Or putting it another way . . . there is no need to stir the pot if there is ultimately nothing there to stir.

@Altoid . . . A "bug report" is not necessarily a "bug". In the future before posting about a "bug" it might be a good idea to wait until it has been verified by the Devuan devs that it actually IS a bug. No need to spread unnecessary FUD on this forum . . . wink

Resolved: https://lists.dyne.org/lurker/message/2 … e0.en.html

I think you have missed the point that all current Devuan releases ship more
recent versions of OpenSSH than required by this test (6.7 or earlier):

openssh    | 1:7.9p1-10+deb10u2 | oldoldstable           | source
openssh    | 1:7.9p1-10+deb10u2 | oldoldstable-debug     | source
openssh    | 1:8.4p1-2~bpo10+1  | buster-backports       | source
openssh    | 1:8.4p1-2~bpo10+1  | buster-backports-debug | source
openssh    | 1:8.4p1-5+deb11u3  | oldstable              | source
openssh    | 1:8.4p1-5+deb11u3  | oldstable-debug        | source
openssh    | 1:9.2p1-2+deb12u3  | stable                 | source
openssh    | 1:9.2p1-2+deb12u3  | stable-debug           | source
openssh    | 1:9.8p1-8          | testing                | source
openssh    | 1:9.8p1-8          | unstable               | source
openssh    | 1:9.8p1-8          | unstable-debug         | source

-G is now a legitimate ssh option (see ssh(1)).

We have reviewed the article you provided and can find no evidence of compromise
of Devuan installations. It is also worth noting that all of Devuan's openssh
packages come directly from Debian, so it would likely be Debian that was
compromised.

I will close this report now, but if you feel we have misunderstood you or
missed something, please feel free to reopen.

Best wishes

Mark

Let that be the unanswered question . . .

Discussions are interesting when little is said but has much value/knowledge. Hot air just contributes to global warming . . .

Perhaps this forum would improve if the "Off Topic" option was mothballed for a while . . .

@ralph.ronnquist . . . You've been around here long enough to know the odds of that happening . . .   wink

#310 Re: Off-topic » How are you guys quoting posts? » 2024-08-30 17:05:29

Because less is preferable to more wink and perhaps the lack of a knee-jerk button will actually produce more thoughtful responses.

Order inevitably slides into chaos and then oblivion. Trying to micromanage just makes things worse. If users here are unable to quote specifically and intelligently that says more about our users than the software guiding them. And a software nanny is an inadequate tool to solve the problem.

#312 Re: Off-topic » How are you guys quoting posts? » 2024-08-29 17:32:43

Back-end or client-side bloat is never OK and full post quoting completely unnecessary.  Also I imagine that most folks here don't enable HTML email. I don' t on any of my accounts . . .

#316 Re: News & Announcements » Excalibur testing isos » 2024-08-26 20:48:37

Yes, that will be a welcome contribution, greenjeans! However, the installer isos are an essential option so imperative to have testing isos built weekly. Still waiting for that to happen . . .  sad

#317 Re: News & Announcements » Excalibur testing isos » 2024-08-26 20:24:40

Just for clarification of the topic of this tread . . . these are the isos that need to be rebuilt for weekly testing. The process is so far above my skill-set it gives me vertigo to look at that page!

#318 Re: Off-topic » Gratitude » 2024-08-24 17:40:01

So good to see you greenjeans! It is such a blessing that we can live so close to and communicate with what's left of the natural world. I am familiar with the spider/scorpion in the tub rescue operation but so few get into the house, I still have to capture them to relocate them outside. I sure wish it was so easy to deal with the mosquitoes and ants . . . big_smile

Don't be a stranger, greenjeans!

You may have noticed that currently no Excalibur testing isos are available.

As soon as someone from the Devuan community steps up to do the weekly builds, they will be available again.

Details here: https://files.devuan.org/devuan_excalib … aller-iso/

Perhaps this is YOUR chance to be a hero!

I hope that pulseaudio never becomes a depend. I have never used it and hopefully never will.

#323 Re: Other Issues » [SOLVED] Strange window after start » 2024-08-18 00:18:17

@devujan . . . there are currently no excalibur testing isos because there is no one to build them . . . sad

#324 Re: Installation » Problems upgrading to Excalibur » 2024-08-17 15:37:52

Did you do the usrmerge before upgrading?

That's why I'm still safely on Chimaera until the dust settles . . .

For those who have an interest, the disappearing web mystery is solved!

I know exactly what happens.

You likely have a Neoscona crucifera spider. An orb weaver. we have one of these in the window behind my desk chair.

Every evening spidy weaves its web for its nightly catch. In the early morning she eats her web and crawls up into some safe spot to spend the day.

I suspect I know where spidy is hiding but don't want to disturb her.
