History

#1

Updated by bill-auger about 1 year ago

  • Status changed from unconfirmed to confirmed

all blacklisted packages "slip in" in the same way - they can not be blacklisted until after that happens and someone notices - those were added to the blacklist though - im not sure yet, why they were not deleted automatically

as long as 'your-freedom' is installed, it is not possible to install any of those packages - 'your-freedom' is required by 'base', which is considered to be mandatory for a fully-supported parabola system

#2

Updated by bill-auger about 1 year ago

  • Assignee set to bill-auger
  • Status changed from confirmed to in progress

the repo importer was using a stale cached copy of the blacklist

in the future, this script can be used to identify them:

#!/bin/bash

readonly PACMANCONF_FILE=/etc/pacman-all.conf
readonly BLACKLIST_FILE=/usr/share/doc/your-freedom/blacklist.txt

pacman --config=${PACMANCONF_FILE} -Sy
for ea in $(cut -d: -f1 ${BLACKLIST_FILE})
do  grep -q ^${ea}:: ${BLACKLIST_FILE} && pacman --config=${PACMANCONF_FILE} -Ssq ^${ea}$
done
