| HelenasaurusRex | How come qutebrowser package is soo old? I can't log into gmail with it because Google views the version as insecure? | 02:21 |
|---|---|---|
| HelenasaurusRex | You don't even have firefox/iceweasel in the repo?! o.O | 02:22 |
| gnarface | the versions are just whatever Debian puts in there. they're known for having old stuff. what release are you on? in at least one release there's only "firefox-esr" | 02:23 |
| HelenasaurusRex | qutebrowser 2.0.2 | 02:24 |
| gnarface | daedalus is the new current stable, so if you're in need of newer stuff it'd be a good time to upgrade | 02:24 |
| gnarface | it has qutebrowser 2.5.3 | 02:25 |
| HelenasaurusRex | Riiiiiiiiiight | 02:25 |
| HelenasaurusRex | For some reason, your nick reminds me of "gnash". | 02:26 |
| Xenguy | .oO( Who's this chuck? ) | 02:27 |
| HelenasaurusRex | Xenguy: Eh? | 02:27 |
| u-amarsh04 | gnarface I said: "It appears that eudev 3.2.12-2 or later actually fixed compatibility with gudev-1.0-0 238-2 but I'm not sure" - I'm not sure which version of eudev fixed compatibility with gugev-1.0-0 238-2, and wondered if anyone knew which version of eudev fixed the compatiblity issues with gudev-1.0-0 | 02:31 |
| gnarface | u-amarsh04: oh, i see. i could probably have guessed that on my own. i don't know the answer though. | 02:31 |
| gnarface | i would hope it's in the changelog, or at least a patch list somewhere | 02:32 |
| HelenasaurusRex | Extra steps for upgrading Devuan I see. :3 | 02:33 |
| u-amarsh04 | not that I could find in the changelogs, maybe I should have filed a bug against eudev so that I'd be notified of the fix | 02:34 |
| HelenasaurusRex | So yeah, why the extra step to do a dist-upgrade? :3 | 02:37 |
| HelenasaurusRex | Debian would just update the sources.list too... | 02:37 |
| gnarface | would they really? | 02:39 |
| gnarface | they didn't used to | 02:39 |
| gnarface | which is why we still don't here | 02:40 |
| HelenasaurusRex | gnarface: Oh | 03:19 |
| HelenasaurusRex | gnarface: I made a guess on the extra step too... | 03:19 |
| systemdlete | ok, so here's one some of you will love... os-prober. I have been sweeping the web for a solution for about 4 hours. I seem to recall there is some kind of abracadabra thing for this, but I just don't remember it. I run update grub with that OS_PROBER variable set to false so that it should proceed to look for other OSs. | 03:25 |
| systemdlete | It finds exactly one, on a partition of a partitioned MD raid device (yes, a partition on a partitioned raid, /dev/md7p3). Yet it does not find two other OSs on 2 other RAID partitions (/dev/md1 and /dev/md2) | 03:26 |
| Xenguy | oops | 03:27 |
| systemdlete | I am NOT using EFI or UEFI | 03:27 |
| systemdlete | My raid is made up of 2 drives that are partiioned as gpt | 03:28 |
| systemdlete | with the required BOOT BIOS partition | 03:28 |
| systemdlete | (the board does not even support EFI/UEFI, iirc; it's really old) | 03:28 |
| systemdlete | and the other partitions were booting fine before the installation of this newest OS, a test run of my installation scripts and tools. | 03:29 |
| systemdlete | Its quite possible I screwed something up, but judging from the number of hits about os-prober not doing its PERCEIVED task, few if any matching my own scenario, it seems possible that maybe something is broken about os-prober | 03:30 |
| systemdlete | I'm wondering if partitions to be included in the scan by os-prober if they have to be "marked" somehow, like a boot flag, or such. | 03:33 |
| u-amarsh04 | systemdlete I remember playing around with the boot flag set in gparted to control os-prober's behaviour | 03:36 |
| u-amarsh04 | it should really be documented by os-prober | 03:37 |
| systemdlete | u-amarsh04, yeah. That's the kind of thing I recall... vaguely. Barely. | 03:37 |
| systemdlete | WHAT???? | 03:37 |
| * systemdlete looks up "documented" | 03:37 | |
| u-amarsh04 | os-prober does NOT have a man page | 03:37 |
| systemdlete | yeah. Another glaring omission I noticed. | 03:38 |
| u-amarsh04 | not in /usr/share/doc/os-prober/README either | 03:40 |
| systemdlete | u-amarsh04, there's the legacy boot flag (which can be changed in fdisk with "A") but I don't see it set for the one partition os-prober found | 03:40 |
| u-amarsh04 | I was searching around in /etc/cron.daily and found that plocate was not executable, set it executable now updatedb runs as a daily cron job again | 03:42 |
| systemdlete | I don't see any sort of flags, boot or otherwise, in any of the partitions that I know are bootable, and have booted successfully. I can use rescuecd or a devuan boot disk to restore it, but I am curious why it doesn't work consistently. | 03:44 |
| systemdlete | I just tried grub-mount /dev/md1 (where daedalus is already installed) and it comes back with a smart-aleck response that "md0 not found" | 03:53 |
| systemdlete | md0? I did not pass anything like md0 to it. In fact, it does not even exist! | 03:53 |
| chomwitt | In Daedalus gpg-agent runs under runit and has some options when run. But $ dpkg -L gpg-agent i cant find what is the relevant runit file that starts it in order to change its arguments. | 12:29 |
| gnarface | chomwitt: i suspect it might actually get started by the session manager, not the init system | 12:33 |
| gnarface | yea, check this file: /etc/X11/Xsession.d/90gpg-agent | 12:34 |
| chomwitt | one moment | 12:36 |
| chomwitt | ok.i see 90gpg-agent. But i use sway (i have also install Xwayland) so i dont know how runit handles that case , also i dont see in that file how i could change the initial homedir option | 12:45 |
| gnarface | could it be getting started from the window manager's startup programs? | 12:50 |
| gnarface | sorry, don't know, but i suspect it might be something like this | 12:51 |
| gnarface | or else runit could be using sysvinit scripts like openrc | 12:51 |
| gnarface | someone who knows runit should know | 12:52 |
| chomwitt | ok. thanks . i am looking to it. | 13:00 |

| YKaelig | Hello | 19:36 |
| YKaelig | I have installed wine apt install wine but now Iwant to execute an exe it is asking about a software to run it that I have no idea where to find it. | 19:38 |
| YKaelig | There is no wine in the list of softwares | 19:39 |
| fatal | YKaelig: maybe you need winetricks to install windows related stuff but just ask in #winehq | 19:43 |
| fatal | (wintricks is a script to download and install runtime libraries) | 19:45 |
