altker128Hey guys.  Is there an LXC template for Devuan ASCII?01:54
golinuxaltker128: https://git.devuan.org/explore/projects?utf8=✓&name=LXC&sort=latest_activity_desc02:03
altker128golinux: Have you tried it?02:06
golinuxaltker128: No, I haven't.  I'm just the librarian.02:32
golinuxYou might also search the forum.02:32
altker128golinux: I tried it and it didn't work ; some issues around the base install02:42
altker128(host was devuan as well)02:42
golinuxPlease register to the DNG mail list for help/02:50
golinuxThere are also some LXC posts on the dev1galaxy forum.02:52
golinuxYou should be able to search there without registering.02:52
golinuxthough we would love to have you  :)02:53
altker128golinux: What is the "best" place to post any Devuan / LXC discussions?  I basically re-formatted and went back to Debian since I'm under the gun03:02
golinuxaltker128:  https://mailinglists.dyne.org/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/dng  and https://dev1galaxy.org/03:08
golinuxSorry to hear you were having difficulty.03:08
golinuxAre you on ascii?03:08
altker128I was03:08
altker128Yeah03:08
altker128Brand new install03:08
altker128real hardware03:08
altker128Fast install, fast boot, liked the lack of systemd03:09
golinuxCould have been as simple as incorrect sources.03:09
golinuxWe're you using deb.devuan.org?03:09
altker128Yes03:09
altker128I didn't do anything non-standard03:09
altker128Devuan also failed to create a Debian container03:09
altker128Because it was trying to mess with devuan-base-system or something03:09
golinuxWell, that's not the repo that's on the iso so would have needed to be changed.03:10
altker128Umm, isn't that a "bug" of the installer?03:10
altker128I mean apt-get install worked03:10
altker128(w/o the installation medium)03:10
golinuxNo.  When we created the installer it was pkgmaster,03:10
golinuxThen the round-robin was set up after that.03:11
golinuxIt's all in the release notes.03:11
golinuxI'll get you a link.03:11
altker128OK.  I'll try to re-visit this later.  Doing the same thing with Debian Stretch, it's off and running03:11
altker128no changes to apt sources, etc.03:11
golinuxCould be a systemd dep too.03:11
altker128Well, I mean, trying to create a Linux container that's either Debian or Devuan should work if I'm using the packaged stuff03:12
golinuxhttps://files.devuan.org/devuan_ascii/Release_notes.txt03:12
golinuxThere is a lot available it seems: https://pkginfo.devuan.org/cgi-bin/d1pkgweb-query?search=lxc&release=ascii03:13
golinuxIn all releases actually.03:14
altker128Yes, I installed lxc, it installs.  The issue is when trying to create the container03:14
altker128It fails during the creation process03:14
golinuxIt should work.  But I have no experience with setting up containers.03:15
altker128With either Debian or Devuan as the container OS03:15
golinuxDo post and ask for solutions.03:15
chainI have a strange request - could someone please install stterm and see if they have the same problem I do in mc?03:32
chainI tested this in virtualbox, and on real hardware, and I'm not sure it's just my  bad luck or an actual problem with something devuan related.03:33
Xenguychain: Sure, I'll try it03:39
chainXenguy: thanks!03:39
chainyou'll need to install mc and stterm, afterwards start stterm and open midnight commander in stterm03:40
Xenguychain: Confirmed, there is some kind of bug that limits output to 1 in 3, or w/e...03:41
XenguyBut where does the problem really lay?03:41
chainI have no clue03:41
chainI've tried different versions of mc and stterm03:41
chainI've built the latest version of st from source03:42
chainnothing that I've tried works03:42
Xenguy(I'm on Ascii BTW)03:42
XenguyI suspect st03:43
Xenguybrb03:43
chainsorry, dc03:45
chainmc does seem to read every input, but only redraws on every third keypress03:45
Xenguychain: Yes, I tested mc, and was only tracking output-on-keypress03:47
XenguyWhat is 'dc'?03:48
chainI got disconnected03:48
Xenguy21:48 -!- chain [~chain@46.19.140.18] has quit [Killed (asimov.freenode.net (Nickname regained by services))]03:48
XenguyOK gotcha03:49
chainI don't know how to further investigate this issue.03:50
XenguyNot sure what to suggest exactly.  If mc works fine in other terminal emulators, then I suppose that points the finger at stterm03:50
XenguySo there's a bug somewhere03:51
chainSt is very simple. I'm not saying it doesn't have any bugs, but I think it's more likely that the problem lies somewhere else. Maybe X libraries?03:53
XenguyNo idea03:54
chainand if st was the problem then the same combination of st + mc on other distros would give me the same problem right?03:54
XenguyAre you suggesting it only happens on Devuan, or ...?03:55
chainYes, so far only on Devuan03:55
XenguyHave you tried Debian then?03:55
chainnope03:57
XenguyThat seems to be the next logical step03:57
chainI will do that tomorrow then03:57
XenguyGood luck03:58
chainThanks!03:58

chainhello!13:29
debdogthat's just a rumor!13:30
chainXenguy: I just tested stterm on debian stretch, and there's no problem there.13:34
jyrichain: Devuan ceres15:31
jyriii  mc             3:4.8.21-1   amd64        Midnight Commander - a powerful fil15:31
jyriii  stterm         0.6-1        amd64        suckless tools simple terminal for15:31
jyrino problems15:32
chainjyri: sorry I got disconnected. What about mc and stterm packages on Devuan ceres?15:50
jyrino problems with MC on running inside stterm on Ceres15:52
chainthat's interesting, I've updated mc and stterm using Ceres repos, but that didn't help15:53
chainthere must be some other package that's changed in Ceres that fixes this15:53
HumanGeekhello there is backport repo for devuan or we should use the debian one15:57
HumanGeek?15:58
jyrichain: stterm depends https://pastebin.com/7hw2hvsw15:58
jyrimv depends https://pastebin.com/dj6VYCg815:59
jyris/mv/mc/16:00
chainI suspec either libxft or libx1116:01
chainI'll try upgrading those packages first to see if that helps16:01
chainThanks jyri16:01
jyrinp :)16:01
chainI've upgraded all direct deps to the ceres versions, and it still doesn't work16:10
chainI just upgraded xserver-xorg-core along with all deps, and it still didn't fix the problem16:18
jyrihmm16:25
jyriwell, I got to go now but I'll see if I have some time later16:26
arminso i've just been reading in some other chanel that debian wants to remove packages that has the words master or slave in their name because CoC.21:11
arminanyone knows anything further about this?21:11
golinuxThankfully Devuan is free from that bullshit.21:14
muepat least I have not heard of removals of existing packages with slave or master in their names21:15
muepthere's quite a few of them, especially with master. does not sound plausible to me that they would be removing those anytime soon even if there was a will21:16
armini can't really believe it so to say...21:16
arminwhat's next? people being reminded of dicks when they apt search autoconf?21:18
arminautoconf-dickey/unstable,unstable 2.52+20181006-1 all21:18
armin  automatic configure script builder (Thomas Dickey's version)21:18
arminalso let's just remove cockroachdb because gender.21:19
muepno because there's an obvious non-male-genital reason for the package to have "dickey" in the name21:19
armin:D21:19
arminlet's see what freebsd does about bitchx-1.2.1_1,121:20
mueprecently there has been this https://bugs.debian.org/cgi-bin/bugreport.cgi?bug=907199 but the reason is not just the package name21:20
MinceRunfortunately devuan still relies a lot on debian packages21:21
KatolaZMinceR: do you have an alternative?21:21
MinceRnot really21:22
muephm, I think it is this bug that has more details on the reasons https://bugs.debian.org/cgi-bin/bugreport.cgi?bug=90611921:22
MinceRi'm thinking of trying out some of the bsd-s since rh/ibm, the LDF and co. are driving GNU/Linux into the ground21:22
KatolaZgood21:22
KatolaZnice personal choice21:23
chainKatolaZ: I'm trying to identify the cause of the issue I have with mc running inside stterm. It doesn't work on Ascii, but it's fine on Ceres, so I've been trying to upgrade some packages using the Ceres repos. So far I've upgraded stterm and all deps, as well as xorg, and it still doesn't work.23:37
chainDo you have any suggestions?23:37
KatolaZchain: no clue sorry23:50
KatolaZI am not using stterm23:51
chainYeah, but you're way more familiar with devuan than I am23:54
se7enOhai KatolaZ23:55
se7enwhen will setnet be put into repos?23:55
se7enAlso, the new layout is a bit silly with the Quit button in the middle. I think it should be "Up", "Down", "Last"23:55
