Duet Pi Regression - How?
-
If a person chooses to regress DSF on a Pi, what is the most automated way? So far, I've come up with this:
First - backup your files in /opt/dsf/sd/*, just in case.
Then run:
sudo apt remove duetsoftwareframework -y
sudo apt autopurge -y
sudo apt install duetsoftwareframework=1.2.3.0 -yRestore any files that went missing or overlay.
AND, of course, if the board won't talk, bossa with the firmware found at /opt/dsf/sd/sys/Duet3Firmware_MB6HC.bin". If it will talk, the 'apt' process should have loaded at least the main board when it installed the 'duetfirmware' package.
Thoughts?

Specifying a specific version for only DSF never has worked as apt seems to insist on installing the most recent version for all of DSF's dependencies which aren't compatible. Maybe aptitude can do a better job of it?
also i think you need to removethat was a half finished thought. but seems autopurge might be excessive as it could remove configs from non duet packages; if purge is a goal i'd make sure to backup sd folder and specifyduetruntime
orapt purge duetcontrolserver duetruntime duetsd duetsoftwareframework duettools duetwebcontrol duetwebserver reprapfirmware

To the autopurge point, yah, I'd like to avoid that for exactly those two reasons: removes 'non package' files and could remove anything that apt thinks it should, outside the duet universe.
At the same time, I thought it would create a state where apt install with version number didn't do the "broken" thing. Obviously, it does not.
So... part of the reason for asking this question was to see if regression is worth scripting. Something that spits out all the commands, much like depcheck. Probably is...
-
Why is that 95%? Or what is the 5% edge case?

afaik the only flaw is the recursive checking i limited to duetframework because it was the only package without a direct dependency to dsf (i.e. if that changes it fails, but then apt will complain so safe-ish)

and purging duetsd will clear out the most of /opt/dsf/sd folder
configs, macros, gcode, everything. -

oh, and there is something weird with the reprapfirmeware n.n.n.n-1 and n.n.n.n-999 dependenices for otherwise identical versions. so i ignore the 999 in the rexeg

Agreed. I'm now on the warpath to avoid 'apt purge'.
'apt remove' only removes things in the package manifest, and deletes empty directories. If non empty, it will leave them. I believe the one time I regressed (by a manual method) that everything stayed intact, EXCEPT config.g had been overlaid with the empty-ish distribution copy. All other files, like tfree and tpost and so forth, and macros, they were all intact.

Me too.

With regard to "how to recurse" without depending on the exact structure of the package, this seems to work, then parse the "depends" line:
apt show duetsoftwareframework=1.2.3.0 Package: duetsoftwareframework Version: 1.2.3.0 Priority: standard Section: electronics Maintainer: Duet3D Packaging Authority <pkg@duet3d.com> Installed-Size: unknown Depends: duetcontrolserver (= 1.2.3.0), duetsd (= 1.0.5), duettools (= 1.2.3.0), duetwebserver (= 1.2.1.0), duetwebcontrol (= 2.0.4-1), reprapfirmware (>= 1.2.3.0-1), reprapfirmware (<= 1.2.3.0-999) Homepage: https://pkg.duet3d.com Vcs-Git: https://github.com/chrishamm/DuetSoftwareFramework.git Download-Size: 1,710 B APT-Manual-Installed: yes APT-Sources: https://pkg.duet3d.com unstable/armv7 armhf Packages Description: Meta package for the full Duet software framework

this seems to work,
missing duetruntime which is why i turne to recusion that ultimately failed if left run to to all the leaf nodes.

Hmmm... I wonder how it gets installed? With no dependency?

@Danal said in Duet Pi Regression - How?:

duetcontrolserver has it as a dependency iirc (thus the recursion)
-
Ah, light bulb just came on. Thank you.

And, by the way, autopurge (which I am NOT going to use) actually does not purge the recursive stuff after a
sudo apt install duetsoftwareframework=1.2.3.0 duetcontrolserver=1.2.3.0 duetruntime=1.2.3.0 duetsd=1.0.5 duettools=1.2.3.0 duetwebserver=1.2.1.0 duetwebcontrol=2.0.4-1 reprapfirmware=1.2.3.0-1
style install, and an apt remove duetsoftwareframework.
So.... it would not have worked anyway.

Just switch to RPM

was wondering if aptitude* would be better suited, but decided to brush up on regex instead
*) not better than RPM..

How about
//STEP1 EXEC PGM=SMPE
? It handled prereqs, coreqs, and even postreqs flawlessly. Why, I've heard you could build and entire OS with it! -
@Danal said in Duet Pi Regression - How?:
and an apt remove duetsoftwareframework.
apt remove duet* reprapfirmware
is about the same length and oddly more specific. would work with remove and purge for that matter.
