u-amarsh04starting to get the t64 transition in unstable05:52
CueXXIIIgreat, now libpam-modules-bin in unstable got a libsystemd0 (>= 254) dependency…15:43
golinuxCueXXIII: Please read this post "Why are systemd files present in Devuan?"15:46
golinuxhttps://dev1galaxy.org/viewtopic.php?id=192515:46
CueXXIIIgolinux: yeah, but that version is not yet supported by libelogind015:47
golinuxWell the takeaway in that post is:15:48
golinux"libsystemd0 is used by some daemons to verify if systemd is running or15:49
golinuxnot. If it's not, libsystemd is *totally* *harmless*. "15:49
golinuxBut then the details are above my paygrade15:49
u-amarsh04it's the middle of the 64 bit time transition, so not everything in unstable will be able to be upgraded at once15:50
CueXXIIIoh wait, there is libsystemd0 in devuan, but libelogind-compat conflicts with it15:51
golinuxThen that would be new behavior. Maybe file a bug15:53
golinuxBut then it is in unstable so should work out in time15:54
masonCueXXIII: libelogind0 should replace libsystemd0 more or less completely, if you're not building packages.15:55
CueXXIIIyeah, the time_t transition isn't fun, either :)15:55
masonSeems like you're seeing the less completely, reading what you said again.15:55
masonSorry for the noise.15:56
CueXXIIIyes, currently it is less completely, unfortunately15:56
Dev1BleedingEdgeSeems there is a package mismatch in Ceres. libpam-modules libpam-modules-bin and python3-apt kept back because they depend on Package libsystemd0. libelogind-compat is installed.19:22
ted-iousDev1BleedingEdge: People were talking about that a few hours ago.19:24
ted-iousI think it's some kind of work in progress and it should resolve itself eventually.19:24
hagbardSeems rather be due to a dependency of libapt-pkg6.0, wich isn't there.19:25
hagbardwell, it's there, but not in the required version, due to the devuan fork lagging behind debian.19:26
CueXXIIIyeah, elogind is only released up to 252.9, not 254. there is a 255-alpha, but it seems to move slowly19:27
asbestobtw, devuan netinst became a real pain in the ass. IDK why20:15
asbestolot of errors20:15
gnarfacecan't really help with so little information20:20
golinuxasbesto: Perhaps usrmerge?20:20
asbestoI'm installing the stable20:26
asbestogave me an error, can't find the kernel image20:26
asbestoI'm trying again now20:27
gnarfaceasbesto: try it in expert mode and pick a different kernel from the list20:29
asbestook, got the error20:30
asbestoit fails to fetch something from cdrom://20:30
asbestoat boot, I had an error on this cdrom mount20:31
asbestoI think is something related to the UEFI madness20:31
gnarfaceasbesto: no, if you got it installed and got it to boot, the cdrom:// error is just because it left the cdrom in your /etc/apt/sources.list because you didn't configure networking during install20:32
gnarfacejust fix your /etc/apt/sources.list and that error will go away20:32
asbestoI did. wifi and all20:32
gnarfacevery strange, but check your /etc/apt/sources.list for a cdrom line anyway20:32
asbestomaybe a driver is missing for it?20:32
gnarfacei don't think it would have let you configure wifi if it couldn't find a driver, that's literally the first step20:33
asbestono, I'm connected20:33
asbestoping is fine20:33
gnarface /etc/apt/sources.list, just open the file in a text editor20:33
gnarfaceif you see any lines with cdrom in them, comment them out by adding a # to the beginning of the line20:34
asbestono apt dir in /etc20:34
asbestoO_o20:34
gnarfaceare you sure?20:34
asbestoyep20:34
gnarfacei've never heard of that happening before20:35
gnarfacewhich install image did you use exactly? show me the download link20:35
asbestosorry I have a phone call20:35
asbestook sorry. I don't trust this image. I had this installer from some time ago.20:40
asbestoI'm downloading now from mirror.leaseweb.com20:40
asbestonetinstall x6420:41
asbestoand try again :)20:41
asbestoI had this problem a while ago but now I can't remember how I fixed it20:43
asbestoI remember fiddlin with the BIOS uefi settings but maybe that was a different problem20:43
asbestobtw20:44
asbestowhat is this "usrmerge" thing?20:44
asbestoI never heard of it20:45
gnarfacedon't worry about that yet, it's only in testing and unstable so far20:47
gnarfaceif you stay on daedalus you'll be fine20:47
asbestoyeah but what did they ruined this time?20:47
gnarfacei dunno they're like moving everything into /usr/bin for some dumb reason20:48
asbestoomg.20:48
asbestomeanwhile thank for your patience :)20:49
gnarfacethere are probably some discussions about it on the forum and mailing list, but if not there at least in the IRC logs20:49
asbestoI will check20:49
gnarfacea couple people have been working on dealing with it in here, if you stick around you can probably get some tips from them directly20:50
gnarfacebut basically the short version is it's gonna temporarily and systematically break packages in testing and unstable while they finish relocating stuff20:50
gnarfacenone of the symptoms you've described as problems right now sound like they're related thoguh20:51
gnarfacethough*20:51
gnarfacei can't imagine any reason why /etc/apt/ would be missing, that seems like your previous install didn't even finish20:51
asbestonow I got another error, something about a partition in use while creating the partition in the disk, and it said that I must reboot20:52
asbestobut is continuing20:52
rwpAgreed!  I can't imagine /etc/apt being missing.20:52
asbestome too :)20:52
asbestonow it's installing the linux image.20:52
gnarface"partition in use while creating partition" sounds like user error...20:52
asbestoand I got no errors.20:53
asbestouser error. VERY LIKELY :D20:53
gnarfacewell, maybe some secure boot problem too, not sure20:53
gnarfacesecure boot can complicate stuff20:53
asbestoindeed20:54
asbestoI generally hate when they force security on users.20:54
asbestoI want telnet back, just to say. LOL20:54
asbestobut I'm too old. :)20:54
asbestook, another phone call, sorry20:55
asbestoinstallation is going on. I think my previous image was somehow defective21:05
gnarfacesometimes they just get too old to work right21:08
gnarfacethere's a phase where it has to download a kernel and sometimes it gets so old it doesn't know how to look for the right kernel21:09
gnarfacekindof a known issue with the netinstalls21:09
gnarfacebut people also seem to occasionally get counterfeit installers from unofficial mirrors21:10
