Centurion_Dan | palinuro: I'll check it out | 02:40 |
---|---|---|
Centurion_Dan | thanks. | 02:41 |
fsmithred | palinuro, where can I get the parrot repo key? | 03:08 |
fsmithred | I think I found it | 03:11 |
onefang | After some discussions with Evilham, I've been working on a new, easier to use, mirror checking script. | 07:57 |
onefang | https://sledjhamr.org/cgit/mirror-checker-lua/about/ though it's still a WIP, it doesn't actually produce emails or web pages yet. At least you get logs though. | 07:57 |
palinuro | onefang what about https://github.com/etix/mirrorbits | 09:02 |
onefang | That looks more like CDN software that happens to have it's own monitoring. | 09:04 |
onefang | I don't think we are planning that drastic a change to how we provide mirrors. | 09:05 |
onefang | http://deb.devuan.org/mirror_status.html is what we currently produce, and a similar email that is sent weekly to mirror admins. | 09:10 |
onefang | Well, vaguely similar, they are produced by different scripts, written by different people, in different languages. Among other things, I'm combining the two. | 09:13 |
Evilham | palinuro: mirror bits is cool and if you wanted to help set it up and maintain it for files.devuan.org, that can probably be talked about | 10:02 |
Evilham | But it won't work for debs | 10:03 |
onefang | I am planning on adding support for files.devuan.org to my checker script. | 10:05 |
onefang | But as Evilham said, this checker script is currently testing the deb mirror servers, not the files ones. | 10:37 |
Evilham | The nice thing about mirrorbits is that it'd distribute traffic between the mirrors, for files.d.o it's nice to have | 10:45 |
Evilham | For deb.d.o it would be , but it can't be used because of how it works | 10:45 |
LeePen | Hi all. | 11:03 |
LeePen | There have been no problems reported with slim-1.3.6-5.1+devuan4 in ceres. Can we move it to beowulf? | 11:04 |
Centurion_Dan | LeePen: yup | 12:55 |
LeePen | Centurion_Dan: Thanks very much. | 13:07 |
jaromil | grub2 fixed for UEFI here https://git.devuan.org/palinuro/grub2/tree/debian/2.02+dfsg1-19devuan1 | 13:21 |
* jaromil struggling with a stranded server because of this bug | 13:22 | |
jaromil | palinuro is here | 13:23 |
fsmithred | jaromil, can you access the server to chroot it? | 13:25 |
jaromil | don't know? | 13:26 |
fsmithred | do you have physical access? | 13:26 |
jaromil | i have no idea which server you mean? | 13:28 |
fsmithred | the one you're struggling with | 13:28 |
jaromil | the one i have problem | 13:28 |
fsmithred | because of the grub2 problem | 13:28 |
jaromil | oh yes sure a colleague is dealing with it | 13:28 |
fsmithred | oh, ok | 13:28 |
jaromil | we need a workaround for now | 13:29 |
fsmithred | if we're talking about the uefi bug, there's an easy workaround | 13:29 |
jaromil | or boot by hand | 13:29 |
fsmithred | grub-install --bootloader-id=debian | 13:29 |
jaromil | let me know i'll tell alv | 13:29 |
jaromil | he'll try now thanks | 13:29 |
Centurion_Dan | I'll have to rebuild the patch against a base from debians git repo | 13:29 |
fsmithred | I know it may be painful to do that. Give alv my apologies. | 13:29 |
jaromil | Centurion_Dan: why don't we ask palinuro to do that? | 13:30 |
jaromil | fsmithred: it worked!!! thanks!!! | 13:31 |
fsmithred | yw | 13:31 |
jaromil | <3 | 13:31 |
fsmithred | been there, done that | 13:31 |
Centurion_Dan | jaromil: Can do, but that will take time too. | 13:31 |
jaromil | Centurion_Dan: I recommend we distribute responsibility and let maintainers engage with the correct flow | 13:32 |
jaromil | time is a secondary issue | 13:32 |
jaromil | imho | 13:32 |
Centurion_Dan | Sure, but that takes time and coordination, and the implication I got is that this is an urgent bug. | 13:33 |
fsmithred | what package pulls in grub-efi-amd64-signed? | 13:36 |
Centurion_Dan | palinuro: Hi, can I engage you in fixing the grub bug and learning about our processes? | 13:38 |
Centurion_Dan | fsmithred: so this uefi issue is related to the signed shim? | 13:41 |
palinuro | centurion_dan yes i would like to follow the package over time, but i don't know what is your way to do such things | 13:43 |
jaromil | for now would be just to start from a git history preserved from the fork (from alioth) | 13:44 |
fsmithred | from salsa? | 13:44 |
jaromil | the bug is not urgent, since beowulf is not stable yet | 13:44 |
jaromil | oh, salsa | 13:44 |
fsmithred | it will need to be fixed for the next mini.iso | 13:44 |
jaromil | yes indeed | 13:45 |
jaromil | when we did mini.iso last? I have no vision on this, its obscure to the point we were almost planning to start rolling our own builds at dyne | 13:45 |
Centurion_Dan | palinuro: Great. For a start whenever we can we try to be based directly of Debians git source. The easiest way to find it is to use https://tracker.debian.org and enter the package name. | 13:45 |
fsmithred | I think it was February | 13:46 |
jaromil | the debian-installer is waiting for a spin, mentioned in the past 2 or 3 weekly meetings | 13:46 |
jaromil | lets do it if we include this fix | 13:46 |
Centurion_Dan | It's spinned, for unstable today, and ascii about a week ago. | 13:48 |
palinuro | centurion_dan i can rebase the whole patches thing on top of a clean grub2 source taken from salsa | 13:48 |
jaromil | great! thanks Centurion_Dan | 13:48 |
palinuro | i'm not new to dep14 git packaging, so i should be able to provide clean tags there | 13:48 |
Centurion_Dan | palinuro: that would be great. :-) | 13:48 |
jaromil | pfect | 13:48 |
Centurion_Dan | jaromil: I even got the arm archs building again today ;-) | 13:49 |
palinuro | jaromil i haven't played with d-i yet since the linux cross-compilation is so slow that i'm still waiting the latest 4.19.0-5 to finish its build | 13:49 |
Centurion_Dan | jaromil: to be honest I'm a bit surprised at the lack of arm64 hardware is supported by d-i | 13:51 |
Centurion_Dan | jaromil: is their a particular suite of d-i you were interested in?? | 13:52 |
palinuro | my plan to rebuild the whole d-i from scratch is still valid lol | 14:01 |
palinuro | s/rebuild/rewrite/ | 14:01 |
Centurion_Dan | palinuro: yeah it's a bit of a mess. | 14:01 |
jaromil | arm archs are building thanks to our computer here in the office actually, that's what parazyd setup the other day | 14:02 |
jaromil | i'd love to hear back from ungleich since they have the same soft-iron | 14:02 |
Centurion_Dan | But I'd settle for a fix to the makefile so it will be smart enough to figure out the kernel-abi from the packages available. | 14:02 |
jaromil | the main suites interesting are ascii and beowulf | 14:03 |
Centurion_Dan | jaromil: you have a SoftIron :-o | 14:03 |
Centurion_Dan | jaromil: yes, I very much appreciate parazyd fixing that. I even got remote access to the new arm builder :-p | 14:04 |
jaromil | Centurion_Dan: was the first piece of equipment bought with decode | 14:05 |
Centurion_Dan | just didn't realise it was a SoftIron :-D | 14:05 |
jaromil | its a small softiron | 14:05 |
jaromil | great machines | 14:05 |
Centurion_Dan | I will abuse it with much package building :-) | 14:05 |
jaromil | its very hot in here best to keep it to the minimum indespensable | 14:07 |
jaromil | would love to have ungleich on board with that too | 14:07 |
jaromil | they have two soft-irons | 14:07 |
jaromil | keep an eye on the termal sensors | 14:08 |
Centurion_Dan | ok. | 14:08 |
fsmithred | put it in the refrigerator in a plastic bag. | 14:09 |
Centurion_Dan | jaromil: I'm trying to get debian-installer to produce an image suitable for my espressobins (marvell 7320) | 14:10 |
onefang | WiFi doesn't work so well in a 'fridge. | 14:11 |
fsmithred | good point. Also, how big is it? | 14:13 |
fsmithred | I'm finding pictures of data centers, not little boxes sitting on chairs | 14:13 |
jaromil | bbl | 14:19 |
onefang | Yes, I'm up early enough to attend a meeting, the day before the meeting. It's purely by accident, and it's likely it'll be the same tomorrow, if I'm up at this time it'll be by accident. Though I want to attend this week. | 22:24 |
onefang | I blame a faulty smoke detector. | 22:24 |
Centurion_Dan | onefang: I hate it when that happens... but better a fail loudly then a silent demise... | 22:46 |
onefang | It seems to be cold related, so tends to go off between 4 and 7 AM. | 22:48 |
