hi,

"sudo abs" deletes the repos core, extra and testing and creates "comunity" AND "community".
i think theres something wrong with the abs-sync.

/etc/abs.conf says: REPOS=(core extra community testing)

but ls on /var/abs sais: community comunity local README
tryed differend servers. no success ;\

someone have the same problem?

The "comunity" one is dues to someone making a spelling mistake with the db scripts. I am looking into why the core/extra/testing repos did not work apart from "arch=('any')" packages.

via Mail:

Hi,

The following packages have files in the wrong place in svn. Something like <pkg>/repo/<pkg> instead of <pkg>/repo/<pkg>-<arch>.

cabal-install
codeblocks
haskell-x11
haskell-zlib
moovida

Also python-matplotlib has a package in "comunity-i686".
I will fix these up but please remove any stray files as they cause issues for the ABS scripts.

Thanks,
Allan

and in /etc/abs.conf i have:
"REPOS=(core extra community testing)"

Say abs to download the tarball instead of plain from rsync helps:
# abs -t
With "# abs" also for me it don't works.
# abs
# ls /var/abs
README community comunity local

Same problem here. ABS updated all my community files, then deleted pretty much everything else.

$ ls
README community kde-unstable local

abs project was dead?
Comment by Allan McRae (Allan) - Friday, 31 July 2009, 11:42 GMT
I know this is broken. I tried getting community to update after the switch to SVN but broke the other repos.

Should be fixed in the next day.
