------------------------+------------------------------
Building a new minimum image (i.e. jam -q j2 @minimum-raw) for x86_64 from
the latest code in git (hrev53369), booting into it via QEMU and trying to
refresh the package repository with "pkgman repository" at the terminal
fails with
{{{
Fetching repository checksum from https://eu.hpkg.haiku-os.org/haiku-
master/x86_64/current...
*** failed! General system error
}}}
This is the case even after applying the workaround described in ticket
#15230, i.e.
{{{
mkdir ~/config/cache/package-repositories
cp /system/cache/package-repositories/* ~/config/cache/package-
repositories
}}}
Installing packages fails in a similar way: pkgman tries to refresh each
repository, which fails with "General system error", then offers to
install the package anyway but after entering "yes" at the prompt this
fails with (e.g.)
{{{
*** Failed to download package jam: General system error
}}}
Basically, package repositories seem completely unusable in fresh builds.
