HaikuDepot won't allow one to install a package existing in more than one repo.

hrev 49884

yab 1.7.5 is hosted on the HaikuPorts depot, but 1.7.5.1, a newer version, is on the FatElk depot. even if one choses only the FatElk depot in HaikuDepot, HaikuDepot will download the older version from the HaikuPorts depot.

[korli]

Do you have yab_ide installed? Because it depends on devel:libyab, which has no compat string. Otherwise can you provide the recipe or 'package list' dump from the 1.7.5.1 hpkg?

[bbjimmy]

I think you mis-understand the error. I can install yab 1.7.5.1 from a local .hpkg file, and I can download that from the FatElk repo in a web browser or using wget, but HaikuDepot will not install from the FatElk repo.

Then same issue occurs with yab_ide-2.2.5-2, yab_ide-2.2.5-1 is on haikuports and haikudepot will not install yab_ide-2.2.5-2 from FatElk. this is a haikudepot issue.

By the way, libyab.so is up to now backward compatible. The current , 1.7.5.1, libyab.so will work with all earlier programs that rely on libyab.so.

for what it's worth:

As of right now, This is preventing anybody from installing a working yab on a recent nightly. The version in the HaikuPorts repo is broken, it uses a private api that was moved to public. The version in the FatElk repo, yab 1.7.5.2 works, but can only be downloaded via a web browser and then installed by double-clicking the .hpkg file.

If one selects yab 1.7.5.2 from the FatElk repo, HaikuDepot downloads yab 1.7.5 from the HaikuPorts repo, stating that it is downloading 1.7.5.2.

[bbjimmy]

If one does a pkgman drop-repo HaikuPorts, one can install a working yab development environment. one must then do pkgman add-repo ​http://packages.haiku-os.org/haikuports/master/repo/x86_gcc2/current to allow the normal function for non duplicated packages.

[ttcoder]

IIRC there is a "priority" mechanism that should allow for arbitration between repos..

~/Desktop> pkgman list | grep priority
                priority:  1
                priority:  1

/me wonders if it would help in this case, or is it relevant at all?

[bbjimmy]

For an experiment, I set the priority to 1 for the FatElk repo, and this allowed the package to download and install.
