The community repositories were merged into extra around to years ago.
Recently the database files got cleaned up on the mirrors, causing
errors in CI. Adjust pacman.conf to remove these deprecated repositories
See https://archlinux.org/news/cleaning-up-old-repositories/ for more
details
Nothing special here - a simple test.yaml akin to the existing ones.
The pacman.conf file is effectively vanilla config that comes with the
pacman package, while the mirrorlist file is a list of UK https mirrors
that I've been using for years.
Note that there is no canonical mirror for Arch. The top-level/tier 1
Arch server should _not_ be used as per the official recommendation.
Instead we use the mirrors set in the official arch docker tooling.
v2:
- Also install archlinux-keyring and makepkg
- Use arch + backend=qemu only testing matrix
v3:
- Use the same mirrors as the Arch docker images tooling
- Build and install pacman locally, until we get an official package
v4:
- Remove the local pacman build - it's available in backports
v5:
- Explicitly pull arch-install-scripts from backports, normal one lack
pacstrap
v6:
- Manually pull the latest keyring - Debian one is outdated
