Arch Linux User Repository

I switched from the regular service file to the hardened one, which enables a lot of security features systemd offers.

It will break the mounting feature, but this is already unavailable because the user ipfs is not part of the fuse group (by default).

To avoid crashes if ipfs mount is called, the package is build without this support now.

I've added an install-file which will move the data while updating from /var/lib/ipfs/.ipfs to the more logical /var/lib/ipfs path. The daemon is stopped automatically if necessary. Make sure to start it again.

@rpodgorny I like to stick as close to the upstream as possible.

If you like this package to provide a systemd-user file, feel free to open a PR on the upstream git - I'll include it, as soon as it's merged.

it would be nice if this package also provided a systemd-user service file. it would make back and forth migration between go-ipfs and go-ipfs-git much easier (i sometimes need to check something in the git version but most of the time i run the non-git package).

can be taken from here:

Needs manual intervention:

You need to update go-ipfs-git before you run your system-update to make the installed version compatible with the official repository again.

Needs manual intervention:

Switched service/socket files for systemd to the upstream ones.

If your dependent on the files earlier, you need to check the settings and modify the new files with override.confs accordingly.

Make sure there is no ipfs user/group existing before updating.

I've added a local go-build cache (which doesn't get cleared like before).

There should be no difference in build time, but it allows yay to clean up the build cache for this package and also allows to make clean builds with yay (including a clean build cache).

If you have build IPFS with this package before 0.5.0rc4.r7.g0c57175f0-2 you have already a build cache for IPFS.

You can clean the part ipfs uses - and regain disk space - by running go clean -modcache -r "github.com/ipfs/go-ipfs/cmd/ipfs"

Make sure to upgrade this package with something like

yay -Syu go go-ipfs-git

This will replace go-pie with go BEFORE you build this package, instead of afterward. This version doesn't require go-pie anymore.

@mohe thanks, overlooked that (got go-pie on my ignore list).

I've already pushed a new version yesterday :)

Thanks for fixing! Btw, go-pie 1.14.2 just got released!

@mohe I've fixed the PKGBUILD, thanks for the report.

As explained before, the default git to pkgver() from the wiki, which @redfish quoted doesn't work here.
