Mist doesn't show MPR packages #36

Open i-can-not-program opened 2 years ago

i-can-not-program commented 2 years ago

OS: Debian Sid Mist version: latest git

Searching for an MPR package with Mist doesn't show any results, unless the package is also in apt, and returns an exit code of 0 (searching for a nonexistent package returns an exit code of 69). mist list also doesn't show them.

Also, mist update gives these errors:

Err: Failed to process MPR package 'libx52'. The package won't be available to install from the MPR.
Err: Failed to process MPR package 'bashtop-git'. The package won't be available to install from the MPR.

Thanks for reporting the issue! I'm working on makedeb and then the MPR right now so I can't guarantee I can work on this right away, but I'll get to it as soon as I can.

and returns an exit code of 0

Does that happen even if no package is found?

Also, mist update gives these errors

Those two errors are normal, it's just some things wrong with the MPR packages themselves. They shouldn't be affecting the output of mist list or mist search at all.

It only returns 0 if there are results, but if there aren't any results, it returns 69.

$ mist search melonds
$ echo $?
0
$ mist search "text that won't return results"
$ echo $?
69

So it can see that there are results, but it's not showing them. And it only happens on MPR packages.
