Hello, Archlabs is gone . I use this distro so I wonder If I can still update it safely ?
My /etc/pacman.conf
#[testing]
#Include = /etc/pacman.d/mirrorlist
[core]
Include = /etc/pacman.d/mirrorlist
[extra]
Include = /etc/pacman.d/mirrorlist
#[community-testing]
#Include = /etc/pacman.d/mirrorlist
[community]
Include = /etc/pacman.d/mirrorlist
# The multilib repositories are enabled by default in ArchLabs.
# If you don't run 32 bit applications you may comment them out
#[multilib-testing]
#Include = /etc/pacman.d/mirrorlist
[multilib]
Include = /etc/pacman.d/mirrorlist
# [archlabs-testing]
# Server = https://pub-7d84e047b852442a86fd6d7feb1ff2cd.r2.dev/$repo/$arch
# Server = https://github.com/ArchLabs/$repo/raw/master/$arch
# Server = https://bitbucket.org/archlabslinux/$repo/raw/master/$arch
[archlabs]
Server = https://pub-7d84e047b852442a86fd6d7feb1ff2cd.r2.dev/$repo/$arch
Server = https://bitbucket.org/archlabslinux/$repo/raw/master/$arch
Server = https://github.com/ArchLabs/$repo/raw/master/$arch
Server = https://sourceforge.net/projects/archlabs-repo/files/$repo/$arch
If it is unsafe how I can turn this into a normal arch ?
You’ll need to do 4 things:
- Refresh your keyring
pacman-keyring --init pacman-keyring --populate archlinux
- Remove the archlabs section from your pacman.conf
pacman -Syyu
- Maintenance: https://wiki.archlinux.org/title/System_maintenance#Check_for_orphans_and_dropped_packages
This should be everything. You’ll need to be careful with removing packages with no upstream. I’m not sure how archlabs distributed their configuration files but if they were packages you’ll have to be selective about what you remove. Ideally you’ll slowly drop those configs for your own versions with future upgrades.
It should be okay, just comment/delete out the archlabs repos as they are dead and make sure the mirrorlist in /etc/pacman.d is actually pointing at arch repos and then just run sudo pacman -Syu. If you want/need to edit names and logos and stuff just edit /etc/os-release.
