| sinetek | hi folks, i've been using ZFS + devuan for a few months now, and it requires one patch to `zfs-linux` by default to work well with devuan. i'd like to get this merged in the project, is this something that's possible? | 05:08 |
|---|---|---|
| sinetek | the issue is from upstream as they removed the openrc init file, and hard blocked openrc | 05:09 |
| sinetek | zfs itself works with openrc, it's used in Gentoo. and installing works OK but it removes openrc. | 05:12 |
| rrq | sinetek: you're alking about zfsutils-linux ? | 05:25 |
| sinetek | yes! | 05:27 |
| rrq | what does "hard blocked openrc" mean ? | 05:27 |
| sinetek | ok what i'm asking is 2 things: | 05:28 |
| sinetek | 1) in debian/control, there's "Breaks: openrc," | 05:28 |
| sinetek | 2 | 05:28 |
| sinetek | 2) in debian/patches/series, the first patch can be enabled for the openrc file | 05:29 |
| rrq | ah; the chimaera (unstable) version | 05:29 |
| sinetek | correct, i don't run the stable devuan, i assume it's the same-ish | 05:30 |
| rrq | the beowulf version 0.7.12-2+deb10u2 doesn't claim "Breaks: openrc" | 05:31 |
| sinetek | technically 'ceres' is what i tested and run this on | 05:31 |
| sinetek | 0.7.12-2+deb10u2 is way too old, the current in ceres is 0.8.4, that one has support for encryption. | 05:31 |
| rrq | right. while LeePen counts sheep, I'll make his point: zfsutil-linux is not forked. Perhaps you'd be in a position to maintain such? | 05:33 |
| sinetek | absolutely | 05:33 |
| rrq | (then he points to some useful instructions... I'll see if I can find them) | 05:33 |
| sinetek | sounds good, pointers is exactly what i was hoping to get, and i'm fine maintaining it | 05:34 |
| rrq | https://git.devuan.org/devuan/documentation/src/branch/master/maintainers | 05:34 |
| rrq | LeePen's hours start at about 2 hours from now, and then we try to have him in work for about 18 hours when possible | 05:38 |
| rrq | plus overtime when needed ;) | 05:39 |
| sinetek | whoa | 05:39 |
| rrq | well, not really, but that's about his timezone | 05:41 |
| LeePen | sinetek: Do you know why the openrc patch has been disabled in Debian? | 10:37 |
| LeePen | This sounds like something Debian should fix. | 10:37 |
| Joril | Sorry, how much delay is there (on average) between Debian releasing a security fix and Devuan mirrors getting it? I'm looking at Thunderbird 68.12.0 on security.debian.org released on the 29th, for example | 10:50 |
| LeePen | Joril: should be the next amprolla run for pkgmaster.d.o. Then it depends on how often your mirror syncs. | 10:58 |
| Joril | LeePen: I was looking directly at http://pkgmaster.devuan.org/merged/dists/beowulf-security/main/binary-amd64/Packages.gz and it's still missing the Thunderbird update... I'll wait, I guess :) Thanks! | 11:15 |
| LeePen | If you are in a rush you should be able to install the debs directly from Debian's pool. | 11:19 |
| Joril | LeePen: good to know, thanks again! | 11:20 |
