Pacman-mirrors Interactive mode brocken

[scachemaille]

I just tried sudo pacman-mirros -i and it seems broken. I have the following error:

   0.339 Germany        : https://mirror.philpot.de/manjaro/
   0.134 Germany        : http://mirror.philpot.de/manjaro/

pacman-mirrors 4.7.5-1

Can confirm this with 4.7.6-2 as well. It's excatly the same error.

Same error Version 4.7.6

[fhdk]

File "/usr/lib/python3.6/site-packages/pacman_mirrors/dialogs/graphicalui.py", line 54, in __init__
    "{}h {}m".format(server["last_sync"][:2]

This lead me to think that some data is missing in the status.json file.

Under which conditions does the error occur?

When the error occurs what is the content of custom-mirrors.json (if any) and status.json from /var/lib/pacman-mirrors?

I cant reproduce it.

[Skycoder42]

Here are my files, right after running sudo pacmam-mirrors -i. I also added pacman-mirrors.conf.

• pacman-mirrors.conf
• custom-mirrors.json
• status.json

[fhdk]

Your pacman-mirrors.conf contains invalid settings. The current valid configuration is here

The other files is OK.

Using the command mentioned in OP

sudo pacman-mirrors -i

I cannot reproduce the issue. Not even with a full mirror pool. (pacman-mirrors -c all)

[petsam]

My pacman-mirrors.conf

##
#/etc/pacman-mirrors.conf
##

#Branch Pacman should use (stable, testing, unstable)
Branch = testing

@Skycoder42

right after running sudo pacmam-mirrors -i

Could you copy status.json and custom-mirrors.json before you it?

[fhdk]

@Skycoder42 Are you running on Wayland?

Is it on TTY?

[xircon]

Same error. Plasma xorg. first.zip second.zip

First - before interactive Second - After.

[xircon]

Just updated to pacman-mirrors-4.8.1-3 - still crashing in interactive mode.

[fhdk]

@xircon Could you post the error message from 4.8.1-3?

[commonsourcecs]

v. 4.7.6-2 Failing for me with this return:

pacman-mirrors.tar.gz I had run '-i' before creating the first archive already, but here is one after command fail again: pacman-mirrors2.tar.gz

@xircon @commonsourcecs

That is most weird - that code does not existin 4.8.1

File "/usr/lib/python3.6/site-packages/pacman_mirrors/dialogs/graphicalui.py", line 54, in __init__
    "{}h {}m".format(server["last_sync"][:2],

[commonsourcecs]

Found source for me. '-i' fails when there is any discrepancy in the list. In my region/list, there is one mirror currently Timed Out. To test, I switched to Netherlands (all mirrors active and synced to Testing). Then ran '-i' on its own again. That worked.

[xircon]

Had to nip out - 4.8.1-5 same problems - do you want the zip?

[xircon]

Yes, mirror times out:

   0.213 Germany        : https://mirror.netcologne.de/manjaro/
   ..... Germany        : https://repo.rhindon.net/manjaro/
   ..... Germany        : https://repo.stdout.net/manjaro/
.: ERROR [Errno -2] Name or service not known 'https://repo.stdout.net/manjaro/'

Could be the problem?

[bogdancovaciu]

Hello, Finally i'm here too, even if i feel that is way too overwhelming. Here are the files you requested on manjaro forum: pacman_mirrors_1.zip pacman_mirrors_2.zip

Are in the order you requested and hopefully helpful!

[commonsourcecs]

4.8.1-1 also Confirmed that '-i' fails with list containing 'Timed Out' mirrors but succeeds on list without. This can also be mitigated for lists with bad mirror, as long as another option is passed such as using -ic. It would appear -i needs help sorting or making sense of oddities in the list. (while simple '-a' seems deprecated now, '--api' or '-B' no longer works in 4.8.1-1 though)

[fhdk]

Yes - the api is my bad - I added some checks for any api related argument eg -B without the actual --api present - and it failed me. This has been corrected.

[Skycoder42]

With version Version 4.8.1dev (4.8.1-6) the error message has changed a little:

Traceback (most recent call last):
  File "/usr/bin/pacman-mirrors", line 57, in <module>
    pm.run()
  File "/usr/lib/python3.6/site-packages/pacman_mirrors/pacman_mirrors.py", line 853, in run
    self.build_interactive_mirror_list()
  File "/usr/lib/python3.6/site-packages/pacman_mirrors/pacman_mirrors.py", line 585, in build_interactive_mirror_list

    "last_sync": "{}h {}m".format(mirror["last_sync"][:2].replace(":", ""),
TypeError: 'int' object is not subscriptable

EDIT: I too have the mirror that times out. After removing the mirror from the custom-mirrors.json (or removing the file) it worked again (The speedtest before still tests the broken mirror, but as it is not the custom-mirrors.json it works fine). Note: The entry hat -1 for all 3 branches, so it was easy to find.

@fhdk Im using kwin with X11, not wayland. And yes, it's a normal graphical console, aka a tty. But as it seems the reson is are the broken custom mirrors.

[fhdk]

The issue has been solved with the release of 4.8.2
