[SOLVED] slackpkg+ messed up upgrades
by zdolar from LinuxQuestions.org on (#55TX6)
Hi!
Slackware64-current (15.7.2020)
slackpkg+ configured on november 2019 when installed.
repositories: multilib ktown, alienbob restricted
mirrors:
https://mirrors.slackware.com/slackw...are64-current/
Today I wanted to slackpkg upgrade my machine but
Code:slackpkg upgrade slackware64 menu show messed up packages an all were selected:
1. there were some packages already installed
2. some packages were selected older then installed
3. there were kde4 packages
Last upgrade on 15. 7. 2020 was correct and no slackpkg(+) configs were changed
Looks like slackpkg+ ignores config files
So I delelted slackpkg related files/folders in /var/ to clean up completely.
then
slackpkg update gpg - completed without warnings and keys were fetched
slackpkg upgrade slackware64 still messy packages
And I got those errors:
Code:[~] # slackpkg check-updates
Searching for updates... No news is good news
==============================================================================
WARNING! One or more errors occurred while slackpkg was running
------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Repository 'slackpkgplus' FAILS the CHECKSUMS.md5 signature check.
Try to run 'slackpkg update gpg'
Repository 'multilib' FAILS the CHECKSUMS.md5 signature check.
Try to run 'slackpkg update gpg'
Repository 'restricted' FAILS the CHECKSUMS.md5 signature check.
Try to run 'slackpkg update gpg'
Repository 'alienbob' FAILS the CHECKSUMS.md5 signature check.
Try to run 'slackpkg update gpg'
Repository 'ktown' FAILS the CHECKSUMS.md5 signature check.
Try to run 'slackpkg update gpg'
But GPG is up to date
