kreyrenSo iiuc devuan is made to make openrc work with apt nicely only? There is no expected support for systemd?00:03
stiltrdevuan + systemd = debian...00:08
kreyreneh? O.o00:08
buZzrofl00:09
buZzare you trolling now kreyren ?00:09
buZzare you seriously suggesting putting in effort to destroy devuan for its own ideals?00:09
kreyrenbuZz, no i don't know the lore behind debianxdevuan00:09
buZzmaybe read up then00:10
kreyrenwhere00:10
buZzhttps://www.devuan.org/00:10
buZzliterally the first sentence there00:10
buZzok, beside the headers ;D00:10
kreyrenSo i was right? Just Debian without systemd with support for openrc ?00:10
kreyrenand no expected support for systemd ?00:11
stiltrYes00:11
buZzthere's some placeholders to prevent other stuff to break00:11
buZzand many stuff patched to prevent systemderp dependencies00:11
kreyrenWhy is it calling systemctl if /run/systemd/system is present then? O.o00:11
buZzlol00:11
kreyrenbecause some of the packages are from debian?00:12
buZzmost of the packages are from debian00:12
kreyren-> If i wanted to contribute make the downstream to use only openrc ?00:12
buZzthats not a legible sentence to me00:12
kreyreno.o00:12
stiltrIdeally it should support as many init systems as possible.00:13
kreyrenstiltr, but devuan doesn't want to support systemd because that would make it into a debian?00:14
buZznobody wants systemd here00:15
kreyrenbut support for as many init systems as possible is the set ethique ?00:15
buZznot because of debian but because of systemd00:15
stiltrkreyren: Correct. If you want to use systemd, there's really no reason not to use plain debian.00:15
kreyrenstiltr, but if i wanted to use systemd on devuan it would be supported?00:16
kreyrenalike is this made just to produce a higher quality code assuming that none sane likes systemd ?00:16
stiltrI wouldn't suggest trying to use systemd. The whole point of devuan is to cut that out. You probably could, but it certainly wouldn't be supported.00:17
stiltrNot sure I understand the other part.00:18
kreyrenstiltr, i meant you said that none likes systemd here and that systemd woudn't be supported here, but that the downstream should support as many init systems as possible ideally?00:18
kreyrenSo why should i write a code that supports systemd on devuan? Just for code quality reasons to avoid unexpected behavior on unsupported system or in case debian is using the package?00:19
kreyrenor to outsource the maintainance on debian by adding openrc support to their packages that are used on devuan?00:19
stiltrThere's no point in supporting systemd specifically for a devuan package, but there are other init systems besides openrc as well.00:20
kreyrenstiltr, so should i explicitely make the downstream to fail if systemd is detected?00:20
stiltrI don't see any need to do that, but I suppose you could if you wanted to. The only real requirement I know of is that you don't depend on systemd.00:21
kreyrenstiltr, so if i am perfectionist who ideally wants to support everything i could make the downstream to support all available init systems including systemd and it would be welcomed in devuan?00:22
stiltrAs far as I understand it.00:23
kreyrennoted, thanks00:23
stiltrYou would also be free to contribute said package to debian which would end up in devuan as well.00:23
fsmithredyes, that would not be a problem00:24
fsmithredas long as it does not require systemd, it will work00:24
kreyreni see, perfect then ^-^00:24
fsmithredI have some code in either refractasnapshot or refractainstaller to deal with systemd, because I know people who use those tools in debian00:25
fsmithredwe don't remove systemd service files from packages. There's no point.00:26
buZzgood programs dont depend on init systems anyway :P00:26
fsmithredand we're happy when debian devs don't remove init scripts from packages.00:26
kreyrenAlso how would it affect devuan if i rewrote the whole debian to support both openrc and systemd? Would that just make devuan obsolete assuming that it would basically be a mirror copy of debian at that point?00:27
fsmithredlol, good luck00:27
freemkreyren: if you do so, may I formulate the request to separate the binary from the init scripts?00:28
kreyrenfsmithred, ye impossible probably assuming how debian is addicted on systemd, but i was just curious~00:28
fsmithredelogind is in debian, so that makes it easier to run debian without systemd00:29
freemthis way, we could 1) install the binary and it's manpage without enabling it and 2) easily write init scripts for other init systems (and I could share the ones I use for runit)00:29
buZzkreyren: debian is over 60000 packages00:29
freemand yes ^ good luck with that :)00:29
kreyrentbh i am working on my package manager which i want to make to generate packages for apt on demand so in theory the logic could be adapted for that to make it feasable to rewrote those 600K packages~00:30
fsmithredfreem, do you know that runit will be a choice in the installer in the near future?00:30
buZzkreyren: if you just demonstrated how accurate you are, i feel for you00:30
kreyrenbuZz, currently not really usable i am rewriting that for 15th time and i am still not happy with it~00:31
freemfsmithred: I know debian currently proses runit as an init choice00:31
buZzah, also unable to read beside unable to parse :D00:31
kreyrenit also has openrc but it's implemented as malware that breaks the system~00:31
freemnot sure for devuan, but I think the way init stuff is managed is... fragile?00:31
fsmithredfreem, it's installable in devuan, too. But it will soon be a choice in the installer.00:31
kreyren(meaning debian has openrc in it's downstream as alternative init)00:32
freemgood! Would there be a way to help?00:32
fsmithredprobably, but I'm not sure what.00:32
fsmithredmaybe people will need init scripts00:32
freemI already use a debian with only runit stuff after all, maybe I could contribute00:32
fsmithredand you have some to share00:32
fsmithredthere are a few people in the community using runit00:33
fsmithredon dng mailing list and in forum00:33
freembut how is handled multiple init scripts? All bundled in the same deb?00:33
fsmithredI assume there will be more when they are presented with a screen during the install00:34
fsmithredI don't know00:34
freemrelying on the horrible post/pre-rm/inst scripts?00:34
fsmithredor just putting them in different directories, maybe00:34
fsmithredthe openrc implementation uses sysvinit scripts00:34
fsmithredand I know people are working on changing that00:35
freemde deb archives can of course do that, but debian relies a lot on those scripts, makes things way too hard imo. But, it's my opinion only.00:35
freemnotably, I have a working system to link generic log/run files. It's not rocket science, ofc00:37
freemhttp://paste.debian.net/1152253/00:38
freemit's this. It works when used as a simple symlink, and I've actually used it on 2 hardware archs and more than 200 systems.00:39
golinuxWhy is this discussion on this channel?   It is not a support question.00:44
freemsorry. Is there is a better place? Could you show it to me?00:44
golinuxI was thinking of kreyren's blathering about systemd00:45
freemoh...00:45
kreyreneh? O.o00:45
* kreyren is focusing on writing the code and doesn't read the chats~00:46
golinuxmaybe devuan-dev.00:46
golinuxThough no one here is really interested in putting any energy into systemd00:47
freemactually, I think devuan is more interested in staying as close as possible to debian, right? So, except for not installing the systemd service files and the systemd dependency (which is still a useful work, don't take me wrong) I think the goal is to not change stuff?00:48
freemam I wrong?00:49
fsmithredpretty much right00:49
fsmithredprovide debian without systemd is the main idea00:49
freembut, it still claims "init independency", so, I think there is a huge problem with how it's done00:50
freempardon me if it's presomptuous, I undertand the many work you already did00:50
golinuxsystemd does not play well with others.  And debian devs are intentionally dismantling non-systemd support.00:51
golinuxBut this is not a topic for this channel00:52
freem#devuan-dev you said, then? And I'm not talking about systemd anyway.00:53
specingthey should adopt dnf and become a proper derivative of centos00:53
golinux#devuan-dev is where development happens.  systemd is a dean horse here.  Please stop beating it.00:59
golinuxdean > dead00:59
MinceRok, who appointed a horse as Dean? :>00:59
golinuxMy fumbling fingers01:00
kreyrenWhat networking backend should i be using on devuan? I currently have these packages installed http://ix.io/2pib and tor returns http://dpaste.com/14XWCYQ01:06
crhyloveStill can't get this beowulf install to change my default audio output device.01:08
crhyloveI can change the output device in each app, but I can't use the volume knobs anywhere.01:09
crhyloveALSA.01:09
kreyren(tor is grabbed from upstream designed for debian buster)01:10
* kreyren is rebooting sent me a `/msg MemoServ kreyren send msg` plz01:11
* kreyren_ is back01:12
rrqcrhylove: in ~/.asoundrc: defaults.ctl.card 1 ;  defaults.pcm.card 1 ; defaults.timer.card 1 ;01:16
rrqor was it "2" rather than "1"?01:16
fsmithredsomebody was 201:22
crhyloverrq, Thanks!  Will try now.01:23
crhyloveYeah, 2.01:23
crhyloveWhere do I find .asoundrc?01:24
kreyrenping01:25
crhylovepong01:25
kreyrencrhylove, thanks01:25
crhyloveyw01:25
fsmithredcrhylove, in your home directory01:26
fsmithredthat's what the ~/ means01:26
kreyrenWhat networking backend should i be using on devuan assuming that tor fails with http://ix.io/2pif and my packages installed are http://ix.io/2pig ?01:26
* kreyren assumes that his previous message wasn't sent since he wasn't identified~01:26
crhylovefsmithred, Yeah, it didn't exist so I created it....  Gonna reboot to see if it worked.  BRB01:27
crhyloveDo I need to chown or chmod it?01:28
crhyloveright now it's root:root01:28
fsmithredoh01:29
fsmithredshould be owned by user01:29
fsmithredchown you:you .asoundrc01:29
crhyloveGot it....01:30
crhylovechmod?  I just 777.... *shrugs*01:30
fsmithredno01:30
crhylove666?01:30
fsmithredI would have left it alone01:31
fsmithredprobably 64401:31
MinceR01:31
crhyloveOK, 644'ed it.  BRB01:31
crhyloveThat did not fix it.01:34
crhyloveHowever, now I have a speaker icon in the systray.01:34
crhyloveBut I still can't switch outputs in the sound preferences.01:35
crhylovewhat's the command for sound preferences?  Maybe if I run it as root?01:35
crhyloveGoogle brings up pulse audio.... I'd rather not though.01:37

crhyloveHere's the area where the Output can be selected, but doesn't keep.01:42
crhyloveUnable to locate package alsamixer01:42
fsmithredinstall alsa-utils01:43
kreyrenResolved the tor issue by invoking `ip link set lo up` since it was refusing to bind to 192.168.0.001:44
crhylovepackage:  alsamixergui....01:44
fsmithredyeah, if you want to mouse it01:45
crhyloveALSA lib control.c:1271:(snd_ctl_open_conf) type is not defined01:45
fsmithredas root:01:45
fsmithredlsmod |grep snd01:45
crhyloveThat gives me the big list.01:46
fsmithredok, good01:46
fsmithredand every item has 'snd' in it?01:46
crhyloveYeah, except the last two:  soundcore and usbcore01:47
fsmithredok01:47
fsmithredand you don't have pulseaudio installed?01:48
crhylovedon't think so.....01:48
crhylovehttps://pasteboard.co/JdgRMVA.png01:52
fsmithredI can't see those01:54
systemdletelspci shows me that the address referred to in the error messages (the ones re WARN TRB event) is an ASMedia usb 3.0 hub.  So I disconnected both devices from that hub's ports (and connected them to other, 2.0 ports).  Waiting to see if those errors appear again.02:34
crhyloveArgh.  Got Alsamixergui to work, and still can't change sound cards.03:32

fsmithredis pavucontrol installed?03:41
crhyloveYeah, but it says "Establishing connection to PulseAudio. Please wait..." forever03:42
fsmithredtry opening an audio app first and then start pavucontrol03:42
tuxd3vthat could mean pulkseaudio is not running..03:43
crhyloveI have a bunch of audio apps open.03:43
fsmithredyeah, the config file is the next thing to check03:43
crhyloveI can select the proper hardware on a per app basis.03:43
fsmithredand does it work?03:44
crhyloveBut I can't change audio devices in firefox, for instance.03:44
crhyloveYeah, for Hydrogen, OBS, Ardour, Audacious, and Audacity.03:44
crhyloveBut not other less audio focused apps.03:44
tuxd3vI also can't change them, what is your default DE03:44
tuxd3v?03:44
crhyloveMate03:44
fsmithredand you got a way to change the default card, but I think that was for a pure alsa system03:44
crhyloveIn Sound Preferences, I select the output, it reverts back to the old one immediately.03:45
fsmithredI don't know if that works with PA03:45
crhyloveWhat's the CLI command for opening sound preferences?03:45
crhylovemaybe if I run it as root....03:45
fsmithredwhat sound preferences?03:46
crhyloveright click on the speaker in the system tray03:46
fsmithredyou want a mixer?03:46
crhyloveI just want to change output.03:46
fsmithredI think you have to do that with pavucontrol if you're using pulseaudio03:46
crhyloveBut it won't stay.  It reverts back to the other one automatically.03:47
crhylovepavucontrol never establishes a connection03:47
crhyloveas posted above.03:47
fsmithredis pulseaudio running? Did you fix the line in /etc/pulse/whatever it is?03:47
fsmithredYou probalby don't know what I'm talking about03:47
fsmithredif you're gonna use PA, check the release notes for the fix to make it autostart03:48
fsmithredeither comment or uncomment one line. I always forget which, but it says what to do right there in the file.03:48
crhyloveautospawn?03:49
fsmithredyeah03:49
fsmithredI should remember that. I can associate it with "spawn of satan"03:49
crhyloveLOL. yeah.03:49
* tuxd3v hehehe03:49
crhyloveok, going for reboot brb.03:49
crhylove BOOM.  That fixed it.03:52
crhyloveWould be good to have that config file right out of the box.03:52
fsmithredsomeone would need to fork PA03:52
crhyloveGah.  We can't have specific config files for our distro?03:57
gnarfaceyou can, the problem is that the pulseaudio maintainers would have to include them willingly03:57
gnarfacethe only way around package maintainers' authority over their own packages is to fork the whole package03:58
crhyloveYikes.  I can see why that would be tough.  Since we are specifically excising the poettering code.03:58
gnarfaceyea, they don't like us03:58
gnarfacewe're a threat to their business plan03:59
crhyloveobv.... and rightly so.04:05
tuxd3vwith openbox + python 3.7 obamenu(pipe-menu) doesn't work.. I am porting the pipe menu to other language..04:06
tuxd3vI tried first to correct some diffs in the language, but there are tons of diferences between python3.7 and python204:07
tuxd3vit was made with python2..04:07
tuxd3vI doesn't want to install python2 hehe04:07
tuxd3vfor that I prefer to have another language installed, in that way, I have 2 languages, python3.7 and Lua5.304:09
newperson222Hello friends. I have question pertaining to using NETGEAR AC1200 Wi-Fi USB Adapter for installing Devuan. I apologize if this is covered in material somewhere, I have searched the Devuan forum and other places without success. This is my primary network connection hardware. Using the 64bit netinstall iso, my network hardware is not detected. I can06:50
newperson222select from a large list of wifi firmware to use, but I have tried many of them and can never proceed. Is this hardware supported? If you could point me toward the correct firmware that would be great. thank you06:50
newperson222Correction, the USB wifi dongle I am using is "Realtek 8812u"06:53
gnarfacenewperson222: you're sure it's rtl8812u not rtl8812au?07:01
newperson222thanks for your reply, gnarface. in windows device manager, this network adapter says "Realtek 8812BU Wireless LAN 802.11ac USB NIC"07:03
gnarfacenewperson222: google results suggest neither ac1200 nor 8812u are supported, though i'm seeing traces of evidence people tried 4 years ago and failed, that means there could be a unpublished fix floating around out there somewhere07:03
gnarfacenewperson222: unless you're desperate i'd recommend just buying something cheap that is known to work though07:03
gnarfacenewperson222: (there are decent and known-supported realtek devices for as little as $9)07:04
gnarfacenewperson222: if you can get the netinstall to complete a bootable setup i might be able to help you debug it in the case it is user error, but like i said, my initial google searches suggest nobody else succeeded at this either07:05
gnarfacenewperson222: note however that "8812BU" is not "8812u" (which may or may not even exist) - the distinction probably matters07:05
gnarfacenewperson222: because for the 8812BU, there's actually much more recent mentions, and evidence people have got it working: https://askubuntu.com/questions/1079377/how-do-i-install-drivers-for-realtek-rtl8812bu07:06
newperson222i see, thanks for this good info. yes, I've seen some forum posts from other distro's and found this: https://github.com/cilynx/rtl88x2BU_WiFi_linux_v5.2.4.4_26334.20180126_COEX20171012-5044 for instance07:07
newperson222aha yes i was viewing that page myself right now07:07
newperson222maybe if i can install with ethernet, and then apply this firmwware07:07
newperson222i'm also curious about the $9 solution you mentioned, is that a specific product you know of?07:10
newperson222i have not found a list of compatible usb wifi devices for devuan07:14
gnarfacestand by i'll dig it up for you07:16
newperson222thanks much!07:17
gnarfaceyes, installing with wired ethernet first is generally advised though07:17
onefangI had a similar problem years ago.  I got a TP-Link TL-WN722N that has a Realtek 8188EU that's been working fine for me.  firmware-realtek apt package.07:17
gnarfacenewperson222: search for d-link dwa12107:18
gnarfacenewperson222: might also be listed as wireless n 150 pico usb adapter07:19
gnarfacenewperson222: also requires firmware-realtek but works reliably and is cheap07:19
newperson222thanks gnarface and onefang, i've written this down! happy hacking07:20
newperson222cheers07:25
openbsdtai123Good morning, a little question, how to detect that the pi has HDMI plugged and not. This is for the audio plughw 0 or 1, depending on the hardware/plugs of the box.07:54

kreyrenWhat is the proper way to get winehq on devuan?09:00
kreyrenalso i need steam~09:08
debdoghttps://wiki.winehq.org/Debian09:14
kreyrendebdog, that doesn't work on devuan since it's expecting bullseye09:15
kreyrenedit: expecting winehq-staging from bullseye09:15
debdogwhat does expect bullseye?09:15
kreyrenthe winehq repository for debian used on devuan09:16
debdogit says "Debian 10 (Buster)       deb https://dl.winehq.org/wine-builds/debian/ buster main"09:18
kreyrentrying09:19
Unit193You'll need libfaudio0/etc too.09:20
debdogor do you refer to steam regarding "expecting bullseye"? in that case, I have no clue.09:27
kreyrendebdog, same issue http://ix.io/2pju09:27
kreyrensorry took a long time to sync~09:27
debdoghave you been following "The WineHQ packages for Debian 10 and later require libfaudio0 as a dependency. Since the distro does not provide it for Debian 10, users of that version can download libfaudio0 packages from the OBS. See https://forum.winehq.org/viewtopic.php?f=8&t=32192 for details."?09:28
kreyrennoted09:29
kreyrendebdog, about the steam i expect winehq-staging and steam to be invidual from each other09:29
kreyrenthe steam i think i can solve myself by using the valve repository09:29
debdogbtw. what command do you use to install stuff? apt, apt-get, aptitude, ...?09:30
debdogjust curious (because http://ix.io/2pju does not include which packages are missing)09:31
kreyreneither on random09:31
debdogdunno about about apt but aptitude, compared to apt-get, gives more useful output when running into problems09:33
* kreyren is running aptitude then09:33
kreyrenhttp://bpa.st/YNGQ09:34
kreyrendebdog,09:37
debdoghave you added multiarch i386?09:40
kreyrendebdog, yep, multilib managed through sources.list09:40
kreyrenhttp://ix.io/2pjw09:40
debdoghave you run an "aptitude update; aptitude upgrade" beforehand?09:40

debdogdunno about i386 in sources.list. I usually run dpkg --add-architecture i386 (https://wiki.debian.org/Multiarch/HOWTO#Usage)09:42
kreyrendebdog, should work the same while allowing for a greater control over binaries09:43
* debdog shrugs09:43
debdogthat's above my paygrade09:43
buZzi never seen manual multilib work09:43
kreyrenlike i can switch it if you want o.O but it always worked for me~09:44
debdogyah, just saying I do not know what to do exactly in that case to resolve https://bpa.st/YNGQ09:44
debdogplus, you might have installed the wrong version of libfaudio (not entirely sure about that)09:46
debdogit's been a while since I've last installed winehq here and things/dependencies might have changed09:47
kreyreni think i've switched on stable from beowulf by mistake and getting broken packages now http://bpa.st/6NOA09:47
kreyrenshould i undo that on beowulf again?09:48
kreyrenor it doesn't matter because beowulf and stable in devuan are same repo and this is caused by something else?09:48
debdogwhat does "aptitude show libfaudio0 | grep -i version" return?09:49
kreyrenVersion: 20.04-209:49
debdoghmm, mine says 20.01-0~buster09:50
kreyrenO.o09:50
* kreyren needs to restart his irc, sec09:50
kreyrenback09:51
debdogthis https://download.opensuse.org/repositories/Emulators:/Wine:/Debian/Debian_10/ says 20.01, too09:51
kreyrenThe stable and beowulf seems to be the same repo on the devuan though09:51
kreyreni am using default release pinned to stable maybe that changes it?09:51
kreyrenhttp://ix.io/2pjB09:52
debdogmaybe using the proper version of libfaudio fixes that?09:52
kreyrenSeems that i don't even have stable libfaudio009:52
kreyrenchecking the winehq note09:52
debdoglol, should have done that earlier09:53
kreyreni though i did ;-;09:53
* debdog is afk for a short while09:53
kreyrenoh my good10:01
* kreyren just realized that his sources.list is not allowing i386 packages for winehq repository which is causing this conflict10:02
buZzdpkg --add-architecture i38610:02
kreyrenbuZz, even with that it doesn't pull if the deb [arch=amd64] is set10:03
kreyrenworks now though thanks for help ^-^10:04
crashoverrideHow tested is openrc in devuan?12:57
crashoverridei.e. I know it quite well, I ran it on my systems for the better part of the last decade.12:57
crashoverridebut my current devuan install is my dad's12:57
crashoverrideand it's an old system, so...12:58
crashoverride(meaning, laptop from 200X)12:58
crashoverridemoin aknife.12:58
specingcrashoverride: I'm running it13:14
specingit works13:14
specingbut:13:14
specing1) OpenRC is a version from 2011 !13:14
specing2) It's actually sysvinit + openrc support, not "every init script is an openrc one"13:14
crashoverrideah13:15
specing(1) this is in ascii, beowulf probably has a newer one13:15
crashoverrideah.13:15
crashoverrideyeah but 2 is a deal breaker for me.13:15
crashoverrideopenrc is great, but if it's only for a fraction of the software...13:16
specingcrashoverride: not for a fraction, all the supplied software is sysvinit13:17
specingit's only for your scripts, basicallu13:17
specingbasically*13:17
crashoverrideok13:17
crashoverridewell, no then.13:17
crashoverridethanks a lot :)13:17
crashoverrideI hope one day devuan will allow for different libcs13:19
crashoverrideI'd like uclibc, musl and maybe dietlibc13:20
crashoverridethere are other ones too, if you start digging.13:20
crashoverridehttps://www.etalabs.net/compare_libcs.html for reference13:20
specingI'm not sure if that is possible, given the binary nature13:22
crashoverridevoid does it.13:22
crashoverride:P13:22
DPAWouldn't that require rebuilding every package for every libc?13:25
DPAAlso, switching / specifying a libc is unnecessarely difficult with current compilers. gcc has spec files, at least. And I think clang actally needs to be rebuilt for using a different one...13:25
ShorTiei'd think a complete recompile would be needed for each also13:30
crashoverrideDPA: it would yes13:30
crashoverrideDPA: it also allows you to do much better QA13:30
crashoverridesince basically, having to make it work on different libcs leads to increased code portability and therefore to better code quality.13:31
crashoverride(unless you hack your way towards portability but that's on you then)13:31
crashoverrideanyway, just an idea, I like devuan already :P13:32
ShorTieand therefore to better code quality, that's a big big hope, imho13:33
crashoverridemaybe yes13:33
crashoverrideeither way, using a different libc forces devs to deal with bad code.13:33
crashoverridethe way they deal with it is up to them ultimately.13:34
crashoverrides/devs/maintainers/; s/bad code/bad upstream code/13:36
* ShorTie Thinkz, they got enough on there plate now13:37
crashoverrideyeah most probably.13:38
DPAMost libcs' only have a subset of glibcs' functionallity. I think which omissions are sensible, is arguable. I don't think code not compiling with a different libc is necessarely a problem of the code.13:41
kreyrenIs this sane pinning on devuan? https://github.com/Kreyren/apt-config/blob/leonid-devuan/preferences.d/zz-kreyren13:59
kreyrenassuming sources.list https://github.com/Kreyren/apt-config/blob/leonid-devuan/sources.list13:59
ShorTienow thats a sources.list14:17
kreyrenNot sure if i can make it to use clearweb if apt-transport-tor is not installed or available though14:21
kreyrenwould probably have to make a wrapper at that point14:21
ShorTieya, i'd agree that apt-transport-tor needs to be installed for it to work14:26
DPAIf tor is already installed, it's also possible to setup a transparent proxy using tors socks proxy and iptables and pointing the resolv.conf to tors dns. And there is an apt option for allowing resolution of *.onion domains in that's needed for that special setup. (although, the chach can probably also be circumvented by using *.onion. instead of *.onion).14:31
DPAs/chach/check/14:32
DPASetting tors socks proxy in apts config or using tsocks would probably also work.14:37
* kreyren did that again https://github.com/Kreyren/apt-config/blob/leonid-devuan/bin/apt.sh15:34
kreyrenDPA, tor is not already installed in my setup in that phase :/15:55
kreyrenbut i think i could rework it to make it set up15:55
golinuxkreyren: Never use "stable" or "testing" in your devuan sources.list.  This is well documented on the website.  https://www.devuan.org/os/releases17:10
morla101119hey! congratulations on releasing beowulf as stable! this is great!17:15
morla101119does anyone know if k8s is expected to run on beowulf?17:17
morla101119i am about to setup a new cluster and i would love to ditch ubuntu17:17
fsmithredmorla101119, https://pkginfo.devuan.org/cgi-bin/d1pkgweb-query?search=k8s&release=beowulf17:35
kreyrengolinux, i know it's documented, but it doesn't seem sane to me to pin the releases only assuming that it would point to the same thing as stable even after an update?17:39
golinuxkreyren: Except that with devuan is does not always point to the same thing17:41
kreyrengolinux, how so?17:41
golinuxDebian was stable and Devuan was testing for almost a year before the Beowulf stable release17:42
kreyrengolinux, true17:42
kreyrenchanging it then :p17:42
golinuxThat has happened to several folks who had testing in their sources and ended up on bullseye and a broken mess17:43
golinuxAnd if you use stable you will get bulleye when debian releases it17:44
golinuxYou will save yourself some grief17:45
kreyrengolinux, noted thanks ^-^17:45
golinuxyw17:45
golinuxExplained on this page https://www.devuan.org/os/releases17:46
kreyrennoted17:47
kreyreni am not sure about the pinning though17:48
kreyrenso that it would prefer devuan over debian17:48
golinuxI have never had to pin anything17:49
golinuxso can't answer to that.17:50
morla101119fsmithred, thanks. kubernetes is not expected to be in the repo.17:53
morla101119i was trying to ask if someone has gotten it to run w/o systemd. especially on devuan beowulf.17:54
kreyrenmorla101119, i did, but not on apt-based :p17:54
nemohttps://m8y.org/tmp/amdgpu.html  this is the only pin I currently have at home for Beowulf17:55
nemoI also have a stupid one at work for the ascii kernel that I hope to get rid of soon17:55
lunariothe current devuan repository is down, isn't it?17:55
nemo??17:55
nemowut17:55
kreyrenlunario, ain't for me17:55
lunarioping www.deb.devuan.org17:56

kreyrenmorla101119, sure, but if it's related to devuan you are better to ask here :p17:57
lunariothat's what i get when i try to update17:57
lunarioah right,now pinging it actually works here too17:57
morla101119kreyren, more related to how you deployed k8s :)17:57
kreyrenlunario: return output from `cat /etc/apt/sources.list |  curl -F 'f:1=<-' ix.io` then17:57
lunariobut in apt-get update i still get "Temporary failure resolving 'deb.devuan.org'"17:57
onefanghttps://borta.devuan.dev/apt-panopticon/results/Report-web.html gives the details of which mirrors are up and other stuff.17:57

kreyrenlunario, you have lots of garbage there, but seems sane to me :p17:58
lunariohaha yeah ikr17:58
lunariothe failure only happens for the devuan related entries though, not for any other17:59
kreyrenlunario, i've used gentoo for kubernetes if that helps you17:59
kreyrenlunario, return logs then :p17:59
lunariohttps://termbin.com/uxu418:00
onefangThis is one reason there are three web sites showing the package mirror status.  None of them are showing problems now, so it might be a local problem for you.18:00
kreyrenlunario, `ping google.com` works for you?18:00
lunarioyes18:00
kreyrenseems like DNS issue to me18:00
kreyrenweird18:00

lunariobut maybe i should just try again later18:01
lunarioit worked earlier today18:01
kreyrenweird18:02
onefangOr try a specific mirror?18:02
kreyren`service network restart` to force DNS refresh might help18:02
lunarioonefang: will do that if it doesn't work later18:02
kreyrenalso i would try changing /etc/resolv.conf to `nameserver 1.1.1.1`18:02
lunariokreyren: why?18:02
lunarioshouldnt it be my router's ip?18:02
kreyrenlunario, i don't think that would be related to temporary failure resolving18:04
kreyrenthat indicates DNS issue18:04
kreyrenor it always did on my end O.o18:04
kreyrenor i guess you can try the specific IP http://ix.io/2plj18:05
kreyrenthis is output from `dig +short deb.devuan.org`18:05
onefangUsing the IPs in your sources list wont help.18:07
kreyrenonefang, true, but it will prove it being a DNS issue18:07
lunariook, i will wait an hour and check if the problem persists; if yes, i'll change the nameserver. thanks for your help so far!18:09
kreyrenlunario, i woudn't wait :p18:10
* kreyren is sad that `dpkg --get-selections < world` doesn't work18:13
kreyrenAPT::Build-Essensial is apparently a thing though18:16
kreyrenAHHH i just spent 15 minutes debugging preferences and i had `Pin;` instead of `Pin:`18:30
kreyren-.-18:30
onefangI spent many hours yesterday wondering what it was I broke this time with my Syslinux EFI experiments, I had named a file .EFK instead of .EFI.  lol18:31
onefangAnd most of a day coz I was using an AMD64 kernel with an 686 user space, yet it almost worked.18:33
fsmithred lunario are you using apt or apt-get to update?18:34
fsmithredif this is your first update since beowulf went stable, you'll get an error. Use 'apt update' and answer yes when it asks.18:34
kreyrenyaay my pinning works as expected18:46
lunariofsmithred: i was using apt-get... but now it actually all works fine again20:19
fsmithredoh, good20:19
Garb0So, how good is beowulf right now?21:13
Garb0is it 'good enough' or pretty much polished?21:14

syco-i get a 404 too here21:17
onefangGarb0: check the IRC title, it says "(Beowulf 3.0 stable, ASCII 2.1 old-stable)"21:18
minnesotagsI just updated my DNS to be sure. This is NOT a problem on my end.21:18
syco-its not a DNS problem since it gives a 40421:18
onefangThree different mirror checking servers are not having that problem though.21:18
minnesotagsI'm looking at the first mirror checker (borta.devuan.dev) and it IS showing 3 fails for deb.devuan.org21:19
onefangNot for the IP 195.85.215.180 though.21:20
bsati lost ability to login to X session on devuan beowulf box21:21

minnesotagsCrap.21:22
bsatelogind is installed21:22
bsathow do i regenerate the .Xauthority21:23
minnesotagsYeah beowulf works better.21:24
bsatmkauth, ok21:24
onefangAnd borta showing timeouts when the other two are not showing timeouts is why we have three mirror checking servers, borta was having the timeout problem locally.21:26

minnesotagsI mean ^\21:37
bsatit's there fsmithred  - is /etc/systemd needed?21:43

bsati have palemoon without dbus built for aarch64  and it is happy warm orange glowy21:50
james1138Heads up Bsat if you are not already aware... Palemoon does not support at this time DRM, so using it to watch stuff like Hulu or NetFlix is a no-go.22:16
MinceRgood22:17
bsatdon't watch hulu or netflix22:17
bsat:)22:17
MinceRDRM doesn't belong on the web22:17
MinceRand netfucks should never have had the opportunity to help kill the web22:17
bsatthis better to go in #debianfork22:17
nemois palemoon actually maintained by devuan? O_o22:18
bsatno, but i have happyfun stripped down builds22:18
bsatfor aarch6422:18
nemoMinceR: the ichor starts out black, but warms to orange22:18
bsatafter you werfs enough flammens, everything glows a happy orange22:19
nemook. I was gonna say, that seems like kind of a big risk on the part of the devuan folks22:19
bsatwhy22:19
bsatyou just can't brand a changed/derivitave build 'pale moon'22:20
bsatcall it bsat moon or devuan star22:20
onefangPale Moon is a fork of FireFox, but it isn't in Debian or Devuan package repos.22:20
nemoonefang: yeah, a fork based off of a firefox from 25 releases ago.  and hard enough / impossible for debian/devuan to ensure security patching of firefox which is why they mostly offload it to upstream22:21
