plasma41fsmithred: You're listed as the maintainer for fontsnaps. What is it and do we still need it?06:40
plasma41I'm not seeing KatolaZ' setnet package in the Beowulf repositories. Did something happen to it?06:49

LeePensetnet was never built for anything later than ascii.11:03
LeePenIs it useful?11:03
rrqit (probably) functions well enough, but the maintainer is still on his walkabout11:24
fsmithredfontsnaps is needed to increase/decrease text size on xfce desktop12:06
fsmithredAs discussed in yesterday's meeting, here's the archive of issues from the old devuan gitlab. It just unpacks to a bunch of files without a useful index. Maybe someone would like to make an index or make it searchable or come up with some other way to easily find information in it. https://get.refracta.org/files/_old_devuan_gitlab_issues/gitlab-issues-complete.tar.gz14:05
LeePenplasma41: do you want to take it over and build it for unstable?14:28
fsmithredFWIW, fontsnaps-1.4 in beowulf works in ceres.15:34
golinuxRegarding setnet . . . the creator/maintainer having given up on the Linux, is now running BSD on all of his machines.17:46
golinuxIn his own words:17:50
golinux"A few phloggers have recently mentioned to have "ditched" Linux for17:50
golinuxgood [1][2][3][4].17:50
golinuxI am also replacing Linux with OpenBSD in all my servers and personal17:50
golinuxmachines.17:50
golinuxThe reason for the change? I think RedHat has won the systemd battle and17:50
golinuxOpenBSD still provides what I consider a sane unix-like environment."17:50
fsmithredsetnet 0.4+devuan1 works in beowulf. It's in the minimal-live.17:52
fsmithredthat's the ascii version. The experimental version is older. (0.3.2+devuan1.2)17:53
fsmithredwe should probably put the ascii version in beowulf. I'll find something else for chimaera if this stops working or if someone things that something else would be better.17:54
yetiopenbsd is too queer... like me... and that in sum would be really too much!18:39
yetiI really cannot see why so many like it... theo is like a small dictator sometimes. but ok... most times he's more entertainung than linus18:39
yeti:-Þ18:40
yeti(queer like in the old meaning, not the lgbtQwhatoever one)18:40
yetiübersetz mal wer "komischer kauz" ... ich komm grad nich drauf...18:40
* yeti is more inclined towards netbsd... less aggressive "different"18:41
