| nezos | hi, I have a problem upgrading polkitd, it fails to upgrade with: Failed to open 'polkit.conf', ignoring: No such file or directory | 07:34 |
|---|---|---|
| gnarface | nezos: which devuan release? | 07:35 |
| nezos | I am on unstable | 07:36 |
| gnarface | eh, walk it off | 07:36 |
| gnarface | sorry, that sounded insensitive | 07:37 |
| gnarface | what i mean is, it's par for course with unstable | 07:37 |
| nezos | I can't have to follow some program updates otherwise I won't be able to work with other people | 07:37 |
| nezos | I understand, probably I'll wait in case it gets fixed | 07:37 |
| gnarface | uh... usually (unless it's fucking Nvidia) they'll fix it within a day or two no their own. if you're relying on this system for actual work though, you're strongly advised to run the stable release | 07:38 |
| gnarface | *on their own | 07:38 |
| gnarface | is there some specific version of something you need for the job that's only in unstable so far? | 07:39 |
| gnarface | if you answer "yes" you should make sure you've checked for the same fix in daedalus-backports (usually the popular and important stuff from unstable will make it there) | 07:39 |
| gnarface | most people will do much better using stable with a couple packages from backports rather than using unstable | 07:40 |
| CueXXIII | nezos: https://bugs.devuan.org/cgi/bugreport.cgi?bug=840 | 07:41 |
| nezos | thanks CueXXIII | 07:42 |
| nezos | gnarface thanks for the advice | 07:43 |
| CueXXIII | (you could temporarily remove the x bit from systemd-sysusers for THIS bug, since you are already on broken :) | 07:43 |
| nezos | I didn't understand what you mean | 07:43 |
| nezos | remove x bit? | 07:43 |
| CueXXIII | man chmod | 07:43 |
| gnarface | nezos: he mans chmod to remove execute permissions | 07:44 |
| gnarface | *means | 07:44 |
| CueXXIII | gnarface: yeah, and i prefer people to know beforehand what they are doing in these cases :) | 07:47 |
| nezos | I didn't do it, cause I don't know what effect will have :) | 07:47 |
| CueXXIII | but yeah, that bug should be fixed in a reasonable time, i think | 07:48 |
| CueXXIII | would% | 07:48 |
