Re: [Tails-dev] How to build tails for testing purposes?

2021-07-21 Thread Hans
Sorry, it is me again. There is so much to learn. I am now able· to get clear 
with these 
vagrant, rake and virsh stuff. That is a great step and I am happy, I can help 
myself now.

But I believe, I now stumbled over a new issue with broken package. For me it 
looks like 
some settings are wrong in the pre-image file. As far as I understood, the 
crash is in the 
step, where the basic image is build, or say, filled with the packages.

This is the output, just at the basic installation step:

- snap --

Ok, the directory here called /root is not the /root of my system, so it must 
be in the 
imagefile, that is mounted /dev/loop (I suppose so, am I wrong?).

What I do not understand, is that ioctl, but everything is looking for me as a 
problem with 
rights. However, I am building as root, so I should have all the rights, I 
need. 

I am sure, I have missed something. 

For the explanation, I am building on an extra ssd, which is mounted 
to /space, but this worked on building kali-linux. So this should work here, 
too. Especially 
at this step of building.

Any idea, what I am doing wrong? Or is this just a bug???

Thanks for being so patient.

Best

Hans

[Tails-dev] bridges

2021-07-21 Thread pathes.mathes--- via Tails-dev
Hello. There is no place to store the obfs4 bridges in my Tor browser; the 
instructions about Settings, Tor, Store a bridge don't apply to my Tor browser. 
Since I do not have persistent storage setup, not sure how I could store the 
obfs4 bridges anyhow. Could possibly write-in the obfs4 at start-up but they 
are kind of long.

Thanks,

Aristophrenes

[Tails-dev] Security Upgrade

I think Tails should have a BLANK homepage. Loading a website with Javascript 
enabled is EXPLOIT FRIENDLY NO website should be loaded, Javascript should 
be Disabled, Security shield maximum or at least medium/Safer by default.

Hans:

Yeah, yeah, sigh, it's me again


Now I am running into a new issue, but I believe, something external happened.


For learning I removed all the downloaded things completely. Then I deleted 
also ~/.vagrant.d/ in my home and started from the beginning with a new git 
clone and a new, but unchanged build.


The proper way to reset and start over is to run: rake clean_all


But now there is a new issue, related to vagrant. Please take a look at the 
last output.


 snip -

Volume for domain is already created. Please run 'vagrant destroy' first.


The basebox in ~/.vagrant.d are unpacked and the virtual machine images imported by 
libvirt and stored somewhere else, hence the "already created" above.

List images with:

virsh -c qemu:///system vol-list default

Detele with:

virsh -c qemu:///system vol-delete --pool default VOLUME_NAME

So I suspect you will fix your issue with:

virsh -c qemu:///system vol-delete --pool default 
tails-builder-amd64-buster-20210710-de2318f3ae_vagrant_box_image_0.img


I wasa not lazy, and searched the web. vagrant destroy does not work, and 
vagrant global-status is telling me, there is no session running.


I believe you! Our documentation about this is a bit lacking, and naturally 
we'd be thrilled to receive your patches improving them! :)

OTOH, I don't think there was any good reason for you to start over like you 
did.

Good luck!

Re: [Tails-dev] Proposal: migrate our public chat rooms to another friendly XMPP server (#17956)

Well, in this case, what I meant with "minimal fact checking" is
reading the email thread you're replying to, and following the links
it contains. To be clear, I don't expect anyone to *search* for such
information when it's my job to make it readily available :)

Thanks! I appreciate this.

There's no concrete plan indeed. We did not have this conversation yet
so nobody can tell for sure if/when we're going to migrate away from
XMPP (altough if we pick systemli.org, this does tip the balance quite
a bit — see below). I personally wish we'll migrate both our public
and internal chat rooms away from XMPP within a year or 2, which
indeed makes me want to spend the least possible amount of work on
picking the XMPP server we'll migrate to next week: I need my work to
be meaningful to me.

… for another couple years but maybe not much longer ⇒ sooner or later
this will give us a deadline to migrate away from XMPP (unless we pick
another server again, but please let's not do that again in 2 years!),
which IMO is a benefit, but I would understand if some other people
saw it as a drawback.

> I'm available to start test on this.

Great! If you or someone else wants to test this by the end of the
week, you need to be aware that one needs a systemli.org account to
create a chat room (MUC) on their server.
