[gentoo-user] Q: Where does elogind get "--keeptty" set?

2020-10-26 Thread Steven Lembark 
After conversion to elogind I cannot start X11. 

I've re-emerged PAM, though the ._cfg_system-auth tried to remove 
elogind.so, oddly enough.

At this point my Xorg.0.log includes:

systemd-elogind: Logind integration requires -keeptty and 
-keeptty was not provided, disabling elogind integration.


Looking for -keeptty I find:



I found 74 packages installed on my system with at least one systemd reference 
in them. Most only install service files. Some make use of systemd-journal. 
Only 10 make use of libsystemd-login, and I have now submitted all of them but 
x11-base/xorg-server.  The latter has to be started with "-keeptty" to add 
systemd-login/elogind integration, and that argument is strictly for debugging.

Q: Any suggestions as to where or how I might avoid this or 
   supply -keeptty?

thanks

No problem.  My internet was down for several days.  I was unable to
notice the delay.  ;-)  ROFL 

It seems my provider had a problem and in the meantime a field rat,
common in this area, decided to chew on my phone wire.  I wish someone
had tried to "ring" me up and electrocuted the thing.  :-D  I got it
fixed and my provider fixed their issue as well.  I'm surfing again. 

I'm off to war with a field rat.  May be busy a while.  They stubborn
little things.

it is there, I don't think the posisiton (last) is an issue.

dbus & elogind are both running:

$ ps aux | grep dbus
message+  1294  0.0  0.0   3952  2376 ?Ss   09:19   0:00 
/usr/bin/dbus-daemon --system
root  1323  0.0  0.0   3880  3136 ?S09:19   0:00 elogind-daemon

One odd thing: If I log in with ssh in then "loginctl list" shows
my session as:

SESSION UID  USER SEAT TTY
c2  1024 lembark   pts/0

i.e., allocated pts but no "seat". It does not show anything for
the console logins via root or my userid. Running "loginctl list"
as myself or su gets nothing with only console logins. 

The problem may be here:

# loginctl user-status;
Could not get properties: Is a directory.

Q: Anyone know what the path checked for user-status would be?

Looking at the strace output everything opened was ENOENT or a 
symlink/file (vs. directory) (see paste, below).

Running "loginctl user-status" in a session opened by ssh gets me:

$ loginctl user-status;
lembark (1024)
   Since: Mon 2020-10-26 09:45:43 CDT; 7s ago
   State: active
Sessions: *c3

(ins)lembark@duke:~ $

logind seems to be running, just not for console sessins

Any suggestions appreciated.

Given some more time, I think 3.6 may go away at some point in the
not so distant future.  There may even be a somewhat firm target date
for it.  I think either the date was on -dev or a link to it one.

May have to give it more time yet.

Apologies for not replying sooner. I had a sneaking suspicion this would

[gentoo-user] Updating LibreOffice and EPYTHON

2020-10-26 Thread Andrew Lowe 

Evening all,
	I'm in the middle of doing an "-NuD world" and my  Libreoffice build 
has failed right at the finish line. I get:



* ERROR: app-office/libreoffice-6.4.7.2::gentoo failed (install phase):
 *   No Python implementation set (EPYTHON is null).
 *
 * Call stack:
 * ebuild.sh, line  125:  Called src_install
 *   environment, line 5615:  Called python_optimize 
'/var/tmp/portage/app-office/libreoffice-6.4.7.2/image/usr/lib64/libreoffice/program'

 *   environment, line 5287:  Called die
 * The specific snippet of code:
 *   [[ -n ${EPYTHON} ]] || die 'No Python implementation set 
(EPYTHON is null).';

 *


I have no idea as to what this means - besides the obvious that EPYTHON 
isn't set. Libreoffice was about the 15th item to build in pmy update so 
I assume Portage is working correctly. There is no mention of EPYTHON in


emerge --info | grep EPYTHON

emerge --info lists:
PYTHON_SINGLE_TARGET="python3_7 -python3_6 -python3_8 -python3_9"
so I assume I have a version of Python set

I've had a look at the environment file that it references, line 5287 
and once again, makes no sense to me.


I've had a look on bugs.gentoo.org and only get one bug that lists the 
error string:


https://bugs.gentoo.org/721846

but once again, makes no sense.

	Any one else seen this error? Any one got a remedy? Thoughts greatly 
appreciated,


Andrew

I would think this error points to an apache configuration issue rather than 
php.

Which is also a maintenance nightmare if you end up with packages installed in 
different locations or when paths change due to new versions.

Never mind all the other environment variables that are defined in /etc/
profile.env.
