| mason | bgstack15: THanks! Just read the meeting notes. I assume golinux will show you what she showed me, but if I can be of use, ping me. | 01:48 |
|---|---|---|
| bgstack15 | ping -c 1 mason.devuan.dev | 01:49 |
| golinux | We have just about wrapped up the how-to. :) | 01:49 |
| mason | Cool cool. | 01:49 |
| mason | I wanted to attend the meeting but I got asked to help with three different issues, all of which involved my having to learn new subsystems to assist. On the plus side, I'm way more converant with cgroups now, and I've brushed up on reading packet captures. | 01:51 |
| mason | dbus can still stuff itself | 01:51 |
| bgstack15 | cgroups 1 or 2? | 01:52 |
| mason | 1 in this case | 01:53 |
| mason | Red Hat doesn't leap forward with new tech. Most of our customers cling to the old stuff as long as they can. | 01:54 |
| mason | (And in this case, not cgroups-as-managed-by-systemd, but cgroup-tools, which we also ship. | 01:57 |
| mason | ) | 01:57 |
| mason | (We-Devuan, not we-Red Hat in this case.) | 01:58 |
| bgstack15 | That's a lot of wes. Are we feeling royal? | 01:59 |
| mason | That's where the noblesse oblige comes from. | 01:59 |
| bgstack15 | Does anyone here know how to automate the downloading of source tarballs for use in building packages? I'm familiar with uscan which reads d/watch, but that feels so... manual. Is there a debuild or dpkg-SOMETHING that calls that for you? | 02:01 |
| mason | For new packages? Dunno. For existing packages, apt-get source will snag everything from your repository and build if you ask it to. | 02:02 |
| mason | bgstack15: As a cheat, look at where slackbuilds.org grabs source. They provide URIs and checksums. | 02:04 |
| mason | They often have patches that end up being useful as well. | 02:04 |
| mason | bbiab, bedtime stories | 02:05 |
| bgstack15 | Oh, I've never considered Slackware as an upstream. I have a few heroes from various other distros whose individual work I follow (mostly the unofficial sides of distros like AUR or the OpenSUSE OBS). | 02:09 |
| Unit193 | bgstack15: Howdy! Speaking of OBS, looks like you have a custom version of VeraCrypt that has been "Devuanized", curious what changes require that? Also in regards to downloading tarballs, there is `origtargz` which is 'get me the tarball for this version, I don't care how you do it' and it will use pristine-tar, uscan, or apt-get to do so. | 05:13 |
| LeePen | Published new packaging guide to master branch: https://git.devuan.org/devuan-doc/documentation/tree/master/maintainers | 10:47 |
| LeePen | Just switched a beowulf vm to runit-init to test init-system-helpers in beowulf-proposed-updates. | 13:23 |
| LeePen | Works well. | 13:23 |
| bpmedley | LeePen : Howdy, can I PM you so we can work together on the iso builds? | 20:49 |
| bgstack15 | Oh and to finally answer Unit193: I thought your name sounded familiar! There's actually nothing to devuanize. I was building it in a dpkg for myself so it's in the package manager. | 20:54 |
| LeePen | Of course. | 20:54 |
| LeePen | bpmedley: Of course | 20:55 |
| Unit193 | bgstack15: Ah, OK. Just going off the description of OBS. I finally had gotten around to trying that out not too long ago, https://build.opensuse.org/package/show/home%3Aunit193%3Averacrypt/veracrypt which of course builds off the same source (mirrored git: https://git.unit193.net/cgit/veracrypt.git/, https://bitbucket.org/unit193/veracrypt/src/master/, | 23:50 |
| Unit193 | https://salsa.debian.org/debian-edu-pkg-team/veracrypt) | 23:50 |
