landleyIf I want to devuate a raspberry pi 2b, is there an official image for the current release?23:13
landleyThe images I can find are a while back...23:14
joergREALLY? http://maemo.cloud-7.de/irclogs/freenode/_devuan/ ?23:22
joergniiice23:22
rmthe URL needs updating23:23
rmnot /freenode/23:24
joergsorry there's no way to avoid annoying discontinuities in User Xterface than keeping the "freenode" namepart23:26
joergeventually I gonna do a global rename to sth generic on my server, but for now you gotta live with "freenode"23:26
landleyWhen I move stuff I leave a symlink from the old name.23:28
landley(If I was properly webby it would do a redirect, but I almost never bother.)23:29
joergthis is a weird hack of a cronjob though to automatically create dirs, HTML pages and links in those23:33
joergand all based on the network local symbolic name23:33
joerghow would I teach that script that old logs were under /freenode/ while since today they are under /libera/* ? how would I handle links in there?23:34
rwpHmm...  Possibly rename *everything* to libera so that moving from now forward would be correct?  Then it would only be the historical record which is wrong?  Reverse the issue?23:36
joergyep that's what I gonna do eventually, but then to sth like liberanode or whatever23:36
rwpIf it were me I would freeze the freenode directory as static and create a new directory for libera for the ongoing and simply have two directory trees from http://maemo.cloud-7.de/irclogs/ on down.23:37
rwpThat would reflect reality as it happened.  Seems reasonable to me.23:38
joerganyway to do so I need to do a full backup first, then stop the bot and cronjob while doing a recursive renaming23:38
joergrwp: that doesn't handle links in the automatically generated files23:39
joergalso messing up search and everything23:39
joergsorry, this is pretty fine in my book for this weekend so far. I call it a day, more to come next weekend23:40
rwpNot being in the process with you I do not understand the details that are problematic.  Sorry.  I can only cheer you on and give you my best wishes for it.23:41
Beerjoerg: Symbolic links?23:42
BeerI'd do a split-brain hierarchy, feeding & reading from the new name, and linking old resources from the old directory with links, somehow. Hell is in details ofc23:43
joergaah there was the loose thread23:49
joerghttps://termbin.com/23mb  for the weekend horror show23:51
joergI'm absolutely bo web $whatever, symlinks in docroots of webservers don't always work as expected, I'd not even dare to think of messing with the HTML code generated there, and in the end it's of miner relevance anyway. As mentioned above I eventually will do a global recursive rename in supybot.configl okal symbolic network name and all dirnames s/freenode/network/ or whatever23:58
joergs/bo /no /23:58
