| arachnopavel | Hello. What's the status of beowulf? Is it stilll being developed? Can't find any info about it on devuan.org, even though I could swear there were some. | 10:50 |
|---|---|---|
| enyc | arachnopavel: preression i got is not that far from release, many users already upgraded to etc | 10:51 |
| arachnopavel | enyc: which presentation? Could you post a link, please? Yeah, I've upgraded too. In fact, did that many months ago, and even built a custom iso. | 10:53 |
| gnu_srs1 | arachnopavel: If you are running ascii you can easily upgrade: s/ascii/bewoulf/ in sources.list (apt-get upgrade, apt-get dist-upgrade) | 10:54 |
| enyc | arachnopavel: no presentaiotn, i meant "impression I got"[...] | 10:55 |
| arachnopavel | enyc: ah. :) | 10:55 |
| enyc | ** NB: looking back from above, can sothese points be put in a new draft release-notes? we want to check new users get right polkit and so-on, and upgradedrs have the 'snags to watch out for' | 10:56 |
| enyc | i'd like to help QA/read those netes / etc | 10:56 |
| arachnopavel | gnu_srs1: yeah, I did, many months ago. Now I just wonder if beowulf isn't being cancelled in favor of ceres (maybe). | 10:56 |
| gnu_srs1 | ceres is unstable (i.e. debian sid) and will always be ceres (no release name) | 10:58 |
| gnu_srs1 | Admittedly, I don't know the name of next release after beowulf. It should start with a c though. Anybody? | 11:06 |
| arachnopavel | gnu_srs1: so, to make it clear: beowulf is still going to be the next stable, just like buster in debian? | 11:07 |
| kilobyte | arachnopavel: yeah | 11:07 |
| arachnopavel | Thanks! | 11:07 |
| gnu_srs1 | yes | 11:08 |
| gnu_srs1 | The next release would correspond to Debian Bullseye = Devuan ?? | 11:09 |
| kilobyte | IIRC someone gave a name, indeed starting with c | 11:12 |
| kilobyte | can't remember, but grepping ^c through the list of biggest minor planets would limit the suspects :) | 11:12 |
| JackFrost | I don't know past releases, so I don't know if Ceres is old. | 11:13 |
| kilobyte | don't worry, even most DDs don't know what distribution rc-buggy is :) | 11:15 |
| JackFrost | With Debian it's always the numbers I don't remember. | 11:16 |
| fsmithred | chimaera | 11:43 |
| LeePen | AFAIU ceres will stay as unstable (like debian sid) and the release based on bullseye is chimaera. | 11:44 |
| LeePen | fsmithred: beat me to it! | 11:44 |
| amesser | LeePen: Some days ago I was wondering if/when the tomcat9 package will be available for beowulf? Was trying/testing some java web servicess. The package is in Debian but missing in Beowulf. I think it has a tight coupling to systemd. | 11:54 |
| LeePen | amesser: Yes, in fact I can see a pending bug about it. | 11:56 |
| LeePen | Do you fancy forking a package? | 11:56 |
| amesser | Sry, I have been non contributing to devuan for a while now. What you mean with "fancy forking". I think we need to fork tomcat9 and provide an own version if we want to have it in Devuan. Its too tightly intgerated with systemd. | 11:58 |
| LeePen | Yes, so somebody (preferably who uses it) needs to fork a version for devuan and remove the systemd integration. | 11:59 |
| LeePen | I don't use it, so it is hard for me to test. | 12:00 |
| amesser | Well actually decided not to use any of the webapps so my "need" has disappeared. But, I could give it a try to package it for Devuan. I can test it with these webapps: Actually I was evaluating "airsonic" and similar stuff for photo management for use with my home-server | 12:04 |
| gnu_srs1 | golinux: Maybe the web pages should be updated: https://devuan.org/os/releases only mentions jssie, ascii, ceres (and experimental) | 12:16 |
| golinux | FYI . . . there is currently a discussion of tomcat on the forum at https://dev1galaxy.org/viewtopic.php?id=3249 | 17:42 |
| golinux | gnu_srs1: Website updates are on my list. Currently dealing with debbugs and pkginfo theming. | 17:43 |
| * fsmithred is rearranging hardware. back soon (I hope) | 17:52 | |
| amesser | LeePen: FYI: I was able to build tomcat9 here now, it also still ships with initscript. I'll do some tests tomorrow. | 22:03 |
| LeePen | amesser: great. | 22:10 |
