Switching ports configuration doesn’t work when /usr/ports is a ZFS mount point #6

Closed djfiander closed 3 years ago

On my system /usr/ports is a separate ZFS file system, so trying to move it out of the way to switch from current to quarterly fails.

What version of desktop-installer and auto-admin are you running? Please send the output of the following:

pkg info auto-admin desktop-installer

djfiander commented 3 years ago

auto-admin-0.6.10 desktop-installer-0.6.19

These are the versions that were installed when I ran "pkg install desktop-installer" on a fresh 12.2 install.

That's what I suspected. The ZFS issue has been resolved in newer versions. You can do one of the following:

  1. Update to latest packages by running auto-pkg-latest or choosing the option in desktop-installer
  2. Wait for the 2021Q1 package set, which will contain the fix in 0.7.1. A standard pkg upgrade should take care of it in the next few days. I'll be committing even newer versions to both latest and 2020Q1 once the cut-over to git is complete.
  3. If you want to live on the edge, you can also run the work-in-progress version:
auto-freebsd-wip-checkout
wip-reinstall-port auto-admin
wip-reinstall-port desktop-installer

Great. Thanks!
