Re: [SOLVED - Hurrah!] Upgrading from a truly ancient install

The question is how you can update a 2017era machine to latest state.  You've two problems; your outdated pacman doesn't support zst compression, and it won't have the right keys.  You might be able to find deep42thousht's publishing key on a keyserver somewhere which would solve that problem, for example .  Download that and import it into the gpg home directory of /etc/pacman.d/gnupg.  And you'll need the last version of pacman that came in an xz package but supprorted xst compression hopefully such as this one.

1. Import the key, and download the pacman package.
2. Try '# pacman -U ~/Downloads/pacman-*' to upgrade your pacman that far.
3. Assuming everything's worked to far, update your keyring so that's in a better known state (# pacman -Syu archlinux32-keyring)
4. '# pacman -S pacman' to get pacman up to latest
5. '# pacman -Syu' to get everything else up to date

Hopefully that will get you in a better situation than you are now.  It's always possible I've missed some catch that will stop you at some point or another, but that's why I've written this as a forum post and not on a wiki or blog somewhere I guess.

Minimum space required to install the installation on device (Android smartphone) can also be a strong motivator here:
1. aarch64 1500MB
2. arm7 1250MB
3. x86_64 800MB

The minimum install size for Arch Linux 32 appears to be around 400 megabytes.

Yeah, that's cause you didn't do what I said.  I told you to download a specific version of pacman that comes in a xz format but ought to support xst packages.  You've tried to install an xst package without having a pacman that can cope with that.  Luckiy the version you need is still on the packages archive, and I linked to it.  Download that and try to install it.

Edit: The key is imported again because you never imported it into pacman's key storre.  You imported it into your users key store, as if you were going to send him an email or something.  I'm not sure if pacman saying it's done it now has fixed it for you or not though.

Edit2: I've updated the subject of this thread.  Each time I forget about it then it pops up again saying 'File is corrupt' I have to remember what it's all about.  So I've changed it to something hopefully more reminiscent.

All the work being done is in the root user account in PRoot, not a user account.  Configuring the user account comes after the root account is configured, which we're working on at present.

There are two abstraction layers that we are dealing with here at this topic:
1. PRoot enables using Linux in a chroot environment,
2. QEMU emulates architectures.

The new title reflects what is happening here at present.  If I ever get around to finishing my autumn chores, I will check if there is a working 386 box around to try to make a new root file system.  I was hoping that updating the package is easier.   Do you have any more suggestions as to what can be updated?

Re: [SOLVED - Hurrah!] Upgrading from a truly ancient install

You'd need to install the key before you try to pacman -U that package I think.

I'm still not convinced you don't need a --homedir /etc/pacman.d/gnupg added to your --recv-keys call.  Without that I'd expect gpg to create a key store in /root, which still isn't the right place for pacman to pick it up from.  You can either do that once, or use a --gpgdir argument to pacman, but the danger in doing that is you'd need to keep remembering to do that going forward.  Better to just import it once into the right place.

I just noticed that too.  The 'gpg' command:

gpg --keyserver keyserver.ubuntu.com --recv-keys 0x194e37a47a4c671807bacb37b1117bc1094ea6e9 ;

failed to excecute correctly as:

9 packets transmitted, 0 received, 100% packet loss, time 8112ms

Is there an alternate keyserver that you can recommend?

The command 'keys' handles the keyring setup:

grep ^pacman ~/arch/root/bin/keys

Can you elaborate more about this please?

Re: [SOLVED - Hurrah!] Upgrading from a truly ancient install

--gpgdir is an option to pacman to specify where your non-standard gpg directory is.  The more correct option you can supply to gpg is called --homedir.

Edit: To be fair, the log of the automated script you posted at 15:55 today does seem to be using the --gpgdir option to make pacman use the /root gnupg store.  But if you're no longer using the automated script and trying to update the working but old system it produced, then doing it the proper way sounds better to me.  But to an extent, it depends where you're trying to end up here; if your wanting to update the automatic instructions so that others can follow, then stick with what it's doing already, but if your aim is just to get a working system for yourself that you can continue to use going forward then doing the right thing is best practice.

Re: [SOLVED - Hurrah!] Upgrading from a truly ancient install

Yeah, I'm not sure what's up with that trust message.  I don't normally make use of the trust features in my own gpg features.  Maybe gpg --homedir /etc/pacman.d/gnupg --update-trustdb will help, I'm not sure.  But trying that on my own gpg homedir it seems that none of the keys there are actually trusted yet on my machine, including deep42thought's key.

Edit: Actually it's not deep42thought's key that's untrusted.  It's an older one probably from before the arch32 split.  The update-trustdb ran through all of those old keys but doesn't ask me about his deek42thought key, so presumably that one is already trusted.

Re: [SOLVED - Hurrah!] Upgrading from a truly ancient install

It turns out that:

gpg --homedir /etc/pacman.d/gnupg --update-trustdb --yes

Adding --yes did not alleviate the excessive tapping as expected.  However moving the gpg import statement before did:

pacman-key --populate

Command order change resolved importing the keys easily.  After iterating a couple more versions, after getting pacman installed, this error appears:

This error is blocking further progress.

pacman -Fo libcrypto.so.1.1

It appears at least one more package wants individual updating also;  Do you know which package libcrypto.so.1.1 belongs to?

After a little more digging in the Internet I found an answer to this question:

openssl-1.1.1.d-2.0-i686.pkg.tar.xz

Re: [SOLVED - Hurrah!] Upgrading from a truly ancient install

The answer was NOT the answer:

http://archive.archlinux32.org/packages/o/openssl/openssl-1.1.0.g-1-i686.pkg.tar.xz

Possibly this version which was being tested would have the file that was being sought.  The result was negative.  This version was just tested:

openssl-1.1.0.d-1-i686.pkg.tar.xz

It looked promising too:

pacman-conf: /usr/lib/libc.so.6: version `GLIBC_2.27' not found (required by pacman-conf)

Unfortunately only the error has morphed.   The final result is yet to be achieved.

There is also another use case I would like to bring up here for Arch Linux 32 that I have not mentioned yet.  Smartphone armv7l architecture is 32-bit.  Installing Arch Linux x86_64 in armv7l causes some Arch Linux x86_64 programs to break.  This is not the case with aarch64 which is 64-bit architecture.

Re: [SOLVED - Hurrah!] Upgrading from a truly ancient install

This latest attempt with:

openssl-1.0-1.0.2.k-1-i686.pkg.tar.xz

failed with:

pacman-conf: error while loading shared libraries: libcrypto.so.1.1: cannot open shared object file: No such file or directory

These are the files used in this attempt:

Re: [SOLVED - Hurrah!] Upgrading from a truly ancient install

This latest attempt with:

openssl-1.1.1-1.0-i686.pkg.tar.xz

failed with:

pacman-conf: error while loading shared libraries: libcrypto.so.1.0.0: cannot open shared object file: No such file or directory

These are the files used in this attempt:

archlinux32-keyring-20191103-1.0-any.pkg.tar.xz pacman-5.2.1-1.4-i686.pkg.tar.xz openssl-1.1.1-1.0-i686.pkg.tar.xz

I must say I am a little befuddled here.  It appears that it desires the other version regardless of which one is installed smile

Re: [SOLVED - Hurrah!] Upgrading from a truly ancient install

Now you've got pacman partially upgraded (it only failed in the post-transaction hooks which AFAIK shouldn't result in a roll back), can you not do a '# pacman -Syu'?  That's the easiest to get at promised good set of packages we all use.

Total Download Size:     3.39 MiB
Total Installed Size:  455.17 MiB
Net Upgrade Size:      123.90 MiB

All the keys were rejected;  I will try again.  Success appears to be linked with finding a matching set for:

archlinux32-keyring
openssl
pacman

How would you match these three ancients?

Re: [SOLVED - Hurrah!] Upgrading from a truly ancient install

pacman -Syu                                                                            
pacman: error while loading shared libraries: libcrypto.so.1.0.0: cannot open shared object file: No such file or directory

This error occurs when these three packages are updated first:

archlinux32-keyring-20191103-1.0-any.pkg.tar.xz
openssl-1.1.1-1.0-i686.pkg.tar.xz
pacman-5.2.1-1.4-i686.pkg.tar.xz

These three packages installed well.  The 'libcrypto.so.1.0.0' error is intriguing. Depending on the versions of the packages that were used, sometimes 'libcrypto.so.1.1' would be the one that's missing.  What is the best match for these three packages?
