## 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. Starting with release
|
|
2.2, the tarballs are signed with my key with fingerprint
|
|
`F7B28C61944FE30DABEEB0B01070BCC98C18BD66`.
|
|
|
|
For previous releases, the key's fingerprint was
|
|
`8535CEF3F3C38EE69555BF67E4B5E45AA3B8C5C3`.
|
|
|
|
## Configuration
|
|
|
|
Most likely, configuration is not needed. By default, the snapper configuration named
|
|
`root` will have pre/post snapshots taken for every pacman transaction.
|
|
|
|
To configure, copy the example configuration file:
|
|
|
|
```bash
|
|
cp /etc/snap-pac.ini{.example,}
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
Then edit with your favorite editor. The file is commented and should be
|
|
self-explanatory.
