... back with more dumb questions presently.
For those just joining us, I'm attempting to follow the instructions at https://dev1galaxy.org/viewtopic.php?id=549 My guess is that nobody has yet followed these instructions for a new project - at least nobody who was not already sufficiently familiar with the process not to need them - because there seem to be places in setting up a real project, as opposed to the null demonstration, where things need to be done and decisions need to be made which are not mentioned in the document. I'm happy to be testing the document. :) Adding a public key to the personal profile at git.devuan.org has not been mentioned thus far; it is mentioned now to list things to add to the document. The need to avoid being sidetracked from the document by clicking on any of the many dead links on the git.devuan.org pages should also be mentioned. Hopefully when we've reached some sort of an artistic conclusion we'll have in this thread a list of the things I've learned that weren't documented. :) laptop3:/opt/ged/git/devuan/pkg_openvpn/openvpn$ >>> d1h prepare jessie-proposed On branch master Your branch is up-to-date with 'origin/master'. nothing to commit, working directory clean [suites/jessie-proposed 3b9f7d1] creating suite suites/jessie-proposed 1 file changed, 2 insertions(+) create mode 100644 debian/gbp.conf [= suite "master" ready =] Switched to branch 'master' Your branch is up-to-date with 'origin/master'. laptop3:/opt/ged/git/devuan/pkg_openvpn/openvpn$ >>> d1h switch jessie-proposed On branch master Your branch is up-to-date with 'origin/master'. nothing to commit, working directory clean [ switched to suite: jessie-proposed ] laptop3:/opt/ged/git/devuan/pkg_openvpn/openvpn$ >>> apt-cache policy openvpn openvpn: Installed: (none) Candidate: 2.3.4-5+deb8u2 Version table: 2.4.0-6+deb9u1~bpo8+1 0 100 http://auto.mirror.devuan.org/merged/ jessie-backports/main amd64 Packages 2.3.4-5+deb8u2 0 500 http://auto.mirror.devuan.org/merged/ jessie-security/main amd64 Packages 2.3.4-5+deb8u1 0 500 http://auto.mirror.devuan.org/merged/ jessie/main amd64 Packages Assuming I want to put OpenVPN in Devuan jessie, how do I choose from the offered packages (i.e. "what are the decision making processes?", not "what is the answer?"). I'm guessing that my next step will be $ git reset --hard tags/2.3.4-5+deb8u2 which happens to be the 'Candidate' but I don't really see why I shouldn't use the version from jessie-backports. -- 73, Ged. _______________________________________________ Dng mailing list Dng@lists.dyne.org https://mailinglists.dyne.org/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/dng
