03:01.30csmallDoes Devuan offer an unstable branch?
03:08.31gnarfaceyes
03:08.39gnarfacedevuan ceres tracks debian sid
03:09.29csmallExcellent! So I could install Devuan ceres and basically have a sid/unstable install without systemd?
03:10.36golinuxcsmall: It's recommended to start with jessie and work your way up
03:11.42csmallOK. So install jessie and change sources.list to ceres followed by an apt-get upgrae && apt-get dist-upgrade.
03:12.08csmallExciting. I just heard of the project and thought I was stuck with systemd if I wanted o keep Debian
03:14.03gnarfacecsmall: wait wait
03:14.26gnarfacecsmall: start with jessie, upgrade to *ascii* (testing) and THEN *ceres* (unstable)
03:14.49csmallOK. Tht's what I did with Debian as well.
03:14.57gnarfacecsmall: as with debian, skipping a release during upgrade is unsupported, as is downgrading - it might work, mostly, most of the time, but when it doesn't, it'll be too late for you to undo
03:15.31csmallI have a laptop with really new hardware and event getting sid running was a bit of a pain but if Devuan is just mirroring Debian then I think I will be OK.
03:15.44csmall~even
03:16.02gnarfacecsmall: you can probably just "upgrade" from sid staight over to ceres if that install isn't hosed.
03:16.30gnarfacesome stuff may get removed in the process
03:16.31csmallI have it running great at the moment
03:17.31csmallWould changing sources.list and upgrading to ceres remove systemd and replace it with a normal init?
03:19.37gnarfaceprobably, but if not there's an easy way to force it out with pinning
03:20.59csmallOK. This is great news. I use sid for newer software/rolling etc. Ceres sounds like what I have been looking for. systemd is for the birds.
03:21.41gnarfaceno argument here
03:22.34gnarfacecsmall: i think also a package called 'devuan-baseconf' in the repos still that contains the proper apt pinning rule
03:22.53gnarfacehttps://devuan.org/os/documentation/dev1fanboy/Ceres-without-Systemd
03:23.09csmallgnarface: OK. Thanks man!
03:23.45gnarfacethat one does the job, but i'm paranoid so i made one a little more defensively: http://paste.debian.net/975832/
03:23.55gnarfaceno problem csmall, good luck :)
03:24.34csmallgnarface: Not a bad idea.
03:29.35csmallgnarface: Do you know if GNOME depens on systemd in Debian?
03:29.43csmall~depends
03:33.55gnarfacecsmall: it does afaik, but i think some work has been done to make it work in devuan without it, there are only minor regressions (i think it can't hibernate or show temperatures and such)
03:34.17gnarfacecsmall: i'm taking off for dinner, but i'll probably be back in a a few hours

14:44.49timelessok, after a lot of prodding (and installing rsyslog), i now have mariadb running-- not quite sure what got it working
14:45.20timelessmy solution to the lesspipe.sh was to write an alias in ~/.bash_profile: `alias lxc-attach='LESSOPEN= lxc-attach '`
14:46.10timelessthat prevents the rhel6 LESSOPEN var from transiting the lxc boundary into my debian/devuan world where less doesn't cooperate with `LESSOPEN=||/usr/bin/lesspipe.sh %s`

17:51.46DocScrutinizer05for obvious reasons, in real life neither adding RAM nor disabling swap nor avoiding concurrent processes that hog is a feasible option

20:01.21allan_windHow do I evaluate how Devuan is going?
20:05.39Sleakerset some criteria and see if it meets them
20:06.59allan_windHow many ppl are working on devuan vs debian?  Really, trying to get an idea if Devuan is going to be around in a few years
20:07.42Sleakerhttps://devuan.org/os/team/
20:09.01allan_windso 20ish ppl?
20:09.25Sleakershrugs.
20:11.08Sleakerin retrospect the debian team has a similar number of leads/technical group heading it.
20:11.42Sleakerallan_wind: that's just listed as who helps run things.
20:17.52allan_windhttps://lists.dyne.org/lurker/message/20170706.121900.cb943fe3.en.html is an interesting data point
20:22.31allan_windFunny, I don't run Gnome and come to hate systemd so this should be my tribe :-)
20:23.45zyliwaxfwiw devuan is currently #46 in distrowatch's 6-month ranking
20:24.06buZzw00p
20:24.57buZzallan_wind: join us and make odds of it living for more years higher
20:26.10allan_windcan you migrate from debian stretch?
20:27.05buZzi think so yeah
20:29.17allan_windso update sources.list to devuan.org then dist-upgrade?  Sorry, not finding any obvious docs
20:30.07allan_wind#41 last 7 days :-)
20:30.47zyliwaxmigration guide >> https://git.devuan.org/dev1fanboy/Upgrade-Install-Devuan/wikis/devuan-talk-version
20:31.06allan_windsweet, thx zyliwax
20:31.19KatolaZallan_wind: dunno if it works seamlessly from stretch....
20:31.27zyliwaxjessie is stable, ascii is testing, ceres is unstable
20:31.28KatolaZwe have tested jessie->jessie extensively
20:31.37zyliwaxallan_wind: my pleasure
20:31.42KatolaZbut not much stretch->ascii
20:31.50KatolaZso there might be issues and bumps
20:33.15allan_windhow often does ceres break?  Same as unstable or better?
20:34.20zyliwaxmy understanding is that ascii and ceres are still being decoupled from systemd
20:35.00allan_winddecoupled as in not systemd-free is fine, but decoupled as in not suitable to run day to day then no good
20:35.35zyliwaxi couldn't answer whether it's good for day-to-day use since i use devuan jessie
20:35.35allan_winddoes that mean, btw, that there was a 2nd fork of jeesie and whatever unstable was for the next releases?
20:36.19zyliwaxbut it still has lots of packages that (probably unnecessarily) depend on libsystemd0
20:36.38zyliwaxallan_wind: pretty sure there is only one release of devuan jessie (but with several repos, e.g. -backports, -contrib)
20:37.04zyliwaxmaybe repo isn't the right word to use here but i trust that you know what i mean or will ask to clarify :)
20:37.06allan_windso jessie -> jessie is the way to go?
20:37.39zyliwaxprobably the safest route yes, it was very seamless on the machine i gave that particular treatment
20:38.03zyliwaxotherwise installing fresh is an excellent way to go
20:38.31zyliwaxcoming from chroot-based installs, i like the debootstrap method of installation myself (which is what i used for my fresh devuan jessie install)

20:40.58allan_windI have 2 hosts on jessie scheduled for upgrade and reinstall respectively for stretch and 2 on stretch and kinda need them all on the same os/version to make it easiest for me to manage

20:44.07allan_windI could reinstall the two stretch hosts, I guess, but one is skylake so requires fairly new kernel and I don't think 3.16 would boot
20:44.48allan_wind(4.4 or better I think is required)
20:44.48zyliwaxi'm pretty sure you can get a more recent kernel from backports?
20:45.06allan_windyeah, but is there an installer with 4.4 or better kernel?
20:46.07allan_windmight even be 4.7.  I was not able to install (debian) jessie on skylake
20:47.28zyliwaxyeah i'm seeing 4.9 available in backports
20:47.57zyliwaxi have not used the formal installer so i'm not sure how you'd go about integrating the new kernel into the install process
20:50.23allan_windthx for helping
20:50.57zyliwaxmy pleasure
20:51.05zyliwaxhopefully someone can be of more help lol
20:51.22allan_windany idea when ascii might land?
20:51.32allan_windmight be a better jump off point for me re kernel version

20:52.57allan_windsorry, I don't mean to be rude as I know devuan jessie just landed
20:53.21fsmithredI made a live iso with backports kernel you could try
20:53.48fsmithredhttp://distro.ibiblio.org/refracta/files/experimental/devuan_jessie_amd64_bpo_desktop-live-20170522_1240.iso
20:54.03allan_windgreat, I will that a whirl
20:54.10fsmithredyou probably don't want to install on the servers with that
20:54.23fsmithredbut at least you'll know if it works
20:54.41allan_windroger that
20:54.52fsmithredI also made a refracta-ascii no-X iso, but it's labeled "pre-alpha"
20:55.09fsmithredascii is not ready yet
20:55.55fsmithredworks fine if you don't try to install too much
20:56.19allan_windany idea when?  weeks, months, years
20:56.19fsmithredI'm guessing months
20:56.57allan_windJust subscribed to dng and I will that iso a whirl
20:57.04fsmithredonce a few key packages get fixed, there should be some official isos
20:57.17allan_windhow do you join the party?
20:57.30fsmithredfind me here or at d1g and let me know how it works out
20:58.04allan_windwill do

21:06.31zyliwaxsorry i've asked this before, but i'm curious if removing pulseaudio deps are a priority for devuan
21:06.43fsmithredno, not a priority
21:06.47fsmithredjust systemd deps
21:06.50zyliwaxfair enough
21:06.53fsmithredhowever...
21:07.16fsmithredlots of people who use devuan are more than happy to get rid of pulseaudio and not use it
21:08.00fsmithredso apulse is now in the repo, and you can use that to get new firefox to work
21:08.00zyliwaxheh i will be ditching firefox as soon as xul stops working with it :)

21:11.46csmallMan, systemd is like a cancer. I didn't realize some of the software that seems to have ties to it. Like GNOME
21:11.50zyliwaxyeah i will miss vimperator, i am not sure what they plan on doing (some talk about trying to become a webextension last i read their git)
21:11.56zyliwax57 will kill xul
21:12.05golinuxallan_wind: There is a list of pkgs needing loibsystemd0 decontamination here: https://lists.dyne.org/lurker/message/20170710.211740.2ddd525a.en.html
21:14.24allan_windwhat does decontamination mean?  strip out calls to systemd stuff?
21:15.33fsmithredI think usually it means compiling using "--without-systemd" but I'm no expert on that.
21:18.30golinuxGratuitous libsystemd0 dependencies
21:18.30golinuxRemoving them is 'decontamination'
21:19.08golinuxOf course there is possibly other systemd stuff also.
21:19.45golinuxThose were the pkgs that amprolla flagged.
21:20.11bluemarlindamn that's quite long list
21:20.50golinuxFor ascii.  The list also included backports, ceres and jessie (which probably isn't worth the efforts at this point)
21:21.58golinuxYes, it is long.  About 150 of them.  We need maintainers to adopt packages and transition them to each new release.
21:22.18allan_wind150 maintainers is a package per person, no biggie :-)
21:25.38golinuxOr 10 doing 15 each . . . ;)
21:25.38fsmithredwe might even have 10

22:47.02fsmithredTaboZ, yeah, I looked at that page. That's the one I said is old, so I don't know if it's still accurate.
22:47.19fsmithredand the fact that it's telling you to pull stuff from ubuntu ppa seems odd
22:48.49gnarfacewell brief googling suggests LXD is a product of Canonical, Inc.   makes perfect sense to me that they'd want to encourage indiscriminate installation of packages your distro hasn't audited for backdoors
22:48.52TaboZyep
