| + | |||
| + | <code> | ||
| + | pacman -Sy | ||
| + | </code> | ||
| + | ====== Server Side ====== | ||
| + | |||
| + | Currently the repo is hosted on mozart.acm.cs | ||
| + | |||
| + | The files are located under the standard archlinux http root /srv/http | ||
| + | |||
| + | Clone the repo and build the packages with makepkg. All the current version symlinks should be in place, but double check if you have updated a version. | ||
| + | |||
| + | For more information read the Arch Linux pages on custom repos and PKGBUILDs | ||

| + | - Log into mozart.acm.cs and go to /srv/http/acm-packages | ||
| + | - Run "sudo su http -s /bin/bash" | ||
| + | - Run "git pull origin master" | ||
| + | - Enter a username and password to access the git repo | ||
| + | - Navigate to the directory with the updated package | ||
| + | - Run "makepkg" to generate the new pkg.tar.gz file | ||
| + | - Navigate one directory up to the "archlinux" directory of the repo | ||
| + | - Create a symbolic link to the new package file in this directory "ln -s <package_dir>/<package_tar> <package_tar>" | ||
| + | - Run "repo-add uicacm.db.tar.gz <package_tar>" | ||
| + | - Done | ||
