brocashelmlet me know when we can proceed with the wiki talks00:39
golinuxproceed anytime00:51
golinuxWe'll discuss any progress on Thuirsday.00:52
brocashelmgreat!00:52
plasma41fsmithred: Just so we're on the same page: When the description in the Devuan net-tools package says "In the upstream package 'hostname' and friends are included." it's not referring to the Debian package. That text actually comes from the Debian package and refers how the software is distributed by the sourceforge upstream.01:10
fsmithredoh, I see you're right. The debian description is the same.01:12
rrqplasma41: at a quick glance the only significant source difference is in debian/patches/Bug_549397-fix-decoding-of-MII-vendor-ids.patch concerning the show_basic_mii function01:29
plasma41rrq: Is that Devuan-specific in any meaningful way?01:34
rrqno ..  i.e., yes, maybe any original reason for forking net-tools have become void01:35
rrqhas01:35
fsmithredRebuilding to reset priority to important01:39
fsmithredMar 2018 ^^^01:39
fsmithredVersion: 1.60+git20181103.0eebece-101:40
fsmithredPriority: optional01:40
fsmithredsid ^^^01:40
brocashelmi'm going to test out that new refracta (runit) iso right now01:42
gast0nfsmithred: I tried the Alpha desktop-live (amd64) version of Chimaera again, but now with: apparmor=0, and I no longer had a problem with the screen freezing. The test I am doing on a netbook with Dual Core Intel Atom N2600 with 2GB of RAM.01:51
gast0nlater I will test it on a PC with an AMD Athlon 64 300001:51
gast0nwith apparmor=001:51
fsmithredok, I think I'll add it back in now before I forget01:52
fsmithredthanks01:52
gast0napparmor sucks?01:52
gast0n:D01:53
gast0ndo you want me to comment on this in the thread you started on the mailing list?01:53
fsmithredyes, that would be good. Others may give more info.01:54
fsmithredI don't know apparmor well enough to comment on it.01:55
gast0nthe other thing is that the wallpaper is not that of Devuan, one of XFCE appears01:55
fsmithredyou booting from usb?01:55
gast0nyes01:55
fsmithredI get the same with my live usbs, even without desktop-base.01:56
fsmithredbut if I use a persistent volume and change the wallpaper on the desktop, it sticks when I boot with persistence.01:56
gast0nthe volume control appears with an X and does not work01:57
fsmithredyeah, there's some conflict in package deps01:57
fsmithredpavucontrol got installed but not pulseaudio (I think I said that right)01:57
gast0nn which folder can I find the devuan wallpaper in this live version?01:58
gast0nin*01:58
plasma41fsmithred & rrq: I just ran a debdiff on the source packages of net-tools from Sid and Ceres and there is absolutely no meaningful difference that I can see.01:58
fsmithredplasma41, did you check the control files?01:59
fsmithredPriority:01:59
plasma41fsmithred: The only difference I see between the control files is in Maintainer, Uploaders, Vcs-Browser, Vcs-Git, and Origin fields.02:01
plasma41fsmithred: Priority is important in both.02:01
fsmithredhuh02:01
fsmithredmaybe debian changed back02:01
fsmithredapt show net-tools shows the following for sid02:02
fsmithredVersion: 1.60+git20181103.0eebece-102:02
fsmithredPriority: optional02:02
fsmithredgast0n, /usr/share/desktop-base or /usr/share/images/desktop-base02:04
gast0nthanks :)02:04
plasma41fsmithred: I don't know how you're seeing that. https://tracker.debian.org/media/packages/n/net-tools/control-1.60git20181103.0eebece-1 refutes that.02:05
fsmithredI have this in sources.list: deb http://debian.csail.mit.edu/debian sid main02:06
fsmithredpinned low02:06
fsmithredthat's weird02:08
brocashelmthe refracta chimaera test iso is pretty nice so far. the deepsea-milky wallpaper looks good too. i'm taking a look at the runscript collections and reading the document now02:10
plasma41fsmithred: Downloading http://debian.csail.mit.edu/debian/pool/main/n/net-tools/net-tools_1.60+git20181103.0eebece-1_amd64.deb and running 'dpkg-deb --info' on it shows "Priority: important".02:12
plasma41Unless someone can find something I'm missing, we should drop net-tools from our list of forked packages.02:13
fsmithredI just installed debian recently. If it's still there, I'll check.02:21
fsmithredIf I can remember where it is.02:21
brocashelmok, having a problem here02:24
rrqpresumably debian has changed back to "important"... in any case, I'd agree with plasma4102:24
brocashelmfollowing the steps, /etc/init.d/cron start = permission denied02:24
fsmithredisn't cron set to run from a runit script?02:24
fsmithredcron and anacron?02:24
brocashelmyes, but it gave me the same error with stop (first step)02:26
brocashelmthe other steps worked (like dpkg-divert)02:26
brocashelmmy output: https://paste.debian.net/plainh/be6b246402:28
rrqchmod a+x /etc/init.d/cron02:29
brocashelmah02:30
fsmithredoh yeah. I neutered the ones I switched over to run scripts.02:33
fsmithredread the readme!02:33
brocashelmyeah, it worked otherwise02:36
brocashelmi'll try a few other services next02:37
fsmithredplasma41, in the bullseye I installed yesterday, net-tools has Priority: optional and it did not get installed by default.02:39
fsmithredand BTW, 2G ram in the VM is not quite enough for gnome to function. Takes a long time for anything to happen.02:40
fsmithredand I know I'm in the wrong channel for this, but I resent having to type 'terminal' in a search box to be presented with a terminal icon on the desktop.02:41
plasma41fsmithred: FWIW, Ctrl+Alt+T opens a terminal window on my system. I think it's part of the standard Xfce config.04:13
fsmithred this was in gnome on debian bullseye04:14
fsmithredthat key combination might work. It works in other places, too.04:15
LeePenBeowulf updated: clearlooks-phenix-cinnabar-theme, eudev and rsyslog15:49
fsmithredthanks17:09
plasma41Larabel's watching us like a hawk. https://www.phoronix.com/scan.php?page=news_item&px=Devuan-4.0-Alpha-Builds-July20:18
plasma41The comments section so far is surprisingly chill. I guess that's a good thing, but I was kinda hoping to enjoy some delicious saltiness :-P20:22
brocashelmyeah, i like reading the discussions there20:54
brocashelmgood so far20:54
