FreeBSD-base has a wrong packagesite

freezr · Wednesday at 5:02 AM

Hi guys,

I am trying to make friend with FreeBSD-base but it looks like it is quite picky and selective...

I use this repository as recommended by the Handbook:

Code:

FreeBSD-base {
    url = "pkg+https://pkg.freebsd.org/${ABI}/base_release_${VERSION_MINOR}";
    mirror_type = "srv";
    signature_type = "fingerprints";
    fingerprints = "/usr/share/keys/pkg";
    enabled = yes;
}

However I get a lot of complains:

Code:

# pkg update -r FreeBSD-base

How can I fix this?

Thanks...

The problem is your trusted keys directory. You can run the following commands to fetch the keys, then set your fingerprints to "/usr/share/keys/pkgbase-${VERSION_MAJOR}"

1. mkdir -p /usr/share/keys/pkgbase-15/trusted
2. fetch -o "/usr/share/keys/pkgbase-15/trusted" https://cgit.freebsd.org/src/tree/share/keys/pkgbase-15/trusted/awskms-15
3. fetch -o "/usr/share/keys/pkgbase-15/trusted" https://cgit.freebsd.org/src/tree/share/keys/pkgbase-15/trusted/backup-signing-15

Shouldn't be key provided during the installation time?

Change the fingerprints to: fingerprints = "/usr/share/keys/pkgbase-${VERSION_MAJOR}";

Why base_release_0 uses /usr/share/keys/pkgbase-15 and base_latest/base_weekly uses /usr/share/keys/pkg i don't know.

Is this confirmed? That base_release uses pkgbase-VERSION AND base_latest and base_weekly use pkg only

That solved the issue... However it is totally confused...
