Demosthenexhrm, i'm not ready to update to beowulf :P but i need a newer libglib. suggestions?16:02
sgagebackports?16:14
Demosthenexascii-backports seems not to have it. profanity (xmpp client) wants 2.56 and i'm on 2.5016:20
phoggdepending on the deps you can possibly do a "simple" backport yourself by adding a deb-src line for beowulf and then doing apt install build-essential; apt build-dep $package; apt -b source $package16:24
Demosthenexi'm looking for a statically compiled rev atm :P16:43
Demosthenexor i can use  0.8 which uses older glib16:43
Demosthenexi'm in the middle of transitioning to my new laptop, i don't have time to upgrade to beo :P16:43
Demosthenexthough i'd like it16:44
fsmithredhow are you transitioning to the new laptop?16:47
Demosthenexoh, its a from scratch build on a "new" x230 with an x220 keyboard hacked in (screw chicklets, the systemd of keyboards). installed gentoo with root on zfs, and i'm actually using zfs send to do backups from the laptop to my devuan server (with zfs for data)16:51
Demosthenexneed my laptop done for business next week, no time to play with server16:51
Demosthenexif you've never used it, zfs is just amazing. if only a little arcane16:58
fsmithredIf it's a new install, why not start with beowulf? It's the current stable release.17:14
Demosthenexno, my server is devuan. it's on ascii. laptop was gentoo ;]17:14
Demosthenexi tend to run gentoo on workstation (bleeding edge), while keeping my server nice and stable (ty devuan)17:14
fsmithredah, ok. Thought we were talking about one system.17:16
fsmithredMakes sense now.17:16
