08:00.03 | free_speech | why should a program that I develop on a Devuan platform not work with the rest of Devuan? |
08:03.18 | onefang | Depends, maybe you developed it on an earlier version of Devuan, but some crucial library you depend on changed in some incompatible way in later versions? And then you have to update your program to work on all versions of this library in all versions of Devuan. This sort of thing happens. |
08:05.20 | free_speech | I bet that if I install Debian Etch (I'll mention Debian now because of its longer version history), it'll also work on Debian Buster ... didn't ever try this, but I bet it'll work fine. |
08:05.35 | onefang | In my case the mouse options for tmux keep changing between versions, so my big virtual world project that uses tmux for running the server consoles has to pick a particular version of tmux to be compatible with. Usually that's what ever version comes with what ever version of what ever operating system I'm currently using on my own server (Devuan ASCII for now). |
08:06.19 | free_speech | My last sentence does not make the intended sense, so I'll correct it ... |
08:06.51 | free_speech | I bet that if I install Debian Etch (I'll mention Debian now because of its longer version history) and develop a program on Etch, my program will also work on Buster. |
08:06.55 | free_speech | That's what I wanted to say |
08:09.10 | onefang | It's entirely possible. But you can't always rely on external projects your program relies on to stay compatible with the way you used it. This is why distros pick particular versions of particular libraries and stick with them for that particular version of the distro. Maybe backports will get a more recent version, if it doesn't break too much other code. |
08:10.12 | onefang | Which is why Digits plan to let ordinary users just update packages on the distros servers is bound to just be pure chaos. Things WILL break. |
08:14.26 | onefang | So it's not "a philosophical pedagogy design fail common to all(?) distros" it's just the way the world works. Things change, you want a stable distro, you better hope the distro maintainers put a lot of work getting the particular versions of everything to work together well for that particular version of the distro, and then that they don't change anything in the particular version you installed that br |
08:14.27 | onefang | eaks anything that's important to you. |
08:14.55 | *** join/#devuan rafalcpp (~racalcppp@84-10-11-234.static.chello.pl) |
08:15.58 | onefang | Which is why making a big distro like Devuan is lots of hard work. If you want to update a package, volunteer to help. |
08:17.55 | onefang | Letting "any newbie user to update a package on the server" will just result in one giant mess that doesn't work for anyone. Not to mention it'll be a giant security mess as well. |
08:19.27 | Digit | still seems like madness to me, to not have tooling to help package updating, upfront, so users get even just the visual cues of what's involved in upgrading packages. just another part of this disconnect i see. |
08:20.38 | Digit | like the many eyes making all bugs shallow, many package updaters make all packages up to date... and many a leg up sign post facilitation makes many a more would be packagers more readily become packagers. |
08:22.48 | onefang | Feel free to write such tooling. The Devuan maintainers are too busy doing their job to write such "newbie user" friendly tools. We do have such tooling, it's a hard job, it's even harder writing tooling to make something that hard easy for "newbie users". |
08:23.44 | Digit | i know it's not as simple as just needs 1 magic button that says "make new package, and make it nice with all other packages", and poof, a number changes somewhere and fairies take care of the rest... but i just think more bridges could be built across the package manager gui between packegers and users, bluring the distinction, encouraging participation and contribution and learning. that kinda thing. |
08:24.45 | onefang | Soooo, write those bridges. The fairies are too busy to write it for you. B-) |
08:25.01 | Digit | yeah, most places, if they're to cater at all to the newbie, it's in coddling, n not so much aimed to helping them towards intermediacy and excellence. |
08:26.05 | Digit | onefang: yeah, i'm on it. .... same as i was on it a decade ago when i last brought it up. n_n ack. ok... maybe i've learned enough that i cou@#~, ack, i've learned nothing. |
08:26.36 | onefang | Which is what I'm trying to do in my big virtual world project. Make it easy for newbie users to run their own, to learn how it all works, to write their own stuff to make it work better for them. That's a really big project, a distro is even bigger. |
08:27.36 | Digit | accepts a poor workman blames his tools, a poor student blames his sourcecode. |
08:29.33 | onefang | "Hey it's easy, just write magic!" says the poor user to the poor overworked developers. |
08:29.59 | onefang | wanders off to write todays little bit of magic. |
08:30.54 | Digit | yeah, just eeasily write the software that deals with the users who ask for that kind of thing, directing them to the documentation. |
08:31.51 | Digit | ah, i think i could do that... i think i even did. ... i wrote an irc bot that answered any question with an rtfg link containing the question. problem solved. ;D |

16:29.32 | golinux | No. there was a hacking session on Sunday |
16:29.47 | jaromil | mmmm if it was streamed then maybe is in the stream |
16:29.50 | jaromil | hi DocScrutinizer05 |
16:30.12 | golinux | jaromil: They hacked after his Sunday talk. |
16:30.57 | golinux | Or at least they intended to. Not sure if it even happened. |
16:31.49 | jaromil | ok, yes, there was sitting at the table with skarnet and I recall about s6 the outcome was that it needs a good deal of scripts to be adapted to devuan |
16:31.56 | jaromil | i'm not aware of any hacking on other inits |
16:32.29 | jaromil | as you probably already know a good deal of those scripts is here https://git.devuan.org/66-devuan/ |
16:32.45 | jaromil | but is not in a final form and noone besides danyspin has tested that |

16:33.21 | golinux | Yes, I am aware of that project. Just pointed someone to it yesterday. |
16:34.26 | jaromil | for the record, i'm quite happy using supervisord in a number of projects... when headless, lovely to have the web interface |
16:34.48 | jaromil | it has improved a lot in beowulf |

20:16.51 | eyalroz | I've gotten myself into a little packaging mess... |
20:17.25 | eyalroz | with gstreamer1.0-plugins-bad (an ominous name) |
20:17.52 | eyalroz | and when I apt --fix-broken install , I get: |
20:17.53 | eyalroz | Preparing to unpack .../gstreamer1.0-plugins-bad_1%3a1.14.4-dmo7_amd64.deb ... |
20:17.54 | eyalroz | Unpacking gstreamer1.0-plugins-bad:amd64 (1:1.14.4-dmo7) over (1.16.1-1) ... |
20:17.54 | eyalroz | dpkg: error processing archive /var/cache/apt/archives/gstreamer1.0-plugins-bad_1%3a1.14.4-dmo7_amd64.deb (--unpack): |
20:17.54 | eyalroz | <PROTECTED> |
20:19.49 | eyalroz | How can I fix this weird conflict? |
20:23.56 | gnarface | eyalroz: looks like you're trying to downgrade - you need to find a newer version of gstreamer1.0-plugins-bad:amd64 |
20:32.00 | gnarface | of course, this does leave some open questions like, "how did my system get this way?" |
20:32.10 | gnarface | usually this is caused by mixing distros, distro versions, or repos |
20:32.27 | gnarface | (backports and deb-multimedia are common culprits) |
20:32.49 | gnarface | it might be sufficient to just get all the gstreamer packages from the same place |
20:33.06 | gnarface | but from where you're at now, if you decide that's not where you want to get some of them, you will probably have to manually uninstall all of them first |
20:33.20 | gnarface | either approach should kill this blockage |
20:42.05 | *** join/#devuan xcm (~xcm@ipa210.225.tellas.gr) |
20:45.17 | eyalroz | gnarface: Well, that might not be the reason, but - I added the winehq staging repo for buster, and tried installing some of the packages there, but couldn't because of weird i386 dependencies |
20:45.28 | eyalroz | Then I removed that apt source |
20:45.34 | eyalroz | maybe that was the cause |
20:45.37 | eyalroz | also, |
20:45.44 | eyalroz | I apt-get dist-upgrade'd again |
20:46.37 | eyalroz | Oh, I think I might have added deb-multimedia |
20:46.55 | gnarface | eyalroz: ok i perceive the possibility of multiple mistakes here cascading. first of all, i'm guessing those weird i386 dependency issues were because you forgot to enable multiarch before switching to the winehq repos |
20:47.15 | gnarface | secondly, you should not be adding all of these repos at once, if you're gonna mix them, mix them one at a time |
20:47.32 | eyalroz | gnarface: I did enabme i386, and had it enabled for a while |
20:47.49 | gnarface | (as in, ONLY have the winehq repo enabled while installing/upgrading the winehq staging packages, then comment it out and "apt-get update" again with the other repos uncommented) |
20:47.58 | eyalroz | but - let's start with: How can I remove all gstreamer packages? (If that makes sense at all and won't bring the house crumbling down) |
20:48.37 | gnarface | well you can try to just "apt-get --purge remove [package 1] [package 2] ... [package N]" |
20:48.50 | gnarface | just put all the gstreamer packages on the same line like that |
20:49.00 | gnarface | but make sure to carefully read the WILL BE REMOVED section |
20:49.11 | gnarface | if anything else you need will be removed, don't do it. |
20:49.31 | eyalroz | gnarface: "all the gstreamer" - get those from a dpkg query? |
20:49.40 | gnarface | yea: dpkg -l |grep gstreamer |
20:50.07 | *** join/#devuan rafalcpp_ (~racalcppp@84-10-11-234.static.chello.pl) |
20:50.22 | eyalroz | gnarface: I think I'll take another approach. Will first remove the deb-multimedia and see what that does. |
20:50.38 | gnarface | well you might have to remove all the packages from there |
20:50.50 | eyalroz | gnarface: I can live with that. |
20:50.50 | gnarface | because they're probably all new enough to be in direct conflict with stock devuan parts |
20:51.12 | gnarface | alternately you could try to just get ALL the gstreamer packages from deb-multimedia at once, that might fix this too |
20:51.18 | eyalroz | gnarface: Ok, that did the trick. |
20:51.19 | gnarface | but you'll still be in the same confused mess if you forget again later |
20:51.37 | eyalroz | gnarface: confused mess is my natural state :-P |
20:51.43 | gnarface | heh |
20:52.07 | eyalroz | Anyway, now my agdu works fine (apt-get dist-upgrade ; I have an alias for it) |
20:53.16 | eyalroz | I was going to try using winehq repos, to try and get Starcraft 2 to play, |
20:53.16 | eyalroz | following the instructions here: https://gaming.stackexchange.com/a/356390/50983 |
20:53.42 | gnarface | hmm, i should test that... it was just working a couple days ago, but i followed my own instructions... |
20:53.57 | gnarface | oh you have amdgpu? my setup might only be relevant to nvidia |
20:54.14 | eyalroz | no, I don't |
20:54.27 | gnarface | agdu wasn't a typo of amdgpu? |
20:54.31 | gnarface | hmmm |
20:55.15 | eyalroz | alias agu='apt-get update; apt-get -o Acquire::Check-Valid-Until=false -y upgrade' |
20:55.16 | eyalroz | alias agdu='apt-get update; apt-get -o Acquire::Check-Valid-Until=false dist-upgrade' |

22:43.29 | gnarface | ymmv (i'm using nvidia) |
22:49.37 | eyalroz | gnarface: Which card are you using? |
22:50.10 | eyalroz | also - have you tried it with a virtual machine instead? |
22:54.00 | *** join/#devuan rafalcpp_ (~racalcppp@84-10-11-234.static.chello.pl) |
22:58.15 | gnarface | eyalroz: i have not, and the card is sufficiently ancient that i'm impressed with vulkan->d3d translation tech |
22:58.50 | gnarface | (GeForce GTX 650 Ti Boost) |
22:58.56 | eyalroz | Ah. I have a recent GTX 1050 Ti, so maybe it'll work better for me. But... I was disheartened by the i386 dependency troubles. |
22:58.56 | gnarface | a 2GB card |
22:59.24 | gnarface | if you had multi-arch enabled right, then it must be some distro/repo mixing version conflicts, that's all i can suspect |
22:59.52 | gnarface | well |
23:00.20 | eyalroz | I'd probably better not waste time playing it right now anyway, so maybe it's for the best... |
23:00.36 | gnarface | or the one other thing is you just don't have any of the dependencies already installed, and they're not in the winehq repo to get. in that case, what worked for me is to install the wine-development package from the devuan repos then REMOVE it but leave all it's dependencies (they're mostly the same as for winehq-staging) |
23:00.44 | eyalroz | btw - do you know when is the beowulf release due? |
23:00.55 | gnarface | i do not. i don't think there's any official due date yet |
23:01.58 | eyalroz | Isn't that strange, considering Buster has been out for 2 months already? |

23:05.03 | eyalroz | Oh, it looks like DebConf20 is supposed to be held in my hometown. |
23:05.05 | eyalroz | This is bad. |
23:05.23 | fsmithred | jessie was two years late |
23:05.30 | fsmithred | ascii was a year late |
23:05.50 | fsmithred | beowulf is likely to be about six months late (maybe by end of year) |
23:06.05 | fsmithred | unofficial projections ^^^ |
23:06.23 | Simeon2 | why is that bad eyalroz |
23:06.37 | Simeon2 | beowulf 'release' is kind of symbolic, isn't it (it just works here) |
23:07.06 | eyalroz | Simeon2: Because it violates the Palestinian academic and cultural boycott of Israeli institutions, and now, |
23:07.44 | eyalroz | I have to try and protest, and get the Debian bodies to change venue, while undermining some people whom I know and am on somewhat friendly terms with. |
23:08.28 | fsmithred | yuk |
23:08.32 | eyalroz | Simeon2: About the beowulf release - peopel who try Devuan will look at the release version. If it's based on Debian 9, then it's ancient package versions. Debian 10 - tolerably old... |

23:24.40 | golinux | Or post on #debianfork |

23:31.04 | Simeon2 | should i add experimental to sources.list? or sed -e 's/beowulf/ceres/g' it? |
23:31.41 | Simeon2 | i usually ran with 'sid' |
23:36.15 | golinux | Only if you want to test new Devuan packages. I have used it once or twice |
23:36.46 | g4570n | Simeon2: add ceres repos togheter with ASCII o Beowulf, and then: apt update && apt install libsqlite3-0 -t ceres |
23:37.14 | Simeon2 | oh i didn't know -t thanks |
23:37.17 | golinux | I recommend to NOT mix releases |
