kreyren07:49
kreyrenhelp07:49
kreyrenwhere do i get the cert07:49
kreyrennwm found it07:50
xrogaantesting might not be the keyword you want08:16
xrogaannot sure though. fsmithred jaromil ?08:16
kreyrenneed help with it tho.. i don't know how to fix that gpg err;-;08:26
kreyrentesting should be fine assuming running debian testing08:26
kreyrenexpecting frankendebian08:26
Evilhamkreyren: testing is an alias for beowulf, which follows buster, aka debian stable08:27
gnarfacekreyren: apt-key add [filename]08:27
gnarface(as root)08:27
gnarfacethere is a package for it though too08:28
Evilhamkreyren: it wouldn't make much sense for devuan to follow debian "testing", because releases don't happen simultaneously and things would utterly break with e.g. different libc versions08:29
EvilhamSo testing is just an alias, and you probably want to use release names knowing what they mean08:30
kreyrenis there release compatible with testing debian ?08:49
xrogaanwhich "testing" do you want?08:53
xrogaanbuster or bullseye?08:53
r3bootkreyren: gpg --recv-keys 94532124541922FB | sudo apt-key add -09:31
kreyrenr3boot, http://ix.io/1Qei09:42
kreyrenxrogaan, it's bullseye, buster is stable now09:42
xrogaanyes, but ascii is still devuan's stable.09:47
xrogaanyou want devuan's testing, which is beowulf09:47
kreyrenyou dont have symlink from testing to current release name?09:49
kreyrenso that i woudn't have to change it after new release09:50
kreyrenseems to be the case based on size and modify date in https://deb.devuan.org/devuan/09:53
xrogaandevuan testing is beowulf.09:59
xrogaanhttps://deb.devuan.org/devuan/devuan/dists/testing/InRelease << "Suite: beowulf"09:59
kreyrenxrogaan, so this is sane? http://ix.io/1Qet10:23
xrogaanno10:24
xrogaandebian testing != devuan testing10:24
kreyrenxrogaan, so what should i use? expecting franken-debian10:36
kreyrenbeowulf?10:36
xrogaanstable debian, buster, correspond to testing devuan, beowulf. That is until beowulf gets released.10:39
xrogaanfranken-debian is a bad idea10:39
kreyrenwhy is it bad idea10:39
xrogaanBecause you add back removed packages? Creates conflicts right?10:40
kreyrenconflicts are not a problem i can resolve these10:41
xrogaanthe checksum of the devuan packages, even though they don't differ from debian's, will be different10:44
xrogaanbecause of the tarball metadata10:44
kreyrennoted10:44
kreyrenSo how do i resolve this on devuan? `W: GPG error: http://deb.devuan.org/devuan testing-proposed-updates InRelease: The following signatures couldn't be verified because the public key is not available: NO_PUBKEY 94532124541922FB` assuming https://pastebin.com/raw/JUh5Q1QG10:44
xrogaanyou have devuan-keyring?10:45
kreyrennope10:46
kreyrentrying to fetch10:46
kreyrengot it works, ty11:07
kreyren,v consolekit211:07
kreyrenah.. you don't have consolekit2 on devuan?11:08
kreyrengot it nwm11:08
kreyrennwm that is consolekit1 how do i get consolekit2 ?11:55
kreyrenyou seem to have it on https://git.devuan.org/devuan-packages/ConsoleKit211:56
Akulihow do i update the clock from ntp or whatever devuan uses?18:24
Akulii googled instructions and found ntp and ntpd, but they don't seem to be installed by default, is some ntp alternative installed?18:25
gnarfacethis is not different from debian18:26
gnarfaceapt-get install ntp18:26
Akuliis there a reason why it isn't installed by default? because debian doesn't do it?18:27
gnarfaceyes18:27
Akulithanks :)18:27
gnarfacewith in some installation choices, it may get installed by default, but that would also be the same ones as debian18:27
gnarfaceyou can use ntpdate instead if you just want to update the clock once and not keep a daemon running18:28
gnarface(same as debian there too)18:28
unixmanIf you have a "bad" clock with a large drift, as I have seen in some systems, might need to run a cron job several times a day to keep the clock in sync.18:30
gnarfaceyea, in those cases it's usually better to just run ntpd18:30
gnarfacentpd has almost no resource requirements18:30
gnarfacethey sure don't make those clocks like they used to18:31
gnarfaceand with ARM hardware that doesn't even have a actual clock, ntpd is almost a necessity18:32
* unixman nods18:42
kreyrenis there any repository in devuan that is equivalent to debian bullseye?18:50
gnarfacewhich one is bullseye now?  is that their new testing?18:51
kreyrenyep18:51
gnarfacehmm, that's a good question but i don't know if it is up yet18:51
kreyrenusing https://i.imgur.com/NRZk9lz.png and i would want to use more recent packages from devuan18:52
kreyrensince i need them for openrc from debian to work without issues18:53
gnarfacei think the current state of affairs is that beowulf, which is still devuan testing, corresponds to debian stable now18:54
gnarfaceif debian buster just went stable recently18:54
kreyrenyep seems to be that way18:54
gnarfaceso that puts devuan out of sync until they catch up18:54
gnarfaceyou can still get the package from ceres though, in a pinch18:54
kreyrenlike it works fine with beowulf + bullseye atm18:54
kreyrenactually it works great no issues in comparison to only debian..18:55
kreyrenceres?18:56
gnarfaceceres is devuan unstable, corresponding to debian sid18:56
gnarfacelike debian sid, it's always designated unstable18:57
kreyreni see i was thinking about it, but i'm not sure about stability on sid18:57
gnarfacewell you could try backporting the package just to see18:57
kreyrensince my kreybian is rescue OS to gentoo/exherbo/guix18:57
gnarfacesounds quite daring18:58
kreyreneh? O.o18:58
gnarfacemixing distros/major releases/repos18:59
gnarfaceit's just all risky business18:59
gnarfacei recommend make a backup before you do anything18:59
kreyrennot really18:59
kreyrenmeh backup is for the weak xD i have configurations on remote server to fetch on demand rest can be grabbed from iso/tarball19:00
kreyrenor i have WIP LFS script that  can export apt on itself19:00
kreyrenprobably testing packages one by one on current to pin packages from sid is more sane?19:05
gnarfacewell, backporting from sid (ceres) is more sane19:05
gnarfacewhich basically just means rebuilding from the src package19:06
gnarfacebut you might have to rebuild dependency packages too19:06
gnarfaceand it can get out of hand19:06
gnarfacedepending on how broad the discrepancies are19:06
kreyrencompiling is preffered19:07
kreyrenwill investigate ty for info19:07
gnarfacethe basic procedure as described by the debian backports instructions should apply generally to devuan too19:07
gnarfacethe only real difference being which repo you get the src packages from19:08
kreyreni see19:08
kreyrenis there a way to make debian sid to not fetch latest git commit etc.. ? So that it woudn't break as often19:09
kreyrenor are these cherrypicked?19:09
gnarfaceyea i think that's up to the individual package maintainers19:09
kreyrennoted19:10
gnarfacesome of them will do it that way because that's just what "unstable" is for... breaking things19:10
gnarfaceif you follow the story line of the movies that debian names their releases after19:10
drawkulaiirc there are incoming and experimental before a package reaches unstable...19:11
gnarfaceit is important to note that "sid" is the neighbor kid that breaks toys19:11
gnarfacethat wasn't chosen by accident19:11
drawkulaso unstable is not the hottest magma19:11
kreyrenik, just not sure if it's the best approach19:11
kreyrenlike i'm using experimental for nvidia-drivers which is sane for example19:11
gnarfaceyes, there is also "experimental" which is more risky than sid/unstable but it is not a complete package set19:11
gnarfacejust be aware that some package maintainers are using sid to try to fix their shit while some of them are actively trying to break it19:12
kreyrenand using openrc with it's deps from sid should also be sane19:12
kreyrenassuming that it's adapted for gentoo's rolling19:12
gnarfacei did use experimental for nvidia drivers once and i would not recommend it19:13
gnarfaceymmv19:13
kreyrenworks for me so far.. GPU performance is slightly better and it's more stable19:13
kreyrenor like it was dropping frames on testing, but it issueless on experimental19:14
drawkulaI typically grab the deb-sources... mixing binaries from different branches is not good for my sleep... :-)19:14
kreyrenusing deb-sources from debian+devuan is going to make them compatible?19:14
drawkulanot automagically19:15
kreyrenthe built itself will output conflicts to be resolved prior to merge or ?19:15
drawkulasome will build without changes, some need minor tweaks, some are beasts...19:15
kreyreni see19:16
kreyrenty for info, i will investigate19:16
* kreyren needs to go afk now19:16
drawkulalokk into the dsc files for build dependencies19:16
drawkulalook19:16
golinuxkreyren: The is not yet a devuan repo that parallels bullseye19:44
golinuxThat will only happen once beowulf (stretch) is officially released.19:45
drawkulabeowulf (buster)?19:45
golinuxUrmmm yes,  Senior moment19:47
golinuxThanks for catching that.19:47
drawkulaI mostly use debian/devuan+number in my notes19:49
weedloserany idea of when beowulf will get released?19:53
weedloseri bet you get this question often, sorry19:54
gnarfaceif you ask the right people you might be able to find a inventory of packages known to still be broken19:55
gnarfaceor if you have a spare machine you can just try it19:55
gnarface(or put it in a vm or whatever)19:55
weedloserI did try beowulf in a vm a few months back, worked fine19:55
gnarfacei think they're still working on some of the permissions backends related to graphical login prompts and such19:56
gnarfaceit's probably fine for headless machines19:56
weedloserwhere can i see the progress and maybe help out?19:56
gnarfacethat's a good question and other than the repo itself i'm not sure the right answer19:56
gnarfacei think jaromil might have been keeping a broken packages list separately from bugs.devuan.org where they're supposed to be submitted19:59
weedloseri see they have a gitlab but it's a little difficult to work with19:59
weedloserthanks19:59
gnarfacebut that list itself may be still incomplete.  i think the status currently is they're still waiting for feedback to consider a status report valid20:00
gnarfaceoh and i think fsmithred was saying a week or two ago that most the task-* metapackages related to desktop stuff are broken20:02
gnarfaceor, if not most of them, an unknown quantity of them, making it a bit of a minefield20:02
weedlosertoo bad there's so little manpower into this project!20:05
gnarfaceyes, but we can only blame ourselves20:05
gnarfacefor not helping20:05
gnarfacethey're definitely looking for volunteers20:06
weedloseri know it's wishful thinking but i really hope this effort integrates with debian20:06
weedloserfragmentation is no good20:06
gnarfacei hope debian disbands frankly20:06
gnarfaceand then all the users and testers and maintainers with a soul left just come over here20:07
gnarfacebut that is more of a conversation for #debianfork20:07
weedloserseeing as the nature of debian is compatibility and modular it just makes perfect sense to also have init freedom, support for several inits20:10
weedloseraltough it's hard work20:10
weedloseronly gentoo competes i think... and it's source based20:10
gnarfacethis is a designated support channel20:10
weedloseryes, sorry20:11
gnarfacethey've created #debianfork for this type of discussion20:11
gnarfaceand i'll happily agree with you there20:11
fsmithredthere is collaboration between debian and devuan20:13
fsmithredon sysvinit, elogind, not sure what else20:13
