This was my my first Sync with Solus it was bumpy but I got through it... I think. LOL. I actually had to run the update 3 times, as the first two time the updates didn's "stick: almost like it was done as a dry-run. It was actualyl really weird. I ran the update, then 20 minutes later Software Center is screaming at me that there are 217 NEW updates to install. That's when I went to the command line and rand the update and discovered that my eopkg database somehow got corrupted. Ran the update again as 'sudo eopkg up --debug' and found the issue. A quick sudo eopkg rdb
and sudo eopkg rb
and everything was fine. The update went through without a hitch on the third try.
I did notice that the search function on the Software Center was not working for a large portion of yesterday, but the CLI search worked fine. Is that normal for an update or was that a symptom of my eopkg problems? I still have a few unresolved issues, (my application launcher, the Kickoff one, is HUGE and in the center of my screen and I can'[t get it back to normal! LOL) and one major one that is actually going to decide whether I stay with Solus or not (NVIDIA Drivers... Uggh). I REALLY hope we can get it fixed, because I really like this distro (granted, it's the second one I've tried, but still... If I leave it's probably to Manjaro or Garuda). Expect a few new posts from me in the next hour or so!
Side note, any housekeeping scripts / cleanup scripts / login or logoff scripts / dear god I sound like an addict / general useful things to make life simpler that your guys have and might like to share would be greatly appreciated. Thanks!
