[Important] Change required for nightly and r1beta2 users

Nightly users will need to “re-add” their release repos to update to hrev55184 and beyond. This change is part of a long-term improvement of our haiku / haikuports repo identifiers.

These commands need run in the terminal.

Check your current repositories:

pkgman list-repo

Nightly Users

Re-add HaikuPorts

pkgman drop-repo HaikuPorts
pkgman add-repo https://eu.hpkg.haiku-os.org/haikuports/master/$(getarch)/current

Re-add Haiku:

pkgman drop-repo Haiku
pkgman add-repo https://eu.hpkg.haiku-os.org/haiku/master/$(getarch)/current

R1/beta2 users

Re-add HaikuPorts

pkgman drop-repo HaikuPorts
pkgman add-repo https://eu.hpkg.haiku-os.org/haikuports/master/$(getarch)/current

Summary

The “identifier” will change from https://hpkg.... to tag:haiku.... for both Haiku, and HaikuPorts on nightly installs (this identifier will only change for HaikuPorts on r1beta2 installs) Once you see the new identifiers, you have been successfully changed over to the new repo id.

This change will not be required for r1/beta3 users once it comes out
