Hi,

During an automatic install with the latest iso (2011.04.03), pacman
complained that /mnt/var/lib/pacman/sync/core.db wasn't there. It seems
core.db.tar.gz is present in /src/core/pkg/core.db.tar.gz

I have seen on the forum an issue that might be related. So sorry if
this is already fixed. But is it ?

Thanks

Charles

Hi,

As you guys are not very inspired by the problem ;), I am answering it my self. But I still need some help.

The installation process stops at the line "$PACMAN_TARGET -Sy >$LOG 2>&1 || return 1" in lib-pacman.sh. If I try to run manually the command, which is "pacman --conf /tmp/pacman.conf", it actually doesn't work. It seems it is failing because the core.db file is missing. If I add a link with "ln -s core.db.tar.gz core.db", then it's working again.

I don't know why this link doesn't exists there (it is in the archlinux mirror), so probably we have to add it. I need some help there.

And also, it wasn't a problem with pacman 3.4 but it became a problem with 3.5.
