`pkgx install python@3.11` - missing destination operand

[abitrolly]

# curl https://pkgx.sh | sh
# pkgx install python@3.11
install: missing destination file operand after 'python@3.11'
Try '/root/.pkgx/gnu.org/coreutils/v9.6.0/bin/install --help' for more information.

Installed pkgx with curl into a fresh Fedora container.

# pkgx --version
pkgx 2.1.2

Try '/root/.pkgx/gnu.org/coreutils/v9.6.0/bin/install --help' for more information.

it's running GNU install. you want pkgm install python@3.11.

@jhheider

# pkgm install python@3.11
Error: "cmd not found: deno"

[jhheider]

that seems like a pkgm bug. I'll move this over.

[abitrolly]

@jhheider it actually breaks after Ctrl-C.

[root@36fff2f4eb4c workdir]# pkgm install python@3.11

Trying to "fix" is by running with pkgx leads to more bugs.

# pkgx pkgm
Error: SqlInputError { error: Error { code: Unknown, extended_code: 1 }, msg: "table aliases already exists", sql: "\n    CREATE TABLE aliases (\n        project TEXT,\n        alias TEXT\n    );\n    CREATE INDEX idx_project ON provides(project);\n    CREATE INDEX idx_program ON provides(program);\n    CREATE INDEX idx_project_dependencies ON dependencies(project);\n    CREATE INDEX idx_project_companions ON companions(project);\n    CREATE INDEX idx_alias_project ON aliases(alias);\n    ", offset: 18 }

Not my day today.

[jhheider]

that's the second db error with the new version. looks like a fix is coming: #1095

[abitrolly]

Updated pkgx to 2.1.3, still no luck.

# pkgm install vale
Error: "cmd not found: deno"
# pkgx pkgm install vale
Error: CmdNotFound("pkgm")

[jhheider]

It's possible you're in a bad state. I'd try:

pkgx --sync
pkgx +deno@latest

@jhheider

# pkgx --sync
thread 'main' panicked at crates/cli/src/args.rs:76:22:

[jhheider]

Fun. Perhaps that wasn't ported forward. Well, you can obviously find and remove pantry.2.db. hopefully just the + command will do it, though.

[abitrolly]

Well, you can obviously find and remove pantry.2.db.

Not so obvious.

# fd pantry.2.db /
#

[jhheider]

Odd. 2.1.2 and above should be creating pantry.2.db. it should be next to pantry.db (in your cache dir for your system).

Does pkgx +deno@latest work?

@jhheider

# pkgx +deno@latest
