golinuxCan someone please check if the magnet link on the website provides the complete list ascii installation media?01:49
golinuxIt's on the index page of devuan.org01:49
golinuxI've been reading about magnet links but not quite sure what to do with it.01:52
fsmithredopen it with transmission01:53
fsmithredwell, I can't see the individual files in transmission, and in qbittorrent I see all the files listed, but only their size, not their names.01:58
g4570ngolinux: I get the file list empty01:59
golinuxHmmm . . .02:00
golinuxfsnithred:  I tried transmission but wab't quite sure what is was doind.  Didn't look like anything actually.02:01
golinuxOy typos.02:01
golinuxfsmithred: ^^^02:01
golinuxShould I leave it there or should I remove it or does it need to be redone.?02:02
golinuxIf option 3 . . . can someone please create the appropriate magnet link?02:04
fsmithredlooks like it's got all the 2.0 isos and images02:20
fsmithreddownloading now, and it made the directories and files02:20
fsmithreddid plasma make a new torrent for 2.1?02:21
golinuxNo.  He never said he would.  Just for arm images02:21
golinuxDoes the magnet have 2.1 also?02:22
fsmithrednope02:22
golinuxHmmmm . . . the torrent does.  rrq put it together.02:23
golinuxSo we'll probably need a new magnet link02:23
fsmithredthe torrent should be redone, too. It still includes the old isos.02:25
fsmithredso...02:26
fsmithredthat would make it 42GB instead of 2102:26
golinuxIt should include them IMO02:28
fsmithredwhy?02:29
golinuxAnd the arm images from 2.0.002:29
fsmithredthey should be removed02:29
golinuxSomething for next week's meet.02:29
fsmithredI suggested we keep them for a short time until we were sure the 2.1 isos were good02:29
agrisIs it possible to have /var and / on separate mountpoints with the Devuan initramfs solution?03:51
kilobyteno reason it shouldn't, unless it's significantly changed from Debian03:56
kilobyteinitramfs -> you can have any splits you wish; mount restrictions apply only to non-initramfs03:56
agrisSo I got the full zfs8 zroot working in beowulf04:08
agrisinstalling xfce now via tasksel04:08
agrisi'm asking because apparently due to cancerd /var and /usr can't be on separate mountpoints (ZFS datasets)04:13
agriswasn't sure if this effected Devuan though04:13
kilobytethat's not just systemd, even for sane inits possible chains of tools were so nasty they were unmanageable04:23
kilobyteeg. some companies systems off samba mounts that require authentication via a remote database of some kind04:24
kilobyteevery single involved program and library would need to be in /bin /lib04:24
kilobyteso maintainers of random packages would have to move their packages just because something unrelated gained a feature that uses some library04:25
agrisIs that still an issue?04:26
kilobyte(not to be confused with "usrmerge" which is brain damage not related to requiring /usr on same filesystem if there's no initramfs)04:26
agrishttps://pad.dyne.org/code/#/1/edit/YakleTpFfQ9KHXt+ggqgSQ/BJYL0QHRoy9LmLEObTTKmzAH/ in here04:27
kilobyteyes, but it applies only if you don't use an initramfs04:27
agrisunder init-awareness04:27
agrisare you guys talking about modifying dpkg to read an LSB04:27
agrisand not indiscriminately place files in /etc/init.d ?04:28
agrisis that the plan or is that idea not set in stone04:28
agrisactually, Can I contribute to this? I don't need any special permissions do it?04:28
fsmithredthat pad is old. Has anyone edited it recently?04:30
fsmithredother than right this second04:30
agrisshould I be editing something else?04:53
fsmithredmaybe post something on the pad for the next meeting05:01
fsmithredthe link will be provided here and on devuan-dev mailing list a couple days from now05:01
fsmithredor post a question to the mailing list05:02
fsmithredbut the stuff you read on that pad is more than a year old05:02
fsmithredtime for sleep. see you later.05:03
agrisdone05:04
golinuxagris: Regarding the post-ascii bikeshed pad . . . It is easy to write and discuss amd plan.  It is not so easy to realize those ideas.06:00
golinuxWell summarized in this post: https://lists.dyne.org/lurker/message/20190607.092048.f69837e4.en.html06:05
golinuxA draft of the "official" ASCII 2.1 release is here: https://pad.dyne.org/code/#/2/code/edit/D+ChmluW+TT9QPdOVO9q0rpf/22:49
golinuxPlease do a final review.  Comments go beneath the =============22:50
