 15:23 |
| TREllis | the long story is that I'm doing some net installs that use a partial archive mirror and want tasks to work | 15:23 |
| TREllis | ahhhh .extra. bah :) thanks | 15:23 |
| stgraber | doh, seems like pitti's gobject change broke the test suite ;) fixing it now and re-uploading | 17:35 |
| TREllis | cjwatson: thanks so much, got it working now... just to note that reprepro doesn't process per-arch overrides in it's DebOverride field, just packagename only, so stripping the /i386 bits from it and adding the DebOverride option to the conf/distributions file sorts it | 18:02 |
| cjwatson | cool - never used reprepro so wouldn't have been able to advise there | 18:36 |
