07:20.53_abc_Hello. Moving from wheezy to devuan, step by step, very old machine, drastic upgrade, I have some qustions:
07:21.22_abc_How can I provide libgd.so.2 for jessie? Only libgd.so.3 is present. I tried to install the -dev version, does not seem to do the job.
07:21.50_abc_devuan jessie live desktop bug: zenity -- missing libgnomecanvas-2.so.0
07:22.25_abc_Also, I am trying to test key apps on the old system, while booted into live devuan on a usb stick
07:22.43_abc_This works, running down a long list of todos, but now I hit a snag:
07:24.15_abc_I chrooted into the hdd system and tried to use the usual xauthority + ln -f /tmp/.X11* socket to the chroot. The latter fails, because the hdd is mounted on the running system, i.e. it is not hard linkable. Softlink was tried obviously did not work. ...
07:24.19_abc_... Is there any devuan specific hack for this? Linking a different-mounted chroot to make X11 work in the chroot?

08:42.36_abc_Abstract sockets seem to be supported in the old version (wheezy/etch era). So it might be possible to do what I need. How does one represent a NUL started socket in a server DISPLAY export in the client side environment?

08:44.51_abc_Hmm so in theory if it works it should "just work" without an exported DISPLAY= env var but it does not work in my case. Iow, no DISPLAY= export means error no DISPLAY, with DISPLAY and soft linked /tmp/.X11* socket it also does not work, the ...
08:44.55_abc_... application never starts on screen, it seems to get stuck.

09:20.14_abc_Some distributions have the option to support live-data like that at boot time, into the desktop. Does devuan plan to do such a thing? Add a hook in the boot scripts which checks for a data partition, a magic file on that, and execs it if it exists?
09:20.27_abc_This could be encrypted, but that is not necessary now.

09:46.23hwpplayer1is there a report about it ?
09:46.34_abc_What report?
09:46.57hwpplayer1There should be an article or report about it
09:47.20hwpplayer1When you tell something you need to report it
09:47.30hwpplayer1to the public
09:47.42_abc_Well I never saw such a thing in devuan. I am asking if it will be added? Or if it exists and is perhaps not documented.

13:11.37fsmithredok
13:11.40_abc_fsmithred: I found a ubuntu howto today which does it with syslinux. It is more important to stay completely compatible with a later to-hdd install
13:11.57fsmithredI've never been able to create a second partition on a usb that was imaged with isohybrid
13:12.10fsmithredyeah, I use syslinux
13:12.27_abc_I was! Just fdisk the drive and generate a second partition. On the devuan desktop-live image!
13:12.47_abc_It will not be seen by windows, has to be 1st for that, but this is okay, make it ext2 or 3 and linux will see it fine
13:13.08_abc_Apparently isohybrid has an important option called <just a sec looking>
13:13.31_abc_-parted ? or such? Just a sec indexing.
13:13.43fsmithredok
13:14.04_abc_That option makes the partition table 'standard' i.e. you can operate on it with fdisk after that.
13:14.12fsmithredif you use the unpacked iso method, you can plug the stick into a running system and edit the boot files
13:14.37fsmithredoh, I'll have to try that when I make an iso
13:14.42_abc_No, -partok. See here: https://theartofmachinery.com/2016/04/21/partitioned_live_usb.html
13:15.01_abc_So after that it has a standard partition table too and you can edit it as usual
13:15.26_abc_One thing: verify the media before partitioning since the parted will add data at ONE location in the image and image verify will fail after that.
13:16.23_abc_I checked that the only location where fdisk adds data when creating the partition is exactly in the partition table, over the length of the written image. So cmp(1) can be used with suitable offsets to check the image after writing too.
13:16.26fsmithredthanks for that
13:17.07_abc_I was sort of panicing after a number of crashes with the ub stick did not know if the devuan image took one for the team. So I scripted a cmp script to compare with the image on hdd and it worked.
13:17.39_abc_It's just two calls to cmp, to check before-ptab and after-ptab
13:18.06fsmithredI'll have to see if there's a way to use the -partok option with xorriso - that's what is used to make the isohybrid
13:18.21_abc_The second useful howto I foun is: https://askubuntu.com/questions/423300/live-usb-on-a-2-partition-usb-drive -- this is full of ubuntuisms but the ideas are clear and can be used elsewhere.
13:18.54_abc_fsmithred: since what you published (desktop-live) CAN be fdisk'd I think it already does?!
13:19.18_abc_My laptop keyboard is dying please ignore missing letters it ate for lunch.
13:19.25fsmithredlol, ok
13:19.36fsmithredI usually miss the missing letters anyway
13:19.52_abc_I got new reading glasses so I do not. Groan.
13:20.02fsmithredoh yeah, that's an issue
13:20.20fsmithredanyway, if you want to try refracta2usb, you can download it here - https://sourceforge.net/projects/refracta/files/tools/
13:20.29fsmithredit requires yad
13:20.34_abc_I looked at it before, will not use it now.
13:20.39fsmithredok
13:20.45_abc_yad is installed on devuan and works? I think?
13:20.54fsmithredyeah, it's in the desktop-live
13:20.58_abc_I posted a message about a missing lib today, did you see it?
13:21.04fsmithredno
13:21.07_abc_just a sec
13:21.47_abc_zenity -- missing libgnomecanvas-2.so.0 -- desktop-live
13:22.11_abc_On the same theme: how can one get libgd.so.2 on jessie/devuan? I need it for an old program I have to use?
13:22.48fsmithredchecking...
13:23.04_abc_I tried the usual repos only found libgd-xpm-dev
13:23.20_abc_No trace of libgd itself? Something is not right there imo.
13:23.33fsmithredlibgd2-dev? That's just a virtual package
13:23.43fsmithredalso a libgd-dev which is a real package

13:24.01_abc_But it seems to point at libgd.so.3 ...
13:24.09fsmithredum, one way I've cheated with missing .so files is to make a symlink
13:24.21fsmithredsometimes it works
13:24.21_abc_I am testing programs in an old system using the live boot and chroot.
13:24.31_abc_Yes of course. But before that one asks.
13:27.02fsmithredsorry I don't know the answer
13:27.40fsmithredand zenity doesn't work on the desktop-live?
13:27.40_abc_This is nuts. Searching the logs by nick does not work? https://botbot.me/freenode/devuan/search/?q=abc -> ONE posting by me somewhere? Including today?
13:27.51_abc_fsmithred: zenity says library above missing.
13:27.58_abc_yad works and whiptail works
13:28.08fsmithredweird, zenity was automatically installed
13:28.12_abc_missing is libgnomecanvas-2.so.0
13:28.39_abc_Yeah nothing is perfect. You know, it's much better than other things, devuan as is now.
13:28.42_abc_shudders
13:29.11fsmithredyeah, it reminds me of debian
13:29.33fsmithredmore so than current debian does
13:35.07fsmithred_abc_, zenity is not installed in the dekstop-live
13:35.52_abc_fsmithred: hmm? Wait, maybe my chrooted environment made the zenity on the old system pop up?
13:36.01_abc_Sorry in that case, for the false alarm
13:36.16fsmithrednot sure if that could happen
13:36.36fsmithredwere you also asking about running graphical apps in chroot?
13:36.38_abc_It could, I did really strange things here trying to execute X11 apps from the chrooted mounted old system
13:36.42_abc_Yes
13:37.27fsmithredI've done that with xserver-xephyr
13:37.51fsmithredcan run a whole desktop with that if you want
13:38.30_abc_I want just the apps... specifically on the devuan xserver, to determine major porting steps. I have a list of apps I used on the old system which HAVE to be ported before I move to devuan
13:42.59fsmithredI have no good suggestions. Need to go eat - will be back in a little while.

14:00.05_abc_inerkick_: yes if it boots cleanly into gui
14:00.17_abc_inerkick_: check: wifi works, sound works, network (cable) works
14:00.24_abc_inerkick_: also check suspend to ram works.
14:00.42_abc_If you pass these milestones it is probably okay to install (no warranty)
14:01.02inerkick_ok
14:01.47inerkick_I initially downloaded it, but wasn't working, so downloading it again. Is this enough consider I got a 64bit machine but since I got 2GB ram I'm downloading i386 desktop iso
14:03.48fsmithredinerkick_, in what way did it not work?
14:04.37inerkick_Usage of more RAM
14:04.58fsmithredwhat do you mean?
14:05.19inerkick_I mean I am just wondering if 2GB RAM is enough for working Devuan 64bit OS or should I got for 32bit. Since I do have 64Bit machine, but just 2GB Ram
14:05.58fsmithredI would recommend a minimum of 256mb ram to boot the image to desktop
14:06.09fsmithredadd a bunch more if you want to use a web browser
14:06.40_abc_64 bit devuan boots to desktop on 1GB ram

17:36.37divansantanaIs there an upgrade procedure to ascii? Is it just a simple dist-upgrade once updating sources?
17:37.15divansantanaanother thing, I installed kde desktop via `apt-get install task-kde-desktop` rebooted and logged in and got xfce desktop.
17:37.40*** join/#devuan Artemis3 (~artemis3@190.213.203.75)
17:37.44divansantanaI then had to logout and select kde from the DM. I'm pretty sure it installed xfce in addition to kde.

17:42.05fsmithreddivansantana, did you have any desktop before you installed kde?
17:42.51divansantanaand is running ascii desktop reasonably stable or do I have to run bunch of things post upgrade to sort out the systemd replacement stuff
17:43.29fsmithreddepends on what you install
17:43.54fsmithredI think rsyslog is now fixed and in the repo, so that shouldn't block the upgrade anymore

17:52.56divansantanafsmithred:I'm ok with wicd. I'd prefer to use that then nm and think it's a good idea.
17:53.30fsmithredok, that explains why xfce4-session got installed, but it doesn't explain why kde-workspace didn't get installed instead.

17:53.36fsmithredweird
17:54.31divansantanafsmithred: it could be because it prompted me during install with a DM and I selected the wrong choice(I accidentally hit enter)? Anyway, I'll do a clean up of it later.
17:54.45fsmithredoh, you took lightdm?
17:55.30fsmithreddid you take the default desktop during the initial installation of the system?

19:06.26fsmithredDGMurdockIII, if it goes into Debian, it will be in Devuan (unless it requires systemd)
19:06.55fsmithredif someone wants to maintain it for Devuan, it could possibly get into the repo
19:07.18blinkdogfsmithred: It looks like   src/daemon/systemd/user/meson.build   wants systemd
19:07.21blinkdogsystemd = dependency('systemd', required: true)

19:17.50_abc_Why would a user side media processing system depend on systemd?!
19:18.20_abc_This sounds like a bad plan to me
19:18.23fsmithredmaybe for the new security model that they mention
19:18.33_abc_You mean DRM enforcement, surely?
19:18.55_abc_It's clearly kernel processing aimed. pulse etc cooperation. We know who did those, right?
19:18.56fsmithredI mean only what I say, but I think you probably guessed correctly
19:19.23fsmithredDGMurdockIII, why do you want this? Have you tried it?
19:19.29_abc_"reassuring code development trends for our sponsors and investors"
19:19.43DGMurdockIIIlost of people want it i would
19:20.00_abc_DGMurdockIII: have you used it on anything so far? In what context?
19:20.04blinkdogit looks like the systemd dependency is about managing the media daemon
19:20.35_abc_The political nature of that package imo puts it in the pulseaudio+jack category.
19:21.30_abc_blinkdog: did you look at code? I mean what is this really used for? It is infrastructure for docked containers / flatpaks ? Or used with realtime video acquisition and editing or what?
19:21.49_abc_The former is server/blade function usually, the latter could appear even in android phones soon enough.
19:21.50blinkdogI've cloned it from github and am reviewing the source now

21:43.36aitorso, build jessie in jessie and ascii in ascii :)
21:45.38aitorthe iso includes: palemoon, claws-mail, simple-netaid, pmount (with the usb-pmount.sh and usb-unmount.sh scripts), yad...
21:46.27aitori'll replace udev by vdev, but i need to do some changes in the sources for that
