| d4n13L | hey. anyone I can talk to about adding a new public mirror we setup a few days ago? | 05:17 |
|---|---|---|
| onefang | ISO or package mirror? If it's a package mirror, then I'm the one to talk to. But I'm in weekend mode right now. | 05:30 |
| onefang | https://pkgmaster.devuan.org/devuan_mirror_walkthrough.txt step 2 if it's a package mirror, but you'll have to wait until I'm done weekending before I can deal with that.. | 05:43 |
| onefang | d4n13L: ^^^ | 05:44 |
| d4n13L | currently https://files.devuan.org/MIRRORS.txt followed this one, but I guess thats the ISO images, right? but sure, I'll shoot an email for the archive then | 05:51 |
| onefang | Yes that's the ISOs. | 06:01 |
| d4n13L | yup, just sent out the email to mirros@ - but enjoy your weekend, obviously nothing urgent ;) | 06:04 |
| onefang | Thanks for your mirror. | 06:04 |
| d4n13L | sure thing, kind of a self-help situation, will make our local setups and updates way faster and more reliable here :) | 06:05 |
| bb|hcb | onefang: In your crontab running once every four hours or so, e.g., four times a day: | 12:13 |
| bb|hcb | I have somehow missed when we moved to 16 hour day ;) | 12:14 |
| bb|hcb | That is in https://files.devuan.org/MIRRORS.txt; also cron example is wrong, should be 42 */4 | 12:15 |
| onefang | That's for ISO mirrors, not package mirrors. I only deal with package mirrors. | 12:24 |
| onefang | Though my own mirror server does both. | 12:24 |
| onefang | Personally I'm more of a 32 hours per day man. lol | 12:25 |
| LeePen | chimaera-backports is enabled in amprolla. | 13:01 |
| mason | Randomly, about the eudev/udev thing, I'm starting to have second thoughts about saying the most reasonable thing is to go ahead and use systemd-udev. I'm also less convinced now that maintaining the eudev fork is ideal either. Looking at alternatives, two things that jump out are mdev and vdev. | 19:25 |
| mason | https://wiki.gentoo.org/wiki/Mdev | 19:25 |
| mason | http://judecnelson.blogspot.com/2015/01/introducing-vdev.html | 19:25 |
| mason | The BSDs also obviously don't use systemd-udev, but I don't know their devfs implementations well enough to know if they're even vaguely portable. | 19:25 |
| mason | Suckless has smdev, but I've been questioning my championing Suckless tools lately. | 19:28 |
| mason | ah: https://git.busybox.net/busybox/plain/docs/mdev.txt is the better link for mdev | 19:28 |
| mason | I'm coming around to thinking mdev might be the way forward, and I might toy with it a bit. | 19:30 |
| fsmithred | there's also vdev. If you want to know more, talk to aitor. He has used it in the past year, and possibly has some live-isos with it. | 19:37 |
| fsmithred | mason ^^^ | 19:37 |
| mason | fsmithred: Yar, golinux was just giving me some history. | 19:39 |
| mason | Seems more complex, but if there are social ties that matters. | 19:39 |
| mason | For my part, I want to present everything for the next meeting and have some links, etc. | 19:41 |
| mason | I'm far, far from having a strong notion of the best way to go. | 19:41 |
| onefang | The old maintainer of busybox (Rob Landley) left and started a similar thing called toybox. Not sure if he has an mdev type thing for that yet. I do know he runs Devuan. | 20:17 |
| onefang | I'm off to bed now. | 20:19 |
| gnu_srs | For me either tool is OK: vdev (not maintained anymore by Jude/aitor?), mdev (don't know much about that especially upstream support), | 20:35 |
| gnu_srs | eudev (not interested to become upstream, packaging is OK), systemd-udev (please god forgive). | 20:35 |
| golinux | mason et al . . . FTR, Jude Nelson's introduction of vdev on dng in 2015: https://lists.dyne.org/lurker/search/20150102.075852.283fc703@ml:dng,judecnelson.en.html | 20:36 |
