xrogaanto subscribe, do I need to add a subject to the mail?00:00
xrogaanLeePen: I did receive the mail.00:07
LeePenGood. I sent that to 376-submitter@bugs.d.o, so it seems OK.00:08
xrogaanI sent a mail to 276-subscribe@bugs.d.o, Apparently I need to receive a confirmation email, but just like debian's bts I don't receive the confirmation.00:10
xrogaanI may be eaten by my ISP, because they are empty messages00:11
LeePenWhen did you send the subscribe request?00:12
xrogaanthis one I just did 10 minutes ago00:13
xrogaanI simply realized that I never received any confirmation from debian's bts.00:13
xrogaanif you are able to tell if you received the subscribe request, that'd be great :)00:13
LeePenxrogaan: 276-subscription email is received.00:18
xrogaanhuh00:20
xrogaanyeah, sent a email with a subject to the debian's bts and I just received the confirmation request. Still waiting on devuan though.00:23
g4570nhi, about d-i, the problem with the paths was solved, the 404 error that I commented the other day?00:38
g4570nThese 2 servers work properly the creation of the ISO: espejito.fder.edu.uy and devuan.m10k.jp, but in the others not, why is that? They are not all synchronized with the same data.00:41
LeePenxrogaan: I will check the logs again in the morning.00:46
xrogaanMight need to have a body/subject for the system to acknowledge the message00:46
LeePenbeowulf mini.iso and netboot are now in the repository.01:59
LeePenhttps://pkgmaster.devuan.org/devuan/dists/beowulf/main/installer-${ARCH}/current/images/01:59
g4570ncool, thanks02:08
fsmithredI'm finding several mini.isos of different sizes. What's the difference?02:18
g4570nfsmithred: where? here: https://pkgmaster.devuan.org/devuan/dists/beowulf/main/installer-amd64/current/images/netboot/02:25
fsmithrednetboot/mini.iso, netboot/gtk/mini.iso, cdrom/gtk/mini.iso02:25
fsmithredthat's for amd6402:26
fsmithredfor i386, just the first two02:26
fsmithrednetboot is for pxe?02:28
golinuxPad for this week's meet is here: https://pad.dyne.org/code/#/2/code/edit/+5ZH1NSY3krBpXoBl0Cmvwb7/02:41
g4570nLeePen: this path: https://pkgmaster.devuan.org/devuan/dists/ascii/main/installer-amd64/current/images/cdrom/ will it be active again, or are efforts already concentrated on Beowulf?02:45
gnu_srs1LeePen: I sent my bug replies to nnn@bugs.d.o not submitter-nnn@bugs.d.o09:46
LeePengnu_srs1: Yes, that is fine. I just used that for a test so it didn't clutter the bug log.11:20
LeePeng4570n: Yes, I can look at restoring it.11:21
gnu_srs1LeePen: How come the bug submitter did not get my reply??11:22
LeePenI don't know. But the logs show it was sent.11:22
gnu_srs1Additionally: I get several copies for every reply to a bug, too noisy.11:22
LeePenWhich package? eudev?11:23
gnu_srs1Maybe we should create a separate mail address for "Devuan Devs, etc" (and unite the name) to not clutter devuan-dev?11:24
gnu_srs1Yes, eudev #39211:24
LeePenWell that is because you are not listed as the maintainer. If you want to be I will change it and only you will receive the copies.11:25
gnu_srs1Well, the maintainer is Devuan Dev Team <devuan-dev@lists.dyne.org> and I am one of the uploaders.11:44
gnu_srs1As for plenty of other packages with various Dev* names with the same email address :(11:45
LeePenYes, that is beacuse nobody has stepped forward to take them on personally.11:47
gnu_srs1Again, unify the name and create a separate mailing list for the maintainers, i.e. all uploaders of packages.11:49
gnu_srs1E.g. Devuan Maintainers <devuan-maintainers@lists.devuan.org>11:49
LeePenThis was discussed at the meeting last week. Why don't you come along on Thursday at 2030UTC and join in the discussion?11:51
LeePenxrogaan: Looking at debbugs more closely, I don't think bug subscription has ever been implemented in Devuan's BTS.12:27
LeePenI am looking into what is required to set it up.12:27
xrogaanoh, ok12:28
Evilhammaybe it's time to start doing SMTP? :-D12:48
* Evilham throws in not-so-random proposal12:49
LeePenEvilham: You are absolutely right. The whole email setup is very clunky and inflexible.12:52
* Evilham nods12:53
LeePenEvilham: Will you set it up for us?12:53
LeePenPlease?12:53
LeePen;)12:53
Evilhamsure, I can sketch sth so we can comment on it and actually do the deed when it's been reviewed and a VM has been provided12:55
LeePenGreat!12:57
LeePenfsmithred: I can't find any good information on the differences between the different mini.isos.12:58
LeePenThe only thing I have noticed is that gtk/mini.iso has speech synthesis.12:59
EvilhamLeePen: do I remember badly that the "ansible" discussion reached nothing particular again?13:12
golinuxEvilham: Regarding ansible . . . Bernard as disappeared no communication maybe a month.  Seems he was just passing through . . .17:59
golinuxas > has17:59
golinuxI can't even remember what his nick was . . .18:00
fsmithredbeerbelot18:04
Evilhamalright18:05
golinuxRiiiiight . . .18:05
fsmithredBeerbelott18:06
fsmithredI dd'd amd64 server and desktop isos to usb sticks21:41
fsmithredthey boot on uefi hardware, but when I get into the installer, the keyboard no longer works21:42
rrqfsmithred: try console=ttyS0 perhaps? or nomodeset? or vga=785 (or something)?21:53
rrqI fixed the badly named efi boot file for amd64 and have efi working  on qemu, both i386 and amd6421:54
rrqit can't have "-vga std" though; works with "-vga qxl"21:56
rrqotoh working bare metal is more important21:56
rrqfsmithred: waking up :) let me pack up a new one with all the isolinux modules22:05
rrqor did I mean "grub modules" .. they are all there, but only some insmod-ed22:11
fsmithredI tried 'insmod keyboard' and it tells me it can't find x86_64-efi/keyboard.mod22:25
fsmithredbut I can find it22:27
rrqta. I start exploring tonight. I'm leaning towards scrapping grub and just share isolinux (syslinux) .. don't know if that's feasable though23:19
rrqfeasible23:21
fsmithredif you can figure out how to do efi with isolinux23:23
fsmithredI've never done that23:24
golinuxIsn't this a little late in our release cycle to be reinventing the wheel?23:58
