i have a big challenge…
After doing a pkgman full-sync, pkgman uninstalled a lot of importend libs and the one wich got installed new… didnt worked.
So now i get either missing some libs or some services are not working (netserver and so on)
I Found the state wich worked the last for me. Now i alsways swiching to this state buy choosing it on boot up.
I tried to follow some hints given on the IRC channel to switch to this last working state.
It was said that if i copy all packges from administrative/state… to the main package folder, everything would be reverted to this state… but it didnt worked out.
I also tried deleting the full-sync stated… didnt worked (hat to put them back from the trash)
I tried booting in the old state doing a pkgman update… and booting into the new “recent” updated state … didnt worked out.
So what is the proper way to switch permantly back to a former stage…
Never tried it myself…
Did you remove the newer packages before/after moving the old packages from the administration/state* folders?
Having the same packages from different hrevs might be a problem, I dunno. Activate “type-ahead filtering” in Tracker if it isn’t already and filter for “hrev”. All those newer “hrev” packages need to be replaced with the older ones, I suspect.
We still lack a nice update/revert/savepoint application…

No i didnt removed the packages… but i tried now… an still libedit.so missing… so always need to press shift… bu i will just download recently nightly and install a newer version over this broken syspartition
It was moved to a separate package but it seems the Haiku package doesn’t depend on it. It probably should, because at least Debugger needs that.[/quote]
Hmm not really… because if i boot normally… it stops with a white screen saying that this lib is missing… so no pkgman install possible
