Topic: vlock does not work

vlock is missing binary executables.

this is the output of pacman -Ql

vlock /usr/
vlock /usr/bin/
vlock /usr/bin/vlock
vlock /usr/share/
vlock /usr/share/licenses/
vlock /usr/share/licenses/vlock/
vlock /usr/share/licenses/vlock/COPYING
vlock /usr/share/man/
vlock /usr/share/man/man1/
vlock /usr/share/man/man1/vlock.1.gz

and this the error reported trying to run it:

/usr/bin/vlock: row 231: /usr/sbin/vlock-main: No such file or directory

Re: vlock does not work

Hello and welcome to the forums: This was already notified and fixed.

Here you can use another PKGBUILD first for local building, it will later be also available within our package-repos: https://git.hyperbola.info:50100/~team/ … 7f81f0f63b

Re: vlock does not work

warning: directory permissions differ on /usr/sbin/

This is not an error to be worried about. It is just a permission-issue being corrected after installation. We are working on that being solved with HyperbolaBSD. I know that this is weird at a point, but you won't have any problems then.

Re: vlock does not work

ok... thanks for the welcome smile

just another question...
i would have reported this issue on the issue tracker, but at moment it is not accessible, with ngnix responding with a 404 error.
Is this another known problem?
thanks again

Re: vlock does not work

Yes, that was and is a problem. For the moment we are most focussed on the system. But this is as I have said not really an issue and we know about that. I can create later also an issue for you noting that.

Closing thread therefore!
