DRWhiteHi folks, jsut a query.. Devuan 4, is that now SystemD?03:05
golinuxNo way!03:05
golinuxWhat have you been smoking to suggest that?03:05
DRWhiteI did a locate for SystemD and it found SystemD03:06
golinuxThe answer you seek is here: https://dev1galaxy.org/viewtopic.php?id=192503:07
golinuxIt is a cosmetic not a functional annoyance03:07
golinuxActually you would find systemd because SystemD doesn't exist.03:08
DRWhiteSo systemd is there?03:09
fluffywolf"Actually you would find systemd because SystemD doesn't exist."  is that a koan?  :)03:09
DRWhiteYou and others had told me hat devuan would NEVER go systemd...03:10
DRWhiteYet it is there.03:10
DRWhiteI know that tosser says that systemd is linux, which is not true... linux is the kernel, systemd is a process.03:11
DRWhiteSo that thread I jsut don't understand.03:11
fluffywolfthere are files provided by applications for use with systemd, that devuan is not using, and compatability layers to make programs that expect systemd work.  systemd is not there.03:11
DRWhiteOkay, so Devuan has no MicroSoft in it then?03:12
golinux(Maybe too much spiked eggnog in the equation here.)03:12
fluffywolfI do not understand the logic behind that question.03:13
golinuxThere has not been much logic in any of then.03:13
DRWhiteSystemD is a MicroSoft product03:14
golinuxHappy solstice fluffy!03:14
fsmithredwe should not remove systemd service files just as debian should not remove init scripts03:14
fluffywolfis it the solstice already?  I've been working so hard that I have no idea of time.  heh.03:14
fluffywolfbeing a delivery driver during the holdays suck, and this year has sucked twice as bad as any year before.03:15
golinuxPlease take this to #devuan-offtopic03:15
golinuxIt was on Tuesday!03:15
DRWhiteSo the SystemD that I find is just intermediary?03:15
DRWhiteNot actually the MicroSoft product?03:15
fluffywolfyay, that means the days are getting longer!03:15
* fluffywolf hates cold, dark days03:15
golinuxIt is completely harmless.  Just a cosmetic annoyance.03:16
golinuxsystemd comes from RedHat03:17
golinuxnot Microsoft03:17
fsmithredhere's a list of what you cannot install in devuan: https://pkgmaster.devuan.org/bannedpackages.txt03:17
golinuxGood idea to post that.03:18
fsmithredE: Package 'systemd' has no installation candidate03:19
DRWhiteSystemD was created by someone from MS who went to RedHat. that's why I have to ask and find out. Because it was that guy the infiltrated RedHat who creeated SystemD03:20
DRWhiteI'm happy that the version on ther eis definitely not that one.03:20
fsmithredI'm happy that you're happy.03:21
fluffywolfI don't think redhat needs infiltration.03:23
fluffywolfinfiltration implies not being welcomed with open arms.03:23
XenguyGood, glad the (so-called) Dr is gone or I would have suggested he go to hell, like all bad trolls05:41
u4twho?05:43
u4toh ok, i see05:44
u4ti just kinda glased over a(:05:44
XenguyIf I ever catch that troll here while I'm around05:48
XenguyLook out!05:48
u4tXenguy: we could tell him that microsoft windows has posix compliance (:06:18
XenguyHeh06:19
ham5urg_Is there a way to declare all recommends to be depends? I would like to deboostrap a system and test it, if possible. Would make the clean deinstallation much easier.14:55
av6i'm not sure if it'll affect debootstrap, but there's APT::Install-Recommends "yes"; that you can place in a file in /etc/apt/apt.conf.d/ for regular apt/apt-get usage15:13
av6although i think it already is/was the default behavior15:13
xrogaanyes, it should be default behavior17:23

foresterHullo. I am interesting what command to use instead of 'systemctl'? And if I have 'sudo /etc/init.d/zram start', how to make in auto on start up?19:04
foresteron booting19:04
morruthforester:  https://manpages.debian.org/testing/init-system-helpers/update-rc.d.8.en.html - is this what you need?19:16
forestermorruth: I don't know. Will try to understand. Thank you.19:19
fsmithredforester, sysv-rc-conf is another way to turn services on and off. It's easy.19:40
foresterfsmithred: Thank you. I will try.19:40
forestermorruth: I think you was right. Thanks to fsmithred (his link) I find simple example how to use it. Now I am going to reboot and take a look what will happened.19:55
foresterfsmithred: Thanks again. Bye.19:55

used____Yes, but I find it is more terse.20:59
fsmithredbut commands should be the same20:59
used____http://smarden.org/runit/faq.html oem docs I think21:03
used____Honestly, imo, there should have been a 'disable' and 'enable' option instead of ln -s and rm21:03
_hades_super dupa thxs!21:07
