03:18.30 | golinux | TheTrueHohoah: The RC has not been officially released yet. Announcement is written but not sent yet. |
03:18.39 | TheTrueHohoah | Ok |
03:18.52 | TheTrueHohoah | When it is released will I be able to upgrade through apt or is there some complex method |
03:19.17 | golinux | I don't know that the upgraded packages are available in the repos yet. |
03:19.50 | golinux | Just a normal apt upgrade should do it. |
03:21.27 | TheTrueHohoah | `apt full-upgrade` or `apt upgrade` |
03:29.17 | gnarface | apt-get update && apt-get upgrade && apt-get dist-upgrade |
03:29.25 | gnarface | (standard procedure from debian manual) |
03:29.39 | gnarface | apt or aptitude should work the same |
03:29.43 | gnarface | this part hasn't changed from debian |
03:29.52 | gnarface | only some of the underlying implementation details at the repo end |
03:30.43 | gnarface | (the dist-upgrade part is only necessary when changing to a new release) |
04:00.35 | TheTrueHohoah | When will the new system be released then? Why make an announcement without actually releasing the system |
04:02.35 | gnarface | TheTrueHohoah: its |
04:03.12 | gnarface | TheTrueHohoah: it's called "RC" standing for "release candidate" - the announcement is to get more people to test so that it CAN be released |
04:03.21 | TheTrueHohoah | Oh |
04:03.39 | gnarface | think of it like a soft launch |
04:03.57 | gnarface | i don't know of any specific timeline though |

05:16.04 | gnarface | TheTrueHOOHA: btw, just fyi I didn't see the actual announcement, but I doubt it was intended to trick you. most likely it simply never occurred to them that "RC" wasn't commonly-known jargon |
05:16.50 | TheTrueHOOHA | I haven't heard "RC" used since 2007 back when I used Windows and was Demo Testing Winsows 7 RC 3 |
05:16.57 | TheTrueHOOHA | I forgot what it meant |
05:17.00 | TheTrueHOOHA | Maybe it is common |
05:17.26 | gnarface | it's common terminology in Linux because the kernel still uses it regularly |
05:18.15 | gnarface | we got our own way of doing things over here, some of them will probably remind you of ages past |
05:19.01 | gnarface | mostly that's because Windows had to keep changing the way they do things to meet the expectations of "freshness" from a casual consumer perspective |
05:19.12 | gnarface | whereas in Linux there was generally no reason to change what works |

17:28.02 | Enrico_Menotti | Hello. I googled a bit but didn't find many docs on setting up Devuan (but I may be wrong). So I'd ask here some things - maybe this is not the right place; please let me know if I should address elsewhere. |
17:28.14 | Enrico_Menotti | The first thing I need to do is configuring the keyboard layout. |
17:28.39 | Enrico_Menotti | If I got it right, in Debian these days this involves systemd; so how to do that in Devuan? |
17:32.57 | KatolaZ | Enrico_Menotti: console or desktop? |
17:34.33 | Enrico_Menotti | Console. |
17:36.58 | gnarface | dpkg-reconfigure uh... |
17:37.14 | gnarface | was it console-setup? |
17:37.24 | gnarface | unless you mean locales |
17:37.38 | gnarface | or was it keyboard-configuration? |
17:37.45 | gnarface | maybe dpkg-reconfigure keyboard-configuration |
17:37.57 | gnarface | that makes the most sense, that's the guess i'm going with |
17:39.54 | KatolaZ | it should be console-setup, IIRC |
17:40.06 | gnarface | i think in some cases you have to do that *and* locales though? |
17:40.07 | gnarface | not sure |
17:40.35 | gnarface | Enrico_Menotti: it still basically works the way it worked in debian wheezy and earlier |
17:41.43 | Enrico_Menotti | Ok, I already configured the locales. |
17:44.49 | Enrico_Menotti | console-setup sets the fonts, basically. Not the keyboard. |
17:47.19 | *** join/#devuan debgeek (bee46a02@gateway/web/freenode/ip.190.228.106.2) |
17:47.33 | KatolaZ | Enrico_Menotti: it's keyboard-configuration |
17:47.34 | KatolaZ | sorry |
17:47.51 | *** join/#devuan enoch (~enoch@unaffiliated/enoch) |
17:49.59 | Enrico_Menotti | Ok, I'm doing that. I have a Fujitsu Siemens lifebook (very old...). I'm wondering whether the right keyboard model be the AMILO laptop (this is the only one listed from that brand). |
17:51.07 | KatolaZ | Enrico_Menotti: I would try a standard 105 PC keyboard first |
17:51.18 | KatolaZ | and then try to adjust it if it doesn't work as expected... |
17:51.57 | Enrico_Menotti | 105 is with the numpad, right? |
17:52.47 | Enrico_Menotti | My keyboard has 88 keys. |
17:53.06 | Enrico_Menotti | (Like a piano, if I'm right... :) ) |
17:54.07 | KatolaZ | does any of those 88 keys not work as expected? |
17:54.08 | KatolaZ | :) |
17:54.14 | KatolaZ | I mean, when you use 105? |
17:55.10 | Enrico_Menotti | I'm trying with the AMILO - let me see - otherwise I will try with the 105. I will see whether is is untuned :) . |
18:00.28 | Enrico_Menotti | None works - tried 4 combinations (AMILO/105 with Italian/Italian+winkeys). |
18:03.05 | Enrico_Menotti | It's strange, because Debian works perfectly (but there I chose the keyboard at installation time). |
18:03.22 | gnarface | i wonder if you have to log out and log back in for the changes to take effect? |
18:04.06 | *** join/#devuan enoch (~enoch@unaffiliated/enoch) |
18:09.53 | Enrico_Menotti | No difference. |
18:10.49 | Enrico_Menotti | Ok, I ran again dpkg-reconfigure console-setup. That seems to work. |
18:11.18 | gnarface | hmm, so there is some order you have to run them |
18:11.51 | gnarface | maybe one of them clobbers the config for another |
18:13.53 | Enrico_Menotti | I am trying with the AMILO. Seems to work for the most important things. I also have a fn key which should enable the numpad (which is mapped on some alphabetic characters), but that does not work. Anyway, I will stick here - for my present needs that's enough. |
18:14.26 | gnarface | numpad is usually numlock key actually |
18:15.00 | gnarface | the fn key should enable functions labeled in a different distinct color |
18:15.04 | Enrico_Menotti | Ah yes sorry. |
18:15.08 | Enrico_Menotti | That works. |
18:15.11 | gnarface | cool |
18:15.40 | gnarface | usually it's there where it falls apart for me typically |
18:15.46 | gnarface | on different models of laptops |
18:16.07 | gnarface | brightness will be present but not on the right keys |
18:16.11 | gnarface | stuff like that |
18:17.05 | Enrico_Menotti | The most annoying thing is the caps lock led not working. Also in Debian. I should check with the Win XP which is still on the HD. |
18:17.56 | Enrico_Menotti | Ok, now I'd need a toolchain for building the driver for the usb dongle. I think there is none installed in the minimal (live) Devuan. |

18:28.04 | KatolaZ | Enrico_Menotti: nope |
18:28.11 | KatolaZ | you don't have gcc there |
18:28.27 | fsmithred | Enrico_Menotti, you need build-essential and linux-headers-<kernel version> |
18:29.19 | Enrico_Menotti | So now my problem is that I don't have a network to download these packages, so I need to download them on my other computer. I'm trying to find the right repository. Seems not that easy. |
18:31.55 | gnarface | auto.mirror.devuan.org? |
18:32.24 | Enrico_Menotti | Yes, I'm there, trying to find my way. |
18:35.06 | gnarface | build-essential is actually a metapackage that points to a bunch of stuff |
18:35.52 | Enrico_Menotti | I have it on Debian - I have downloaded it on my other computer, and put it on a usb drive with all its dependencies. |
18:36.10 | Enrico_Menotti | But I am unable to find it for Devuan. |
18:36.43 | gnarface | i don't think meta packages show up in the repo directory that contains the actual packages |
18:36.45 | gnarface | i could be wrong |
18:37.25 | fsmithred | Enrico_Menotti, what's the other computer running? If it's debian jessie, I'm pretty sure you can download the packages from there |
18:37.36 | Enrico_Menotti | No, it's a Mac... |
18:37.42 | fsmithred | oh |
18:38.10 | fsmithred | gcc g++ make dpkg-dev |
18:38.20 | fsmithred | I'm pretty sure you already have libc6 |
18:38.46 | Enrico_Menotti | But I even don't find gcc... I'll look again. |
18:38.57 | gnarface | also libc6-dev libc-dev |
18:39.04 | gnarface | also libc6-dev OR it says i guess libc-dev |
18:39.21 | Enrico_Menotti | I'm in /devuan/pool/main on auto.mirror.devuan.org. |
18:39.33 | fsmithred | oops, yeah libc6-dev |
18:39.47 | fsmithred | I'm going by apt-cache depends build-essential |
18:39.57 | fsmithred | headers need some other pkgs, too |
18:40.37 | Enrico_Menotti | I found debootstrap, that could be useful later on. |

18:49.16 | fsmithred | I think you will only find packages that have been changed by devuan |
18:49.20 | fsmithred | right |
18:49.27 | fsmithred | get them from packages.debian.org |
18:49.35 | fsmithred | they are the same |
18:49.57 | fsmithred | I didn't find anything in the deps that had devuan in the file name |
18:50.02 | fsmithred | package name |
18:51.53 | Enrico_Menotti | What about the warning "The package repositories for Devuan are exclusive and they should not be used in addition to Debian" at https://devuan.org, right after "Packages"? |
18:55.19 | Enrico_Menotti | Also, if I manage to get a network access, should I use just the sources listed there (auto.mirror.devuan.org) or also the Debian mirror? |
18:55.40 | fsmithred | yes, normally any unchanged packages get pulled from debian |
18:55.41 | fsmithred | so |
18:55.41 | KatolaZ | Enrico_Menotti: no debian mirror |
18:55.43 | fsmithred | in devuan |
18:55.49 | gnarface | i use auto.mirror.devuan.org |
18:56.03 | fsmithred | apt-get install build-essential works by pulling from debian |
18:56.12 | Enrico_Menotti | So all packages should be there, right? |
18:56.23 | fsmithred | but since you don't have a connection, you need to pull them yourself |
18:56.27 | fsmithred | all should be where? |
18:56.41 | fsmithred | not at auto.mirror.devuan |
18:56.50 | fsmithred | they are not held on a devuan server |
18:57.11 | fsmithred | only the changed packages are on devuan server |
18:57.16 | Enrico_Menotti | Ah ok. So at auto.mirror.devuan.org just the specific Devuan packages are listed, right? |
18:57.24 | fsmithred | it's a fancy filter |
18:57.45 | fsmithred | smart enough to give you devuan packages that exist and debian packages for the rest |
18:58.33 | fsmithred | but the warning is correct - don't put debian in sources.list |
18:58.39 | Enrico_Menotti | In some way, if I got it, when a Debian package is required it redirects to the Debian repos, right? |
18:59.51 | gnarface | i did not realize this |
19:00.12 | gnarface | that does explain why it works with apt-get but not with a browser though |
19:01.13 | Enrico_Menotti | So at this point I already have all the toolchain in my usb drive. I will install with dpkg from there. After dinner, though. Thank you everybody. |

22:25.54 | KatolaZ | cool Enrico_Menotti |
22:26.18 | KatolaZ | please report feedback on the issues |
22:27.03 | Enrico_Menotti | First, the gcc version required by build-essentials and linux-headers is different (4.9 for the former, 4.8 for the latter, if I'm right). So I had to install both. With all correspondent dependencies. |
22:27.39 | Enrico_Menotti | Second, the wlan interfaces is named in a very complicated way, not just as wlan0. Don't know whether the name be the same at each reboot. |
22:28.28 | Enrico_Menotti | Third, there is a folder /etc/network/interfaces.d, as in Debian, but the files in there are not seen by the system. I had to configure the interface in /etc/network/interfaces. |
22:28.45 | Enrico_Menotti | That's it. Hope having been useful. |
22:29.45 | KatolaZ | Enrico_Menotti: oytu have setnet,sh |
22:29.48 | KatolaZ | setnet.sh |
22:29.51 | KatolaZ | for network configuration |
22:30.32 | Enrico_Menotti | I don't know that. I followed the instructions at the Debian wiki. What's this? |
22:30.45 | KatolaZ | a simple dialog tool |
22:30.52 | KatolaZ | to configure networking |
22:31.32 | Enrico_Menotti | Ok, but the two facts about the interface I reported are true, right? |
22:31.43 | KatolaZ | dunno about wlan names |
22:31.47 | KatolaZ | I will double-check |
22:32.06 | Enrico_Menotti | And the files in interfaces.d? |

22:49.36 | Enrico_Menotti | The solution I found by googling is to create an "empty" file 75-persistent-net-generator.rules (actually, I put a # in it). |
22:49.53 | Enrico_Menotti | At this point, no more persistent net rules. |
22:51.14 | Enrico_Menotti | Ok, good night. |
22:52.31 | DocScrutinizer05 | lol yeah. 75-persistent-net-generator.rules overrides 70-persistent-net.rules |
22:52.51 | DocScrutinizer05 | my uneducated guess |
22:54.38 | golinux | DocScrutinizer05: Good that you saved that quote for posterity. It's also on dng iirc. |
22:57.43 | DocScrutinizer05 | I wonder how that comment vanished from git |
22:58.03 | DocScrutinizer05 | must still exist somewhere, no? |
22:58.24 | DocScrutinizer05 | git cracks to the rescue!! |
22:59.29 | golinux | All dictators like to erase history. |

23:01.39 | DocScrutinizer05 | git is supposed to defeat such censorship |
23:02.35 | DocScrutinizer05 | git is a strictly history based 'filesystem' AIUI. You simply can't delete one intermediate state |
23:03.15 | DocScrutinizer05 | you can corrupt it when you have root access |
23:03.28 | DocScrutinizer05 | but then at least the corruption still is visible |
23:04.04 | KatolaZ | DocScrutinizer05: you can stash commits and force a rebase |
23:04.08 | DocScrutinizer05 | well, s/root/system level/ |
23:04.46 | DocScrutinizer05 | wouldn't a remote rebase also show up in server side git 'history' |
23:04.48 | DocScrutinizer05 | ? |

23:06.17 | DocScrutinizer05 | so unless poettering has system level access (aka unix shell account) to github.com, I don't see how he could make comments vanish completely |
23:07.21 | DocScrutinizer05 | but then, I never really looked into how gitblub works |
23:07.58 | DocScrutinizer05 | maybe the ticket system isn't even git based, no idea here |
23:16.12 | DocScrutinizer05 | to start with, there should be a git specific view to the tickets/comments content. Without that, the comment is lost for the greater public |
23:16.46 | golinux | Would it be in the waybackmachine? |
23:17.23 | DocScrutinizer05 | if somebody triggered a backup, yes |
23:17.59 | DocScrutinizer05 | (git) sth like git checkout https://github.com/systemd/systemd/issues/ or somesuch? |
23:18.18 | DocScrutinizer05 | nfc, git noob here |
23:20.45 | DocScrutinizer05 | err, git clone https://github.com/systemd/ ? |
23:21.30 | DocScrutinizer05 | don't know if sth like web/ or www/ or issues/ wold be available in there |
23:22.34 | KatolaZ | DocScrutinizer05: if you want to clone the repo, you should try |
23:22.43 | KatolaZ | git clone https://github.com/systemd/systemd |
23:23.17 | DocScrutinizer05 | cloning |
23:23.33 | DocScrutinizer05 | tried git clone https://github.com/systemd/ - failed |
23:23.58 | KatolaZ | that's just the user's directory |
23:24.05 | KatolaZ | (yes, the username is systemd) |
23:25.00 | DocScrutinizer05 | hmm, http://paste.ubuntu.com/24423524 |

23:41.45 | KatolaZ | DocScrutinizer05: dunno whether clone also gets issues |
23:42.08 | DocScrutinizer05 | pnviously not, though it's a question what you're cloning ;-) |
23:42.14 | DocScrutinizer05 | obviously* |
23:43.21 | DocScrutinizer05 | git clone https://github.com/systemd/systemd/www or whatever still may exist |
23:43.48 | DocScrutinizer05 | oops sorry |
23:43.58 | DocScrutinizer05 | git clone https://github.com/systemd/www |
23:44.37 | DocScrutinizer05 | as stated, no clue about gitblub here |
23:45.53 | DocScrutinizer05 | well, I think I've been enough of OT to piss off a lot of people in here, so I'll shut up |
