tkfsmithred: I forgot to mention, you need to kexec -l a kernel (it can be the current kernel) and initrd (ditto) and cmdline (--reuse-cmdline) before the kexec -e00:01
nemohm. what's the default devuan init script updater? you know, the thingy that uses $network whatnot.00:06
nemoI'm blanking. it's been a while.00:07
nemoI know, ironic for someone using devuan00:07
nemobut I've gotten in habit of doing a lot of stuff manually00:07
nemothe thing that reads INIT INFO00:07
nemoahh lsbinit right00:08
nemoand update-rc.d I guess00:10
nemobut... why does it say the start/stop runlevels are empty. wth00:10
nemoI ran that, and just assumed I was running wrong tool since it failed to parse it00:10
gnarfaceupdate-rc.d [basename] defaults00:13
gnarface?00:13
gnarfaceit's supposed to work, people like sysv-rc-conf more, but usually i just edit the symlinks by hand00:14
Hurgotron*reads twitter* zfs on Devuan? oh wow.00:17
nemognarface: yeah. I'm used to doing that too00:17
nemognarface: it's so weird. tomcat8 as reference. update-rc.d tomcat8 defaults no problem00:21
nemognarface: this new script. insserv: warning: current start runlevel(s) (empty) of script `dataserver.sh` overrides LSB defaults (2 3 4 5).00:21
nemoeven though the INIT INFO section looks identical00:22
nemoman insserv00:22
gnarfacehmmm00:22
nemoit looks identical to the insserv man page aaagh00:23
gnarfacei'm not sure what's missing00:26
nemoscrewit00:26
nemorename 's/04/99/' */dataserver.sh00:26
nemoissue was it was starting it before network00:26
gnarfaceoh, well was network listed in your LSB header?00:27
nemoyes00:27
gnarfacehmm, yea weird00:27
gnarfacei wonder if it would have worked if you ran it like this instead though:  update-rc.d [basename] enable 234500:27
nemoI did that, and it worked00:27
nemobut it called it 0400:27
nemowhich is what it had done before and was clearly a problem00:28
gnarfaceoh, hmm00:28
nemosince it errored on startup due to inability to connect to database00:28
gnarfaceright00:28
rwpnemo, I think what I would call the init script updater is "insserv -v" which renumbers the numbers and symlinks as directed.01:42
rwpAs directed means (among other things) that if a symlink is a K it stays a K and so forth.  If removed it stays removed.  But if present it will renumber per dependencies.01:43
rwpThe update-rc.d of course is in package postinst scripts to set up the initial symlink in the first place.  So the two parts work together on it.01:43
Kingsycan I install go 1.16 on devuan? looks like apt has 1.1501:44
KingsyI'll just install it manually for now. but it would be good to know if there is a more up to date version thats packaged.01:53
bb|hcbKingsy: https://pkginfo.devuan.org/cgi-bin/policy-query.html?c=package&q=golang&x=submit01:55
bb|hcbThere is a backport of 2.17 for chimaera01:55
Kingsyis using backports stable enough?02:00
fsmithredit's recommended that you use backports selectively. Only get what you need, because everything in backports does not get tested all together. Things get tested individually.02:04
fsmithredso it should work at least as well as installing it manually.02:04
fsmithredand the package manager will know about it.02:05
bb|hcbBackports are with lower prio than the main repo, so doing "apt -t chimaera-backports install whatever" will only install whatever you need from there. That is much better than install from source because it will get updates, also on next stable backports may be disabled02:08
JTechnohello friends08:26
JTechnoI used to use debian testing as my daily os, is it possible to do so with daedalus?08:27
raindodgerLeft after only 11 minutes without an answer? What a n00b08:54
raindodgerlol08:54
