Expected behaviour you didn't see
Given this 50-root.transfer file, running systemd-sysupdate should update the image to the newer version:
[Source]
Type=regular-file
MatchPattern[email protected]%a.raw
Path=/
PathRelativeTo=explicit
[Target]
MatchPartitionType=root
MatchPattern=fooOS-root_@v
Path=auto
Type=partition
[Transfer]
ProtectVersion=1
Unexpected behaviour you saw
The command fails with:
$ systemd-sysupdate update --definitions /etc/sysupdate.d --transfer-source . --image fooOS.raw
/run/systemd/mount-rootfs/etc/sysupdate.d/50-root.transfer:1: Source Type= must be one of url-file, url-tar, tar, regular-file, directory, subvolume.
Steps to reproduce the problem
I've created a bare-minimum example repository at https://github.com/m-kuzmin/sysupdate.example. It includes a Justfile to automate the commands. Using just flash update 2 on version 259.3, works as expected:
✨ Successfully installed update '2'.
After updating to the next available version of sysupdate on Cachix, the update fails with the following error:
nix develop . --override-input nixpkgs nixpkgs/01fbdeef22b76df85ea168fbfe1bfd9e63681b30 --command just flash update 2
...
systemd-sysupdate update --definitions /etc/sysupdate.d --transfer-source . --image fooOS.raw
/run/systemd/mount-rootfs/etc/sysupdate.d/50-root.transfer:1: Source Type= must be one of url-file, url-tar, tar, regular-file, directory, subvolume.
error: Recipe `update` failed on line 33 with exit code 1
The same issue occurs with version 260.2.
