| LeePen | Morning. | 09:12 |
|---|---|---|
| LeePen | Any thoughts on the pending uploads to chimaera: https://pkgmaster.devuan.org/britney/chimaera/excuses.html | 09:13 |
| LeePen | Any reasons not to migrate them? | 09:13 |
| LeePen | There are also a few for beowulf: https://pkgmaster.devuan.org/britney/beowulf/excuses.html | 09:13 |
| rrq | looks fine to me | 09:15 |
| bgstack15 | Just to be clear, LeePen, are allthese tickets getting updated/closed by you, or is the email system catching up on previous work? | 13:55 |
| LeePen | Yes, me. | 13:55 |
| LeePen | Now I can script the BTS using SOAP, it is much easier to filter and process. | 13:56 |
| LeePen | I have done most of the obvious ones. | 13:57 |
| Joril | Very nice! | 14:01 |
| LeePen | It is mainly finding the relavant Debian bugs, adding them as forwarded and the closing the ones that are fixed. | 14:01 |
| bb|hcb | LeePen: I did check the list of stable updates, as per me rsyslog, openvpn, network-manager and rrqnet are good to go. I am not using and don't know anything about the others, most probably they are good to go too :) | 17:48 |
| bb|hcb | Good job sorting the bugs! | 17:48 |
| LeePen | Thanks. I'll give britney a hint to unblock them. | 17:55 |
| golinux | It was a veritable tsunami! | 18:03 |
| golinux | Well done!! | 18:03 |
| LeePen | Thanks. | 18:05 |
| slips | TZAG, folks, are you guys looking for a new mirror? | 20:26 |
| Xenguy | slips, I think new mirrors are always welcome : -) | 20:36 |
| bb|hcb | slips: New mirrors are always welcome, especially there are not enough in the americas. Set it up and ping onefang here or mirrors@devuan.org | 20:36 |
| Xenguy | ^^ | 20:37 |
| slips | any docs on how i could go about setting one up? Also, are there any lists out there of the current mirrors and their locations? | 20:37 |
| bb|hcb | Xenguy: hehe ;) | 20:38 |
| bb|hcb | https://pkgmaster.devuan.org/devuan_mirror_walkthrough.txt | 20:38 |
| Xenguy | bb|hcb, That was funny | 20:38 |
| bgstack15 | Devuan meet tomorrow, Thursday, January 12, at 20:30 UTC. Pad is here: https://pad.dyne.org/code/#/2/code/edit/Jfa9RwB9gM92c0JT-wa42eyx/ | 20:39 |
| bb|hcb | https://pkgmaster.devuan.org/mirror_list.txt - these are the package ones, here are the .ISO ones: https://www.devuan.org/get-devuan | 20:39 |
| slips | great, thanks | 20:41 |
| bb|hcb | slips: What location are you going to do? Also, do you mirror Debian? | 20:41 |
| slips | Southern US, specifically Oklahoma. I do not mirror debian no. | 20:41 |
| slips | Either that or Ashburn VA, unsure atm, still doing research. | 20:42 |
| Xenguy | slips, Great, as bb|hcb mentioned, I think more mirrors in the Americas are needed | 20:43 |
| slips | yeah, looks like there's only 2 | 20:44 |
| slips | in the US* | 20:44 |
| bb|hcb | Devuan is implemented like an overlay to Debian, some packages are forked to meet the Init Freedom goal and the rest are used 1:1 from Debian. This helps to keep Devuan's mirrors small but requires access to a Debian mirror too (it is ok to use deb.debian.org for the redirects) | 20:45 |
| slips | Duly noteds | 20:46 |
| slips | noted* | 20:46 |
| bb|hcb | There are also DNS round robins - deb.devuan.org (the official one) and CC.deb.devuan.org (not yet officially announced, many of the mirrors already support that, no idea how many users are there). The CC stands for country code, e.g. us.deb.devuan.org | 20:49 |
| slips | interesting. | 20:50 |
| bb|hcb | For countries where no mirror volunteered to take part in the DNS RR, the respective CC.deb.devuan.org resolves to xx.deb.devuan.org which in turn will redirect to deb.devuan.org. Fetching from pkgmaster.devuan.org is not recommended because of its limited bandwidth which is best used to sync the mirrors | 20:51 |
| bb|hcb | That setup also allows to add a mirror in more than one CC DNS RR | 20:53 |
| slips | I see. I don't forsee hosting anywhere outside of the US for the time being but if I ever do I'll keep that in mind | 20:54 |
| bb|hcb | E.g. if you decide to take part in this, you can also add mx, ca or another nearby country which you mirror will serve well | 20:55 |
| slips | aaah that makes sense actually. Yeah I'll have to look into this. My only concern is that this i'm currently planning to run this on a residential network so i'd be concerned about speed. I suppose I could find a VPS or something to run it off of but nonetheless | 20:57 |
| bb|hcb | A full setup will have http(s)://yourdomain.ext/devuan and it will also serve http://*.deb.devuan.org (note there is no way to enable https on DNS RRs) | 20:58 |
| slips | i see. | 21:01 |
| bb|hcb | ... no known wat to enable https, to be more precise ;) | 21:01 |
| bgstack15 | eh, apt repos by design don't need https so it's all good | 21:01 |
| bb|hcb | bgstack15: Yes it is safe, but many people prefer it, to avoid been monitored | 21:03 |
| bgstack15 | true, true | 21:03 |
| bgstack15 | That's a secondary reason I mirror everything for myself locally. The main reason is I do lots of netinstalls. | 21:03 |
| bgstack15 | although that's with a preseed. I don't know how to get the Devuan 4.0 netinstall iso to prompt for an arbitrary http mirror url. | 21:04 |
| bb|hcb | It has only deb.d.o and pkgmaster.d.o, and IMO the last should somehow be removed from there | 21:06 |
| bb|hcb | slips: If your residential connection is stable and has static ips, then there is no problem to take part in some of the RR, although, in general, running some infra from home does not sound like a great idea; if you need help with the setup, ask here :) | 21:12 |
| slips | These docs look pretty exhaustive, I'll let you know if I have any issues. I'm aware of the issues with running infra on a residential network, hence why i'm also considering putting it on like, a VPS or something. | 21:21 |
| onefang | Thanks for filling in for me while I slept. | 23:09 |
| onefang | slips: I look after the package mirrors, not the ISO mirrors. | 23:10 |
| slips | it was my intention to run a package mirror anyways so that's fine by me. | 23:20 |
