>Description:
I use tinderbox to make a local package repository with my customizations. On
another system I request pkg to update the repo index, but will only ever do
it if I specify "-f" flag to force it. Otherwise it always says there is no
update needed, even if there is an updated list.
>How-To-Repeat:
Set up package server running lighttpd-1.4.32_1. I use this configuration for
the virtual host:
$HTTP["host"] == "pkg.kcilink.com" {
server.document-root = "/usr/local/tinderbox/packages/"
}
and in pkg.conf on the clients I set this:
PACKAGESITE : http://pkg.kcilink.com/9.1-FreeBSD/All
This is the current repo file on that server:
% ls -l /usr/local/tinderbox/packages/9.1-FreeBSD/All/repo.txz
-rw-r--r-- 1 root wheel 146096 Mar 12 14:02 /usr/local/tinderbox/packages/9.1-FreeBSD/All/repo.txz
Now, on the client system using those packages, run update:
[root@sandbox]# pkg -v
1.0.8
[root@sandbox]# ls -l /var/db/pkg/repo.sqlite
-rw-r--r-- 1 root wheel 601088 Mar 12 09:03 /var/db/pkg/repo.sqlite
[root@sandbox]# pkg update
Updating repository catalogue
Repository catalogue is up-to-date, no need to fetch fresh copy
[root@sandbox]# ls -l /var/db/pkg/repo.sqlite
-rw-r--r-- 1 root wheel 601088 Mar 12 09:03 /var/db/pkg/repo.sqlite
[root@sandbox]# pkg update -f
Updating repository catalogue
repo.txz 100% 143KB 142.7KB/s 142.7KB/s 00:00
[root@sandbox]# ls -l /var/db/pkg/repo.sqlite
-rw-r--r-- 1 root wheel 605184 Mar 12 14:29 /var/db/pkg/repo.sqlite
The only curiosity I see is that the first "pkg update" logs this on the
package server lighttpd.conf file:
192.168.7.23 pkg.kcilink.com - [12/Mar/2013:14:29:03 -0400] "GET /9.1-FreeBSD/All/repo.txz HTTP/1.1" 200 146096 "-" "pkg libfetch/2.0"
and the second update with -f logs this:
192.168.7.23 pkg.kcilink.com - [12/Mar/2013:14:29:16 -0400] "GET /9.1-FreeBSD/All/repo.txz HTTP/1.1" 200 146096 "-" "pkg libfetch/2.0"
Fetching via a snooping proxy, the only difference I see is that the "-f"
request does not send the "If-Modified-Since" header, but in either case
lighttpd sends back the same byte stream and headers in its response.
>Fix:
workaround is to always use pkg update -f.
