Apparently, repo DBs aren't getting updated (on central, not just mirrors). It happened to current, and it's ongoing with community.

See this forum thread: http://bbs.archlinux.org/viewtopic.php?pid=251767#p251767

This is being caused by a db-enforced limit of 32 character package names. It seems stuff goes real haywire if you exceed that limit (greeeat). I don't have time to really take a good look at this until sunday night.

or just rename the package that exceeds the 32 character limit.

I'd just like to mention it's the same story for arch64. it seems to update okay now on arch32, but the arch64 community db file is still on, hmm, 26th of may...

So it could be that whatever fixed the i686 community db file to update itself properly might fix the arch64 repos, as the breakage seems to have occured about the same time (give a day or two for arch64 repos being a bit behind).

If there's anything one could do, i.e. investigate something somehow, I'd gladly help out.

Just noticed that 32bit community.db.tar.gz is up to date, but the 64bit community.db.tar.gz file is dated 26 May 2007.

Could anyone confirm working on this, or any work being done? It's somewhat frustrating to not know whether the bug is even reviewed, it's a pretty serious issue.

I don't know how the devs do it here, but ofcourse if you rather spend your time on fixing issues and therefore don't type much here that's more than okay by me. In fact, anything is okay, since you guys do a good job. It would be nice however had we known anything of the progress or suggestions, maybe there is some dev discussion on this issue already? Especially since a very similar, if not same, problem existed for 32bit, and has been aparently fixed.

Two heads' are better than one anyway, and if the community had some access to the aformentioned ongoing discussions, we may be able to help out too perhaphs.

Cheers,

Ok, I've just noticed now that two people are assigned to the project, disregard the first sentence in that case ;) Sorry.

Seems to update fine now. Someone preferably should investigate if it's fixed for good and close this maybe?

Cheers.
