 Posted: Wed Apr 17, 2024 10:47 pm Post subject: Failed to install app-alternatives/awk-4 - SOLVED |
 |
|
Installing a new system. Did the emerge-webrsync followed by emerge --sync, then did the actual emerge to update the system installed by the stage file. I used the openrc desktop multilib stage file:
| Code: | | stage3-amd64-desktop-openrc-20240414T161904Z.tar.xz |
When doing the actual emerge:
| Code: | | emerge --update --newuse --deep --with-bdeps=y @world |
I got the following:
| Code: |
(chroot) livecd / # emerge --update --newuse --deep --with-bdeps=y @world
Calculating dependencies... done!

What is with this app-alternatives thing anyway? And what is awk-4? What happened to good old fashioned awk (used to be called gawk)?
And what is all this "[ERROR] Task was destroyed but it is pending!" stuff?
And most importantly, what do I do about this?
This was a by-the-book installation, and it blew up in what looks to me like a weird way.

With these recent downloads, ensure the profile is 23.0 and not split-usr. Unless the stage3 for OpenRC says split-usr, then it is built as merged-usr. |

So, since this is a fresh install of a new system on an otherwise older machine, with no user files on it yet, should I just backup the install process and set the profile to 23, then continue the installation?
Or should I wait for a new stage file to be released and use that?

Should be OK if you change your profile to one that matches the stage3 that was used.

Thanks. I set the profile to #23 and it emerged without error.
There are too many profiles: 76 of them! There used to be just a handful of them. Why the sudden explosion of profiles? The instructions in the handbook should be updated to make it easier to determine which profile should be chosen. Initially, I just looked down the list until I saw "desktop" without the gnome, etc. and chose that, which is what I have always done. That turned out to be a "17" version, whereas I needed a "23" version. What is this all about?

We are in a profile transition period (17 -> 23). Those last for a year.

Moriah, there are many new permutations compared to the "good old days." Now there are, openrc/systemd, split-usr/not-split-usr, not to menion multilib/sololib, non-desktop/desktop/gnome/plasma; and that's just for one arch. Add in changing defaults in profiles changing between 17/17.1 and 23.0, it's a messy stew. You are not alone.

BTW What is this split-usr/not-split-usr thing?
Is that really split /usr vs not split /usr, where you need initramfs to mount /usr because it is a different filesystem from / ?
Why does that rate a different profile? Its just another mount command in the init script of your initramfs.

No.

No, but, here is a reference that may contribute to your understanding. It's somewhat incomplete, but it appears that inertia is moving us all towards merged-usr filesystem organization at some indefinite time in the future.
Here is the wiki link: https://wiki.gentoo.org/wiki/Merge-usr
For the time being, I'm dragging my feet as long as I can and maintaining the split-usr filesystem organization. Much has been written in the forums and a decent internet search should lead plenty of additional references and discussions. Many that I have found reveals a deep misunderstanding of the topic. That partly explains why the 17 to 23 profile migration has been rough going for some users.

So it looks to me like since I did a fresh install with profile 23, that everything is up to date according to the merge-usr approach. The symlinks are there in / as shown:
| Code: |
livecd / # ls -la /
total 612084
drwxr-xr-x 16 root root 272 Apr 14 13:09 .

drwxr-xr-x 8 root root 98 Apr 18 09:24 var

Am I correct in this assumption?

Yes, that's a merged-/usr filesystem layout if that's what you are asking.
