Repos to use for Rolling Release?
|
|
Just downloaded and installed 17.01 and it is awesome!
I noticed in update manager that not many repos were ticked. If I want a Rolling Release what are all repos that I need ticked? Thanks.
For full rolling, just tick all the ones unticked and you'll notice updates rolling in right away.
What if I don't want rolling release? Leave sources.list as it is?
Yes, then you only get updates through our own channels (those labelled netrunner-1701).
Example is firefox, which should update after a fresh install since we provided a newer version via the repo labelled "plasmazilla".
What if I use firefox-esr from snapshot? It's already out of date.
I feel vulnerable.
When are the Netrunner channels updated to allow for rolling?
Please, let us know 
They should be now! I updated the initial comment and blogpost.
That's awesome!
So, to enable rolling, I just tick the first repository, leaving the backports entries? Or, do I check everything?
On the chance someone else is stuck where I stubbed my toe today:
"Click all repos" won't work if you do not have the appropriate repos. Ahhhh! I spent a couple hours tracking this down. I HAD some repos containing the word backport SO I ASSUMED these were the ones. I think perhaps the repo structure has been evolving since the time of my installer. Anyway, I'm golden after adding this repo: http://ds9-eu.s3-website.eu-central-1.amazonaws.com/dci/packages/netrunner/ netrunner-backports backports calamares ds9-artwork ds9-common extras frameworks kde-applications netrunner-desktop netrunner plasma plasmazilla qt5 |
