apt-get remove --purge \
`dpkg --get-selections | grep i386 | awk '{print $1}'`

followed by

dpkg --remove-architecture i386

Debian's wiki says to use apt-get:
https://wiki.debian.org/DebianUpgrade. Also see
https://www.debian.org/doc/manuals/debian-faq/uptodate.html .

Maybe it's time for a complete refresh of those documents.

This is not the first time this has happened.  You need to run
"apt update" once.  This will "accept" the change, whereas "apt-get update"
does not.

After this one instance of apt, you can go back to apt-get.

Thanks for Debian ^^^

Removing i386 architecture

[paulf]

Folks:

In order to install steam from the Debian repo, I followed the
directions to:

dpkg --add-architecture i386

prior to the installation. Turns out steam wouldn't run my game, so I
uninstalled it. Now I don't need the i386 architecture, so I dutifully
did:

dpkg --remove-architecture i386

I received this error message:

dpkg: error: cannot remove architecture 'i386' currently in use by the
database

So if anyone can help me remove i386, I'd appreciate it.

Paul

Again, please reply to the debian-user list.


Again, computer technical support requires facts. This means console 
sessions.  Please use script(1) to capture your console sessions (see 
below).



Please connect the computer to an AC adapter and connect the AC adapter 
to an AC receptacle.  Please verify that the AC adapter is operating and 
providing power to the computer.



Looking at the available manuals:

https://support.hp.com/us-en/product/hp-compaq-6830s-notebook-pc/3688712/manuals


I see the "Computer Setup User Guide" (c01892653.pdf).  Follow the 
instructions "Starting Computer Setup" on page 1:


"To start Computer Setup, follow these steps:
1. Turn on or restart the computer, and then press esc while the
   “Press the ESC key for Startup Menu” message is displayed at the
   bottom of the screen.
2. Press f10 to enter BIOS Setup."


Verify or set the following setting:

-> System Configuration
 -> Device Configurations
  -> Fan always on while connected to an AC outlet -> Enable


Then save the setting per "Navigating and selecting in Computer Setup" 
(page 3):


"To save your changes and exit Computer Setup menus, click the Save
icon in the lower-left corner of the screen, and then follow the on-
screen instructions.
– or –
Use the tab key and the arrow keys to select File > Save changes and
exit, and then press enter.

This is not the first time this has happened.  You need to run
"apt update" once.  This will "accept" the change, whereas "apt-get update"
does not.

After this one instance of apt, you can go back to apt-get.

A litle bit of history: the reasone we HAVE codenames is to sort this out.

There wasn't a Debian 1.0 because someone put out a "1.0" when there was 
just about 0.97.

Using testing and stable leads to a flag day when there's a major release.
If you tie to a codename, this can follow on for up to five years.

All the very best, as ever,

Perhaps I've ben mistaken, but the files in /etc/udev/rules.d are not the

The one in /etc, as David said. Unless it doesn't exist.

This is actually the classical pattern of "layered configuration", which
is widespread in the UNIX world. You see that often with a system config
which can be overridden by a user config.

Sometimes you have even three layers: distro (e.g. lib), local (etc) and
user.


Thanks for the clarification Tomas. That would intimate the search
order would be /home/$usr/someplace, /etc/someplace, /lib/someplace.
Is that correct?


Not only did I give the priority for the task you're tackling
(which BTW would not concern an individual user's directory tree),
I also gave you the reference: man udev.

What is your problem??


man udev is as opaque as you can make what looks like plain English.


I find it hard to believe that the exams you're always talking about
having passed are any easier than understanding:


The last of those tests, was in 1972, 51 years ago.  I finally did get a 
GED about 25 years ago. My now departed 3rd wife had a degree in music, 
and said it was embarrassing to tell her friends her hubby only had an 
8th grade education. Now I'm 88 and fading which I'll also admit to.


But I'll readily admit its been one hell of a ride to get this far. ;o)>

Pure serendipity has put me in places and times that made history, so I 
also have all these "war stories" I occasionally bore folks with.


  "All rules files are collectively sorted and processed in lexical
   order, regardless of the directories in which they live. However,
   files with identical filenames replace each other.
   Files in /etc/ have the highest priority, files in /run/
   take precedence over files with the same name under /usr/.
   This can be used to override a system-supplied rules file
   with a local file if needed"

But paraphrasing myself, not only did I give you the reference,
I also gave you the priority for the task you're tackling:
  "Files under /etc/ take priority over those under /usr/lib/
   when their filenames are the same."


Yup, you did all of that, thank you David.

Take care & stay well.

Cheers,
David.

I have serious doubts about that.  I'm sure that *in Debian*, virtually
all scripts have been fixed to use the correct syntax for their shebang.
But outside of Debian?  The world's a mess.  There's no way to even know
how many broken scripts are out there.

An admin's choice to use /bin/sh -> bash on their system is usually done
to work around broken third-party scripts.  (This is what's so confusing
about S M's part of the thread -- their motivation is entirely different.)

At the bare minimum, this change needs to be documented in the official
release notes and the dash NEWS file, which is currently giving incorrect
information to users.

It would also be *nice* to have an explanation, and perhaps some risk
analysis about what may happen if an admin decides to change the symlink
despite the unsupported nature of that change.

I suspect we'll only get the latter from users who are brave enough to
try it, and dedicated enough to document their discoveries.

That is true.  However, you can avoid that by diverting the /bin/sh
symlink which tells dpkg to unpack it under a different name.  To do so,
you have to first remove the diversion that dash itself sets up.  The
following six commands change the /bin/sh symlink permanently to bash
and also take care of the manpage:

# dpkg-divert --remove --no-rename /usr/share/man/man1/sh.1.gz
# dpkg-divert --remove --no-rename /bin/sh
# ln -sf bash.1.gz /usr/share/man/man1/sh.1.gz
# ln -sf bash /bin/sh
# dpkg-divert --add --local --no-rename /usr/share/man/man1/sh.1.gz
# dpkg-divert --add --local --no-rename /bin/sh

The version of dash in experimental no longer diverts the /bin/sh
symlink itself, so in the future the first two steps will not be
necessary.  The dash maintainer wanted to include this change in
bookworm, but was turned down by the release team[1].

Unfortunately neither the Debian changelog of dash nor the commit
message for this change[2] give an explanation.  Removing the debconf
handling certainly simplifies the package, and there are not too many
scripts around that start with "#!/bin/sh" and fail to work with dash -
these are the reasons I can think of.

There is also an open bug against the release notes[3] filed by the dash
maintainer.

Cheers,
   Sven

I didn't mean this to be a discussion about my particular wants or needs (As I
said, I have that sorted out already). I was just raising a question about the
reasons for this change as it removes a theoretically harmless option that was
there before.

Why?  Why not simply chsh to /bin/bash if that's what you want as your
interactive shell?

Are you somehow relying on bash's disabling of certain features when
invoked as "sh", in interactive mode?  I don't understand that at all.



Yes. POSIX-compliance is a feature to me. I'd actually be fine with
using dash itself but the lack of command line editing and filename
completion is a deal-breaker to me.

There's no point debating any further.  S M has a unique desire, which

Estas opciones me parece que ameritan investigarse/probarse.

Otra variante más sencilla puede ser buscar en el sitio de LineageOS (creo
que es la distro abierta más popular basada en AOSP, con la cual te ahorras
de tener que compilar el sistema) celulares compatibles que además puedas
adquirir (en mi caso un Moto E LTE 2015), y combinar el repositorio de
F-Droid para apps libres con la app de Aurora Store (que está en F-Droid)
para apps del Google Play Store.

Con todos los recaudos del caso, es otra alternativa posible.

Just to be sure before you reinstall can you provide
exim -bP | grep syslog

Hi Michel and al,

After a few days with this configuration, same errors are still present.

I guess I'll have either to reinstall or go the postfix way.

Have a nice day,

steve

if you add reload but still get the error try restart, I don't know if
the reload free the files


Since this is a vanilla setup, I might as well uninstall and purge exim4
and re-install it (or postfix), what do you think?


Yes I wonder why debian don't add the postrotate.
But there is a specific package exim4-config. So you can do
dpkg-reconfigure exim4-config
you should ask to use syslog and not direct logging
it will add log_file_path in config files (you can check after)

I only use postfix for me and clients for a long time, so don't ask me :
postfix rules :)

Two problems here:

Other sessions are unaware of the change made in one; and
the point of this thread is to find a location where Gene's
".profile" file is run regardless of how he logs in. This
doesn't test that.
