brocashelmon a runit system, i only have sysvinit-utils still installed from the sysvinit packages. if i remove it, will i still be able to manage services with runit, or just keep it anyway? i got runit-services installed from experimental07:47
gnarfacei think the runit install may be like the openrc install in that debian has set it up to be able to use the sysvinit scripts and has become dependent upon them. i don't think anything will change if you remove it except that you may need to populate a bunch of missing runit service files or whatever they call them.07:48
brocashelmsv status /etc/service/* displays things like anacron, cron, dbus, dhclient, elogind, network-manager, openntpd, rsyslog, and uuidd; i guess what's missing might not carry over to runit is what i am understanding?07:50
brocashelmstuff like ufw, sysstat, smartmontools, eudev, hddtemp, clamav-freshclam, cpufreqd, eudev, hwclock.sh, etc. are still in traditional sysv services07:51
gnarfacei haven't used it myself but i assume you're right07:53
gnarfacethe sysvinit scripts are in /etc/init.d/07:54
gnarfacei don't have a /etc/service/ here so i assume those must be your runit scripots07:55
gnarfacescripts*07:55
gnarfacethere might be a good reason they left it that way, or it might just be that nobody wanted to finish the work07:59
SeaBreezeHi everybody, from Italy!08:39
gnarfacewelcome, SeaBreeze. it can be a slow channel so just ask your questions and wait08:40
SeaBreezeOk, no problem. I've only joined the channel for now. I've been using Devuan for a few years, waiting for Daedalus (when ready)08:45
brocashelmseabreeze: you can install daedalus anytime you wish. it's been pretty good in the last several months (i dropped to it from ceres)08:47
SeaBreezeYes yes I know, but I'm not in a hurry and prefer to use stable branch.08:55
SeaBreezeAh, I've seen the Sapphire theme... Love it! Great work!08:57

amaHello!  I'm having trouble with apt in a few boxes.  It doesn't matter which repositories I add in my sources.list file, they always try to download packages from debian.map.fastlydns.net:80 (151.101.134.132), and the connection fails (time out).  Any idea on how to solv this problem, please?11:31
rrqsounds like proxy setup11:48
rrqama: look at /etc/apt/apt.conf and all /etc/apt/apt.conf.d/* files for Acquire::http::proxy ...  and comment it out11:50
amaThank you, rrq.  There isn't any Acquire::... entry on /etc/apt/apt.conf or any of the .d/ files.12:27
amaI'm running those systems as LXC containers, in case it might help...12:28
amaAh, wait, but it's happening on the host OS as well...12:29
amaThere isn't any Acquire::... entries there either12:30
DPADid you also check the sources.list.d/ directory? Does "env | grep -i proxy" show anything?12:45
ama_Sorry. Got disconnected.  :-(12:46
DPADid you also check the sources.list.d/ directory? Does "env | grep -i proxy" show anything?12:51
onefangama_: Note that this is Debian mirror infrastructure that you are having a problem with.  Most of our package mirrors redirect to Debian servers for packages we don't fork.12:54
ama_"env | grep -i proxy" doesn't show anything, and /sources.list.d/ is empty.12:54
ama_I understand that, onefang, thank you.12:54
gnarfaceama: can you show your /etc/apt/ssources.list?14:48
gnarfaceuse paste.debian.net or just /msg it to me, i'll sanity check it for you14:52
amaSure, gnarface:  https://nosbin.com/nevent1qqs2nj2eqj0lescr5kllxev0ghjl4zttetl726n5gt6stzl84s54k8cprdmhxue69uhkummnw3ez6ur4vgh8xetdd9ek7mpwv3jhvqglwaehxw309ahx7um5wgh8wctvd3jhgmmxwdshgmmndp5jucm0d5q3jamnwvaz7tmwdaehgu3w0fjkyetyv4jjucmvda6kgqg5waehxw309aex2mrp0yhxgctdw4eju6t0qyt8wumn8ghj7un9d3shjtnwdaeky6tw9e3k7mgpzemhxue69uhhyetvv9ujumn0wd68ytnfdenx7aynsah14:54
gnarfaceama: use paste.debian.net or /msg it to me14:54
amaI rather use a sane alternative to the paste services :-)14:55
gnarfacethat would be /msg14:56
amaThat would be nosbin, but I could also /msg it, of course.14:57
gnarfacetry removing the "de." so the hostname is just deb.devuan.org14:58
gnarfacethe country prefixes are not maintained14:59
amaIt  doesn't matter whether I add a country specific domain or not... it behaves the same14:59
gnarfacei'm surprised there's even still a record there14:59
gnarfacemay be a problem with the routing then14:59
amaIn fact, I added the .de a couple of hours ago to try if it'd help14:59
amaIt might be a routing problem, perhaps, but oddly enough 'apt update' works just fine, whereas 'apt upgrade' fails.15:01
onefangThe country prefixes are back, we just haven't officially announced it yet.  Soonish.15:06
onefangAssuming my life doesn't go to shit again.  lol15:06
amaThey work fine for me, onefang, indeed, just not on those few servers.15:07
amaAs for the routing... I can ping and SSH in and out of those servers, and apt works fine on a bunch of other boxes on the same subnet.15:10
nemouuuugh man upstream can be frustrating. https://gitlab.freedesktop.org/xorg/driver/xf86-video-vmware/-/issues/8  ran into this bug on a dev machine after the Xorg log grew to 10 gigs in size19:04
nemoreported 6 years ago. last plaintive update for a merge 1 year ago19:04
nemono response from anyone19:04
nemohttps://bugs.debian.org/cgi-bin/bugreport.cgi?bug=845496  heh. 20 gigs consumed. 10 gigs from the issue with vf86-video-vmware, and 10 gigs from brltty...19:13
nemoat least brltty can just be removed..19:16
nemoheh. brltty had spammed the syslog 83 million times19:20
nemohmmm and way too many DHCPREQUEST too..19:23
nemoheh. although given this machine has been running continuously for 660 days..19:26
nemoapparently users don't reboot unless you ask them to19:26
amaReboots are for hardware upgrades.  :-)19:27
nemoremoving brltty from everything.19:29
nemoso between Xorg.0.log syslog and daemon.log  those 2 bugs above in log spamminess had sucked up 30 gigs of space on this machine19:31
nemothere maybe should be some default cutoffs on the size of those logs :(19:32
nemocan't fix the xorg issue. can only restart slim periodically19:32
nemo8 million DHCP alerts...19:48
nemocan I just plug these 3 logs into logrotate? would it break anything?19:49
nemoI'd like to avoid this issue in the future without mandating people reboot19:49
nemoI mean, they are devs, you really would think they would, but...19:49
nemomaybe she forgot about this machine19:49
nemocrap. I forgot to note down when the log messages stopped... that was silly of me... it could easily have run out of space a while ago. she hadn't logged in too recently19:59
nemowould've been interesting to know exactly how long it would take those 2 bugs to fill up a modest disc19:59
nemodædalus is still not officially stable right?20:14
fluffywolfunicode!20:14
bb|hcbnemo: You can consider it stable. Install media is not yet ready (rc1 came yesterday) and website/announcements are not made, but the packages are stable20:15
nemokk thx20:16
nemowill the next release be elæon ?20:23
nemoI vote for færie for the one after that 😝20:23
fluffywolfI vote we stop using words with "ae" in the name.  :P20:24
nemoheh. fine. but I was entertained by it.  not that my input on this matters.20:25
nemojust don't use "fæcal" 😉20:28
nemohm... looks like it could continue though. https://en.wiktionary.org/w/index.php?title=Category:English_terms_spelled_with_%C3%8620:29
FatPhilnothing wrong with "ae", it's unnecessary imposition of typographical choices by using a ligature when a digraph will do that's the problem.21:40
nemo?21:44
nemooh. heh. you object to the unicode. meh. everyone supports basic multilingual plane these days. I can have a bit of fun in IRC without people being uptight I imagine.21:48
nemofree configuration testing21:48
psb_devuan hosting, who offers same?22:51
masonpsb_: Not sure, but remember that you can install Debian and migrate it. Some providers let you install from an ISO, which would be a good bet. Vultr is one such.22:59
