Re: Caja de MATE squatte Iceweasel

2014-12-02 Thread Raphaël RIGNIER

Le 30/11/2014 19:34, Alain Rpnpif a écrit :

Bonjour,

Quand je voulais ouvrir le dossier de téléchargements de Iceweasel,
clic-droit sur le fichier téléchargé, c'était Thunar qui prenait la
main comme souhaité.

Depuis que j'ai installé MATE, c'est Caja (ex-Nautilus 2) qui prend la
main malgré que je sois sous Xfce. Dès que Caja est lancé, il reste en
tâche de fond et prend la main pour certaines opérations à la place de
Thunar comme par exemple ouvrir une clé USB.

Quelqu'un sait-il comment imposer à Iceweasel Thuanr à la place de
Caja ?

De même, quand je suis sous Mate, je voudrais que ce soit Caja qui
prenne la main. En résumé, Thunar sous Xfce et Caja sous Mate comme il
se doit.


Bonjour,
peut être faut-il un profil différent par Desktop ?
As-tu tenté avec iceweasel -p ce que ça donne ?

Re: [HS] Serveurs de clé OpenPGP

2014-12-02 Thread Rhatay Sami
Hello,

merci de ta réponse. J'ai envoyé ma clé sur SKS, ils synchronise encore
avec d'autres, ce qui me paraît vachement plus pratique que d'envoyer à
plein de serveurs différents qui ne communiquent pas entre eux.

 J'avais uploadé la clé sur 1 serveur mais l'un de mes contacts m'a fait
 remarquer qu'il n'arrivait pas à trouver ma clé... du coup je l'ai fait
 sur les 3. Est-ce bien suffisant ?

 Voilà les 3 serveurs :
 pgp.mit.edu
 pool.sks-keyservers.net
 keys.gnupg.net
 
 Techniquement ils synchronisent entre-eux... ou en tout cas ils le
 faisaient. Je publie toujours sur pool.sks-keyservers.net puis si j'ai
 le temps, sur les autres aussi.
 
 Pour être certain je demanderais sur la liste de discussion de GnuPG:

Re: Debian sur ACER Travelmate ne boote pas

2014-12-02 Thread Pierre Couderc

J'ai compris ce qui se passe.
L'installation sous wheezy se passe bien.
Je boote et je reboote sans problème.

Puis, je fais une migration à jessie (en suivant les instructions 
officielles), puis une série de

aptitude upgrade
jusqu'à ce tout soit à jour.

Je tente de rebooter et mon boot n'est pas reconnu (il ne trouve aucun 
périphérique de boot).

Bonjour,

J'ai un problème en installant une debian sur un Acer Travelmate 
(sans aucun OS alternatif).
J'ai fait une installation minimum (laptop, utilitaire système), 
après avoir désactivé le boot EFI (Legacy Bios).

Et il refuse de booter.

Il passe en :

grub rescue 
en déplorant l'absence de /mnt/boot/grub/i386pc/normal.mod

En bootant avec un CD live, le disque a une bonne tête, avec une

Oui, tu peux très bien ajouter dans le /etc/fstab des directives de 
montage type
« tmpfs » pour tous les dossiers que tu veux. Ensuite, tu n'auras 
qu'à ajouter
les commandes de montage dans un script d'init (que tu peux créer)

le script /etc/rc.local.

Sinon, François B. (ici présent) maintient un système live (qui 
boote depuis une

d'avoir des
données modifiables et persistentes sur un système de fichiers en

Je crois que c'est basé sur unionfs, il le confirmera si il passe

Je sais pas si c'est ce que tu cherches,
mais pour mes clients légers, je pars de ltsp-server qui sous Debian 
par défaut utilise NFS contrairement, à Ubuntu qui utilise nbd et 
squashfs.


Le plus gros du travail est fait par LTSP avec une install debootstrap 
minimum et un chroot (lecture seule) configurable à volonté en 
modifiant/créant quelques scripts dans /usr/share/ltsp et la config 
ltsp.conf chargée depuis tftp.


Côté client, toutes les modifs mon sont non persistantes en dehors des 
montages nfs en rw.


Raphaël



Je n'en ai pas parlé, mais je suis arrivé dans une structure ou il y a 
un pool de (5) serveurs LTSP (Ubuntu 12.04 LTS avec nbd  squashfs) et 
des clients léger.


Je souhaite remplacer ce système client/serveur LTSP vieillissant (de 
plus en plus décalé dans les versions), par un nouveau système de 
clients légers (sous NFS évidement).


Donc : Oui, c'est ce que je cherches à mettre en place.


Ne connaissant pas (actuellement) la conf de LTSP, est-ce lourd à 
configurer ou est-ce assez/extrêmement simple (création de scripts ???) ?


Si tu as déjà réalisé ce type de configuration, as tu des (précieux) 
conseils ?

Devuan y un poco mas de luz

2014-12-02 Thread unciegobailando

Fuentes:

http://forum.debianizzati.org/viewtopic.php?f=15t=49133start=225

Extraccion y traduccion desde:
http://lamiradadelreplicante.com/2014/12/01/devuan-uno-de-los-creadores-del-fork-de-debian-da-su-vision-del-proyecto/

Aqui copio y pego las declaraciones de uno de los administradores de Devuan:

- - -

Hola a todos Soy Franco NEXTIME Lanza uno de los autores del fork 
Devuan. Escribo en este hilo para hacer algunas aclaraciones que espero 
puedan ser apreciadas


No tengo la intención de explicar y /o discutir el derecho a hacer 
un fork ,o porqué lo estamos haciendo, si systemd es bueno o no, etc, 
etc, esto ya tiene consumido demasiados teclados.


Sin embargo me gustaría hacer algunas aclaraciones sobre lo que 
somos y lo que estamos haciendo en relación a los diferentes comentarios 
que surgieron en este hilo.


VUA es un grupo de personas asociados en un foro de discusión 
privado y cerrado que nació hace años, alrededor de unos 3 y medio, 
formado por un grupo de “viejos” administradores de sistemas Unix. Todos 
amigos y en su mayoría de la zona de Milan


El nombre viene de aquí: 
http://www.infoworld.com/article/2623488/unix/nine-traits-of-the-veteran-unix-admin.html 
.Nuestra definición interna se reconoce en al menos 5, preferiblemente 6 
de los puntos enumerados en ese artículo.


Aunque cerrado y privado el grupo VUA ha crecido con el tiempo, 
contando en estes momentos con 932 miembros, el 95% de Italia e 
incluyendo ya no solo administradores del sistema sino otra gente 
relacionada con la informática y/o cercana a Unix.


Entre ellos un grupo de 50 personas, todos usuarios de Debian desde 
hace tiempo, algunos desarrolladores, algunos sysadmin y otros incluso 
desarrolladores de Debian decidieron poner en marcha el sitio 
debianfork.org, debido a que por razones que ya no vienen al caso 
discutir no querían la imposición de systemd.
Después que el asunto de la resolución general de Debian finalizara 
mal en nuestra opinión, decidimos avanzar y crear un fork.


Actualmente Devuan el fork en cuestión cuenta con una docena de 
desarrolladores activos de estes veteranos VUAs…y otros están uniéndose 
o a punto de unirse al proyecto.
El proyecto es muy serio…no es trolling…se decidió que era el 
momento de dejar de gritar que no queremos imposiciones y que había 
llegado el momento de actuar y crear un fork, y lo estamos haciendo.


Debo hacer hincapié en que Debuan no es una Debian sin systemd o 
contra systemd, de hecho este sistema de inicio será soportado. Devuan 
es un fork a favor de la libertad de elección. Por defecto vendrá con 
sysvinit, pero ofrecerá soporte a todos los init, todos los que se 
encuentran en Debian por lo menos.


Entonces que cosas se cambian con respecto a Debian? Muchísimas. Se 
ha dicho que systemd se pueden evitar en Debian, pero esto no es 
cierto.Usted puede retirarla del PID1 pero los “tentáculos” están en 
todas las partes del sistema, y no es posible evitarlo por completo.


…muchos dicen que no se sabe quién está detrás. Aparte de la 
explicación de que en el grupo VUA hay un número de nosotros que al 
menos por ahora quiere permanecer en el anonimato. También existe el 
motivo de que considerando las fuertes diatribas que se montan contra 
cualquiera que no es “pro-systemd”, muchos prefieren no exponerse a 
sufrir insultos, amenazas, incluso denigración..


Otra de las críticas es que estamos poco tiempo online…gente! es 
que estamos bifurcando una distribución enorme, lo que significa no solo 
paquetes, también trabajo organizativo, estructura, toma de decisiones, 
etc..El fork comenzó hace una semana, dejarnos tiempo para organizarnos :D


¿Quién recibe el dinero: Dyne.org, asociación sin ánimo de lucro ha 
existido durante muchos años, reconocido por la FSF y la comunidad 
Europea, con sede en los Países Bajos, que opera varios proyectos de

 Si sucede eso (que es lo esperable) indica que algo está impidiendo al
 módulo de sonido de intel que se pueda cargar al iniciar el sistema por
 lo que no estaría de más que comprobaras que no está en la lista negra
 de módulos (/etc/modprobe.d/*).

 Si no ves nada raro, te recomendaría que informaras en el BTS de Debian
 aunque ya te digo que a mí sí me funciona en Jessie y cuando añado ese
 módulo en el /etc/modules el journal lo muestra cargado.

 Bien.
 
 Los malos de la película eran /etc/modprobe.d/oss4-base_noALSA.conf y
 /etc/modprobe.d/oss4-base_noOSS3.conf.

Por algún motivo que desconozco, los módulos del kernel para el sonido de 
la tarjeta (p. ej., snd-*) y los de OSS son incompatibles (o cargas uno u 
otro pero no ambos porque entran en conflicto).

 Del primero, tuve en su momento una leve sospecha, dado que en una de
 sus  líneas contiene la instrucción blacklist snd-hda-intel, la cual
 eliminé hace varios meses, sin resultado positivo.

Pues es lo que te dije allá por octubre¹, pero no hubo caso :-)

 Esta vez me tomé el trabajo de sacar de /etc/modprobe.d/ todos los
 archivos, que son los que siguen
 
 alsa-base fbdev-blacklist.conf intel-microcode-blacklist.conf mdadm.conf
 modesetting.conf nvidia-blacklists-nouveau.conf -
 /etc/alternatives/glx--nvidia-blacklists-nouveau.conf nvidia.conf -
 /etc/alternatives/nvidia--nvidia-modprobe.conf nvidia-kernel-common.conf
 oss4-base.conf osspd.conf oss4-base_noALSA.conf oss4-base_noOSS3.conf
 
 y reiniciar el equipo.
 Mágicamente, el sonido volvió.

De mágico nada...

 Razón por la que fui agregando de a un archivo, y reiniciando el
 sistema, hasta que cuando incluía cualquiera de los dos últimos, me
 quedaba sin sonido.
 
 Es evidente que los larguísimos blacklist que ambos poseen bloquean el
 sistema de sonido de ALSA.

Con un grep -i black /etc/modprobe.d/* te hubieras ahorrado mucho 
tiempo y disgustos.

 La solución por ahora fue eliminarlos de /etc/modprobe.d/, sin ningún
 inconveniente detectado.

¿Mand? ¿Que has eliminado todos? :-O 

No, hombre, no hagas eso que esos archivos contienen configuraciones que 
te pueden servir... haz una búsqueda selectiva o en todo caso renombra 
los de oss*.

 Es más, una pequeña placa de audio USB que no funcionaba, (lo achacaba a
 falta de controladores), ahora sí lo hace.
 (Syba SD-CM-UAUD USB Stereo Audio Adapter, C-Media Chipset, RoHS)
 
 Lo que me queda pendiente por averiguar es por qué una instalación
 limpia de Debian, carga tantos blacklist de OSS que impiden la
 correcta ejecución de ALSA.

La pregunta sería más bien por qué tienes instalado el paquete OSS si 
tienes ALSA y los módulos del kernel detectan la tarjeta de sonido sin 
problemas.

Si es una máquina virtual (podrás crear una snapshot del sistema antes 
de hacer cambios) y dado que tienes la lista de paquetes que se han 
actualizado puedes volver a instalar los paquetes que se correpsonden 
con tu versión para que no tengas problemas en el futuro.

Y recuerda que si quieres usar el repo de Mozilla los paquetes se 
actualizan de forma individual y si el gestor de paquetes te dice que 
te va a instalar 50 paquetes de una versión distinta, pues hombre,

 No conozco r commander ¿qué hace exactamente esa aplicación y qué

 Camaleón, R Commander es un frontend de R. GNU-R es una aplicación para
 trabajar especialmente estadística, aunque se pueden trabajar muchas más
 cosas de matemáticas.
 
 En los repositorios de Debian se encuentra r básico mediante el
 paquete r-base que se puede complementar con los paquetes r-cran-*.
 
 Este software es usado en las universidades, por ejemplo aquí en la
 Universidad Nacional de Colombia en el departamento de Estadística.

Gracias por la explicación. 

Si se trata de un programa de estadística y manejo de datos en bruto, 
dependiendo del tamaño de los archivos de entrada (¿GiB?) quizá sí te 
pueda generar una carga de trabajo en el equipo notable, dependiendo de 
la potencia del mismo lo que puede hacer que el equipo se sobrecaliente 
como dices más abajo.

 Lo primero sería mirar los registros, aunque la mayoría de los cuelgues
 debido a problemas con el hardware no dejan señal alguna. Por ejemplo,
 un exceso de calentamiento, un módulo de memoria en mal estado, un
 disco duro con sectores defectuosos o problemas con el micro suelen
 causar cuelgues repentinos o reinicios que no dejan huella.
 
 Después, convendría saber si el cuelgue se debe a las X o al kernel.
 Para descartar un problema con el servidor gráfico suele ser útil
 acceder desde otro equipo con ssh ya que si el servidor X está colgado
 el acceso mediante ssh seguirá funcionando sin problemas. En cambio, si
 no responde, apuntaría a un cuelgue del kernel que es más difícil de
 gestionar ya que tendrás que buscar un patrón de error (ver en qué
 situación se produce ese cuelgue) aunque también puedes probar con una
 versión del kernel superior a la actual (p. ej., el que está disponible
 en los baskports) para ver si funciona sin problemas.
 
 
 En cuanto al problema, si he notado un problema con la temperatura. Ésta
 sube hasta el nivel crítico por lo que tengo que usar una base
 refrigerante. Seguramente éste fue el motivo. Este portátil vino con
 este inconveniente de temperatura, pero ya se pasó el tiempo de
 garantía.

Entonces te convendría hacer dos cosas:

1/ Monitorizar la temperatura de manera constante (hay aplicaciones de 
escritorio que te ponen un grafiquito en pantalla o en la barra de tareas 
con los datos de los sensores) para verificar en todo momento que no 
sobrepase la recomendada por el micro aunque no te olvides tampoco del 
resto de componentes, hay tarjetas gráficas que son auténticas estufas.

2/ Refrescar el equipo (hacer una limpieza integral sería lo ideal porque 
los ventiladores mecánicos acumulan mucha pelusa). Además, como se trata 
de un portátil podrías usar una de esas bases que llevan ventiladores y 
evitar así que el equipo entre en shock por golpe de calor :-)

A ver, quizas sea por usar una rama diferente, pero en mi sistema debian 
sid comparto el repositorio correspondiente con el experimental sin 
haber definido un pinning. Existiendo este por defecto un valor de 
prioridad de 500 para sid y 100 para experimental. Con lo cual solo 
utilizando el argumento -t en apt-get puedo pescarme algo del repo 
experimental (practicado para el paquete iceweasel/mozilla con exito). 
Ya he actualizo varias veces con full-upgrade sin ningun problema.
 Me parece extraño que en Jessie/testing suceda lo que comentas, ya que 
no puedo asegurarlo pero creo haber tenido una similar experiencia a la 
que acabo de comentar tambien en esa rama.

 ¿no habras tocado algo?

He estado siguiendo lo que se dice sobre los dos sistemas de arranque;
hoy han estallado todos los foros y blogs con el tema de DEVUAN.

Mi opinión: lo mejor que pudo pasar.
¿Por qué?
Porque no me cabe dudas que va a terminar en algo mucho mejor que no
es ni sysvinit ni systemd.
¿De dónde lo saco?
De la experiencia de la tríada dialéctica.
Después de 20, es la primera vez que se le mueve el piso a Debian.
Y todo organismo sólo evoluciona cuando se ve sometido a presión.
Creo que va a ser una forma de quebrar paradigmas de las nuevas
generaciones, de romper con lo anterior, no porque sea malo, si no por
el simple hecho de intentar otra vía.
Ambos sistemas tienen los suyo, tanto de bueno como de malo.
Lo único que realmente me molesta de systemd, son los logs binarios.

systemd-shim se puede usar con cualquier sistema de inicio, incluido

Por otro lado, en el README.Debian de openrc (0.13.1-4, testing) se lee:

Justamente me acorde de tus comentarios en el tema systemd cuando leia
sobre las ramificaciones y depedencias cada vez mas profundas

encontre algo a favor de systemd, que aunque traducido por google se lee
muy bien... lo dejo por aqui tambien:



(...)

Esa página que apuntas¹ es más antigua que el Balrog de Moria.

De hecho es del desarrollador principal de systemd y efectivamente,
ninguno de sus mitos desmitifica lo que están diciendo los devuanenses,
es decir, que tienen más razón que un santo ;-)

¹http://0pointer.de/blog/projects/the-biggest-myths.html




Eso mismo pude notar aun en mi oscura ignorancia, que no desmitifica los
problemas de los que se encuentra acusado aun hoy. Aunque personalmente me
sirvio para entender mejor sus fortalezas.
La falta de scrips redundantes y la administracion centralizada con una
pequeña curva de aprendizaje... (es lo que mas me quedo en el marote). Ellos
mismos -o el- aclara que la velocidad no fue lo buscado sino un resultado
consecuente del nuevo diseño.

  Realmente parecen dos posiciones 'ireconciliables'. pfff...




He estado siguiendo lo que se dice sobre los dos sistemas de arranque;
hoy han estallado todos los foros y blogs con el tema de DEVUAN.

Mi opinión: lo mejor que pudo pasar.
¿Por qué?
Porque no me cabe dudas que va a terminar en algo mucho mejor que no
es ni sysvinit ni systemd.
¿De dónde lo saco?
De la experiencia de la tríada dialéctica.
Después de 20, es la primera vez que se le mueve el piso a Debian.
Y todo organismo sólo evoluciona cuando se ve sometido a presión.
Creo que va a ser una forma de quebrar paradigmas de las nuevas
generaciones, de romper con lo anterior, no porque sea malo, si no por
el simple hecho de intentar otra vía.
Ambos sistemas tienen los suyo, tanto de bueno como de malo.
Lo único que realmente me molesta de systemd, son los logs binarios.

JAP




aprovecho que estoy curioseando y les pregunto algo tecnico sobre 
systemd que no me ha gusta (no se si estoy bien orientado..)


No resulta -asquerosamente- intrusivo que systemd se meta entre los 
pedidos de una aplicacion y d-bus?
 O sea que si falla systemd se me cuelga todo el escritorio gnome por 
ejemplo (y quizas parcialmente cualquier otro entorno)?

Pues más o menos lo mismo que si falla el núcleo o el servidor X, se

[OFF-TOPIC] GVT de 35MB

2014-12-02 Thread Henrique Fagundes

Colegas,

Alguém do grupo possui GVT da velocidade de 35MB? Se sim, qual o modem 
que eles costumam enviar?


Outra dúvida: Eles costuma bloquear portas baixas, do tipo: 80, 21, 22 e 
etc?


Estou migrando de velocidade, passando para 35Megas e preciso de um 
modem que possua recursos avançados, do tipo que deixe eu mudar a range 
de IPs, desativar o DHCP e que faça uma DMZ para o IP do servidor.


E também preciso que essas portas mencionadas estejam abertas.

Atualmente tenho GVT de 15MB, com um modem SAGEMCOM que tem todos esses 
recursos e o link não tem nenhuma porta bloqueada.


No aguardo de informações.

Atenciosamente,

Henrique Fagundes

Stale file in Debian after change of equivs package

2014-12-02 Thread mad
Hi!

I am using equivs to create simple packages with dependencies and a few
files.

Now I removed one file from the equivs package and installed the
resulting deb file. The deb file does not contain the file but dpkg did
not remove the old file and says that the file belongs to the package.

What did I do wrong?

Example - Old package:

$ dpkg-deb -c package1.deb
/etc/test1.conf

$ dpkg -L package1
/etc/test1.conf

New package:

$ dpkg-deb -c package1.deb
/etc/test2.conf

$ dpkg -L package1
/etc/test2.conf
/etc/test1.conf

TIA

What customers??  This is open source.  Developers do not need, if they do not 
want to, to take any notice of anyone but themselves.  They do not need 
customers.  This is the basic misconception.  Developers do not need us, the 
users.  We need them.  This is NOT a business.  It will go out of business 
(having not been one in the first place) not if it loses all its users (who

Um, I've heard that said before - but I like to check my facts
(especially when issues are emotive, *and* when outside parties may
have an interest in creating dissension and disorder), so I've read
Patrick's opinions[*1]. He's never said that (though I'd welcome an
authoritive correction). Understandably cautious for someone who
manages a huge workload almost single-handedly.
He has said he intends to remain with the current init system - that
he likes some of the abilities of systemd, and that one day he may
move to systemd.[*1] Which is not close to absolutely refuses to use
systemd.

[*1]:-
http://www.linuxquestions.org/questions/interviews-28/interview-with-patrick-volkerding-of-slackware-949029/


   and more and more
   developers will start writing apps with systemd, or parts of it,
   as a dependency for the features it offers.

 It's their choice - likewise it's your choice *not* to write
 alternatives. It 'sounds' like you're proposing a regime where those
 that produce have their freedom of choice constrained by users.
 I struggle to find a rationale that makes that reasonable or likely to
 do anything other than destroy, given that the user has a choice.

 User's do constrain.

Within some limits (e.g. if the developer cares primarily about the
users i.e. if the main motivation is not to scratch an itch). And
that few users can agree on what they want except on a few minor
points, it is an impossibility to extrapolate constrain to define
individually defined outcomes.  When users dictate often times
the constraint results only in the destruction of that which the
dictators hoped to shape.

 They even dictate.

Some times. The most vocal minority demand - I see little evidence
that does anything but the opposite of what they expect.
Sadly many believe that criticism is a right, and also something for
which they are owed. Like similar behavior in restaurants it's
ultimately unhealthy for the consumer unless done carefully, politely,
and with the full understanding of possible reactions from the
producers.

 Always have.  Developers
 should, if they are samrt, be developing what customers want or need.
 Not the other way around. That's the formula for going out of business.
 Listening to your customers as well as your potential customers is just
 good business.

Sound practice in commercial enterprise - not in FOSS. And even in
commerce the business that's wise recognises it can't please everyone
so it allocates resources in the most profitable manner - which means
it never satisfies all possible customers.


 
  Every other distro of merit has long since made the switch. We're
  just late to the party.  Are you just figuring it out now? Ric
 
  Depends on what you mean by distros of merit.
 
  Last time I checked -- two or three weeks ago -- only 6 distros
  besides Jessie were using systemd as the default:

 Depends on what 'you' call *default*. It implies a choice - as
 opposed to *mandatory*.

 You do have a choice, but ONLY after systemd is installed and the
 system is running.

It will soon be possible to choose before installation. And always a reboot is

Mandatory to me would imply you cannot change it
 at all. Ever. The system wouldn't work if you did.  But we know that is not
 the case.

 More importantly it depends on whether using default as a measure of
 support for your argument(?) is relevant.

  Fedora 15,
  RHEL 7, CentOS 7, Arch, OpenSUSE, and SUSE Server.  Just read today
  OpenMandriva uses it. Probably Mandriva, too.  Haven't checked. So,
  9 total including Jessie. In any case, not a long list.

 Assuming your best intentions - that you meant supported, it's a
 *much* longer list. A shorter list is those distributions that *do
 not* include systemd.

 I meant those distros that install systemd as the init at install
 time.

Which is default and mandatory.

I don't now the answer (either way) - though I'd be interested in
knowing (CoreOS?).

  I've also just read of a systemd-less fork of Jessie/Debian.

 A novel fork in that it appears to focus more on raising money than
 producing code, and that it's developers are anonymous. An

Hello,

 I run bind9 locally and noticed that bind9 sometimes needs a restart

Why ? Not running, not resolving, errors... ?
   
   bind9 does not respond.
   
   See e.g. the dig command from my previous post
   
   blackbox:~# dig heise.de
   ^Cblackbox:~#
  
  That was well hidden :-)
  
  Any related messages in /var/log/daemon.log ?
 
 Indeed there are a number of entries in there, these are the entries right 
 after restart:
 
 Nov 30 10:10:49 blackbox named[24198]: clients-per-query decreased to 12

[snipped more of the same]

These messages dont look abnormal - in fact they seem to indicate
proper operation.

 
 But after restart when bind9 is working, I still see similar entries:
 
 Nov 30 15:19:40 blackbox named[2322]: validating @0xb4072230: . NS: got 
 insecure response; parent indicates it should be secure
 Nov 30 15:19:40 blackbox named[2322]: error (insecurity proof failed) 
 resolving './NS/IN': 192.168.178.1#53
[similar messages snipped]

Going back to your original symptom: bind not responding... It looks
like bind is at least *alive*.

I wonder... What exactly does bind not responding mean? any command
that reproduces that would be handy.

As this is happening in relation to suspend/resume, this would imply
that network interfaces go down and up too. So perhaps bind is failing
to detect the re-arrival of network interfaces?

The output of a command like sudo netstat -nlp | grep bind while
bind is not responding would be instructive. And then compare/contrast
with the scenario of a working bind...

Hope this helps

  developers will start writing apps with systemd, or parts of

It's their choice - likewise it's your choice *not* to write
alternatives. It 'sounds' like you're proposing a regime where those
that produce have their freedom of choice constrained by users.
I struggle to find a rationale that makes that reasonable or likely 
to

do anything other than destroy, given that the user has a choice.


User's do contrain.  They even dictate.  Always have.  Developers
should, if they are samrt, be developing what customers want or need.
Not the other way around. That's the formula for going out of 
business.
Listening to your customers as well as your potential customers is 
just

good business.


Really?
Tss...
How many projects have you, as a user, constrained to do something? 
Being commercial or not...


You may had some success in commercial softwares, because of contracts, 
but for small projects, or projects were the developpers are not paid, 
when they only contribute because they wan't to use it, but without 
having to suffer some bug or another, or with a feature they would like 
to have, I sincerely doubt you had constrained anyone.


Honestly... if you want to constrain people on their spare time, if you 
want to remove us the last part of fun we can have in programming, 
then... well, people wont listen you, to stay polite. And it's normal.


Open source developpers are not all paid for what they do. Only a 
minority is, and in this minority, I am not sure that the bigger part 
actually live from open source softwares.
Of course, programming is just one of the various possible 
contributions to a project. But, most open source project starts by pure 
code and/or software engineering steps (most, because not games, for 
example, and there are probably some other around), and by that first 
base of code might, or might not, have contributions on other subjects 
(which are important too, I do not deny that. Even knowing that someone 
tried what you did may be a contribution which helps to continue 
working).
But, maybe you know about a project which started by bug reports or 
translations on an empty codebase?
Not a game, of course, that kind of projects definitely needs lots of 
very various skills. It may be why there are not a lot of pure FOSS 
games of high quality (I mean, there are many of them, but I feel like 
the ratio, when compared to other softwares, is by far lower that the 
same ratio in closed source world. Oh, and I mean graphical games, of 
course, not ascii ones): it does need by far more different skills than 
to build, say, a text editor.


Oh. And, you forgot something. FOSS developpers are the users of their 
work, unlike in commercial softwares. And it changes *a lot* of things, 
if not everything.

Re: XDG Standard is not evil (was: Re: Why focus on systemd?)

Le 28.11.2014 15:32, Rusi Mody a écrit :

However there are some issues: if the software-versions in these
dont match up then its precisely these XDG files that tread on
each others'
toes across OSes.


Well... if configuration files are not both upward and downward 
compatible between different versions, which could be both major, minor, 
Ubuntuesque or googlesque (yes, I do think that Ubuntu and 
chrome/firefox version schemes are stupid) I do not see where is the 
problem.
After all, why, in the first time, do you need on the same computer 
different versions of the same software, if not for testing/development 
purposes? And in those purposes, you probably know how to change the 
default directory, right? On correct softwares, there is a command-line 
option for that, like -c, --config, or sometimes -C.


No issue for me here but...


One solution that Ive been toying with is as follows:
1. Have one real My-home partition
2. Keep /home as part of the OS-file system, so that
each OS can mess around with its own 'XDG's'

I wonder if people have tried this (or something similar) and
any downsides


Here, you know, you could be smarter. XDG directories are defined by 
environment variables. So, why not using, for example, in you .profile, 
something like this:



$cat ~/.profile

#!/bin/sh
case $( grep PRETTY_NAME /etc/os-release |cut -f2 -d'' ) in
Debian GNU/Linux jessie/sid)
XDG_FOOBAR_STUFF=~/.config/jessie
*)
echo hey, I have no idea what distro this is?
esac


But, of course, it won't work with, for example, vim, bash, and plenty 
of softwares which... DO NOT respect XDG things. Oh, and I used 
/etc/os-release, which is not always present because... it's a part of 
XDG, AFAIK. But, you can do this by grepping/sedding in some mount on 
labels or whatever trick you want to identify the system on which you 
actually are.


This is clean, and efficient. Far better that what you could achieve 
*without* XDG.


Yes, I like xdg, between other reasons because it does not impose 
things: good softwares (for example, i3) allows the user to choose, if 
he want or not to use XDG.

If you have a LAN that these users will be connected to - the best

(for squid) is ideal.
If that's not possible and you need to apply internet access control

unskilled admin is to install either:-
;Parental Control GUI (which uses tinyproxy and Dans Guardian)

;WebCleaner http://webcleaner.sourceforge.net/
;privoxy (it's in the Debian repository).



That looks promising.

was someone sending up the anti-system extremists -  then I realised

Patrick cried in his coffee when he realised boycottsystemd was *not*

preseed/late_command will allow you to boot for the first time into
non-systemd system.

preseed/late_command=in-target apt-get install -y sysvinit-core

A simple bash script makes rebuilding an install CD to include that
preseed parameter a simple - quick process for those that want to use
the GUI install option.


 Do you have a citation for this?

I'm glad you asked.
No - I presumed that amongst the lots of experts so opposed to the
late-command option, at least one of them would apply Kenshi's patch
(which apparently works) to d-i. Was my mistake an assumption that any
of them would do more than demand? (have any of them even, including
one of the noisier posters on this list who commented in that thread,
done any of the bug-tested he widely requested?)

snipped

 the decision was made that no, it won't be touched for jessie

 which sounds to me as if such a change is not going to happen soon.

That I strongly suspect is correct - but not for the same reasons.

Re: XDG Standard is not evil (was: Re: Why focus on systemd?)

2014-12-02 Thread berenger . morel

Le 27.11.2014 03:04, Serge a écrit :
Later some people started to abuse those directories and put there 
files,
that never supposed to be there. Those people don't really think 
about
standards or unification. Usually they just enable displaying hidden 
files
in their file manager, see a lot of dotfiles in a home directory and 
think
that this is wrong. They start searching how to fix this, find 
xdg

basedir-spec, and use it as an excuse for moving ~/.appname files, to
~/.config/appname, or worse, split them among .config, .local, 
.cache...


If only rogues can put their configuration files in a subdirectory of a 
common directory, then every application is a rogue, since all 
applications put their configuration files in the $HOME directory or any 
of it's subdirectories.


The point is that, applications using $HOME instead of $XDG_CONFIG_HOME 
does not only put their configuration there, but all their files. So, 
thanks to those ones, you will have things like: .bashrc, .bash_history, 
.dmenu_cache, .prxAEIHar (try to guess what's this file? I myself have 
no idea... reading it, it seems it's related to xosview?) etc.
Ok, now, you only want to save your configuration files. Which ones 
will you take? Or, for a reason you want to use an application which is 
not installed on your system, but in a remote file system that you can't 
access everytime. If this application puts everything in $HOME, then 
you'll have useless things on your local machine, but if it uses XDG 
directories, you can mount/bind/whatever the distant directory to a 
point in $XDG_CONFIG_HOME.


Another nice thing:
Imagine I use several softwares which are not pieces of an existing 
monolithic DE.
Imagine I would like to write an application to manage configuration of 
those applications I am using.
I will probably have to use the strategy design pattern[1] because 
configuration formats will differ (key=value in INI-style way, 
xml-erk-style format...) and have plug-ins to manage those formats, but 
there are quite common ways, easy to parse, like good ol' INI (like 
gftp, but you'll probably find many others lying around on your own 
computer), or ugly (my opinion) XML.
Ok, so, we sometimes have common formats, which might be used by 
several applications I use. So, maybe we could find some which shares 
common features? Like, for example, binding a shorcut to open a file 
(pretty common, right?) or move your character in an FPS game?
For this, I could ask my plug-ins to extract, in all configuration 
files of $XDG_CONFIG_HOME, everything which looks like being able to 
open a file (some regexes on the key's name should do the work in many 
cases), and refer the folder's name which contains the files to identify 
which software uses it.
Then, I could ask the user if he want to define a new shortcut for some 
specified set of applications (or to all? Why not?).
Ok, then, now, the user can have a way to configure everything on his 
computer, without those applications having been written to be integrate 
in any DE. Of course, DEs can use it too, but, I made the choice to not 
use such things, because I think that there is too much bloat.


This would be harder, by far, if every application just puts things, 
sometimes in $HOME/.application, or $HOME/.application.conf, or 
$HOME/.application/config or $HOME/.application/application.config (not 
to speak about those nasty rc files!).


Last but not least, it means that one could write a library to manage 
configuration files, which could be reused, because things goes in some 
predefined places, in a predefined order. No need to learn that 
.bash_profile is read before .profile... oh, sorry, bash does not uses 
XDG dirs.


So, I can see advantages. Several ones.

I'll try to find the problems now: the application have to be made 
correctly enough to not trust the content of an environment variable, 
because it may try to trick the software, for buffer overflows, code 
injections, or less dangerous things like behavior changing depending on 
the moment, if the application re-read the environment variable.

That's all I can find.

They don't think about /etc/xdg, they don't read FHS or other XDG 
standards,


Well... honestly, I would not follow FHS blindlessly, obviously. 
Because, well... it does not works on Microsoft Windows, first, which is 
a widely used system, and I prefer to make things portable (so I would 
use a different mechanism on windows than on Debian to read default 
configuration files) plus, FHS is not followed in the same way 
everywhere: in *BSD, I think the softwares you will install through the 
package manager will not go into /usr/bin, but in /usr/local/bin. On 
some linux distro, it may go in /opt. How could I know? Even UNIX-style 
OSes disagree!
About other XDG standards, well... I do not have to use dbus stuff to 
know what directory I should use to store my specific user's 
configuration, right?

Certainly simpler than examining the E(P)BRs for errors which would 
be

my next course of action if I had no backups of the disk.

(I suspect) There are at least two possible scenarios(?) which would
result in a problem that the OP is experiencing[*1]:-
;the OP accidentally overwrote an EBR i.e. created another extended
partition at some later point (1st sector of the extended partition?)
;a damaged sector containing an EBR

In the first case parted rescue may/should be able to fix the

The OP could probably get more info by checking the E(P)BRs. The 
problem

'might' be in the first or last E(P)BR (again, I 'suspect' Martin is
right about the looping)
Perhaps (from unreliable memory):-
dd if=/dev/sdc bs=512 count=1 skip=22026238 | hexdump -C
likewise with the last extended partition, and then the same on the
E(P)BRs 'might' show the error?

I note that's a lot of suspicions, mights, and guesses - but again, I
welcome input and correction.

First, sorry for delay and thanks for replies. I won't have time to fix 
this for now, I will try to find time ASAP. Not that I really mind the 
data which were on that disk, but it will allow me to tinker with 
partition tables and such things on which I do not have a good 
knowledge.
I had even no idea that logical partitions were a chained list, but now 
that you say it, it makes sense.


Also, what is EBR (or EPBR, which seems to be some sort of enhanced

testdisk, which was able to find partitions. Lot of them, in facts, 
included lot of... removed partitions (I did a lot of experiments on 
that disk before). Plus, I have no idea about how to ask it (testdisk)

Files in /etc are usually conffiles, which are not removed on upgrade by

If removal is what you want, see dpkg-maintscript-helper's rm_conffile
for code which will enable you to safely remove the conffile.
[Alternatively, if this is a private package, and you're sure that
test1.conf will never be needed, you can unconditionally remove it in

Well, actually, it does involve a little more than downloading

Re: bind9 needs sometimes a restart after resume from suspend

2014-12-02 Thread Bob Proulx
Karl E. Jorgensen wrote:
 I wonder... What exactly does bind not responding mean? any command
 that reproduces that would be handy.

 As this is happening in relation to suspend/resume, this would imply
 that network interfaces go down and up too. So perhaps bind is failing
 to detect the re-arrival of network interfaces?

 The output of a command like sudo netstat -nlp | grep bind while
 bind is not responding would be instructive. And then compare/contrast
 with the scenario of a working bind...

I think that is a good debugging direction.  For reasons I haven't
looked into BIND will bind to specific addresses.  There is always
127.0.0.1:53.  Plus there will be one for each interface.

Try:

  $ netstat -na | awk '$NF==LISTEN/:53/'

With this example output from a system.

  tcp0  0 192.168.2.34:53 0.0.0.0:*   LISTEN
  tcp0  0 127.0.0.1:530.0.0.0:*   LISTEN
  tcp6   0  0 :::53684:::*LISTEN
  tcp6   0  0 :::53   :::*LISTEN

It may be that something is dropping the network offline and the
suspend-resume is simply cycling the network off and on again and
restoring the network connection.  Maybe the root cause isn't BIND but
rather that the network has gone offline.

  $ ip addr show | awk '$1==inet'
inet 127.0.0.1/8 scope host lo
inet 192.168.2.34/24 brd 192.168.230.255 scope global br0

I would also want to know what is in /etc/resolv.conf to know if it is
configured for the local nameserver.  And also what hosts entry is
listed in /etc/nsswitch.conf to see how it is configured.

  $ grep nameserver /etc/resolv.conf
  nameserver 127.0.0.1

  $ grep hosts /etc/nsswitch.conf
  hosts:  files dns

Lastly this *shouldn't* be related to any DNS lookups but the contents
of /etc/hosts is the files part in the above.  It is possible that
contents of /etc/hosts might be confusing the issue of thinking bind
isn't working properly.  Shouldn't be since it apparently works after
a suspend-resume but mentioning it here for completeness anyway.

boot fails on jessie on Acer Travelmate

2014-12-02 Thread Pierre Couderc

Hello

I have a problem with  jessie : my Acer Travelmate (P253) refuses to boot.

I have used 2 methods :
1- install wheezy, all is ok, I boot and boot again.  I change it to 
jessie (following standard instructions) : I can boot no more
2- I have used net installer debian-jessie-DI-b2-amd64-netinst.iso . 
Same problem.


There is no message, but it seems that the HDD is not seen and the PC 
tries to boot on the network.


I have repeated many times the problem, so I suppose it is not a mistake 
of mine.
I think that it did boot correctly with wheezy, but a regression in 
jessie creates the problem.


1- what am I missing ?
2- if it is a bug, in what package should I declare it ?

I am willing to help to fix the bug, if any.

Thank you in advance

That will list out the files from that package along with the checksum

Getting a custom package into a new system early in the install process

2014-12-02 Thread Ross Boylan
I have a customized package, adduser, that I want to get into new VM's
early in the wheezy installation process.  In particular, it must
happen before installing the debian basic system tools (DBST
hereafter) recommended when the installer gets to task selection.  The
modified adduser tweaks the UID/GID assignments and the DBST
installation creates some of those incorrectly.


The rest of this message gives some approaches I've thought of and
problems with each.

My first thought was that I could point the installer at the host
machine and have a thin cache there that would use my adduser if asked
for that, and otherwise forward requests to somewhere else. But the
closest thing I've found is that I could set up an alternate
repository with the package.(1)  Unfortunately, debootstrap only can
use one repository
(https://bugs.debian.org/cgi-bin/bugreport.cgi?bug=76).

At task selection the regular apt mechanisms may be in use, in which
case adding repositories to sources.list would work.  How could I
intervene to modify the sources.list in time?

Alternately I could take an installer disk image and modify it. I've
been using netinst, which I don't think has many (any?) regular debs
on it, as opposed to udebs.  Perhaps I should try some fatter image
and tweak the archive.

It's also possible that if I skipped even the base packages at the
task step things would be OK.  I know that if I debootstrap a system
and avoid installing extras the result is OK (i.e., not IDs allocated
in a way that conflicts with my desired scheme). But it's not clear
how I could install those packages later; the list of tasks under
aptitude does not include a base packages task.  Maybe it's all
essential packages?

Thanks for any help.

Ross Boylan

(1) And presenting a merged view of a synthetic repository with one
package replaced would be tricky, because various master files would
need to be different from upstream to avoid security problems with the
modified package.

No... I kind of figure that deboostrap should actually work properly, 
and that as a core piece of system code, the maintenance team should 
care enough to actually fix this kind of bug.  It was sitting there long 
enough.  That, in itself, is a datapoint for me in making decisions 
about future reliance on Debian.

I don't know what the standard instructions are?

If you can install wheezy with a minimum install, no packages other
than what you need to get a bootable system, and you're doing a net
install.

By only installing the minimum packages on the install of wheezy, you
don't get a lot of stuff left behind from the change to jessie.

On the reboot ***after*** removing the CD/USB stick or whatever, just go
into your /etc/apt/sources.list and change every instance of wheezy to
jessie.

Save the file and the do an apt-get update  and  apt-get upgrade. When
this is complete and everything is configured. Reboot.

Should then be fine.

Like I say: if nothing has changed in the last couple of months since I
installed a jessie system on a clean machine. This way has always worked
for me in the past, but your mileage may vary.

Best of luck,

Strange indeed. 

Update, so I have found, is only one pass. Upgrade is also only one
pass, unless you do apt-get dist-upgrade after upgrade. That will often
bring in new packages or want to remove some.

If your bandwidth drops out or is particularly slow you might need to
upgrade a couple of times, but you should get a message that the server
wasn't found or lost etc..

I have never had your problem?

But then things might have changed recently, and I don't have to install
any Debian system for anyone at the moment so can't test it.

Have you tried a different mirror? I sometimes need to do that because
there is work being done on the one I use and it delivers an error
message telling me that the packages aren't signed? Or just wait.

Otherwise my apologies for I have no idea what else might be the matter.

Hope you can resolve it or someone who actually has some idea about
what's causing this speaks up.

Hi Pierre,

you might want to dig further into this, as I can't see how a developer 
could fix the error you are experiencing without more information. Have 
you tried chrooting into the unbootable system from an install cd's 
rescue mode? Is there anything suspicious in the logs?


When exactly does the boot-up stall? You don't even see the GRUB menu, 
do you?


Have you tried with another boot loader? Last time I installed, LILO was 
still available for selection from expert install iirc. If the system 
boots with LILO, you would have narrowed down the problem quite a bit.


If you do get to GRUB but booting fails afterwards, you can try adding 
debug flags to your kernel options, see:
https://wiki.archlinux.org/index.php/boot_debugging This link is for 
Arch, so be careful, not every last bit also applies to Debian, but it 
was the most comprehensive guide I could find now.


Again, I don't think filing a bug without any info but it doesn't work 
will get your problem solved.


Good luck,
Simon

 No one is forcing you to stick with systemd. The fork is just silly.
 Another way to look at it is forward planning for the release after Jessie,
 when systemd may well become compulsory...
 Or going beyond what is offered in Debian… like making GNOME installable 
 without having any systemd related package installed.



The systemd package is just a small part of systemd. I'd like to remove
