[SOLVED]Failed to install packages to new root
Hi
I am reinstalling Arch. The image that I use from usb is coulple month old. I am trying to ceep my old /home partition, so I just mounted the old /home partition to the new file system. The root partition is new, after mkfs.ext4.
After choosing a mirror and running
pacstrap /mnt base base-devel
all the packages ware downloaded and it continued to the installation. Then the output was
:: Proceed with installation? [Y/n]
(133/133) checking keys in keyring
downloading required keys...
:: Import PGP key 4096R/, "Anatol Pomozov <anatol.pomozov@gmail.com>", created: 2014-02-04? [Y/n]
error: key "Anatol Pomozov <anatol.pomozov@gmail.com>" could not be imported
error: failed to commit transaction (unexpected error)
Errors occurred, no packages were upgraded.
==> ERROR: Failed to install packages to new root
I run the
pacman-key --init && pacman-key -populate archlinux
but it didnt help. I check the time, and it seems to be O.K.
thanks for reading.

Hello, and thanks for this great Arch installer. Usually works 100% perfectly. Unfortunately an issue at the moment.
Anarchy version: latest
Installation method (VM/Host): full install to hard drive (+ mate mate-extras)
System specifications (Processor, GPU, RAM …): Haswell i7, Radeon R9 255, 16 ram
What actually happened
After updating Anarchy within the installer, and making all choices, including LTS base-devel kernel, nearly everything installs, but it throws an error at the end … «failed to install packages to new root.» Have tried twice, and same result.
I think you’re right, particularly about the pacman.conf. Thanks for linking to #923, and, yes, it’s impossible to install … I wouldn’t know where to begin with manually messing with the iso/install, even though I’m able to do a proper Arch install (with really good extra notes, lol).
@btd1337 The malforming of pacman.conf most likely happens when enabling multilib, where we use a regex. The relevant are configure_base, configure_desktop, configure_quick and configure_system.
I don’t know regex and don’t have the time to learn it, so if you want, you can check out the files and see which one might be causing the problems.
Fortunately at this point the Zen installer runs without the issue I opened this thread about, but may I ask if the overall aim has changed to that people maintain the installer themselves? (that’s not possible for me/health reasons).
but may I ask if the overall aim has changed to that people maintain the installer themselves?
No, that was not the aim, but two of us main developers go to university and the third one has a full time job, so we can’t spend that much time on Anarchy.
If I have some free time soon, I’ll look into the issue but it is not a priority for me, so any outside help is welcome.
Thanks for responding. If it’s not a priority that the installer works, there’s other things.
For me it fails on yay. I don’t recall an option to not use yay.
For me it fails on yay. I don’t recall an option to not use yay.
It depends on which packages you install. Some packages (e.g. icons) are only available from the AUR, so yay gets installed automatically.
If you get an error between pacman and yay, re-download the latest iso and try again, it was already fixed a some time ago and reuploaded.
@condor2 I used the «stable» version 1.0.8, I believe everyone does the same.
In it the error is present. A new version with patches that do not require user intervention should be released.

Have you updated Anarchy (anarchy -u
), like he said to? He is referring to a commit, which gets applied by updating. This is so we don’t have to release a new iso for every commit.
I’d used the updated iso, and updated within install, twice, and still it failed. The Zen installer doesn’t force use of yay, and succeeds at install. All this needs is the option to choose whether to install yay or not, or to choose a different helper. It was either a recent pacman and/or pamac update needed yay removed, in order to update system correctly. The point of whatever reason people need to use an arch install helper is to not need to correct structural issues such as this. This was working great, before the pacman/pamac updates and yay issues. If it could be fixed, that would be awesome.
The thing is, a new 1.0.8 iso was released that fixed the problem, which leads me to believe that you have an older version of 1.0.8. Try re-downloading 1.0.8 and try again, if it doesn’t work, I’ll look into it when I have the time.
Tested now with customized xfce, kernel LTS and there is no issue with yay.
You mean zen kernel?
LE, Tested with Zen kernel, no issue. Better post a screenshot, logs..
The thing is, a new 1.0.8 iso was released that fixed the problem, which leads me to believe that you have an older version of 1.0.8. Try re-downloading 1.0.8 and try again, if it doesn’t work, I’ll look into it when I have the time.
Thanks for responding. I’m pretty sure it was the latest, as I downloaded it freshly a day before beginning this thread, around Nov 7th, but I’ll try it again when I have time and post back.
@erazemkokot By default, a release should be working minimally without any errors or requiring user action, as they often do not master these details.
So a commit that makes the installer «work» should not be treated as any commit.
@btd1337 As you already know, Arch isn’t a distro that holds your hand when installing it. So we too expect our users to be at least aware that they have to update the installer, because we can’t afford (time-wise) to publish a new release for every commit. And I don’t agree with your statement when talking about Anarchy or Arch though, Since Arch is a rolling distro we can’t know what changes will be implemented and problems, like the recent yay
vs pacman
thing can’t be predicted. So the only thing we can do is update a release (which we did with 1.0.8). Like you can see above, Condor tested the new release and the issue was not reproducible, so there isn’t much we can do. But do know that I understand your frustration and we do try to release our images as bug-free as possible.
If you have the time, you can check the files I listed above and try to update the regex to see if that fixes the problem on your end and then submit a pull request with the fix.
I’d like to report that I am also having this issue. I downloaded the latest iso from releases and just to be sure I also ran anarchy -u before starting the installer.
I personally selected arch-base kernel with clean KDE, multilib, os-prober and no additional software. it throws a «failed to commit transaction (unexpected error)»
I tried editing the anarchy.conf and removed yay but it didn’t fix it, I checked the log and no error was shown, it was just downloading and threw the same error.
Closing since the issue appears to be fixed in 1.0.9.

Failed to install packages to new root while installing arch
Info https://imgur.com/gallery/8ZOcw. This is my first time installing arch Linux on my pc. When I enter pacstrap /mnt base-devel everything appears to go fine until the end when it says «Failed to install packages to new root». I have tried some solutions but non of them worked. They all needed to refresh my keys, but it don’t look like they are the issue. What should I do?
#2 2018-01-04 16:45:43
Re: Failed to install packages to new root while installing arch
It looks like you are trying to install Arch to a non-empty partition. Is this the case?
The installation guide clearly states that the partitions need to be formatted before use.
No, it didn’t «fix» anything. It just shifted the brokeness one space to the right. — jasonwryan

#3 2018-01-04 17:00:29
Re: Failed to install packages to new root while installing arch
Nope, I completely forgot to do that . I wanted to install it over my current Fedora installation so I skipped the partitioning section because all my partitions were already set up, which wasn’t smart in hindsight. I presume erasing everything in the partitions will fix the issue? it’s 3 am currently so i’m a bit tired so I blame that

Re: Failed to install packages to new root while installing arch
No need to repartition, but you do need to format (or empty them by deleting everything).

Re: ERROR:Failed to install packages to new root
Is that your compressed linux images (vmlinuz) are still on your /boot partition? It looks like you use a shared /boot partition for you windows and Arch. Under UEFI this is a fine, and probably the best setup. However, for you, this means you need to go in an manually delete your vmlinuz files.
Mount your /boot partition then run:
then, re pacstrap your system.
See if this works.

I agree. If you’ve installed another distro prior to Arch, and you want overwrite its data footprint; make sure you remove the kernels files from that distros boot directory prior to installation.

pacstrap «failed to install packages to new root»
Hello, I am having an issue where pacstrap is unable to open file parts after downloading them. What happens to me is nearly identical to the second block of code from the OP in this post: https://bbs.archlinux.org/viewtopic.php?id=238934
The referenced post seemed to solve the issue by formatting their partition as ext2 rather than FAT 32, however I am trying to install on a UEFI system and I was under the impression that FAT 32 was required for your EFI partition, so I am in a bit of a catch 22. I also tried updating my keyring with:
If the issue is as the referenced post hypothesized, and that something about the packages doesn’t cooperate with FAT 32, are there other file systems I could try ? If not, I am unsure of how to proceed.
Any help would be greatly appreciated. Thanks !

Failed to Install Packages to new Root
I’m trying to install Arch
Whenever I go through with installing the base packages (pacstrap -i /mnt base base-devel), I keep getting this:
error: libpsl: signature from «Levente Polyak (anthraxx) » is unknown trust
: : File /mnt/var/cache/pacman/pkg/libpsl-0.17.0.1-x86_64.pkg.tar.xz is corrupted (invalid or corrupted package (PGP signature))).

Do you want to delete it? [Y/n] (I’ve tried both yes and no)

Errors occurred, no packages were upgraded.
==> ERROR: Failed to install packages to new root
Also, it should probably be noted that I’m doing this off of a Live USB running a version of Arch from last year (2016_03)
I’ve tried using a newer ISO, thinking that the packages were outdated, but I wasn’t able to boot from it (archlinux-2017.04.01-x86_64)
(I’m using YUMI to create Live USB’s)
What should I do?
#2 2017-04-08 14:10:01
Re: Failed to Install Packages to new Root
You should really use an up-to-date installation iso, but if that isn’t possible, you might be able to get by by updating the archlinux-keyring package in the live environment before running pacstrap.
‘ in this case is a special time thing, you should not use it in an installed system as it will lead to partial updates which are not supported.

Thank you so much! It worked like a charm!
However, I wonder why the newest ISO wouldn’t work on the device;
As in, it would always output something like:

Re: Failed to Install Packages to new Root
No, the «corrupt packages» were just due to using an old iso with an outdated keyring — they aren’t stored on the usb anyways, so a usb hardware issue would not lead to those symptoms. The second error is quite common, and usually a result of using something other than dd to create the live usb.

Hey everyone, here is my situation:
Edit: I’m currently running off of a Live-CD of Arch Linux.
I checked my partition table using:
parted /dev/sda print
And my two partitions being used (root, home) are both ext4.
I’ve ensured I am connected to the internet, using:
ping -c 5 google.ca
And I’ve received all packets back.
I then tried using:
pacstrap -i /mnt base base-devel
And the command results were (forgive my formatting):
==> Creating install root at /mnt
==> Installing packages to /mnt
:: Synchronizing package databased...
core is up to date
extra is up to date
community is up to date
:: There are 50 members in group base:
And it goes on to list the packages. I hit ENTER to default all in both base and base-devel.
It checks the keyring, checks integrity, and finally loads package files.
The download zips right through in less than a second, claiming all files exists in filesystem.
The final output is:
Errors occured, no packages were upgraded.
==> ERROR: Failed to install packages to new root.
I know this is an incredibly noob question but does this mean all required files are already installed? I don’t want to proceed if I’m missing any packages. And if I were to be missing any packages, would I be able to continue with the OS installation and use pacman to install packages later on?
Sorry for the waste of space. I want to make sure I’m doing it right!

I have done a few successful ArcoLinuxD installs in the past, but wanted to give ArcoLinuxB a try this time. My goal is to build an iso with xfce and openbox (no i3). I have edited the packages.both file (adding what I want, and commenting out what I do not). When I try to run script 30 to build the iso, I keep getting this…ERROR: Failed to install packages to new root. Any idea what I’m doing wrong?
Thanks!

That is exactly what we need.
1. your work directory must be deleted.
sudo rm -rf ..
2. failed retrieving file
do a «mirror» and «sudo pacman -Syyu» in terminal
3. do not put applications from AUR in packages.both
error: target not found: curseradio-git
error: target not found: discord
error: target not found: slack-desktop
error: target not found: spotify
error: target not found: workflowy
error: target not found: xcursor-neutral++
error: target not found: anydesk
error: target not found: openvpn-nordvpn
error: target not found: backintime
error: target not found: bitwarden
error: target not found: megasync
Use a script to get those in later after installation.
Good luck.
Learn, have fun and enjoy.

That is exactly what we need.1. your work directory must be deleted.

Good luck.
Thank you for this—I think I’m almost there, but am now getting this error:
error: arcolinux-applications-git: signature from «Erik Dubois <erik.dubois@gmail.com>» is invalid
:: File /var/cache/pacman/pkg/arcolinux-applications-git-6.8-8-any.pkg.tar.xz is corrupted (invalid or corrupted package (PGP signature)).
Do you want to delete it? [Y/n]

Sorry…I should have searched for that first, but thank you. I now have a successful new iso to play with this weekend!! (how do I mark this as SOLVED?)

…just did a quick test of the iso in virtualbox and I’m only getting an openbox option at log in (no xfce), so I’ll need to see what I missed there.
UPDATE—built a new iso with arcolinux as the base (rather than openbox)—commenting out the i3 stuff and adding the packages I wanted. Now have the custom iso I wanted with xfce and openbox!
