hiya folks,
whilst preparing an early 2.7.4 sample i tried the parabola image that i have here, which worked well back in june-august 2016 and i have not updated since. alongside XFCE4 i deployed eudev and openrc and it works extremely effectively (and provides a faster boot time).
when endeavouring to do an update there were two key conflicts, related to udev, systemd and mesa-gl attempting to be upgraded. the upgrade could therefore not proceed.
now, i *might* have a micro-sd card which has the full XFCE4 pre-tested image on it: around that time i remember losing a couple of pre-prepared images due to sdcard corruption thanks to NAND IC interference. if i can find it that is what will have to go out... but it will *not be upgradeable*.
could someone (on parabola) please check this out and see what's going on? http://systemd-free.org/install.php
many many thanks,
l.
