Updated by Kill Bill almost 8 years ago

Third round of pkg idiocy, now pkg getting more schizo, first wants to reinstall itself, then changes its mind, first it can see openvpn conflict, seconds later it cannot see any conflict at all, and then it does absolutely nothing again.

After Round 5 (same output as Round 4 and another reboot later), the next generation thing by some huge miracle actually (probably) did something:

So, I might finally have 2.3.3-RC installed, or not. I have no idea how to verify with the next generation random failure generator.

My workaround for that was switching to development then back to stable.

Yeh, it is a pain that this stuff does not "just work".

  • Target version changed from 2.3.3 to 2.4.0

I've already did changes on pfSense-upgrade to force it to upgrade (or even downgrade) pfSense-repo package. Lets take care to avoid same problem on 2.4.0

It's broken even with snapshots. The goddamn thing reliably bombs out during post-"upgrade" reboot on

pkg: https://beta.pfsense.org/packages/pfSense_v2_3_3_amd64-pfSense_v2_3_3/All/pkg-1.9.4_1.txz: No address record

Of course there's nothing wrong with address record and the same box fetches the pkg just fine when it's booted. So, whatever is in the output, it's not showing anything relevant, just bogus junk.

Another thing: to get the 2.3.3 snapshots box switch to the stable branch, this braindead drill seems to be absolutely required:

- switch branch back to development in GUI, otherwise you won't get anywhere
- 13/ from console, decline upgrade - without this, you won't move anywhere. This picks up some 2.3.3 snapshot for god knows what reason.
- switch branch to stable in GUI
- 13/ from console, decline upgrade - without this, you again won't move anywhere. This again picks up some 2.3.3 snapshot, god knows why.
- switch branch to development in GUI
- 13/ from console, decline upgrade - without this, still no luck. This picks up 2.3.4 snapshot, that at least finally makes sense.
- switch branch to stable in GUI
- 13/ from console - NOW it picks up 2.3.3 stable, incredible!!!

Christ... Argh.

Now I understood what happened here. RC packages were held at beta.pfsense.org instead of pkg.pfSense.org and this caused all confusion.

I'll change code and next RCs will stay in pkg.pfsense.org as well
