Add an option to exit from `update-core` #29

Closed techtonik closed 8 years ago

techtonik commented 8 years ago

An option to still exit from update-core endless loop would be very much appreciated for unattented installs, which are necessary for some "tool-building toolchains". =) https://github.com/mingwpy/mingwpy/pull/19#issuecomment-203234480 I just sent a letter to mailing list and then found this tracker, which seems to be the right place for such request.

There are no update-core script anymore. Read more carefully https://github.com/Alexpux/MSYS2-pacman/pull/26

@Alexpux yes, I've seen that bash script was removed. Thought that the code was just rewritten as C++ program. The option is needed to exit from this loop - https://github.com/Alexpux/MSYS2-pacman/pull/26/files#diff-2ebc1af9d6d7b2b33621d6b763fe8e8bR722

We not exit this loop to not show fork errors to users.

techtonik commented 8 years ago

Looks like --noconfirm exits automatically, is that right?

Alexpux commented 8 years ago

Yes it seems.

Alexpux commented 8 years ago

New pacman in repo now.

techtonik commented 8 years ago

Awesome. Are there any rumors when a new MSYS2 version will be released?

Alexpux commented 8 years ago

Need fix some issues before release new installers

techtonik commented 8 years ago

Any milestones to check if anything can be helped to speed up the process?

techtonik commented 8 years ago

Actually, for unattended install only .tar.xz archive is needed.
