The version at github (https://github.com/helixarch/debtap) has an updated script which seems to work.

Ubuntu has changed packages.ubuntu.com to https only, which breaks the script at: "ubuntu_latest_stable_version=`curl -s http://packages.ubuntu.com ..." Replacing http with https fixes the issue.

@ggalt I didn't have that chance either, because I don't own any Raspberry Pi or similar ARM-based computer

OK, ignore the initial message, I think I've figured it out. I took a look at the script and it anticipates either an i386 or x86_64 architecture -- no other architectures (perhaps it should just bail at this point??). I added 'armhf' as a viable architecture to the script, updated the Debian version from Sid to Jessie and skipped the Ubuntu packages since there isn't a version of Ubuntu for Raspberry Pis. It runs and outputs packages, but I haven't had a chance to test if they work.

I'm running debtap for the first time (on a Raspberry Pi). Running sudo debtap -u, the update fails because it's getting a 404 error from some URL it is accessing. I get the following: ==> Synchronizing debtap database... % Total % Received % Xferd Average Speed Time Time Time Current Dload Upload Total Spent Left Speed 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 --:--:-- --:--:-- --:--:-- 0 curl: (22) The requested URL returned error: 404 Not Found gzip: /var/cache/debtap/debian-packages-files.gz: unexpected end of file % Total % Received % Xferd Average Speed Time Time Time Current Dload Upload Total Spent Left Speed 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 --:--:-- --:--:-- --:--:-- 0 curl: (22) The requested URL returned error: 404 Not Found gzip: /var/cache/debtap/ubuntu-packages-files.gz: unexpected end of file Synchronization failed. Exiting... Thoughts?

@mrbigmouth502 "As you can see, I'm running Manjaro instead of straight Arch. Could this perhaps be causing it to fail?" Yes, debtap doesn't work on Manjaro, your distro doesn't support pkgfile

@IlikePepsi I'm experiencing virtually the same problem. Whenever I try to run debtap -u it throws 404 errors for nearly every server it tries, and for the last few servers it tries connections either get refused, or return garbage data: warning: download failed: ftp://kibo.remi.lu/pub/stable/multilib/x86_64/multilib.files: RETR response: 550 warning: download failed: ftp://kibo.remi.lu/pub/stable/extra/x86_64/extra.files: RETR response: 550 warning: download failed: ftp://kibo.remi.lu/pub/stable/community/x86_64/community.files: RETR response: 550 warning: download failed: ftp://kibo.remi.lu/pub/stable/core/x86_64/core.files: RETR response: 550 warning: download failed: http://mirrors.ustc.edu.cn/manjaro/stable/extra/x86_64/extra.files: Failed to connect to mirrors.ustc.edu.cn port 80: Connection refused warning: download failed: http://mirrors.ustc.edu.cn/manjaro/stable/core/x86_64/core.files: Failed to connect to mirrors.ustc.edu.cn port 80: Connection refused warning: download failed: http://mirrors.ustc.edu.cn/manjaro/stable/multilib/x86_64/multilib.files: Failed to connect to mirrors.ustc.edu.cn port 80: Connection refused warning: download failed: http://mirrors.ustc.edu.cn/manjaro/stable/community/x86_64/community.files: Failed to connect to mirrors.ustc.edu.cn port 80: Connection refused warning: download failed: https://repo.rhindon.net/manjaro/stable/community/x86_64/community.files: Failed to connect to mirrors.ustc.edu.cn port 80: Connection refused warning: download failed: https://repo.rhindon.net/manjaro/stable/extra/x86_64/extra.files: Failed to connect to mirrors.ustc.edu.cn port 80: Connection refused warning: download failed: https://repo.rhindon.net/manjaro/stable/core/x86_64/core.files: Failed to connect to mirrors.ustc.edu.cn port 80: Connection refused warning: download failed: https://repo.rhindon.net/manjaro/stable/multilib/x86_64/multilib.files: Failed to connect to mirrors.ustc.edu.cn port 80: Connection refused warning: download failed: http://ftp.dei.uc.pt/pub/linux/manjaro/stable/community/x86_64/community.files: Failed to connect to mirrors.ustc.edu.cn port 80: Connection refused warning: download failed: http://ftp.dei.uc.pt/pub/linux/manjaro/stable/multilib/x86_64/multilib.files: Failed to connect to mirrors.ustc.edu.cn port 80: Connection refused warning: download failed: http://ftp.dei.uc.pt/pub/linux/manjaro/stable/extra/x86_64/extra.files: Failed to connect to mirrors.ustc.edu.cn port 80: Connection refused warning: download failed: http://ftp.dei.uc.pt/pub/linux/manjaro/stable/core/x86_64/core.files: Failed to connect to mirrors.ustc.edu.cn port 80: Connection refused download complete: community [ 169.0 B 145B/s 0 remaining] download complete: multilib [ 169.0 B 151B/s 0 remaining] error: failed to create archive reader for community: Invalid or incomplete multibyte or wide character download complete: extra [ 169.0 B 152B/s 0 remaining] error: failed to create archive reader for multilib: Invalid or incomplete multibyte or wide character download complete: core [ 169.0 B 152B/s 0 remaining] error: failed to create archive reader for extra: Invalid or incomplete multibyte or wide character error: failed to create archive reader for core: Invalid or incomplete multibyte or wide character :: download complete in 71.91s < 676.0 B 9.00B/s 4 files > :: waiting for 1 process to finish repacking repos...

pkgfile is not available in AUR, at least ATT. pkgfile-git is and supplies pkgfile. Thank you for debtap and the fix too!

@grayich What is your distro?

grayich commented on 2016-09-22 19:03 (UTC)

pkgfile (building from AUR) error: target not found: pkgfile
