Hi, I built the other day 11.99.1 amd64 and aarch64 and upgraded a few VMs; today I decided to try a clean installation under VMWare Workstation. The has worked fine for me previously and there is no issue in running it, but in the installation process. I have another VM I use for development and when I need to upgrade some other machines, both the OS and the installed packages, I run simple-http-server over the directories that contain the necessary files, as follows:
#!/usr/pkg/bin/zsh nohup simple-http-server --ip 192.168.0.49 -p 3003 --index /bd/sysbuild/release & nohup simple-http-server --ip 192.168.0.49 -p 3004 --index /bd/pkgsrc/packages & I clean-install from the DVD image and configure the network settings of the guest, as usual; the network works as expected. The access is via http, the base directory is empty, the packages directory is All and everything used to work. However, the initial pkgin package does not get installed - pkg_add does not appear to find the package by name, the command pkg_add http://192.168.0.49/All/pkgin fails with 'no pkg for ' ... The same command succeeds if I run it from an already working 11.99.1 host using the exactly same repositories.conf file. It succeeds if I mane a softlink in the package directory called 'pkgin' pointing to the last version of the pkgin package. So it appears the installation procedure requests the exact package name and does not allow for wildcards after the package name or similar. The same happens if I complete the installation without configuring binary packages and try the same when the system is booted. Chavdar Sent with Proton Mail secure email.
