update to hrev script. - bbjimmy - 06-24-2015

There are times that one needs to update your install to a previous version. this little script can help:

Code:
#!/bin/bash

read -e -p "Add repositories for: hrev" hrev

pkgman add http://packages.haiku-os.org/haiku/master/$(getarch)/r1~alpha4_pm_hrev$hrev

if [ "$?" -ne "0" ]; then

    echo "Failure detected, exiting."

    exit 1

fi

pkgman add http://packages.haiku-os.org/haikuports/master/repo/$(getarch)/by_hrev/hrev$hrev

if [ "$?" -ne "0" ]; then

    echo "Failure detected, exiting."

    exit 1

fi

while true; do

    read -p "Do you want to update now? [yes/no] " yn

    case $yn in

        [Yy]* ) pkgman update; break;;

        [Nn]* ) exit;;

        * ) echo "Please answer y or n.";;

    esac

done

It works well up to the last bit

Code:
/boot/home/config/non-packaged/bin/update2hrev: line 19: syntax error near unexpected token `)'

/boot/home/config/non-packaged/bin/update2hrev: line 19: `        [Yy]* ) pkgman update; break;;'

[/code]

Sometimes that happens when copy/pasting code from a website. The web seems to add unprintable characters that bash can't understand. try re-typing the last few lines ans see if that doesn't fix the issue.
