History
Updated by freemor about 5 years ago
just tested in my fully -Suy'd i686 librechroot
worked fine
so I guess the question becomes what is the difference between the two

Please, check your mirrorlist file

It only contains the following (it's a chroot made with librechroot):
Server = https://redirector.parabola.nu/$repo/os/$arch
Updated by bill-auger almost 5 years ago
i can confirm that inside the chroot, the packages are not available (same result with `librechroot -n i686 install-name git`) - however, on an installed i686 system it succeeds, but gives a different error:
# pacman -S git

Updated by freemor almost 5 years ago
may be a redirector problem
the mirrir list in my i686 chrrot is different from @GNUtoo's
[root@freemor /]# cat /etc/pacman.d/mirrorlist Server = https://repo.parabola.nu/$repo/os/$arch
Updated by bill-auger almost 5 years ago
i concur: the problem must be with the redirector - i just made a fresh i686 librechroot yesterday and it matches GNUtoo's
[root@bill /]# cat /etc/pacman.d/mirrorlist Server = https://redirector.parabola.nu/$repo/os/$arch
Updated by bill-auger almost 5 years ago
FWIW, i think repo.parabola.nu is the appropriate "mirror", as it is the canonical replica that all other mirrors sync with - so maybe we should rename this ticket to something like: "librechroot should use the winston mirror" and move it to the libretools tracker
that o/c does not address the core issue which is: "why are some of the mirrors missing those packages for such an extended period"; which would be a different issue
i will add that, you can always specify a mirrorlist with the '-C' CLI option to `librechroot`, such as:
# librechroot -n i686 -C /path/to/custom-mirrorlist
Updated by bill-auger almost 5 years ago
- Priority changed from bug to wish
- Subject changed from i686: cannot install git due to 404 when retriving git and some of its perl dependencies (perl-error, perl-timedate, perl-mailtools) to librechroot should use the winston mirror exclusively
- Tracker changed from Bug to Housekeeping
Updated by bill-auger about 4 years ago
- Assignee set to bill-auger
i pushed a change to libretools.git that (i think) will accomplish this - the package has not been built yet though
