Well done! Let's spread the purpy love far and wide!!
<parazyd> i moved to github . . .
@miroR . . . your enthusiasm for heads is much appreciated. I know that security has been a concern of yours for many years. Could you please enclose the commands in your post(s) in tags. It makes it easier for the eye to find them.
Thanks.
The package manager will see it but won't the version number be different than the Devuan merged one? Hmmmm, maybe not. Version in the repos is 0.43 stable. So it looks like Amprolla has not added any Devuan-specific identification. So your suggestion should work. Sorry for the noise.
Better to download from the devuan merged non-free repos so that updates (if any) will be picked up. ![]()
Could you possibly add that to your Package manager magic incantations? And while you're there would be nice to have code tags around the commands. ![]()
No worries.
Welcome to the forum btw!
This is a known issue.
Nice to see you jheaton5! Several DUFers have found their way here already. Speaking of DUF . . . isn't the yearly hosting fee due around this time of the year? Haven't seen a mention of it over there.
There will be. I have the same 32 bit problem. ![]()
parazyd is walking the talk! This just posted on the dng list:
heads 0.0 is out!
It finally happened and it's not vaporware!
heads 0.0 is a preview live CD of what heads is going to be about. This release is not intended to be used from a security point of view, but as a showcase and testing point of view.
I am not even completely sure everything is torified, but hey, that's what testing is for, no?
So please, download the ISO from the downloads link in the above navbar and abuse the hell out of it
Throughout a certain period, bugs will be fixed within the build system, and patched releases will be released without announcement. So check regularly for 0.0.x releases on the downloads page...
But first, read some notes on it all:
Booting the ISO can be done with some virtualization like qemu or VirtualBox, or it can be dd-ed to a USB flash drive and booted on a laptop. It can be burned to optical media as well.
The MATE desktop environment is not yet included in this release, only AwesomeWM is installed. You can install other environments easily by yourself.
When booted, you will be presented with instructions on how to login, and start a graphical environment. Keep in mind the root password is shown only once and you will have to reboot if you lose access to it.
FWIW on my Devuan Jessie Xfce, I have both udisks2 and libsystemd0 installed but not libpam-systemd. Drives do not automount but do with a click on a right button menu option of the icon that pops up on my desktop.
Is anything like this on the ML or in git?
Not that I've seen. If only . . .
When is the best time for IRC questions??? (EST)
Anytime. The is often a burst of activity when Europe is awakening (and we in the US are sleeping). But there is no clear pattern. Post and you can check the botbot logs for a response anytime.
The definitive answer is in the documentation that is buried at https://files.devuan.org/. That info should be in the https://files.devuan.org/README.txt file and on the index page of the website. Currently it is very hard to find.
OK, jaromil has added that info to https://files.devuan.org/README.txt Will be easier to find now.
What is the issue with ascii and ceres?
Amprolla, that is responsible for the Devuan repos, sometimes lags a bit behind the Debian repos. There are also more packages that need attention as systemd expands its reach. Focus now is on Jessie. Feel free to join in the effort.
Introduction
The purpose of this walkthrough is to give the very basics of converting Debian packages to Devuan. This means making sure that there is no hard dependency on systemd in packages. The good news is that it's much easier to package for Devuan right now than it is to learn packaging from scratch, so this is the best time to jump in if you want to maintain packages for Devuan.
It's important to point out that this is not a manual, there is no intention to document everything about Debian packaging in this one page. Rather this guide just shows you how to remove systemd from a package and make sure it is usable for Devuan. You really do not need to be amongst Debian's elite to help out with Devuan packaging, and everything here will be explained as clearly as possible.
@millpond: I posted your question on irc and here's the response. Centurion_Dan is doing most of the packaging for Devuan:
<Centurion_Dan> golinux: it's not scripts, rather changes usually in the debian/rules to disable the reliance on systemd api's
You might also find dev1fanboy's Maintainer walkthrough useful.
IIRC amprolla2 will tag Debian packages that rely on systemd and quarantine them until they can be repackaged sans systemd.
rrq has put a new and effective spam deterrent in place so signatures have been re-enabled.
@pedropt . . . Could you please use quote instead of code tags when appropriate as in above post. Thanks.
@bobemoe @iamwhatiam . . . The best thing I can think of would be to call @CenturionDan in a response to that issue. I doubt he has time to trawl through git to find issues and that would bring it to his attention. I have just done that for both those issues. As to tags/labels . . . you need permissions to create them and actually, I haven't found them that effective.
@katzenmuzak . . . Thanks for compiling that list. Those issues would have to be posted in git.devuan.org to get any attention. The best place I can think of is here but you might be able to dig out more targeted projects also. In addition I would post the list to dng where it might catch someone's attention (but will get 'lost' rather quickly).
