Repo

Axios

Ok when I did sudo eopkg ar (rit) on Laptop it ended up just having rit listed (thats fine and it works)

On my desktop I did eopkg ar (rit) it added (rit) but I have both listed
The problem I can only disable (Rit) thats the one I want use dont know why it has both listed.

Can I remove the cdn didnt see a remove repo command

nolan

Checking the eopkg man page, eopkg --help works too, disable-repo (dr) disables the repo, and remove-repo (rr) removes a repo.
Check man eopkg to see the manual or eopkg --help to see the things and how to use eopkg.
Check eopkg delete-repo --help or eopkg dr --help (works the same way) to see more info about it.

Axios

nolan If I do command to remove CDN it removes (rit) same if trying to make
it active or inactive.
Cant remove the cdn one which on this screenshot throws the first error thats why I need to use rit.
Its to easy or I am oh nevermind..lol

Thanks for rr command I didnt see it in terminal help

I guess what I am saying can add Rit fine but it still wants to use cdn
can not disable or remove cdn entry.

nolan

The command to remove a repo should have the name of the repo to remove.
As I see, the CDN repo has the name "solus" and the rit one "Solus".
Notice the first letter in the name, they are not the same. Linux terminal in every distribution is case sensitive, meaning "S" is not the same as "s".

Following your post
sudo eopkg dr solus should delete the CDN one.
sudo eopkg dr Solus should delete the "rit" one.

nolan

And for "File integrity of [URL] compromised." deleting both repos or at least that repo, should fix the problem as solus uses the CDN as default and wen eopkg does not find a file or repo enabled it rebuilds and set the default repo.

Axios

nolan Not sure exactly what i did here but got it.

Thanks for the reply

nolan

you removed both repos and automatically eopkg added the default repo (the cdn) and it seems that you overwrite the url for the "rit".

Axios

nolan I got watch my syntax in terminal I forget sometimes...lol

Axios Just a tiny note: I do think dr is deactivate (specific) repo, rr is remove (specific) repo - with info?
Also, IMVHO it seems Solus was - at least recently - the default for CDN/the default when it's added, and so I don't know why, how and when he had solus as such. (maybe an old install, no idea.)

Regardless of the above users but still somewhat in-topic, I do hope such won't theoretically cause conflicts/non adding in time when needed, or any other troubles I can't forsee as a newbie. Added this note for I recalled some output in the channel long ago in which a repo was added but late.)

The following is NOT a recommendation at all!

After dr command and some other mess (note: 1. dr deactivated yet non removed last repo, so no default is added 2. Solus CDN repo is added by default after removing last repo 3. the system.base error was linked to not having really an active repo it seems, as it was not added as there was still a deactivated one.):

eopkg has good help output. No need to wonder what rr or dr do when it tells you.

❯ eopkg -help |grep repo
           add-repo (ar) - Add a repository
       disable-repo (dr) - Disable repository
        enable-repo (er) - Enable repository
     list-available (la) - List available packages in the repositories
        list-newest (ln) - List newest packages in the repositories
          list-repo (lr) - List repositories
        remove-repo (rr) - Remove repositories
        update-repo (ur) - Update repository databases

TraceyC Thanks, but I mainly related to above sayings regarding dr and rr here,
and my side note mainly related to an incidence I saw long ago on channel (technical, no mess) which might have been related. since I am a newbie I also explored a bit and that was my way to explain it/show it's this way, if a bit awkward... (This time I said it's not a recommendation for a REALLY good reason OFC. I did try to explore the exact behavior myself.)

OFC showing eopkg help like you did was a better way 🙂

Anyway... Thanks for your post. It's helpful. (in general, and also personally to me - I don't know how to grep and examples help me too, BTW)

P.S. Don't worry, I have/had eopkg working great on my side, it was just to show something 🙂

Axios

Ya I had a bad hair day that day when something simple went haywire..lol (isnt that the way its suppose to work?)
And thanks for all the input.
I even missed the rr command that day even tho I looked at the help go figure oh well.

So I took a quick look into the code around this and eopkg is actually programmed to replace the RIT mirror with the CDN if it's found. This was a step that was taken in order to migrate everyone to the new CDN.

[deleted]

ReillyBrogan Yes. You are right. It was some pisi CDN update, I forgot which. (checked: from 25/4.)

However I meant to relate to a chat long held in the channel, with an output added, which I had no idea (as a newbie) why it did not work initially then that way, but later the replacement was held as should, and I wondered why, not being a programmer. The details I don't remember but the system.base error also appeared then.

Probably no matter. (chat was 17/6 on Support I think, but it probably doesn't matter anymore)

Axios

ReillyBrogan Ah forgot about that so thats why things happened to me that did.lol
I will try to someday figure out why cdn does not work for me and gives me that badzip error all the time
(thought I was losing it at the time..lol)

ReillyBrogan

@Axios could you actually switch back to the CDN and try it again? I may have resolved this issue.

Axios

ReillyBrogan I have not done the current updates.
Changed it back was giving me same error at first not sure what caused it to change.
But now It downloades like 8 files and is stuck with badzip error(which is more than it was doing before)
And this is totally weird if I disable ipv6(it works like I just described)
If I disable ipv4 and use ipv6 (works like I just describe)
So now both Ipv4 and ipv6 seem be somewhat working where as before ipv4 was only one working.
messed with mtu seem have no effect
Note so yes before it was not going anywhere now at least doing something

Thought I would try it again now its back to not getting past the index file.
Oh well I give up on it. something screwy somewhere.

ReillyBrogan

Give it another try please.

If that doesn't work I'll have you hop onto IRC and we can potentially debug there.

Axios

ReillyBrogan
I will try check it out on friends isp and see what happens this week.

Axios

Interesting readout just learning

cdn

Cdn when downloading file (did it multi times latency below seems good/worse)

ReillyBrogan

Axios There's not really anything out of the ordinary there. You're seeing Cloudflare headers because the CDN is served via Cloudflare, the file should be the same.
