Housekeeping #2159
Issues with arch-arm migration guide
0%
Description
I recently migrated my system (Chromebook C201) from ALARM to Parabola, using the guidelines here. I got through it, but experienced a handful of issues along the way:
- The Parabola armv7 pacman package seems to depend on 'archlinux-keyring' and 'archlinux32-keyring'; however, the instructions do not say to install either of these before upgrading to the Parabola pacman. So, I had to switch the mirrors back to ALARM again, so I could install these. It seems strange that the Parabola version of pacman should depend on these, when the ALARM version doesn't.
- Before running 'pacman -Suu', pacman -Sy should be run first, after updating pacman.conf, as the database needs to be updated.

Perhaps it would be better to break these out into separate issues?
it would - # 3 and # 4 could be bugs - i think the first two are probably just documentation issues, so they could stay together in this issue

Ok, I have broken out # 3 and # 4 into separate issues.
I'll be happy to help update the wiki page for # 1 and # 2, if that's all that needs to be done? (assuming I can)

yes those instructions you suggested look correct - yes anyone can edit the wiki - and yes please do
AFAIK we install all 4 keyrings on all archs now
archlinux-keyring
archlinux32-keyring
archlinuxarm-keyring
