| gnu_srs | LeePen: I will, give me some time though. Do I need to create a new branch and push to it? | 00:11 |
|---|---|---|
| LeePen | gnu_srs: Yes. Just fork it from suites/unstable. New version number (maybe 3.2.9-7~beowulf1) in changelog with beowulf as the distribution. | 11:23 |
| LeePen | Maybe you would also promote yourself to Maintainer (as you really are!)? | 11:24 |
| LeePen | Thanks | 11:24 |
| plasma41 | Is the devuan-baseconf package still used? If not, can we drop it from beowulf and later? | 22:21 |
| fsmithred | I think it's no longer used. Pretty sure I'm the last one who touched that on gdo. | 22:22 |
| fsmithred | plasma41, did it get installed somewhere? | 22:25 |
| plasma41 | I still have it installed from ASCII. It was marked as manually installed, so it was never autoremoved. AFAICT, nothing in Beowulf depends on it. | 22:27 |
| fsmithred | yeah, I thought we purged all the connections to it | 22:27 |
| fsmithred | it's not in the live isos | 22:27 |
| fsmithred | therefore it shouldn't get installed with a default desktop install | 22:28 |
| plasma41 | I was running debfoster yesterday and discovered devuan-baseconf was still installed. | 22:28 |
| fsmithred | do you also have a /data directory? | 22:29 |
| fsmithred | I think it was /data/etc/apt/apt.conf.d/05... | 22:30 |
| plasma41 | Oddly no. I saw that there is such a directory in the filepath for one of the files supposedly in the package, but I don't have that directory, despite the package being installed. | 22:31 |
| LeePen | We can't remove it from the repos. | 22:32 |
| plasma41 | LeePen: Oh? | 22:32 |
| LeePen | We tried, but it is a hardcoded dependency in old versions | 22:33 |
| LeePen | of debootstrap ( ascii and earlier, I think) | 22:33 |
| LeePen | and breaks them | 22:33 |
| plasma41 | But can we at least remove it from the repos for Beowulf and later? | 22:34 |
| LeePen | No because you can use the ascii debootstrap to build at beowulf or later chroot. | 22:35 |
| LeePen | Removing from the repos breaks that. | 22:35 |
| LeePen | bbiab | 22:36 |
| plasma41 | So we're stuck keeping devuan-baseconf in every future release for time immemorial? | 22:40 |
| fsmithred | just for as long as the old versions of debootstrap are still around | 22:55 |
| LeePen | plasma41: you should be able to remove it if it bothers you. | 23:32 |
