[SOLVED] Does .pkg.tar.gz contain all dependencies ?

Hey , while doing "makepkg -s" .. the resulting .pkg.tar.gz is formed. Does this file contain all the dependencies as well ? Does this mean, if i store this file, Then in a new installation I wont have to do makepkg or anything. I can just install it by pacman -U <name.pkg.tar.gz> ?

No, makepkg -s installs the dependencies prior to build / install. That is just the single package you are referring to. If you do pacman -U it won't say installing x,y, and z it will only say install x.
Edit: I do not know of any way to put mutliple packages that can be installed simultaneously with one archive with pacman. It may be possible but I have not seen this.

  • Does the iPhoto Library contain all my pictures?

    Forgive me if this is a trivial question I am a new iPhoto user.
    When I import into my library my old jpg files stay there but then I get this new file in my Photos folder called iPhoto Library which is rather large in size.
    Can I safely delete the JPG files then since it appears all my photos are stored in this one file?
    Thanks in advance!

    Can I safely delete the JPG files then since it appears all my photos are stored in this one file?
    Yes. Unless you've disabled it from the iPhoto preferences, anything added to iPhoto is placed in that package.

  • Download all dependencies.

    Hello!
    Does any way to download all dependencies from VIM? Or to build dependencies between group of VMs?
    We have more that 1k VMs without any documentations (I don't know how as it happens), fortunately they divaided by folders inside vSphere one folder is one virtualised system (system is a group of VMs) and we want to know how different systems interact with each other.

    Hi Dmitry,
    I'm Galit , a member in VIN QE team.
    IMHO there is no way to export the dependencies of a VM via the VIN UI.
    The only way is to view a VM's dependencies in a more direct way is via the "Table View".
    Thanks,

  • [SOLVED] Mount /boot/efi fails after linux-....pkg.tar.xz upgrade

    Can anyone help with this please?  Sorry if it's a well known issue and I have just failed to find the solution, but I have searched for one.
    I use yaourt -Syu regularly, and generally it's great.
    BUT - every time linux-3.17...-x86_64.pkg.tar.xz is upgraded the system fails to reboot!  Throwing something like:
    Nov 17 16:09:49 cart systemd[1]: boot-efi.mount mount process exited, code=exited status=32
    Nov 17 16:09:49 cart systemd[1]: Failed to mount /boot/efi.
    Nov 17 16:09:49 cart systemd[1]: Unit boot-efi.mount entered failed state.
    Nov 17 16:09:49 cart mount[232]: mount: unknown filesystem type 'vfat'
    After much struggling I have discovered a workaround, but I don't understand it - or like it.  This is what I do:
    1. Boot from an archiso image cd in UEFI mode
    2. Mount the correct partitions on / /home and /boot
    3. # arch-chroot /mnt /bin/bash
    4. # cd /var/cache/pacman/pkg
    5. # pacman -U linux-3.16.3-1-x86_64.pkg.tar.xz  (or whatever is the latest upgrade)
    Then, when I exit and reboot all is well again.
    I use the rEFInd boot manager to choose between ArchLinux and ,reluctantly, Windows 8.1 - I suspect that might have something to do with my problem but I don't know what.
    If anyone can tell what I am doing wrong, please explain.
    Thanks

    Hi Matt,
    I think you've done it - thanks a lot.
    I changed this line in my /etc/fstab :
      UUID=0E51-F605          /boot/efi     vfat ...
    to
      UUID=0E51-F605          /boot     vfat ...
    and I think that's done the trick. 
    I did pacman -U linux-3.16.3-1-x86_64.pkg.tar.xz again without booting from an archiso image cd in UEFI mode, which would previously have failed - and it didn't.
    I look forward to the next actual upgrade of linux-3...
    Thanks again,  I can't remember how, or why, I went wrong in fstab but I won't do it again.

    Every time I try and create a new folder on my desktop, it is never empty, but contains all my existing files. Am I doing something stupid?

    Is this what it looks like when you open the new untitled folder:
    The left column always shows unless you choose 'hide sidebar' in the Finder View menu drop down options and, on mine,  it shows two items on my desktop - the new folder and a previously created folder.

  • Does Windows SP2 contain all prior updates?

    Today is the big day.  The last computer component comes in so that I can start the processing of becoming a first time builder.  
    Microsoft sent me SP2 on cd.  After I install win xp from the CD (I presume SP1 is on the installation cd), do I need to go on line and run windows update before I install SP2 or does SP2 contain all the prior updates?
    Thanks.

    It includes all the major critical updates so you should install it first and then go on line for any others.

    Hi,
    There isn't a PI 7.0 oder XI 3.0 version as well.
    So i guess SAP will not provide a PI 7.1 Trail on SDN.
    it would be to big for a local installation ... because you need ABAP and Java Stack of the Application Server.

  • Does patch clusters contain all old patches?

    Suppose I have a system installed long ago, that has never been patched. If I install only the latest recommended and security patch cluster, will I then get all recommended and security patches?
    Or will there be recommended and security patches missing because I have failed to install earlier patch clusters?
    /Lars

    Hello Lars,
    This forum is for the support of the Sun Update Connection product only. As such we are not the correct forum for questions of this type.
    However if you install the latest patch cluster this will contain all the most recent security patches, which will either include or obselete the previous patches.

  • Metainfo in .pkg.tar.gz

    I recently had cause to manually tweak a package after I had made it. I realized that I needed a script in /etc/profile.d/ that I didn't include. I didn't want to remake the whole thing because it's an svn install and I do try to keep the source clean by copying it into a new folder and building from there. So I referenced the wiki and the forums for how to manually edit a package and didn't find much (maybe I'm not looking hard enough/well enough).
    Anyway, the building packages wiki says
    Typically, the resulting package file is a file called foo.pkg.tar.gz.
    In fact, it is no more than a gzipped tar archive or 'tarball' which contains:
        * The files to install
        * .PKGINFO: contains all the metadata needed by pacman to deal with packages, dependencies, etc.
        * .FILELIST: lists all the files of the archive. It's used in order to uninstall the software or to check for file conflicts.
        * .INSTALL: a file used to execute commands after the install/upgrade/remove stage. (This file is present only if specified in the PKGBUILD.)
    However, I untarred the package and I only found .PKGINFO and the files. I understand not having a .INSTALL because I don't make use of pre_install() or post_install(), but there is no .FILELIST. Is that from an older version of the setup? Or was the file hidden away?
    By the way, ought I make a wiki page for manually editing a made package? It's simple, if you know where to look, but if you're not comfortable with playing with things and reading bash it might be painful.

    Well, the makepkg -R doesn't touch the build() function, though, and really what I would've needed to do was skip most of the build() function until the end. I think there are some cases that might merit it. I could think it handy to modify an internal configuration file here or there without having to build the beast (the one-and-a-half-hour-to-compile beast in my case).
    Why is it not recommended? Is it because there's no solid record of what was done, then?
    exactly.
    afaik, if you use separated build() and package() function, you can simply edit the package() function and run makepkg -R

  • ABS doesn't contain all packages

    My local ABS tree doesn't seem to contain anywhere near all of the packages in the standard repositories. I can do an ABS sync from 'rsync.archlinux.org' and be told that all packages are available, but my repositories are still missing various packages:

  • Pacman failed retrieving *.pkg.tar.xz

    I recently discovered that my system was not upgrading because pacman was looking in repositories with older versions of files.
    I added this to /etc/pacman.d/mirrorlist
    Server = http://archlinux.org/$repo/os/x86_64
    Pacman needed upgrading
    So I upgraded pacman from 3.3.x to 3.5.4 and updated the database as instructed
    Now I sync'd with pacman -Sy
    It gave errors about not being able to find core.db and other .db files but appeared to sync the repositories anyways
    Now I started seeing lots of packages that needed upgrading, including pacman
    So I upgraded with pacman -Su and every file gave an error like the following line but then appeared to download
    error: failed retrieving file 'man-db-2.6.0.2-2-x86_64.pkg.tar.xz' from archlinux.org : Not Found
    I searched all around but haven't seen anything definitive about these kinds of errors
    One suggestion I saw was that this is connected to the pacman database version change
    Does anyone know why those errors are happening and how can I fix it?
    This is my conf file
    # /etc/pacman.conf
    # See the pacman.conf(5) manpage for option and repository directives

  • Single work item view containing all different work item types

    Hello,
    I've been trying to create a view which should contain all different work item types that are assigned to "me" and not closed. I've created a type projection and the view itself and it displays all work items. The problem I've got is that I can't set a critera
    that only shows items that aren't closed as all work item types have their own statuses instead of one common work item status.
    Does anyone any ideas around how to solve this?
    Thanks in advance!
    /Alexander

    Hi,
    I can not justifiy to my clients to purchase an application from 3k to offer something that should be trivial in an application such as service manager. Furthermore, i need sort all my active work items (IR, SR and MA) in accordance with the target date
    calculated by SLO.
    The WorkItem class has a relathionship to the type SLA Information, but type 1 to many. Anyway I could create a view that displays work items and DisplayName field from SLA (basead on first row in the relationship). However I could not display more fields.
    If I  could display TargetEndDate and Status from SLA Information, it would be a reasonable solution for my client.
    Thank´s

    HT204268; I have purchases on an aol login pre 2008 and all recent stuff under an apple id. I currently see and use everything when i login with the apple id. After March 31st will my apple id account still show and contain all?
    I understand the instructions to create a new account id (apple id) from the old aol account. However, does this mean my purchases will be split into 2 accounts; or does the fact that I currently see everything under my apple id (regardless of the purchased by username) mean this will all still appear in my current account as it does now?

    You see them where when you login your non-AOL account ?
    If you currently have two accounts (the AOL username account and an email address account) then you will continue to have two accounts, and nothing should change when you update the AOL account to be an email address (apart from how you access that account).
    You will just be renaming the account to have an email address for accessing it, not creating a new account.
