devuanconsumer@rwp how can I do this?00:28
gnarfacedevuanconsumer: if you just uninstall the meta-package (linux-image-amd64 for example on amd64 machines) it'll stop upgrading your kernel automatically during upgrades00:37
gnarfaceyou could pin it too but that's not always necessary00:38
gnarfaceif you just manually call for installation of the actual specific versioned kernel package, not the meta-packge, it'll mark it as manually installed and also not automatically remove it00:39
gnarfaceyou could also do it though apt pinning i think00:39
gnarfacefyi it usually doesn't remove the last few minor revisions of the kernel at least, if you want to go back it's probably still there and you can probably just pick it from the grub menu at boot00:40
devuanconsumerthank you!01:20
FatPhilso, does Linux stand for Linux Is Now Usually XXXXed?08:35
buZzFatPhil: what?14:23
systemdleteIf I wanted to use proxmox, would I get it from their repos, or does devuan/debian have it already?22:26
golinuxsystemdlete: Ask and ye shall know: https://pkginfo.devuan.org/cgi-bin/policy-query.html22:28
systemdleteit seems to be in contrib?22:28
golinuxThat is rrq's crystal ball and it works really well. :D22:29
systemdletebut that web page does not return anything for "*proxmox*" except some python APIs for it.22:30
systemdletebut a page on proxmox seems to indicate that it is in contrib (I think)22:32
systemdletebut I have contrib set up in my sources, so I don't know.22:32
systemdleteis the tool (rrq's) set up for chimaera?22:32
golinuxI have no idea what it is or what it does so can't help further.22:32
systemdletenp, golinux22:32
golinuxIt is set up for all Devuan22:32
systemdleteoh, oh22:33
systemdleteI see now22:33
systemdleteThey have a repo.list file for me to use   :)22:33
systemdleteso... nvm22:33
systemdletenothing to do with contrib, other than maybe proxmox needs it for their dependencies perhaps22:34
