| 01:07.53 | systemdlete | So, fsmithred: After hours of tinkering and learning s**t I never realized before, I figured out that renaming the S0 scripts in /etc/rc2.d did not change the ordering of the scripts. I had to add haveged to the depends list in the LSB of the dovecot script. Now everything works as expected; no hang anymore. But what about those S* and K* scripts -- do those still apply? I looked at the support scripts for init, but I am |
| 01:07.54 | systemdlete | still not clear on this. |
| 01:08.35 | systemdlete | Also, one must re-enable the service so that the /etc/init/.depend.* files get updated. Otherwise, the dependency/ordering does not change |
| 01:10.13 | fsmithred | systemdlete, you now know a lot more about it than I do |
| 01:10.28 | systemdlete | all of this is, of course, in addition to those changes I had to make to haveged to make THAT work |
| 01:10.35 | systemdlete | :P |
| 01:10.46 | systemdlete | that doesn't make me feel any better |
| 01:11.31 | fsmithred | what do you do to re-enable the service? |
| 01:11.49 | ullet | i thought the numbering of the scripts determined order :" |
| 01:11.53 | systemdlete | service <svcname> disable/enable |
| 01:11.55 | fsmithred | so did I |

| 01:12.17 | systemdlete | maybe they still do, if insserv is not installed |

| 01:17.22 | onefang | If I recall correctly, according to the LSB standard, init is supposed to order the startups based on the dependencies stated in the startup scripts. |

| 01:18.21 | onefang | I wrote an LSB compliant init many many years ago. lol |
| 01:18.41 | systemdlete | onefang: Yes, for LSB-based systems. But not necessarily for others like s6 and systemd and many others. |

| 01:28.23 | systemdlete | no, not that either |
| 01:29.30 | gnarface | systemdlete: uh, yes to insserv and startpar, but no to beowulf. actually only tested symlink overrides on ascii and ceres. also, i recall some package upgrade rewriting them all, so double check they're how you left them |
| 01:32.03 | rrq | I can't find a documentation path down from the functional level ("man init") down to administration level ("man update-rc.d") .. but debian seems keen on removing all man pages anyhow :( |

| 01:36.32 | systemdlete | gnarface: You say you have insserv and startpar on your ascii install, but you are able to change ordering with the file names in /etc/rc?.d/* |
| 01:37.03 | systemdlete | I was unable to. I could ONLY do it by adding the dep explicitly in the LSB block of dovecot. |
| 01:37.16 | systemdlete | and then disabling and re-enabling the service. |
| 01:38.01 | systemdlete | Of course, I have not really tinkered much with the service deps on ascii, so maybe that works differently. If it does, we might add those to the release notes for beowulf. |

| 01:40.07 | gnarface | ? |
| 01:40.21 | systemdlete | Uh... I think so... ?? |
| 01:40.34 | systemdlete | as opposed to? |
| 01:40.39 | gnarface | i dunno openrc |
| 01:41.19 | gnarface | also, i think i only tested it for disabling scripts (changing the S to K) |
| 01:41.21 | systemdlete | sysv-rc |
| 01:42.32 | gnarface | upgrading openssh-server i think was the culprit for redrawing them all to match the LSB headers again |
| 01:42.46 | gnarface | other packages might do the same though |
| 01:43.31 | systemdlete | These scripts have to work for any init system. Otherwise, someone will crow when they can't automate startup and shutdown of their favorite daemons and services. Only fair enough I think. |
| 01:46.51 | systemdlete | fsmithred, others: Another problem is that some of the scripts don't issue messages upon startup and shutdown. I had to add my own (log_daemon_msg) so that I could debug these issues. |
| 01:47.10 | systemdlete | It would also be nice if these got logged to a file in /var/log |
| 01:47.42 | systemdlete | I mean, we have dmesg for the kernel. Seems like we could have something like that for any given init system, a general facility. |
| 01:50.44 | rrq | bootlogd ? |
| 01:51.30 | systemdlete | ah. ty |
| 01:51.59 | systemdlete | but that will only log messages from log_daemon_msg, right? |
| 01:53.05 | rrq | "Bootlogd works by redirecting the console output from the console device." |
| 01:53.28 | systemdlete | huh. So what happens to the console messages? Do they disappear? |

| 01:54.02 | rrq | https://manpages.debian.org/jessie/bootlogd/bootlogd.8.en.html |
| 01:54.05 | systemdlete | to me, "redirected" and "copied" are not quite identical |
| 01:54.15 | systemdlete | (yeah, looking at that man page too) |
| 01:54.36 | systemdlete | their bad, not yours |
| 02:01.51 | rrq | wow I found "testing" has "readbootlog - show contents of the boot log, stripping away control characters" ... maybe it's on the verge of becoming a binary log file |
| 02:03.18 | systemdlete | I think that just refers to the tputs output (colors) |
| 02:03.35 | systemdlete | No, I am looking at /var/log/boot and it is a simple ascii file |
| 02:03.39 | rrq | ah, yes, those are important in a log file |
| 02:04.05 | systemdlete | agreed... but then the facility would have to be far smarter to log just the plain ascii chars |
| 02:04.43 | systemdlete | which it could do, but that would add more overhead and that would not work well for embedded linux apps like routers and stuff where they try hard to keep the footprint tiny |
| 02:05.57 | systemdlete | I think what I'd rather see is for the /lib/lsb functions to NOT insert that stuff in the output. plain monochrome output is sufficient for most things in the boot I think. Is there a reason color is really needed, other than to look cool? |
| 02:06.10 | systemdlete | but this is getting a little OT maybe |
| 02:06.27 | systemdlete | I hear you, rrq. I don't disagree really |

| 02:17.18 | fsmithred | that would be with debian, too. We don't touch dovecot. |

| 02:17.35 | fsmithred | btw, live-config scripts do exactly the kind of reporting you want. |

| 02:22.17 | systemdlete | Also, will debian care? It doesn't support or deter from systemd |
| 02:23.07 | fsmithred | they're allowed to support other init systems if they want to |
| 02:23.24 | fsmithred | ymmv |

| 02:24.15 | systemdlete | bangs head against hard surface |
| 02:24.54 | systemdlete | this is why I thought, maybe it would be better to bring these problems to the direct attention of those projects |
| 02:25.15 | gnarface | systemdlete: right idea, wrong person's head |
| 02:25.25 | fsmithred | lol |
| 02:25.36 | systemdlete | volunteers? |
| 02:26.02 | fsmithred | debian has accepted patches from devuan, so there's always the possibility that you'll get a positive response |
| 02:26.18 | systemdlete | Am I submitting a patch? |
| 02:26.47 | fsmithred | telling them what you did to get it to work is almost as good |
| 02:27.02 | systemdlete | so, I give them the secret recipe. |
| 02:27.13 | systemdlete | "insert word at line x in file y" |
| 02:27.27 | systemdlete | OK, whatever. |
| 02:27.35 | fsmithred | and if they can do that without breaking anything, it might actually get done |
| 02:28.27 | systemdlete | So live-config is another boot system? |
| 02:28.36 | systemdlete | Or another layer on top of existing? |
| 02:28.52 | fsmithred | live-boot and live-config are used in live-CD |
| 02:29.03 | fsmithred | scripts to start the system |
| 02:29.18 | systemdlete | Isn't that the same thing? |
| 02:29.39 | systemdlete | I'm reading http://manpages.ubuntu.com/manpages/precise/man7/live-config.7.html |
| 02:29.39 | fsmithred | for a special purpose |

| 02:33.57 | fsmithred | I guess a layer on top is best description |

| 02:46.46 | systemdlete | It seems like another boot system to me, just providing more options (linux boot cmd line most notably) |
| 02:48.10 | fsmithred | no, the live config scripts will start the normal init scripts |
| 02:48.24 | systemdlete | oh |
| 02:48.29 | fsmithred | you can choose which ones run or not in the boot command |

| 03:18.30 | bleb | hey friends |
| 03:18.45 | bleb | is there a guide to enabling wpa_supplicant in devuan? |
| 03:18.57 | bleb | i have the default xfce install with wicd now but i want to switch |
| 03:30.02 | bleb | by the way where should i look for documentation of how to use sysvinit? |
| 03:31.16 | mason | bleb: I'm a fan of ifupdown, or nmcli if you want something that does more for you. |
| 03:31.55 | bleb | nmcli is network manager isn't it |
| 03:32.12 | mason | Yes. |
| 03:32.23 | bleb | and ifupdown is its own thing? |
| 03:32.27 | bleb | or does it use wpa_supplicant? |
| 03:32.37 | mason | Yes. It's the tradition Debian network management - /etc/network/interfaces |
| 03:32.43 | mason | Both use that. |
| 03:33.08 | bleb | how do i configure ifupdown? |
| 03:33.22 | bleb | first i will have to disable wicd obviously |
| 03:33.40 | mason | https://wiki.debian.org/NetworkConfiguration talks about it - example at the bottom |
| 03:34.27 | mason | There's also https://wiki.debian.org/WiFi/HowToUse |
| 03:35.30 | bleb | to disable wicd i guess i would do: mv /etc/rc3.d/S04wicd /etc/rc3.d/K04wicd && update-rc.d |
| 03:35.49 | bleb | at least thats what /etc/rc3.d/README seems to instruct |
| 03:35.55 | mason | update-rc.d is a better too to use - it'll handle the links for you |
| 03:37.48 | bleb | if i set things up with ifupdown, will i be able to configure wpa_supplicant with wpa_cli? |
| 03:38.33 | bleb | also, that debian page says to do sudo systemctl reenable wpa_supplicant.service |
| 03:38.49 | bleb | obviously there must be a devuan equivalent but i see no wpa_supplicant service in /etc/init.d |

I did put vmlinuz/initrd.img on /boot of sda2, then I run frrom slackware lilo with proper lilo.conf and it just runs. Now debian is up, lilo is really best. old stuffs are good. |
| 10:39.33 | openbsdtai123 | lilo works very well. Quite better management of mbr actually. |

| 20:09.42 | Guest81544 | How can I install userpatches to the Linux kernel on Ascii without stepping on the package manager's toes? |
| 20:11.27 | gnarface | Guest81544: get the kernel source package, patch it, rebuild it using either the native tools inside it or the kernel-package tool set. after that it's just a question of following the package naming guidelines |
| 20:13.18 | Guest81544 | do i need to rebuild a new package every time Devuan releases a new kernel that way? |
| 20:13.57 | Guest81544 | I was hoping for a way to simply add-on the .patch file in addition to Devuan's patches when updates occur like with Portage's /etc/patches/ directory |
| 20:14.47 | gnarface | no, the kernels aren't rebuilt on the fly. only binaries are installed. if you want to automate that you have to rig it up yourself. if this is an important patch maybe submit it to upstream and they'll include it in their build automation though |
| 20:15.18 | gnarface | this is different from BSD where patches are distributed as patches |
| 20:15.33 | gnarface | everything is a pre-built binary package that is built before being put into the repo |
| 20:15.59 | gnarface | but... there are source packages in the repo too for everything, so actually automating this yourself wouldn't be a huge feat of shell scripting |
| 20:17.33 | gnarface | oh, but if you name your kernel package correctly, it will neither block new kernels from being installed nor be removed by them |
| 20:17.48 | gnarface | so that's probably what you want to focus on first |
| 20:18.22 | gnarface | just making some clean packages that aren't in anything's way |
| 20:18.52 | gnarface | you'll most likely want to build actually two packages, a linux-image-[arch] package and a linux-headers-[arch] package |
| 20:19.18 | gnarface | i'm certain debian has some documentation in various states of disrepair |
| 20:19.25 | gnarface | lemme see what i can find |
| 20:20.58 | gnarface | gah, everything is too old |
| 20:21.45 | gnarface | also alot of their stuff focuses on packaging a vanilla kernel for debian, which i'm assuming is actually NOT what you want, right? i'm assuming you want to just add a patch to the existing patches on a distro native kernel, right? |

| 20:23.46 | Guest81544 | gnarface, no, I want the Devuan kernel, I just watch to apply MuQSS patches to it |
| 20:23.52 | Guest81544 | *want |
| 20:24.19 | Guest81544 | or correct rather |
| 20:25.11 | gnarface | Guest81544: yea that shouldn't be too hard on it's own. asking for seamless automation might be a tall order, but just adding a patch and rebuilding is only hard the first time |
| 20:25.38 | Guest81544 | I guess |
| 20:26.01 | Guest81544 | I'd probably have to make my own online repo and add it to existing machines if I wanted to manage this across lots of devuans |
| 20:27.30 | gnarface | uh... well, yea but if you're managing lots of machines you're inevitably gonna need a private repo for a few custom packages, not just this one |
| 20:28.14 | gnarface | like i said, if it's something important it might be worth trying to get the patch accepted upstream (at Debian, i mean. Devuan just uses all Debian kernels for x86) |
| 20:29.50 | *** join/#devuan phyre (~phyre___@78.30.23.107) |
| 20:31.25 | gnarface | i mean, you don't really want all your public-facing production servers rocking a compiler so they can all re-build the same kernel in parallel every time it's trivially updated, right? |
| 20:31.40 | gnarface | that's just a waste of electricity |
| 20:34.37 | gnarface | Guest81544: do you want me to help you walk through the build process? |
| 20:37.04 | Guest81544 | just linking me to some documentation on the matter would be better |
| 20:37.14 | *** join/#devuan ullet (~ullet@165.231.178.25) |
| 20:37.18 | gnarface | well, i thought so but there's a problem with that |
| 20:37.35 | gnarface | <PROTECTED> |
| 20:37.39 | gnarface | because here's the documentation |
| 20:38.00 | gnarface | and now that i'm looking at it, i realize it's missing important steps for a kernel build |
| 20:38.07 | ullet | has anyone made a devuan image for the Khadas VIM3? :) |
| 20:38.19 | gnarface | ... and the stuff that does specifically mention the kernel build is hopelessly out of date |
| 20:38.54 | gnarface | so i realize i've pulled divergent info together to make it work for me, and it really might be easier if i just walk you through it |
| 20:38.59 | gnarface | but suit yourself |
| 20:39.38 | ullet | they should make it a wiki maybe |
| 20:39.55 | gnarface | the best advice i can give you is that while the built-in build scripts are helpful when they work right, make-kpkg is, despite many sources to the contrary, NOT deprecated, and Debian has no say in that |
| 20:40.21 | gnarface | so i would say, follow the NMG for patching but use make-kpkg for building still |
| 20:40.46 | gnarface | i can't find a single piece of documentation that melds those two halves of the approach together |
| 20:44.08 | gnarface | (where i ran into the problem that needed make-kpkg still was in adding the linux-vservers patch to the kernel, at which point i discovered that the built-in build scripts didn't fully support the entire range of valid Debian kernel package names, and were therefore allergic to the patches, but make-kpkg still came through for me) |
| 20:44.37 | gnarface | (that was a couple releases ago now though so YMMV) |

| 21:12.34 | Guest81544 | gnarface, I'll accept your offer to guide |
| 21:12.56 | Guest81544 | but I also want to ask, has anyone ported a gtk2 version of thunar yet to beowulf? |
| 21:13.15 | Guest81544 | the gtk3 version is very difficult to use and the searing white is hurting my eyes |
| 21:13.27 | Guest81544 | it's also slower |
| 21:13.59 | gnarface | Guest81544: you're using amd64, right? |
| 21:14.41 | ullet | i have dark thunar |
| 21:14.52 | ullet | 1.8.9 |
| 21:15.00 | gnarface | Guest81544: if so, and assuming your sources.list is correct, start with "apt-get update && apt-get build-essential && apt-get build-dep linux-image-amd64" |
| 21:15.03 | Guest81544 | yes amd64 |
| 21:15.27 | gnarface | Guest81544: lemme know when you've made it that far |
| 21:18.11 | gnarface | Guest81544: that middle command might actually be "apt-get install build-essential" but it should be obvious |
| 21:18.34 | gnarface | Guest81544: yea, sorry that's actually "apt-get install build-essential" |
| 21:18.46 | gnarface | there will probably be a lot of packages if you haven't done this before |
| 21:19.22 | gnarface | and you'll need all this stuff regardless of whose build instructions you follow next |
| 21:22.53 | Guest81544 | ok |
| 21:25.13 | gnarface | after that it should be "apt-get source linux-image-amd64" but you might have to name a specific kernel package instead like linux-image-5.6.0-1-amd64 |
| 21:25.31 | gnarface | from there it should unpack the kernel in a subdirectory and apply a bunch of patches |
| 21:27.54 | gnarface | after that, *only* follow the dquilt patch application stuff from this page, ignoring all the stuff about updating the source from an upstream tarball: https://www.debian.org/doc/manuals/maint-guide/update.en.html |
| 21:28.01 | gnarface | then let me know when you've got that far |
| 21:28.44 | gnarface | at that point you should have your own patch added to the stack of existing packages |
| 21:29.21 | gnarface | and you should be ready to build it, and multiple approaches MAY work, (including the ones on that page) but as i've mentioned before, i've had best luck with make-kpkg, not documented here |

| 21:46.48 | Guest81544 | it's right |
| 21:48.46 | Guest81544 | gnarface, please hold on a second. I'm not familiar with dquilt. I thought this was just going to be as simple as patch 0001-muqss.patch |
| 21:54.38 | gnarface | Guest81544: yea, unfortunately you gotta add the patch in with the others with dquilt and use dch to add a changelog entry to correspond to it |
| 22:02.25 | Guest81544 | where do i place the patch |
| 22:02.50 | Guest81544 | do i copy it in somewhere or do i cd into the directory and then do dquilt add ../../0001.muqss.patch? |
| 22:08.37 | gnarface | Guest81544: there should be a ./debian/patches/ directory in the source root, no? |
| 22:09.19 | gnarface | Guest81544: it might depend on how you use the dquilt commands |
| 22:09.25 | Guest81544 | no |
| 22:09.30 | Guest81544 | there is no patches folder |
| 22:09.36 | gnarface | there's a ./debian folder, right? |

| 22:15.55 | gnarface | Guest81544: is there a ./debian folder in there? if not, something is really wrong. if there is though, just try adding a patches subdirectory |
| 22:16.52 | Guest81544 | ok |
| 22:16.59 | Guest81544 | there is debian |
| 22:17.02 | Guest81544 | but not debian/patches |
| 22:18.41 | gnarface | Guest81544: ok, try this from the source root: dquilt import ../0001.muqss.patch |
| 22:18.49 | Guest81544 | also |
| 22:18.55 | Guest81544 | there is no dquilt command |

| 22:19.12 | gnarface | hah oh yea |
| 22:19.45 | Guest81544 | yeah import works |
| 22:19.45 | gnarface | i actually remember running into a bug once where i had to alias quilt to dquilt to make it work. just try running it as quilt though. this documentation is as old as the hills |
| 22:20.33 | gnarface | Guest81544: oh, if quilt import worked, then i think it's: quilt push; quilt refresh; quilt header -e |
| 22:20.36 | gnarface | ? maybe |
| 22:21.01 | gnarface | or no, probably quilt push; quilt refresh; dch |
| 22:21.29 | gnarface | or if there's a stack of patches: while dquilt push; do dquilt refresh; done; dch |
| 22:21.45 | gnarface | (from the grey box halfway down the page here: https://www.debian.org/doc/manuals/maint-guide/update.en.html) |
| 22:22.25 | gnarface | dch is picky as fuck about the changelog entry format. you have to be very detail oriented |
