Re: [Trisquel-users] System backup snapshots
When I said "to install Timeshift", I meant to build it from source.
Re: [Trisquel-users] System backup snapshots
This message is not a complaint. He says it is fixed now and an up-to-date gnutls should be in the repo shortly. Apparently I was close to be able to install Timeshift in Trisquel, but now I don't know if there is already an available solution, if new problems appeared or if I just simply have to wait for some more time. Please let me know if anyone has any news or suggestion. Thanks!
Re: [Trisquel-users] System backup snapshots
Really nice news, thank you. I understand there is no need to report the bug anymore and I will shortly be able to keep trying my installation.
Re: [Trisquel-users] System backup snapshots
I just asked quidam about this. Apparently, gnutls is supposed to be backported from Ubuntu bionic, but since 3.5.18-1ubuntu1 in 2018 new versions have not been getting automatically built. According to quidam it may have been an issue with GPG keys. He says it is fixed now and an up-to-date gnutls should be in the repo shortly. Btw, I only tuned into the meeting briefly to report this issue, but it appeared that they were working on the fonts-ubuntu issue, so hopefully that should be fixed soon as well.
Re: [Trisquel-users] System backup snapshots
> For security-critical packages such as libgnutls30, it is a significant problem: if you would install the version from Debian Buster and would not manually update it, it would stay at the present version until you update to Trisquel 10. Trisquel's version of libgnutls is not receving security updates either. Compare Ubuntu's [changelog][1] to the [versions][2] available in Trisquel.

> The same happens if I try to install libgnutls-dev on my system. It looks like a bug... Yes, [first reported][1] in early 2019. Welcome to Trisquel. [1]: https://trisquel.info/en/issues/25393
Re: [Trisquel-users] System backup snapshots
Magic explanations!
Re: [Trisquel-users] System backup snapshots
At http://jenkins.trisquel.info/makeiso-etiona/iso/ I see there are Triskel and Trisquel iso files, what's the difference?
Re: [Trisquel-users] System backup snapshots
"What about installing it from Debian's current stable (buster) repository?" So, I guess that was some kind of misunderstanding and there is no way to install Timeshift in Trisquel8 from Buster's repository. Please correct me if I'm wrong.
Re: [Trisquel-users] System backup snapshots
timeshift is only available in Debian 10 (buster) or later, or Ubuntu 19.10 (eoan) or later. If you want to install timeshift from Trisqual's repository, it will be available in Trisquel 10 (based on Ubuntu 20.04 LTS). ETA: 2-3 years (Trisquel 9 hasn't been released yet).
Re: [Trisquel-users] System backup snapshots
Thanks. If you think it is worth it to report the bug, and you also know how and where, please let me know.
Re: [Trisquel-users] System backup snapshots
That's ok, I guess I can trust Debian. But that link is for Buster, that's the latest Debian, isn't that a problem? Thanks
