golinuxYet another user suffering from sources.list confusion.  I think that there are many users (like me) still on jessie and they are just now beginning to migrate to ascii or beowulf..21:42
golinuxChannels are getting multiple questions about this on a daily basis.21:45
yetiare users silly or are the docs too hidden?21:47
yetioh... lazy might be an alternative to silly too...21:47
fsmithredsome people never changed their sources through all the upgrades21:49
fsmithredthen suddenly it doesn't work21:50
fsmithredso they ask21:50
fsmithredthere's no is-devuan-broken-just-for-me.com so they come here21:50
fsmithredI thought someone said that the old round-robin gets redirected to the new one, but I guess that's not the case.21:52
yetiok... so a docs problem21:53
yetidevuan needs a FAQ?21:53
fsmithredthat might get used more21:54
fsmithredbut I think I just described a scenario where the person's first thought is that something is wrong, and therefore would not even be in the docs21:55
fsmithredanswer would not be...21:55
yetistart a faq in gitea and tell readers here to cut and paste candiates for the faq over from irc to issues there?21:55
fsmithredthat would be a good way to do it21:55
yetieven the ones not having an answer could c&p the questiones over to there21:56
fsmithredtrue. That should be a hint not to ask those questions.21:57
yetibtw... I'm thinking to drop gitea@home because it is sloooooooooow21:58
yetiit scales badly on huge repos21:58
fsmithredyou running the server there?21:59
yetiyip21:59
yeti@home21:59
fsmithredI just use clones21:59
yetiI wanted to automate mirroring of stuff22:00
yetithink I'll just script stuff around    git clone --mirror   and updates via    git fetch22:00
yeticlicking on stuff like a mirror of netbsd/src takes tens of minutes until gitea presents the repo's page22:01
fsmithredwow22:01
yetisomeone said it were sooo lightm a PI would be enough22:01
fsmithredPI?22:02
fsmithredyikes22:02
fsmithredmy desktop background just had a seizure while I'm upgrading22:02
yetiI think gitea has an unjustified badge of being light attached22:02
yetiprobably some scripts and cron will do what I need better22:03
yetiI need no issues, pr-discussion at al for the mirrors22:04
fsmithredthat would be light22:04
yetiwhoever said, even a PI1 would be enough for gitea, sure hasnt bif projects in there22:05
fsmithredneed to reboot.22:05
fsmithredI don't think you could run a browser on a PII these days22:06
yetiI tried pi2 and maybe pi3... dont remember... currently it runs on a cubietruck because it has twice the PI's ram and I wanted to test for RAM being the bottleneck22:06
fsmithredoh, Pi 122:06
fsmithrednot pentium-222:06
fsmithredbrb22:06
golinuxIt's a RTFM problem.  That information is available but nobody bothers to look for it these days.22:12
yeti:-/22:14
masonhm, hope fsmithred didn't lose power. I heard that same thunder away to the south.22:58
