Centurion_DanKatolaZ: you around?08:12
Centurion_DanCan you tell me if the CC mirrors consistently push ppc64el??08:13
KatolaZCenturion_Dan: ?09:07
KatolaZCenturion_Dan: we don't make any difference among archs09:08
KatolaZit's plain rsync09:08
KatolaZthat's not depending on choose-mirror09:09
KatolaZ:\09:09
Centurion_Danyeah but choose-mirrors Mirrors.masterlist specifies the archs that each listed mirror provides -  so the short answer is yes.09:12
Centurion_DanKatolaZ: all good, I've patched and rebuilt choose-mirror so that should fix the missing mirrors for ppc64el ;-)09:13
Centurion_DanKatolaZ: I heard of another oddity with ppc64el though, for some reason although it doesn't have efi, the grub installer assuned it is an efi installer... I'm not sure if that's a grub issue or an early installer detection issue09:18
KatolaZI guess it might just be grub09:25
KatolaZare you done with choose-mirror?09:26
KatolaZI will rebuild the mini.iso then09:26
Centurion_Danyeah that would be great thanks ;-)09:27
Centurion_DanI will look into the grub detection routines...09:27
Centurion_DanI think I might just have to update libvirt and run some of my own builds too ;-)09:28
Centurion_DanMulticore.World has prompted a bunch of interest and given me a bit of renewed enthusiasm.  I also found out that RaptorCS have their own cluster of TalosII complete with infiniband and they sound willing - perhaps even keen for us to test Devuan'09:30
Centurion_Danas a cluster OS.09:30
Centurion_DanIf we can prove it as able to sustain a cluster, then it paves the way for digging into the big data and big science ecosystems and perhaps one day get us onto a top 500 super computer ;-D09:32
Centurion_DanBy the way we seem to have inherited a delay in the network service if a configured ethernet port isn't connected.09:34
Centurion_DanI'm sure we have a bug and a patch for that.09:34
KatolaZthat's great news :)09:35

rrqhmm there seems to be an ascii/main upgrade happening.13:02
rrqincluding a libc6 upgrade13:03
rrqbut I'm not sure why I thought ascii/main would remain stable13:12
fsmithred'cause it's supposed to remain stable?13:31
rrqyeah. I think it's a 'stretch point release' causing an 'ascii point release'13:32
fsmithredI'm updating now to check versions13:32
fsmithred2.24-11+deb9u4 in stretch and auto.mirror but not deb.devuan.org.13:38
fsmithredoh, I take that back - that's how it was before the update13:39
rrqthat's libc6, yes; I've had 2.24-11+deb9u3 since some time, and probable that wasn't the original ascii/main either, since ascii-security/main says 2.24-11+deb9u113:41
fsmithredodd that auto.mirror got the update a few days before deb.devuan13:42
rrqI'll have time to dist-upgrade tomorrow, which probably will be a breeze anyhow.13:47
