| LeePen | gnu_srs1: I have been investigating bugs.d.o including submitters in replies to NNN@bdo. | 11:03 |
|---|---|---|
| LeePen | It actually doesn't work as I thought. You need to explicitly include the submitter (either | 11:04 |
| LeePen | real address of NNN-submitter@bdo) in the To or CC. | 11:04 |
| LeePen | It is documented at https://bugs.devuan.org/Developer.html in Followup Messages. | 11:05 |
| LeePen | Same behaviour in Debian BTS. | 11:05 |
| LeePen | Suprised me too! | 11:05 |
| LeePen | HTH | 11:05 |
| gnu_srs1 | Ok, that explains why I did not get any replies when commenting on the bugs. | 11:06 |
| LeePen | There are several Debian bugs about it; it clearly catches lots of folk out. | 11:07 |
| LeePen | g4570n: I have just restored the ascii and jessie installer mini.isos and netboot. Could you verify the files you wanted/expect are there? | 12:23 |
| LeePen | Thanks | 12:23 |
| joshbowyer | ok | 19:45 |
| joshbowyer | now it works | 19:45 |
| joshbowyer | i want to get involved in the devuan project, im proficient in shell scripting and have been a linux admin for around 10 years. how can i help? | 19:46 |
| joshbowyer | also i submitted a bug report for a upower package, but when i tried to email the package maintainer (daniel) i got a bounceback, so is the package now unmaintained? | 19:46 |
| LeePen | joshbowyer: I think we have reverted to debian's package for upower in beowulf. | 19:52 |
| LeePen | Which bug? | 19:52 |
| joshbowyer | 394 | 20:05 |
| joshbowyer | https://bugs.devuan.org/cgi/bugreport.cgi?bug=394 | 20:05 |
| xrogaan | joshbowyer: you could adopt a package :P | 20:47 |
| fsmithred | If I have upower 1:0.9.23-2+devuan1.3 installed, should I downgrade to 0.99 that's in the repo? | 20:59 |
| joshbowyer | 0.99 is newer than 0.9.23, no? | 20:59 |
| joshbowyer | also 0.99 isnt available for x86/amd64, but only arm64, armhf etc | 21:00 |
| joshbowyer | kinda odd to me | 21:00 |
| fsmithred | 0.99.10-1 500 | 21:00 |
| fsmithred | 500 http://deb.devuan.org/merged beowulf/main amd64 Packages | 21:00 |
| fsmithred | 0.99 might be newer, but it has a lower version number than 1:0.9.23-2+devuan1.3 | 21:00 |
| fsmithred | because of the epoch | 21:00 |
| joshbowyer | well, would be worth a try | 21:02 |
| joshbowyer | since leepen told me beowulf reverted to debians upower package | 21:02 |
| fsmithred | and according to apt/history.log upower has never been installed or upgraded | 21:02 |
| joshbowyer | the only weird thing is, im not sure its upower itself | 21:03 |
| joshbowyer | since that is accurate when running upower -i | 21:03 |
| fsmithred | sorry, I just got here and didn't read what your problem is | 21:03 |
| joshbowyer | im just not sure if its gir1.2-upowerglibc-1.0, or its connector in upower | 21:03 |
| joshbowyer | my guess is the former since on boot it gets an accurate reading | 21:04 |
| joshbowyer | but then just doesnt update | 21:04 |
| joshbowyer | so ill probably have to look into cinnamon-settings-daemon older versions alongside the upower glib package | 21:04 |
| fsmithred | oh, I see it now. Battery status. | 21:04 |
| fsmithred | I think someone else mentioned this on the forum | 21:04 |
| joshbowyer | yeah i want to help fix it if i can since its a big deal for this to be broken | 21:07 |
| joshbowyer | no way of telling battery status (line or discharge), charge percentage, low power actions, etc | 21:07 |
| joshbowyer | and i want to contribute to devuan so this seems like a good first step | 21:07 |
| fsmithred | aha! I'm still running the ascii version. | 21:07 |
| joshbowyer | does it work for you? | 21:17 |
| joshbowyer | if you go to the bug report i filed, you can put the contents of the test script i made into a test.py and run it | 21:17 |
| joshbowyer | if its percentage match what you see using upower -i, then ascii doesnt have the problem | 21:17 |
| joshbowyer | wait | 21:32 |
| joshbowyer | ok | 21:37 |
| joshbowyer | that worked | 21:37 |
| joshbowyer | downgrading upower and gir1.2-upowerglib-1.0 fixes it | 21:37 |
| LeePen | Excellent! | 21:38 |
| joshbowyer | i ought to keep a list of things ive had to modify with beowulf, i feel stupid in retrospect for not doing so | 21:38 |
| joshbowyer | such as lid actions | 21:38 |
| xrogaan | joshbowyer: I don't know, if you do want to be a maintainer it wouldn't hurt to ask here though. | 21:42 |
| fsmithred | rrq, no keyboard in amd64 destkop iso install | 23:06 |
| fsmithred | uefi install on hardware from usb stick | 23:07 |
| fsmithred | joshbowyer, I don't have gir1.2-upowerglib-1.0. I only have upower and libupower-glib3 | 23:11 |
| joshbowyer | are you using cinnamon? | 23:11 |
| fsmithred | do you know what pulled in gir1.2-upowerglib-1.0? | 23:11 |
| fsmithred | no. xfce here | 23:11 |
| joshbowyer | thats why | 23:11 |
| fsmithred | and you upgraded from ascii? | 23:12 |
| joshbowyer | yup | 23:12 |
| joshbowyer | cinnamon requires the gir1.2 package | 23:12 |
| joshbowyer | since its cinnamon-settings-daemon does some checks using the library, using its python modules | 23:13 |
| joshbowyer | i dont know if libupower-glib3 is affected by the earlier issue | 23:13 |
| joshbowyer | although ive seen it mentioned on forums, just not sure about versioning | 23:14 |
| fsmithred | I got it automatically, possibly before I changed upower. | 23:15 |
| fsmithred | libupower-glib3 doesn't have a devuanized version | 23:17 |
| fsmithred | so it shouldn't be a problem on upgrade to beowulf | 23:18 |
| joshbowyer | gotcha | 23:18 |
| fsmithred | golinux, I emailed chillfan about the upower issue. | 23:19 |
| golinux | Thanks. | 23:19 |
