02:27.59 | altker128 | Hi guys. I'm a long time Debian user , but not thrilled with systemd. However there are a lot of .DEBs out there for Debian, curious if I should expect compatability issues if I use Devuan |
02:30.40 | unixman_home | Use Devuan with Devuan repositories, no problem. Random .deb packages, no clue. |
02:35.58 | squeakypancakes | If you need extra software flatpak works regardless of init system |
02:38.02 | golinux | UGH! |
02:38.35 | ChuangTzu | Devuan is a great drop in replacement for Debian. |
02:39.29 | ChuangTzu | What .debs do you need that are not in the repos? |
02:40.00 | altker128 | ChuangTzu: It comes up randomly, I don't have a specific example. But, Zulip for example, or SoGO (the groupware software) |
02:40.44 | ChuangTzu | if the dependencies are in the Devuan repos and its not systemd required then it should work fine |
02:40.47 | altker128 | squeakypancakes: flatpak I'm guessing basically uses lxc on the backend |
02:40.49 | altker128 | ? |
02:41.06 | ChuangTzu | of course, once you start installing outside the repos YMMV |

09:24.21 | stuttgart | Flatpak/snap aren't the solution but I still think package management has to be unified. Distros don't really do anything different from each other when it comes to packaging, the main difference is on binary vs source-based distros and there's nothing in the way of making a package manager capable of both. |

09:26.29 | stuttgart | with the way it currently is distros are doing the same work independently and wasting everyone's time |
09:26.48 | Chanku | Not necessarily. A unified system would make things like devuan a bit harder. |
09:27.09 | Chanku | Although I will note that devuan itself does use Debian packages 99% of the time, recompiling only what needs to be done. |

09:28.25 | stuttgart | I'm saying most/all linux distros could use sharing the same packaging system, they could still make their own repos with their own patches if so desired. |
09:28.34 | KatolaZ | stuttgart: flatpak/snap are a windows-style solution |

09:29.05 | Chanku | Distros like NixOS certianly wouldn't get anything from a universal system. |
09:29.30 | KatolaZ | it also works on windows, after all.... |
09:29.40 | Chanku | Especially because their FS layout is different, and they have entirely different requirements from other Distros |
09:29.53 | KatolaZ | (unless it gets quite messy if you have several different versions of anything) |
09:30.16 | KatolaZ | bbl |
09:30.35 | Chanku | Further it would additionally impose certain systems onto a distro. Which means that a single person at a single distro can impose things like systemd onto everyone. |
09:31.29 | Chanku | Additionally, I dont' necessarily think unifiying package manage is a good, or really desired, solution in the end. |
09:32.15 | Chanku | and see ya KatolaZ |
09:33.51 | Chanku | I don't view the several different package managers as being necessarily a bad thing. People will generally chose what they end up liking. |

15:48.43 | grillon | hi there, I would like to launch remote x app without ssh forwarding but I always have can't open display |
15:49.26 | KatolaZ | grillon: how can you laungh a remote X app without ssh forwarding? |
15:49.47 | KatolaZ | (I mean, you can, but normally X11 won't listen on tcp connections by default) |
15:50.02 | grillon | I want my X server to listen |
15:50.18 | grillon | I took off -nolisten tcp |
15:50.21 | KatolaZ | grillon: shake it |
15:50.22 | KatolaZ | :D |
15:51.05 | furrywolf | xhost +whatever, where whatever is the proper mask you need to add to allow the connections |
15:51.14 | grillon | I did xhost+ too |
15:51.28 | grillon | so normaly theres no auth |
15:52.00 | furrywolf | then make sure the DISPLAY variable is appropriately set |
15:52.14 | grillon | my DISPLAY is ok |
15:52.33 | grillon | I have read port 6000 should be listening it's not |
15:52.39 | furrywolf | if your xhost is ok, and your display is ok, it's obviously working fine, so there's nothing to ask about. :P |
15:53.20 | grillon | it's not ok |
15:53.45 | grillon | on which port X should listen? |
15:54.18 | grillon | I have read it : https://www.linuxquestions.org/questions/linux-server-73/can%27t-open-display-no-protocol-specified-using-gdm-4175462031/ |
15:54.51 | grillon | and launch X manually to be sure to avoid authentication but it still does not work |
15:55.05 | grillon | as X is not listening outside of localhost |
15:56.06 | furrywolf | just for curiosity, what use case do you have where you need remote X, but don't want it over ssh? |
15:57.12 | grillon | I want it to be fast. I want to do a private network cluster and use each machine for different task |
15:57.24 | grillon | all these machines would use the same display |
15:57.59 | grillon | I think about vlan for that but. To start simple I have a simple network for my fist iteration |
15:58.30 | furrywolf | have you tried -listen tcp? |
15:58.38 | grillon | lol |
15:58.41 | grillon | let's try :p |
16:01.03 | grillon | it works! |
16:01.13 | furrywolf | yay! :) |
16:01.27 | furrywolf | so it's not just a default command line option now, it's apparantly default somewhere in the code too. |
16:01.28 | grillon | every where I have seen take off -nolisten tcp |
16:01.39 | grillon | thank you furrywolf!!! |
16:01.56 | grillon | seems so |
16:02.43 | furrywolf | which means somewhere changed default behavior in a way that breaks things, and probably didn't tell anyone... which is, sadly, all too common. |
16:02.46 | furrywolf | someone |
16:04.07 | furrywolf | heh, googling finds a few bugs filed about this, the first one I checked was closed WONTFIX. |
16:04.27 | grillon | what is this wontfix bug |
16:04.46 | furrywolf | that the default behavior of xorg changed |
16:05.13 | *** join/#devuan Human_G33k (~HumanG33k@62.147.242.8) |
16:05.32 | furrywolf | looks like xorg 1.17 changed from listening on tcp by default to not listening by default. |
16:06.43 | furrywolf | https://access.redhat.com/errata/RHBA-2016:1402 redhat released a patched version to restore the old behavior due to bug reports |
16:08.11 | furrywolf | however, realisticly, not listening on tcp is probably a sane default these days... I haven't seen non-ssh remote X in a very long time. |
16:08.21 | furrywolf | and X is not known for its security. |
16:08.30 | furrywolf | probably better to have it not listening anywhere |
16:09.01 | *** join/#devuan AntoFox (~Thunderbi@dynamic-adsl-78-12-53-115.clienti.tiscali.it) |
16:09.13 | grillon | I think you're right. that's why I want to use it on a private network |
16:09.35 | grillon | if it's not significantly faster I'll give up |
16:09.51 | furrywolf | heh, I remember waaaaaaay back when, in a lab of sun boxes, the fun of opening things on other people's xservers... :P |
16:11.13 | grillon | :) |
16:11.41 | grillon | seems the problem of nolisten tcp is every where now I have the problem with lxdm :( |
16:12.06 | grillon | the default is launching X with nolisten and it seems it cannot be overriden |
16:12.26 | grillon | a default behaviour is a thing but why I'm forced :( |
16:13.39 | furrywolf | you can also set it in the xorg.conf somewhere, which will work if the dm simply isn't specifying anything and leaving x to use its default, but probably won't override if the dm is explicitly adding it to the command line. |
16:13.51 | furrywolf | if your dm is sticking stuff on the xorg command line and not letting you change it, that's a bug in the dm. |
16:15.32 | grillon | sorry it's ok, it was an old bug corrected :p |

16:37.45 | freem | msiism, what do you have in /etc/rc0.d ? |
16:38.04 | xrogaan | after an aptitude update, we sometimes get this: Status: 77133 (+9) new. Is there a way to know what package are new? |
16:38.43 | freem | xrogaan, you can just start aptitude without option, it's send you to the ncurses interface, which shows which ones are new. |
16:39.51 | freem | I think you might also use the search option for that, but I don't know for sure since I use aptitude on commandline very rarely. |
16:44.18 | msiism | freem: quite some stuff. shall i paste that somewhere? |
16:44.58 | freem | msiism, is there is a file named SXXntp, or something like this? (XX being a number) |
16:45.28 | xrogaan | aptitude shows all non installed packaged as "new" |
16:45.44 | msiism | freem: no, there isn't. those files all start with K on my system. |
16:45.57 | freem | xrogaan, did you changed your sources.list recently? |
16:46.03 | xrogaan | no |
16:46.11 | xrogaan | i'm interested in the +9 |
16:46.30 | freem | msiism, I guess it would have been too easy... |
16:48.32 | freem | xrogaan, usually, I ask aptitude to forgot which packages are new, which is something that can be configured to be made automatically. You may have more luck with "aptitude search '~N'", but I think it will show you the same list as the ncurses interface. |
16:49.22 | xrogaan | indeed |
16:49.51 | xrogaan | alright, marked as not new |

17:45.38 | msiism | filipdevuan: it's not free of GNU, if that's what you mean. |
17:46.05 | xrogaan | no gnu were killed in the making of devuan |
17:46.32 | msiism | filipdevuan: but you probably want to know of it's 100% free according to GNU/FSF standards. no, it's not. |
17:46.46 | filipdevuan | oh okay |
17:47.05 | filipdevuan | ok thanx :) |
17:47.19 | msiism | filipdevuan: but the issue is being discussed. |
17:47.31 | filipdevuan | where? |
17:47.44 | msiism | devuan-dev mailing list |
17:48.00 | msiism | you should be able to view the archive online. |
17:48.03 | fsmithred | we have a blob-free kernel, same (exactly) as debian |
17:48.18 | fsmithred | but we don't hide non-free from you or prevent you from using it |
17:48.45 | filipdevuan | so gnu/fsf standards OS's prevent you from using non free software? |
17:48.50 | freem | the problem is explained by the FSF here: https://www.gnu.org/distros/common-distros.html (search for Debian, the Devuan's situation is probably the same) |
17:49.00 | fsmithred | libre kernel prevents use of non-free firmware |
17:49.38 | fsmithred | that's not required for fsf approval, but I think the fact that we tell you where the non-free repo is might disqualify us |
17:53.52 | filipdevuan | ok right |
17:54.48 | fsmithred | pl43c, official netinstall iso works, too. I did notice that it doesn't boot if I do it over ssh. |
17:56.12 | freem | filipdevuan, also, some stuff produced by the FSF are not considered free by Debian, and so probably Devuan (like, gdb's documentation IIRC). So, basically, Debian's point of view and FSF's are not 100% compatible. |
17:56.42 | msiism | filipdevuan: also, including non-free wifi drivers because they may be needed to install on some hardware, is against the GNUish notion of freedom. |
17:56.42 | pl43c | fsmithred: odd wonder why it's not working for me |
17:57.46 | fsmithred | qemu-system-x86_64 -enable-kvm -bios /usr/share/ovmf/OVMF.fd -m 512 -cdrom devuan_ascii_2.0.0_amd64_netinst.iso -soundhw hda -smp cores=2,threads=2 |
17:58.16 | filipdevuan | shit |
17:58.40 | fsmithred | ? |
18:02.07 | pl43c | fsmithred: it works with a spice server |
18:02.12 | pl43c | and removing the nvida |
18:02.18 | filipdevuan | i also wonder whats exactly systemd, i just wonder if its 100% true that there are open processes in background that track your activity. i know that probably theres ME in my processor however i can't help it |
18:02.22 | pl43c | guess I'll add the nvidia back in after the install |
18:02.31 | fsmithred | ok, I guess that makes sense - nvidia is good for black screen |
18:03.01 | pl43c | https://www.redhat.com/archives/vfio-users/2018-May/msg00025.html |
18:03.10 | pl43c | yeah I had discovered this not too long ago |
18:03.30 | pl43c | didn't know certain versions of nouveau didn't produce output at all under kvm lol |
18:04.26 | msiism | filipdevuan: "As it turns out, most people donât even know what systemd is. I develop uselessd, and I donât either, really. At least, I cannot think of a concise explanation that properly conveys systemdâs scope." (http://uselessd.darknedgy.net/ProSystemdAntiSystemd/) :D |
18:05.03 | freem | filipdevuan, systemd do have processes in background to know if it have to start, stop, restart, etc a daemon, but I really doubt it spies user's activity to send it anywhere. |
18:06.27 | freem | anyway, there is way simpler ways to spie on someone using traditional linux desktop distributions: ask stuff to Xorg. |
18:06.28 | filipdevuan | i remember i used fedora for few days and i enjoyed however i havent enjoyed view of some tracker processes like tracker.miner etc. i was like what the heck is tracker.miner or other trackers |
18:07.31 | freem | I doubt fedora installs crypto miners, really. I'd say you installed something nasty, that did it. Or clicked on the wrong website. |
18:08.20 | msiism | filipdevuan: there are still some trackers to enjoy in Devuan, e.g., milkytracker, goattracker or schism. (no, it's not a joke, even though it is, kind of.) |
18:13.44 | filipdevuan | freem i am not sure but you may be right |
18:13.59 | filipdevuan | oh god those damn trackers ;P |
18:17.43 | xrogaan | the GNU philosophy is nice on paper. But in effect I want to be able to access my stuff without needing to hack my machine. |
18:19.02 | xrogaan | so I'll use the non-free firmware. |
18:19.49 | filipdevuan | i really like gnome desktop and during devuan installation i can't really choose it |
18:19.57 | freem | ok, so, dpkg-reconfigure console-data does it's job, but it seems something should add "loadkeys /etc/console/boottime.kmap.gz" somewhere. I probably am forgetting something trivial... |
18:20.55 | msiism | filipdevuan: that's because it's so tightly coupled with systemd. |
18:20.57 | freem | filipdevuan, IIRC it's possible, but I tend to only go expert mode. Maybe the question is not enabled in the mode you used. |
18:21.27 | filipdevuan | oh damn |
18:21.47 | xrogaan | yeah, gnome forces systemd. It's silly and a reason why systemd is bad. |
18:21.48 | filipdevuan | yeah ubuntu or fedora environments were always like exotic and nice to me |
18:21.49 | freem | msiism, are you sure gnome depends on systemd? I doubt it, I'm almost certain to have seen it in void or in some *BSD systems, which are *not* using systemd. |
18:22.26 | msiism | freem: then these distros apparently bothered rebuilding the whole thing. |
18:22.28 | xrogaan | filipdevuan: if you want to read more https://wiki.debian.org/Debate/initsystem/systemd |
18:23.30 | freem | would make sense to rebuild. But if a simple compilation option have to be provided, we can't honestly say that gnome depends on systemd, right? |

20:14.39 | msiism | xrogaan: you can manage your network interfaces via /etc/network/interfaces instaed. |
20:14.49 | freem | xrogaan, no, you can also just configure /etc/network/interfaces, or do it by hand. |

20:15.34 | xrogaan | i only have wired, so the "extra" bit is of no concern for me. |
20:15.55 | msiism | xrogaan: and you're using wicd? |
20:16.09 | xrogaan | no, it's installed by default. |
20:16.24 | msiism | so, it's installed but you are not using it? |
20:16.45 | xrogaan | I have no idea how it's supposed to work. |
20:17.09 | msiism | xrogaan: what do you want to do? |
20:17.16 | xrogaan | I didn't configure the thing, so I don't know if it's necessary for my network. |
20:17.35 | xrogaan | Well, do I need it? If not, I remove it. |
20:17.41 | freem | you don't need it. |
20:17.49 | msiism | xrogaan: does it work? |
20:17.50 | freem | but, you need to know before how to setup a network |
20:18.03 | xrogaan | I don't know if it works, it's just there. |
20:18.36 | msiism | xrogaan: ok, then it supposedly works. so, why remove it? |
20:19.07 | xrogaan | because it's an extra piece running on my computer, and if it does nothing then it has no use? |
20:19.28 | msiism | the thing is that, it's not like these network managers in desktops are just frontends to the management via /etc/network/interfaces |
20:19.49 | msiism | you have to decide for either the one or the other. |
20:20.23 | freem | yep, ifupdown and the network managers can not work on the same system. |
20:20.30 | msiism | using /etc/network/interface is more or less a pain to use, imo. (i use it...) |
20:21.09 | msiism | so, just as an idea: if wicd work for yxou, which it seems to do, you're probably better off staying with it. |
20:21.19 | freem | a pain? I'd say it's easy, especially when you play with different network, some without dhcpd |
20:21.52 | msiism | freem: but certainly more work than using a working wicd. |
20:22.26 | freem | probably, yes. Better control on stuff implies learning stuff and doing a bit more work. |

20:24.47 | freem | you should at least read some doc on /etc/network/interfaces (it's man, maybe) before trying to remove stuff related to network. And be sure to keep a dhcpcd and ifupdown. Or learn how to use the ip-* commands. |

20:35.11 | fsmithred | toggled! |
20:35.12 | msiism | so binary is raw. ok. |
20:35.32 | xrogaan | 10001011 < this is also binary |
20:36.55 | fsmithred | 278? |
20:38.01 | xrogaan | https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=rf6oFSEdbKI |
20:38.25 | xrogaan | > Hello World (Assemblers, Considered Harmful?!) |
20:38.31 | msiism | prefers bash to binary |
20:39.01 | freem | what about gray binary? |
20:42.37 | xrogaan | some dude at the start believed assemblers to be harmful, because it would facilitate stuff and keep you from learning the memory addresses of your machine. |
20:44.28 | freem | what would he say, seing that now entire softwares are written nodejs and electron... |
20:47.16 | xrogaan | he wouldn't care because, like stallman, he wouldn't use nor see those. |

21:39.12 | aitor | i've sent a message to the gnuetertics.org |
21:39.24 | aitor | just a greeting |
21:45.20 | msiism | i just realized i've never checked their website. interesting project. |
21:46.58 | aitor | yes :) |
21:48.49 | msiism | i've done community radio in the past (though no larger part of the community seemed to notice) |
21:52.47 | aitor | the founder seems to be a bit shy |
21:54.08 | msiism | what's founder in spanish? |
21:54.30 | aitor | fundador |
21:55.21 | msiism | and Diseñador and Desarrollador? what do these mean? |
21:55.45 | aitor | the person who started the project, better than Creator |
21:57.07 | msiism | both mean the same then? |
21:57.56 | aitor | msiism: you have spanish setxkbmap! |
21:58.08 | aitor | you have the ñ! |
21:58.36 | msiism | aitor: no, i just copied that form the website. but i could do it with my keboard setup as well, i guess. :) |
21:59.54 | aitor | cheat :) |
22:02.22 | msiism | ok, it doesn't work... |
22:06.55 | aitor | i'm still waiting for the answer comming from gnuetertics.org, i await eagerly |
22:06.55 | filipdevuan | iv downloaded kde plasma once and it was so weird |
22:08.33 | aitor | msiism == gnu_srs ? |
22:12.55 | msiism | aitor: no. |
22:13.19 | golinux | LOL! aitor always good for a chuckle |

23:33.55 | logo4poop | hey! i have a little problem with ASCII 2.0.0. When i am at 12% at de |
23:33.57 | logo4poop | oops |
23:34.09 | logo4poop | Delect and install software |
23:34.20 | logo4poop | my screen just freezes |
23:34.27 | logo4poop | anyone kenow the fix? |
23:35.23 | *** join/#devuan dog_ (~underd0g@89-201-168-75.dsl.optinet.hr) |
23:35.31 | gnarface | how sure are you that it actually froze? did you try alt+f4 (no it's not a joke) |
23:36.30 | gnarface | there could have been a number of reasons but without more evidence i can't tell you much |
23:37.04 | gnarface | it may simply appear frozen if your bandwidth is being throttled down to a trickle |
23:37.17 | gnarface | but in that case you should be able to pull up a different virtual terminal to see |
23:37.28 | logo4poop | its fully frozen |
23:37.55 | logo4poop | i have tried a few times |
23:38.03 | logo4poop | also it said it installed discover |
23:38.07 | gnarface | is it always at 12% that it freezes exactly? |
23:38.16 | gnarface | or does it just freeze at random places after it starts installing? |
23:38.45 | logo4poop | yup |
23:38.49 | logo4poop | always 12 |
23:39.03 | gnarface | hmmm. very strange |
23:39.16 | logo4poop | i believe i saw a old debian post about it |
23:39.18 | gnarface | kinda like you're running out of ram or disk space, but i'd expect an error |
23:39.24 | gnarface | what did the debian post say about it? |
23:39.35 | logo4poop | whats the mininum needed? |
23:39.47 | logo4poop | i would think it would be less than 4gb |
23:39.55 | gnarface | it's less |
23:40.03 | logo4poop | so it should work imo |
23:40.23 | gnarface | it definitely should |
23:40.35 | *** join/#devuan logo4poop_ (61464653@gateway/web/freenode/ip.97.70.70.83) |
23:40.35 | gnarface | what did the debian post say about it? might it have said to use acpi=off? |
23:40.49 | logo4poop_ | lemme link you to the post |
23:41.25 | logo4poop_ | https://bugs.debian.org/cgi-bin/bugreport.cgi?bug=794410 |
23:42.06 | logo4poop_ | looks like something to do with realtek drivers |
23:42.26 | logo4poop_ | i thought i had realtek only for ethernet tho |
23:43.10 | logo4poop_ | that guy is using uefi tho i am just using legacy |
23:43.16 | gnarface | hmmm. interesting |
23:43.39 | gnarface | are you able to complete the install if you don't select that networking device during install? |
23:43.52 | logo4poop_ | idk |
23:43.53 | gnarface | it may be possible to fix after your first boot |
23:44.02 | logo4poop_ | i want to have internet tho |
23:44.18 | logo4poop_ | how hard is it to set it up? |
23:44.21 | gnarface | i'm not suggesting that you'd go without it |
23:44.45 | gnarface | it is no harder to set up after install than during it. |
23:44.49 | logo4poop_ | ok |
23:45.07 | logo4poop_ | could you explain to me how to do it? |
23:45.20 | logo4poop_ | ill try to reinstall |
23:45.30 | logo4poop_ | hopefully i dont have to use ethernet |
23:45.37 | logo4poop_ | as i have no cord with me |
23:45.51 | gnarface | it would be a lot easier for you to use ethernet |
23:46.01 | logo4poop_ | ugh |
23:46.13 | gnarface | wifi is buggy |
23:46.20 | logo4poop_ | i really dont want to |
23:46.42 | gnarface | you could use ethernet just for the install but then switch to wifi afterwards |
23:46.48 | fsmithred | are you using netinstall or dvd? |
23:46.48 | gnarface | that would make your life a lot easier |
23:47.20 | logo4poop_ | dvd |
23:47.31 | logo4poop_ | i dont have a cord sadly |
23:47.34 | fsmithred | so you could install without mirror, without network |
23:47.48 | fsmithred | then install the firmware afterward - it's in /firmware in the iso |
23:47.57 | gnarface | fsmithred: (the bug report from debian that he linked claims the problem is exhibited by the dvd and netinstallers both - it appears at first glance to be a hardware allergy to the wifi driver somehow) |
23:48.36 | fsmithred | were they using a debian iso that had the firmware on it? |
23:49.06 | logo4poop_ | i did dvd-1 |
23:49.47 | gnarface | hmmmm |
23:50.01 | gnarface | none of debian's disks have the firmware |
23:50.06 | gnarface | if i recall |
23:50.16 | logo4poop_ | should i try withuefi maybe? |
23:50.30 | gnarface | and one person mentions that it happens to them with wifi OR ethernet :( |
23:50.31 | filipdevuan | are there thunders in cambridge?? |
23:51.11 | logo4poop_ | one person said turning off acpi worked |
23:51.19 | fsmithred | cambridge, massachusetts? might be thunder there right now |
23:51.31 | gnarface | logo4poop_: try it |
23:51.40 | logo4poop_ | ok |
23:51.50 | gnarface | logo4poop_: that basically just disables power saving |
23:52.03 | logo4poop_ | ok |
23:52.09 | gnarface | it was known to cause all kinds of issues historically |
23:52.50 | gnarface | if you can complete the install without it, you may be able to fix it with an upgraded kernel later |
23:53.06 | gnarface | or maybe just a updated firmware |
23:53.17 | logo4poop_ | btw it does the same with gui aswell |
23:53.23 | fsmithred | newer kernel is needed? |
23:54.20 | logo4poop_ | btw why is it even installing discover |
23:54.33 | logo4poop_ | i am using quadcomm wifi thing |
23:54.42 | gnarface | fsmithred: unclear - people are reporting that disabling acpi and achi worked, as well as just using firmware |
23:55.19 | gnarface | logo4poop_: you could do a minimal install too, just don't install anything until afterwards. that makes it easier for you to control what you get. |
23:55.27 | fsmithred | logo4poop_, how new is this hardware? |
23:55.49 | logo4poop_ | 3 years maybe? |
23:56.10 | fsmithred | ok, maybe you don't need a newer kernel |
23:56.38 | fsmithred | 1+ for minimal install |
23:57.04 | t3chn0 | hi, i have a query: according to https://dev1galaxy.org/viewtopic.php?id=2184&action=new if i were to install ascii-backports would the edit of sources.list consist in adding: |
23:57.06 | logo4poop_ | i do not have a other computer with me rn |
23:57.18 | t3chn0 | deb http://packages.devuan.org/devuan ascii-backports main |
23:57.18 | t3chn0 | deb-src http://packages.devuan.org/devuan ascii-backports main |
23:57.19 | t3chn0 | ? |
23:57.47 | fsmithred | t3chn0, don't use packages.devuan.org for ascii - use deb.devuan.org |
23:58.23 | fsmithred | deb http://deb.devuan.org/merged ascii-backports main |
23:58.29 | t3chn0 | fsmithred, thanks |
23:58.32 | fsmithred | note that it's /merged |
23:58.32 | logo4poop_ | hopefully devuan is worth it |
23:58.38 | t3chn0 | yes |
