pacman's state directory said place ".", which resolves to /var/lib/pacman: the
package manager's database directory. The node-engine used it as found and
reported it unhealthy on every machine, and wrote keeper.json into it. It is now
the mesh's directory for the module (place "mesh", /var/lib/mesh/pacman), as
docker's is; keeper.json, the keeper's bus secret and the root helper's socket
follow through ${dir:state}.
checks/owned rule 5 refuses a directory that is, lies in or holds a /var/lib
directory a system package owns (checks/owned/system, read from shanks through
pacman_owns and tmpfiles.d), and any resource inside one. systemd and postgres
collide today and are listed in checks/owned/system-known under issue 1873; that
list only shrinks.
pacman_rollback plans from the bus: each package now -> record from the node's cache, else the archive's
exact version, else the archive's repository on the record's date; added packages listed and removed only
when asked; foreign packages untouched. apply is an ask the node's keeper runs as a rollback run through the
root helper's new Rollback act (RootActs, upgrades.go), with rollback.started, rollback.finished and the
after-upgrade check (TakeAsk's rollback case, transaction.go).
pacman_packages answers one package on every node, or each node's counts, its explicit packages no module
declares and its foreign ones apart, the versions that differ and the packages on some nodes only, with a
node over the bus's cap marked not current. pacman_updates, pacman_installed and pacman_foreign read the
keeper's states instead of the machine; pacman_updates says when each node's list last changed.
The keeper process runs under its own account with a bus account of its own,
keeps the six states and emits the nine events of ADR 0507 and ADR 0508; its
config (upgrade-order, record-days, round-start-minutes) lands in its config
file and restarts it. shapes.go fixes every key's value and event body as the
interface the keeper and the verbs share. The weekly timer and its service are
dropped, which the node-engine removes.
Mirrors were generated once and never again and caches never cleaned. The
module holds node-package-manager (hq ADR 0207), declares pacman itself, owns
/etc/pacman.conf whole — [options] cannot take an appended block — with the
union of the enabled repositories and improved options, proven by pacman-conf
in its test, and enables reflector.timer (its config owned) and
paccache.timer. Fifteen tools from a Go bundle; transactions run as transient
units so a call's timeout never kills pacman mid-transaction (to-be 42).
