Solved Help needed: synth

[Argentum]

Hello,

I have been using portupgrade so far for ports management. Now trying to migrate to synth.

Unfortunately, when trying to synth upgrade-system the process ends with error

Regenerating flavor index: this may take a while ...
Scanning entire ports tree.
 progress: 99.36%
culprit: x11-themes/numix-theme
  Scan aborted because 'make' encounted an error in the Makefile.
  x11-themes/numix-theme (return code = 1)
Flavor index generation failed: ports scan

The ports tree is up to date and seems that there is no such port in the tree.

numix-theme is renamed to numix-gtk-theme. The change is committed today (PR 247103), should be available in the ports tree shorty (hours?). I would try in a few hours again, or so long until the port is available, afterwards delete the old port, install new. Or delete now, to resolve synth lock up.

I will wait and try again tomorrow. But anyway, on that machine, I had no such port installed.

Also, tried this on a Bhyve VM and got error message after synth status:

Regenerating flavor index: this may take a while ...

raised REPLICANT.SCENARIO_UNEXPECTED : /sbin/mount -t tmpfs tmpfs /usr/obj/synth-live/SL09 => failed with code 1

What is this?

The port is availaible now.

I assumed the problem originated from the renaming of a installed port, but actually the x11-themes/Makefile has a typo, indicated in the error message:

Scan aborted because 'make' encounted an error in the Makefile.

The categories Makefile's numix theme port hasn't been updated to the new name. Until it's corrected upstream (if somebody files a bug report) you can change it manually to SUBDIR += numix-gtk-theme, and re-run synth.

Thank You!
Also had to remove the line

   SUBDIR += numix-theme

from x11-themes/Makefile and that made my synth work.
