When you use --itemize-changes, does it indicate that the timestamps of the

As an added bit of evidence: it works FINE on my Centos-5 box (which is
up to date) at my office.

Anybody got any clues how I can troubleshoot it on my centos-6 system
at home?

[CentOS] [OT} Odd tmux behaviour on exit

2014-12-15 Thread James B. Byrne
CentOS-6.6
tmux-1.6 (epel)

Twice now I have experienced the situation where upon exiting from a tmux
initiated session on a remote host instead of returning to the originating
session I see this in the session terminal display:



··
. . .

. . .

··



If I resize the terminal window then the dots expand to fill the available
display.  The scroll-back is not affected.  I am unable to regain control of
that terminal session from within the session itself.

Looking at the processes runnin on that host from a direct ssh session shows
this:


# ps -ef | grep ssh
root  1502 1  0 Dec12 ?00:00:06 /usr/sbin/sshd
root 10798  1502  0 10:00 ?00:00:09 sshd: root@pts/0
root 13015 10810  0 10:12 pts/100:00:08 ssh inet07 -t -Y tmux ||
/bin/bash
root 13017  1502  0 10:12 ?00:00:08 sshd: root@pts/2
root 15622  1502  0 10:45 ?00:00:00 sshd: root
root 16033  1502  1 10:47 ?00:00:00 sshd: root@pts/3
root 16099 16038  3 10:48 pts/300:00:00 grep ssh
[root@inet07 ~]# ps -ef | grep 10810
root 10810 10809  0 10:00 pts/100:00:00 -bash
root 13015 10810  0 10:12 pts/100:00:08 ssh inet07 -t -Y tmux ||
/bin/bash
root 16113 16038  0 10:48 pts/300:00:00 grep 10810
[root@inet07 ~]# ps -ef | grep 10809
root 10809 1  0 10:00 ?00:00:03 tmux
root 10810 10809  0 10:00 pts/100:00:00 -bash
root 16115 16038  3 10:48 pts/300:00:00 grep 10809



pts/3 is the diect ssh connection.  pts/1 appears to be the tmux session
instigated from the ssh login pts/2.  I am guessing that the problem is
somewhere in the shutdown of pts/1.

If I kill 13015 (pts/1) from the direct ssh connection then I return control
of the tmux session back to the terminal and I remain logged on to the remote
host.  If I then exit the remote host I return to the original host as
expected.

Tmux is called from the original session using a function named sshtn as
defined below:

# declare -f
sshta ()
{
ssh "$*" -t -Y 'tmux a || tmux || /bin/bash'
}
sshtn ()
{
ssh "$*" -t -Y 'tmux || /bin/bash'
}


Anyone have any ideas on what might be causing this; and is there any way of
preventing it?  In this instance I had opened an X-Window application (gvim)
in the remote tmux instance and had subsequently shut that down prior to
exiting.  Nonetheless, I am wondering if that has anything to do with the
situation.

+1 from another 'bad-admin'

I log on at the console with a non-privileged account.  But then I immediately
go into the X-Windows desktop and open a logon terminal session.  There I su
-l to root and leave it open; tmux'ing over ssh from there to all the other
hosts as required.

I do have that 'root' terminal session profiled with a red background.  Just
to remind me of where I am.

[CentOS] Pre-packaged Python 2.7 for 32-bit CentOS 6?

Either this doesn’t exist or my Google-foo is failing me this morning. I keep 
coming across the Software Collections Repository 
(http://wiki.centos.org/AdditionalResources/Repositories/SCL), but that is for

Before I attempt to create Python-2.7 RPMs for 32-bit CentOS 6 to install into

Unfortunately the required destination is a CIFS share, which might change

[CentOS] One-time reboot into alternate kernel?

2014-12-15 Thread Tony Mountifield
Apologies if this should be well-known, but I couldn't find anything!

Situation: a system in a remote location, with no KVM, IPMI or iLO, and
therefore no console access, only ssh. Multiple kernels listed in grub.conf.

Is there a way to reboot temporarily into one of the other kernels listed
in grub.conf, without changing the default= line, so that a subsequent
reboot will default back to the original kernel?

The problem I have is that having changed the default= line to select a
kernel that doesn't boot properly, I need to have someone visit the
console in order manually to select the working kernel again. I would
like to avoid that situation if possible.

Thanks,
Tony

I must be a bad admin because I rarely use sudo (only to limit 

some access to some commands to some users).

That would make me prepand 99% of my daily commands with sudo.
After a while, that gets annoying...
IMHO, this rule is good for users/workstations, not admins/servers.

And even on my workstation I have a dedicated root window where I do root stuff.

Thanks to everyone who's replied thus far.  It seems the information 
given at http://pkgs.org/ isn't fully correct.


These multiple libusb's throw quite a bit of ambiguity and doubt into 
the process of compiling and linking sources which ask for libusb 
v.1.0.x.  Symlinking or changing a Makefile or *.h file might allow 
compilation to succeed (or not), then might successful linking (or not), 
and then might let the executable(s) run correctly (or not); the last 
part I (or anyone else) might not find out until after the merchandise 
return deadline has passed.  Who knows?  One thing is certain:  Canon 
could have put a little more effort into their code and provided a 
friendlier and less doubtful driver package.


Speaking of improvements:  Better commands for displaying this info 
would be:


cat /etc/redhat-release
rpm -qa | grep libusb

I did notice when I installed Dropbox for my mother on Linux Mint 17, that the 
program spent quite a while preparing a file list. 
It took the better part of an hour for barely 500 MB of file-data.

I'll try this in a virtual CentOS 6.6-install. I'll do an Arnie.

Top posting is generally discouraged on this list.

[root@mushroom ~]# yum install man-1.6f* man-pages-3.22-*


And logging in as root for everyday tasks is generally discouraged, as well.

Most admins will edit their /etc/sudoers file to give themselves sudo 
access, so they could run


[username@machinename ~]$ sudo yum install man-1.6f* man-pages-3.22-*

(which will then prompt for the user's password, not the root password) instead 
of logging in as root.

See http://wiki.centos.org/TipsAndTricks/BecomingRoot

Hope that helps!
