joergsounds sorta lame to blame also for pulse hickups21:40

brocashelmproblems with upgrading/installing fail2ban, due to ipv6 rules not being "defined". same version on all other machines with zero issues, except this one: https://dpaste.org/gAm9V22:35
hagbardwith the exact identical configuration and rules files?22:58
brocashelmyes22:59
hagbardstrange indeed23:01
hagbardThe Error seems to be a python OSError, originating from the kernel.23:06
hagbardnftables or iptables module not not loaded, or whatever fail2ban is configured to use?23:08
brocashelmhmmm23:21
brocashelmwhat i did was edit sshd.local and defaults-debian.conf to set [sshd] enabled to false, and then it went through23:22
brocashelmthere's also a debian bug report (#1024305) for it: https://bugs.debian.org/cgi-bin/bugreport.cgi?bug=102430523:23
hagbardthat's just about the warning. Thats different from the error.23:24
rwpI upgraded a system from beowulf to chimaera in the last week and hit that same fail2ban allowipv6 Bug#1024305 error too.23:44
rwpBut I was also having python package upgrade dependency problems too.  I had to more forcefully take charge of the python package upgrade.23:45
rwpIn that process I purged fail2ban, completed the rest of the system upgrade, then installed fail2ban back on again.23:45
rwpAfter I completed the upgrade the re-install of fail2ban afterward had no such allowipv6 error!23:46
rwpI found that very strange.  But since it isn't giving me the error I no longer have a test case.23:46
rwpI can only assume that the fail2ban error was somehow related to the incomplete python upgrade that the system was in at that time.23:46
rwpOh!  My chimaera system of course only has fail2ban 0.11.2-2 on it!  My confusion.  I must be confusing it with my Ceres system.23:48
rwpMy Ceres system still needs the allowipv6 = auto addition to be quiet.  I put it in /etc/fail2ban/fail2ban.d/local.conf so that it would not modify the conffile and would not need merging in the future.23:49
rwpSorry for adding this noise due to my confusion.23:49
rwpThe rest of what I reported about python in the beowulf to chimaera upgrade and purging fail2ban and reinstall was accurate though.23:50
