The moonarch.install hook used to ensure /etc/paru.conf had Mode = arp
and a [moonarch-pkgbuilds] section. Both exist to let paru resolve
moonarch packages from a PKGBUILD repo — a second mechanism parallel
to the Arch registry, redundant now that the registry DB is stable.
Hook now strips the legacy config on next upgrade. Bump pkgrel so every
installed system picks up the cleanup.
README now describes the Gitea Arch registry path as the canonical
install/update mechanism — the paru --pkgbuilds fallback is no longer
advertised to users. Adds troubleshooting for missing updates (check
the repo DB directly) and file conflicts.
DECISIONS.md records why the build-and-publish workflow now wipes all
existing versions before upload, and why three packages had to be
re-registered manually.
Gitea's Arch registry doesn't regenerate the repo DB on pkgver change —
old entries linger as zombies (e.g. moonarch-git r99 stuck in moonarch.db
even though only r105 exists as a package). List all versions of each
built package and DELETE them before the upload so the DB gets rebuilt
cleanly. Bump moonarch-git pkgrel to force a rebuild and exercise the fix.
curl -sf was silencing upload errors: r105 was 'Published' six times
in a row but never landed in the registry. Capture the HTTP status
and abort on non-2xx so the run goes red and the response body shows
up in the log.
moonarch-git's runtime depends include AUR-only packages (stasis,
auto-cpufreq, ttf-ubuntusans-nerd) that plain pacman cannot resolve,
so `makepkg -s` fails with "Could not resolve all dependencies" —
even though those runtime deps aren't needed to build the package.
Extract makedepends from PKGBUILD, install them targeted (cargo/go
for Rust and Go packages; empty for moonarch-git), then run makepkg
with -d so it skips the full dep check. Rust packages still get their
compiler, moonarch-git builds without needing the AUR world.
PKGBUILDs with options=('debug') produce a main + -debug split pair.
The previous `ls -t | head -1` only uploaded one, and which one won
was mtime-dependent. Loop over all *.pkg.tar.zst and parse pkgname
per file (so -debug gets its own registry entry).
Previous -Syu triggered a full system upgrade inside the runner
container, which together with the concurrent Rust build saturated
the shared host and took Gitea down. -Sy just refreshes the package
DB, which is all makepkg -s actually needs to resolve current deps.
Runner container has a cached pacman DB that lists package versions
already rotated off the mirrors, causing 404s when makepkg -s tries
to pull makedepends (gtk4, mesa, llvm-libs). Sync the DB first.
makepkg -sfd skipped dependency checks, preventing `-s` from pulling
in rust/cargo (moonlock/moongreet/moonset) and go (sshfsc). Builds
failed with `cargo: command not found`. Remove `-d`; `-s` now installs
makedepends via pacman before the build.
