This error occurs if the main package manager on the device is pacman and apt is installed. In the last step of configuring mirrors, it uses the pkg command which in turn uses pacman due to the TERMUX_MAIN_PACKAGE_FORMAT system value.

Hello,
I am saswata, want to add a mirror in India.

MAIN="https://mirrors.saswata.xyz/termux/termux-main"
ROOT="https://mirrors.saswata.xyz/termux/termux-root"
X11="https://mirrors.saswata.xyz/termux/termux-x11"

Let me know if you need any other information.

I have created a mirror of the termux repository:

https://termux.danyael.xyz/termux

It is syncing each 6 hours from the main repository packages.termux.dev based on the instructions from
https://github.com/termux/termux-packages/wiki/How-to-mirror-the-official-repositories#mirroring-with-rsync

Please consider add it to the mirror list.

Hi!

Our mirror was previously registered as ftp.acc.umu.se, but while the
old host name still works it looks like it's been removed from your
list of mirrors (which is interesting, since our mirror was one of the first IIRC).

Anyhow, I've updated our setup to mirror from packages.termux.dev instead of grimler.se according to the instructions on https://github.com/termux/termux-packages/wiki/How-to-mirror-the-official-repositories

I followed the command given to switch to the dynamic motd.sh

ln -sf $PREFIX/etc/motd.sh ~/.termux/motd.sh

but am still seeing the static motd. Not sure if I missed a step somewhere... I do see the link for motd.sh in $HOME/.termux/

dpkg -S getprop

stdout:

termux-tools: /data/data/com.termux/files/usr/bin/getprop

Why can't I find that wrapper script in this repo?

Problem description

Hi,

I'm creating this issue to donate a new mirror in Lisbon Portugal.
The mirror is available via RSYNC, HTTP and HTTPS @ mirror.leitecastro.com/termux.
The node is connected at 20Gbps and is IPv4 and IPv6 enabled.
It is currently syncing hourly from rsync://packages.termux.dev/termux
Let me know if you want to reduce the frequency of the sync.

Regards,

Tomás

Hi, I have made a mirror for termux in Poland, Kalisz and would like it to be added to the official mirror list.
Mirror by: @cfxproxy

The server has a bandwidth of 1Gbps. It is updated every day

As the administrator of this mirror, I guarantee continuous uptime and plenty of bandwidth. I'm fully committed to supporting the Termux community's needs effectively.

• Hostname: mirror.polido.pt/termux
• Location: Porto, Portugal
• Connectivity: 1 Gbps
• Supported protocols: HTTP, HTTPS, rsync
• Update period: Syncs occur nightly according to the Europe/Lisbon timezone. (This schedule can be adjusted upon request.)
• IP version: IPv4 only, for now.

I suggest creating a termux-set-repo command which allows you to disable or enable repos for apt or for pacman. How to implement it correctly, I can’t figure out how to do it in my head, so I’m waiting for your implementation proposal (if you’re interested, of course).

When running a simple .dex hello world it takes about 3.8 seconds.

The default of -Xnoimage-dex2oat on pre Android 12 has changed to -Ximage-dex2oat.

So a lot of time is taken to precompile dex files and all jar dependencies to a binary ELF as though it is a full APK :-( only to be deleted since it is not required to be persisted via other dalvikvm option. This is all done prior to calling main.

This script needs to be updated to specify -Xnoimage-dex2oat as a default

I'm trying to compile the file 'Main.cxx' to an exe code 'Main' with the tool g++ and link it with shared lib 'mylib.so'.
The problem is that the process returns an error says 'unable to find lib'.
I have make sure that the lib is at the same folder with the Main.cxx file, and still returns the same error.

Sometimes mirror.termux.dev returns bad redirection in the form of http.

Hello, I would like to -

1. Add India mirror (hourly sync) -

Source syntax:

deb https://mirrors.in.sahilister.net/termux/termux-root/ root stable
deb https://mirrors.in.sahilister.net/termux/termux-x11/ x11 main

2. Change URL for my Germany mirror from https://mirrors.sahilister.in/termux/ to https://mirrors.de.sahilister.net/termux/

Source syntax:

deb https://mirrors.de.sahilister.net/termux/termux-main/ stable main
deb https://mirrors.de.sahilister.net/termux/termux-root/ root stable
deb https://mirrors.de.sahilister.net/termux/termux-x11/ x11 main

PS - IN mirror GeoIP still shows Oslo, Norway as hosting provider recently opened India location. The mirror is located in Mumbai, India. Can be confirmed by running a traceroute/mtr.

PPS - Created #98 for the change.

I am talking about those commands that were configured with the work of pacman (for example, pkg and termux-info). This is due to an incorrectly specified value for TERMUX_MAIN_PACKAGE_FORMAT, which is listed as debian in the pacman package.

Hi! I am running a mirror for termux in Toronto, Ontario, Canada, and I would like it to be added to the official mirror list:

Mirrors by @quantum5

Hosted in Toronto, Ontario, Canada and updated four times a day.

This mirror should be able to handle 1 Gbps. Let me know if there's anything else you need!

In #1 (comment) @agnostic-apollo suggested some additional improvements. Lets track it in this issue so it is not forgotten:

Another thing I want implemented is a blacklisted mirrors list file that is hosted on fosshost and as fallback on github as well in case its inaccessible, and file possibly signed with our key. This should contain all the mirrors that must not be used or whose domains have been freed or url sub path changed, like bintray, packages.termux.org, kcubeterm.me, recent one, etc. This file should likely automatically be downloaded on termux app start and incrementally as well to $PREFIX/etc/apt/blacklisted-mirrors.list file. The mirrors in these files should be checked by termux-change-repo and excluded from showing and pkg should exclude it too from mirrors group and switch to default mirror if none remain or single mirror is blacklisted.

An additional default mirror site file should also be hosted, that is used by the app to replace any blacklisted mirror from existing apt sources list files so that if user uses apt instead of pkg, then blacklisted mirrors don't get used. The default mirror should also be used by pkg script as default.

With the above, the blacklisted mirrors will be independent of whether users updates termux-tools or the app or has old bootstrap and we hopefully won't get any (or lower) broken mirror issues anymore. Hopefully, fosshost and github will be accessible in all countries. There is of course an ethical issue of pinging either fossthost or github continuously that could be used to track termux users, so users should explicitly opt in with a prompt. The user should also be able to disable this in termux app settings.

We could also download the files in pkg script instead so that app doesn't need to and it doesn't ping in background and only when users wants to update, but then users that may be running apt directly would still remain affected, unless we change relevant apt binaries to a wrapper scripts or patch them to run a script at start, depending on command install/update/upgrade/search.

We are the mirror maintainers from Zhejiang University, officially supported by the Information Technology Center in our school. We hope to be added to the mirror list of Termux.
Here are some basic information about us:

Mirrors by Zhejiang University

Looking forward to seeing our mirror on the official list!

mirror.albony.xyz now uses the domain mirror.albony.in

Please change the mirrorlist accordingly

Thanks

So I modified dalvikvm script to add

And the performance is back to
real 0m0.603s
user 0m0.457s
sys 0m0.140s

The default on the binary /system/bin/dallvikvm on Android 11 has changed to generate an OAT file on every invocation which is not needed when simply running a .dex/.class file.

I compared older versions of /system/bin/dallvikvm and found out that the -Xnoimage-dex2oat was in fact the default.
However on some Android 11 it is not

Steps to reproduce the behavior.

Write any Hello hello world in Java
Use ecj to get .class file
Use dx to make a .dex file
Add dex file to CLASSPATH
use dalvikvm mypackage.Hello

What is the expected behavior?
