Doesn't work on Manjaro

[grodin]

Not sure if Manjaro is supposed to be supported (if not, fair enough!), but currently running reboot-arch-btw gives the error

[2024-02-07T10:36:16Z ERROR reboot_arch_btw] Could not create kernel checker: Could not get version of installed kernel: could not find or read package

The output of uname -srv is

Linux 6.1.71-1-MANJARO #1 SMP PREEMPT_DYNAMIC Fri Jan  5 17:36:36 UTC 2024

Might be worth mentioning in the README if you decide not to support Manjaro.

Could you post the output of uname -r because that is the command used to detect the running kernel?

Also, the error reported a missmatch with alpm the pacman API, could you confirm that you have pacman installed?

I think we can easily support manjaro as well. Can you post the output when you run it with RUST_LOG=info reboot-arch-btw?

[rnestler]

Especially interesting would be how we can map from the uname -r output to the package name on manjaro. Looking at https://packages.manjaro.org/?query=linux it has a lot of different packages for each major/minor Linux version.

Here's the output of uname -r:

6.1.71-1-MANJARO

and the output of RUST_LOG=info reboot-arch-btw:

@grodin And do you happen to know what the actual installed kernel package name is on your system? Probably linux61?

Exactly right

[rnestler]

So I guess we could infer the package name from the major and minor version of the uname output.

[rnestler]

Can you try the fix in #165?

[grodin]

It seems to work. I checked out #165 and did a debug build. The output of target/debug/reboot-arch-btw is

Kernel
 installed: 6.1.71.1 (since 24 days ago)
 running:   6.1.71.1-MANJARO

Is that what you'd expect?

[rnestler]

This seems reasonable. One could argue that it is a bit confusing that the installed version doesn't include -MANJARO, but I guess we can live with that.

If you run into any other issues with Manjaro, just open another ticket.
