# snap-pac
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
## Synopsis
|
|
|
|
This is a set of pacman hooks and script that automatically causes snapper to
|
|
perform a pre and post snapshot before and after pacman transactions, similar to
|
|
how YaST does with OpenSuse. This provides a simple way to undo changes to a
|
|
system after a pacman transaction.
|
|
|
|
## Installation
|
|
|
|
Install the `snap-pac` package using pacman.
|
|
|
|
Alternatively [download the latest release] and signature , verify the download, and
|
|
then run `make install`.
|
|
|
|
I have signed the release tarball and commits with my PGP key. The key's
|
|
fingerprint is `8535CEF3F3C38EE69555BF67E4B5E45AA3B8C5C3`.
|
|
|
|
Starting with release 2.2, the tarballs are signed with my key with fingerprint `F7B2
|
|
8C61 944F E30D ABEE B0B0 1070 BCC9 8C18 BD66`.
|
|
|
|
## Configuration
|
|
|
|
An commented example configuration file is located at `extras/snap-pac.ini` which is
|
|
installed to `/etc/snap-pac.ini.example`. By default only the snapper configuration
|
|
named `root` has snapshots taken before and after pacman transactions. See the example
|
|
configuration file for how to add other snapper configurations.
|
|
|
|
## Documentation
|
|
|
|
Run `man 8 snap-pac` after installation.
|
|
|
|
## Troubleshooting
|
|
|
|
After reviewing the man page, [check the issues page] and file a new issue if your
|
|
problem is not covered.
