[DNG] postgres
Hello all.
What is the proper way to report a problem with a package?
I made an account at git.devuan.org, but didn´t find a project that
seemed appropiate.
Last week I upgraded several debian Xen DomU´s (from wheezy) and
installed a Dom0, all with devuan,
they are working fine, but there were a couple glitches.
One is with postgres, which is running, but complained during the
upgrade that it doesn´t
know the debian version, the script that complains is
/usr/share/postgresql-common/supported-versions,
and here is a patch to fix it:
*** supported-versions 2016-05-26 19:10:18.387175510 -0500
--- supported-versions.orig 2016-05-26 19:07:13.767175510 -0500
*** default() {
*** 59,67
[dD]ebian)
debian "$RELEASE"
;;
- [dD]evuan)
- devuan "$RELEASE"
- ;;
*)
echo "supported-versions: WARNING! Unknown distribution:
$DISTRO" >&2
if echo $ID_LIKE | egrep '(^| )ubuntu($| )' > /dev/null;
then
--- 59,64
*** debian_backports() {
*** 150,171
esac
}
- devuan() {
- case "$1" in
- 1|1.*) # Jessie
- /bin/echo -e "9.4"
- ;;
- testing | unstable)
- /bin/echo -e "9.4"
- ;;
- *)
- echo "supported-versions: WARNING: Unknown Devuan release:
$1" >&2
- /bin/echo -e "$DEFAULT"
- ;;
- esac
- }
-
-
pgdg() {
case $1 in
testing | unstable)
--- 147,152
The other problem was with samba-common, but it was discussed on the
list already.

I just had an hour to spare, so I thought I'd quickly whip up a crude walk-through for a "minimalist"[1] Devuan JWM/LXDM. It may serve as a starting point for a more elaborate write up for installing a "fancy" JWM desktop installation. Here goes, use at will: --8<--- How To Install A Minimalist Devuan JWM+LXDM Desktop Environment --- 1. Install the Devuan base system. Follow the installer defaults, but select the preferred locale settings and enter the user account details. Do not select a desktop environment! 2. After the reboot, login as root. 3. Add to /etc/apt/sources.list the following line: deb http://auto.mirror.devuan.org/merged ascii main 4. Issue the following commands to install lxdm: # apt-get update # apt-get --no-install-recommends install lxdm 5. Remove from sources.list the line added in step 3. 6. Issue the following command to install JWM: # apt-get --no-install-recommends install jwm xorg menu 7. Reboot the system: # reboot 8. In the LXDM login screen select "Jwm" for the Desktop (it will "stick") and login with your user account. 9. To shut down or reboot the system, terminate JWM via "Exit" from the JWM menu, and then use the LXDM "Quit" menu. --->8-- [1] Uses ~1.1GB of disk space on an AMD64 machine!

It's really hard to "steel" from FOSS, unless you try to make it proprietary. Explaining how to use it is not a problem. -- hendrik > > Anyway, over the weekend i'll try to put the things together.

Mainly, what i did was about jwm as a desktop environment. Since it is for me personally, i had no retention to "steel" from other installations/distros, but i do not know, if this is "politically" correct, eventhough we're always talking about FOSS (?).
