| gnu_srs1 | Seems like dpkg-fsys-usrunmess is part of dpkg since version 1.20.6, while dpkg for Beowulf is at 1.19.7. | 10:30 |
| gnu_srs1 | Maybe it should be made available somehow also for Beowulf, forking dpkg-1.19-7 or making a later version available via proposed-updates?? | 10:30 |
| gnu_srs1 | As is well known the Debian installer use merged-/usr as default since Buster! Not easily selectable :( | 10:30 |
| rrq | yeah, that's what my https://git.devuan.org/rrq/newlisp-ftw/src/branch/master/un-merge-usr.lsp is for :) | 10:40 |
| onefang | They are supposed to be merged in Beoowulf installs? My debootstrapped Beowulf isn't merged. | 10:41 |
| gnu_srs1 | Your file is a lisp one, and the in dpkg is a shell script. How do you propose the usage of either? | 10:42 |
| gnu_srs1 | onefang: Migrating from Debian/Buster to Devuan/Beowulf does carry the merged-/usr inheritance. | 10:43 |
| onefang | So Beowulf installs don't merge, Buster installs do? | 10:45 |
| gnu_srs1 | Yes, that's my belief, right rrq? | 10:54 |
| gnu_srs1 | Did successfully run dpkg-fsys-usrunmess on a Debian/Bulleye image :) No problems except that /usr/bin/modules/... were not removed. | 12:42 |
| gnu_srs1 | Should all have been moved to /bin/modules/.... However as a safety I did apt-get install --reinstall linux-image-amd64 :D | 12:42 |
| gnu_srs1 | So one even might try that on real HW boxes... | 12:43 |
| rrq | gnu_srs1: install newlisp first | 12:44 |
| onefang | What's /bin/modules? Do you perhaps mean /lib/modules? | 12:44 |
| gnu_srs1 | onefang: Sorry /lib/modules of course ;( | 12:45 |
| gnu_srs1 | :( | 12:45 |
| rrq | could be shell script for all except for replacing the link /lib with the directory /lib | 12:46 |
| gnu_srs1 | rrq: Maybe your script could be an option for the Buster-to-Beowulf script of tito? | 12:47 |
| gnu_srs1 | Haven't tried it yet myself though. | 12:48 |
| rrq | yes; according to my trials un-merge-usr can be done at any time; before or after migration... still a small set of trials of course | 12:50 |
| gnu_srs1 | rrq: How does your script compare with the dpkg-one? Does yours have a man page, options like --dry-run etc? | 12:53 |
| rrq | afraid not :( | 12:54 |
| rrq | from what I read, the method is roughly the same: copy the /usr dirs to temporary dirs, then put them in place, then "remove" those that are (known) in wrong place | 12:56 |
| rrq | it ends up copying all the "compiled" python dirs as well; could be removed, but I left that for the operator | 12:57 |
| rrq | .. remove "wrong" files as per dpkg-query | 12:59 |
