It appears that Mr. Lee's corporate entity "freenode Limited" has,
at least for now, Registrant status for three Internet domains,

to what until now was called Freenode and, probably by the end of Thursday,
his time, his three Internet domains will point to no Internet
infrastructure, as it will all disaffiliate and reconstitute itself as
"LiberaChat" -- as is happening in real time as I write this.



there are lawyers-threats involved and he took infra too. so it's not 
that simple/light as you're presenting it.

announced here as well : https://twitter.com/freenodestaff

what's most troublesome is that thousands of user data passed control 
without any info/consent.. to the crown prince - mt gox scammer(!)



p.s. most of the "spelling" paradigms you wrote, are not like that.. but 
probably OT..

trump facts in comparison :

- white supremacy BS, check

you're right though. he's not hitler. he goes by a different name. but 
not all atrocities in human history have been hitler's "privilege". and 
the above are not limited to trump either. potus's being the ones with 
the biggest ego/economy/gunz of our times, have most of these as part of 
their presidential routine...


why i write these?
1) i'm human
2) i read books and like history very much. so i can learn from past

Hi to all,
today while reading online my selection of international newspapers on
the german www. faz.net I've found this little article which made my
antennas vibrate, link is:

https://www.faz.net/aktuell/wirtschaft/reform-der-produkthaftung-verbraucher-sollen-vor-schaeden-durch-softwarefehler-geschuetzt-werden-17330921.html

text in german is:

Kunden sollen nach dem Willen der Verbraucherschutzministerkonferenz
(VSMK) künftig besser vor Schäden durch Softwarefehler geschützt
werden. Der Bund solle entsprechende Maßnahmen prüfen, sagte
Schleswig-Holsteins Verbraucherschutzminister Claus Christian Claussen
(CDU) nach dem Ende der Konferenz am Freitag. Zudem solle das
Produkthaftungsrecht künftig auch digitale Schäden umfassen, darunter
auch Datenverluste.

Das Produkthaftungsgesetz basiere auf einer EU-Richtlinie von 1985 und
sei angesichts des technischen Fortschritts nicht mehr zeitgemäß, so
Claussen weiter - besonders mit Blick auf die wachsende Bedeutung von
Software im Vergleich zu Hardware. Clausen sagte: „Wir wollen, dass ein
verbraucherfreundliches, digitales Produkthaftungsrecht eingeführt
wird.“ Das müsse vom Bund auf den Weg gebracht werden. Er sei
zuversichtlich, dass die Verbraucherschutzminister-Konferenz den Bund
bittet, entsprechende Vorschläge zu machen.

Auch die Überwachung des Lebensmittelhandels muss nach Claussens
Überzeugung an die aktuellen Entwicklungen angepasst werden.
Lebensmittel würden zunehmen über das Internet bestellt und nach Hause
geliefert. „Die klassischen Überwachungsmethoden greifen da natürlich
nicht durch.“ Auch hier solle die Bundesregierung tätig werden und
Rechtsgrundlagen schaffen.

Rudimental google translation is:

According to the wishes of the Conference of Consumer Protection
Ministers (VSMK), customers should be better protected from damage
caused by software errors in the future. The federal government should
examine appropriate measures, said Schleswig-Holstein's consumer
protection minister Claus Christian Claussen (CDU) after the end of the
conference on Friday. In addition, product liability law should also
include digital damage in the future, including data loss.

According to Claussen, the product liability law is based on an EU
directive from 1985 and is no longer up-to-date in view of technical
progress - especially with a view to the growing importance of software
compared to hardware. Clausen said: "We want consumer-friendly, digital
product liability law to be introduced." That must be initiated by the
federal government. He is confident that the consumer protection
ministers' conference will ask the federal government to make
appropriate proposals.

According to Claussens, the monitoring of the food trade must also be
adapted to current developments. Groceries are increasingly being
ordered online and delivered to your home. “Of course, the classic
monitoring methods do not work.” Here, too, the federal government
should act and create a legal basis.

So the first question that arises is:
how could open source and free software projects ensure
protection from damage up to data loss if actually even proprietary
software comes with no warranty at all?

For example Microsoft:

https://docs.microsoft.com/en-us/legal/windows-server/system-insights-eula

DISCLAIMER OF WARRANTY. THE SOFTWARE IS LICENSED “AS IS.” 

YOU BEAR THE

RISK OF USING IT. MICROSOFT GIVES NO EXPRESS WARRANTIES, GUARANTEES, OR

browser delays could be due to slow dns resolving.. i'd also suggest a 
local caching resolver as ralph suggested...


do you ping anything while on these delays? if you're losing many 
packages, then i'd call ISP first to check dsl line..


some tools for network traffic : iftop, nload, nethogs, vnstat (all 
available in repos)...

`netstat -tu` can show you all active network connections.

i'm sure you can find more monitoring tools to get numbers, just by 
searching around... (eg. https://wiki.debian.org/NetworkMonitoring)..

doing it?)



only thing i can think of, is by installing  unverified firmware files 
from a removable drive during installation, mainly because i'm not sure 
how verifiable firmware blobs are...
every other package (including a DE) is always installed from 
authenticated sources/mirrors (and mostly reproducible these days), so

Is debfoster smart(er) about asking what you want to keep?  As in asking
you about the packages that keep most of the other packages installed
first (rather than going through potential removals alphabetically)?


yes.

debfoster only asks about installed packages : "Keep, Y/N" and keeps all 
dependant installed packages on "Y" , or adds another question about 
keeping dependencies on a "N".
after first succesful run, you're only asked about newly installed 
packages from that moment on..


debfoster installation has no real dependencies (just already installed 
libc iirc) and it's just one command to run (=easy to remember).

The first time around, there will be quite a long list of packages that

installed the list can be several tens of packages.  Look for the
"top-level" kind of packages to `apt-mark manual`, things like
task-xfce-desktop, so you don't have to add a long list of packages.
You can `apt-mark auto` them later and fine-tune your list of manually
installed packages.

i believe debfoster package can do the same thing (if i understand

i'm all in for diy, but my house dsl connection isn't helping. i agree, 
dns is very easy to setup, but performance-wise is terrible if you're in 
some low latency connection...it's slow and so are all queries...
tried that in the past, it's not worth the "torture" of waiting seconds

that's why i'm forwarding to "trusted" no-log policy servers, with some

there any way you can remove elogind with

yes,
running `apt purge elogind` in testing/ceres brings in consolekit instead.

Waterfox was sold to an advertising company last year..
probably not a good example for firefox forks & adblocking.. :)

don't know about adguard, but ublock origin works fine with :
firefox, firefox-esr, icecat, basilisk, waterfox, seamonkey, torbrowser.
some of those forks use latest versions of ublock origin, others use 
legacy versions :

noscript has a "legacy" version too : https://noscript.net/getit

maybe too heavy on resources..


there's the option of adblocking domains in /etc/hosts, or with a local

in my opinion a home connection server smtp+imap/pop will not be very
usable.  most rbl's block dynamic addresses so you won't be able to
deliver much...
i'd suggest a host/vps online with a static ip for that..

in anycase, there are some scripts that simplify the process of setting
up an email, but probably need tweaking to work with Devuan. eg..:
https://mailinabox.email/
https://modoboa.org/en/
https://iredmail.org/
https://mailcow.email/

you could also setup a control panel software to set everything up for
you... (eg. webmin, ispconfig)..

note, that most common setup postfix/dovecot/spamassassin/clamav would
be really heavy on resources.. especially spamassassin+clamav.. so, you
might want to check rspamd as an alternative to sa..

aha, woke up a while ago, and filed the bug without really noticing this:
Depends: libsystemd0 (>= 246)

that makes sense -after reading above bug reports as well-, thanks for
the info :)

i'm not in favor of removing libsystemd0 completely in debian, i just

the password option is still available in beowulf, upgrade couldn't have
replaced /etc/ssh/sshd_config without warning, if that already had
"PasswordAuthenticate yes" .

so just use a local console to debug issue.. check /var/log/auth.log,
check if ssh is running, /etc/ssh/sshd_config settings, ~/.ssh
permissions ...

are you loggin in as root perhaps? default option for root logins is
"prohibit-password" in beowulf, meaning access as root with public key
only.. if that's the case, try logging as regular user and then sudo/su
to fix sshd_config and restart ssh daemon.

[plain text this time..]

bug report link, was about /var/cache, not /var/log (?).. anyway, the
default apparmor profile has this :

  # some people like to put logs in /var/log/named/ instead of having
  # syslog do the heavy lifting.
  /var/log/named/** rw,
  /var/log/named/ rw,

some people following net guides/migrating from older versions, already
used /var/log/bind/ or /var/log/bind8 or /var/log/bind9, or other custom
log path. they all fail with default apparmor profile.. so, one could
add (eg.) :

  /var/log/bind9/** rw,
  /var/log/bind9/ rw,

and everything would work..

in your example, "k" is for file lock, not sure it's needed in this case (?)

does running `/usr/sbin/dpkg-reconfigure` work?

that could happen because of a broken $PATH for root.

smells like apparmor..., check dmesg for DENIED messages.
if that's the case, you'll need to either remove/disable/put in complain
mode only, apparmor. or put a profile for the failing applications in
/etc/apparmor.d/.

is this safe to proceed and remove?

Re: [DNG] Anyone installed a jitsi server on Devuan?

2020-03-23 Thread Dimitris via Dng
easy to install with the quick install guide, but getting video/audio to
work is something i didn't manage.. tried opening all required ports,
but still.. gave it up, cause it was just play... (also because it works
with g-evil chrome/chromium best/only?)

using nextcloud talk atm for personal things, but community version has
some limits.. (max 4-5 people in video chat..).

---
there are many jitsi meet instances listed here (unofficial list) :
https://wiki.chatons.org/doku.php/la_visio-conference_avec_jitsi
and even more, if you look around..

there are also other non-corp DoH/DoT providers, so default cloudflare

generally, i don't find DoH a problem, i think it's a good measure for

MATE with Openbox is a lighter possibility too..
i've been changing DEs, DMs regurarly, but always find myself going back
to MATE. (lately i've tried enlightement... works well - a bit buggy)
most DEs are either buggy or feautureless. (will NOT try GNOME/KDE, i
kinda of think of those as systemd-like DEs, bloated to the bone.).

other than that, i'd say MATE covers most needed desktop features, and
XFCE comes shortly after..
LXDE is not abandoned, but it's missing stuff that you have to get from
other DEs (=download extra libs, packages..), same as LXQT which is very
interesting..
Trinity was very buggy last 2 times i tried it, completely unusable for
me..  (even though my first ever DE was kde3 and i wanted it to work for
old times sake... :D )

back to MATE, it now (versions > 1.24) offers official no-systemd
support for mate-session, so it's certainly a positive attitude, other
modern DEs lack..

just 2c,

i can confirm this, as mirror.stinpriza.org admin.
search.stinpriza.org is on the same ip4/6, but a completely different

had the same issue with mate.
iirc, consolekit is to blame. remove all related consolekit packages
first, and they'll be replaced by elogind ones. (if they don't, install
them by hand).
then dist-upgrade normally.

openrc, no-X, task-console-productivity, luks .

dist-upgraded from fresh 2.1 release to beowulf.
got a segmanation fault during openrc configuration on upgrade and
install failed.. no screenshots available, but it had something to do
with lvm2. so, upgraded lvm2 first, and everything else upgraded
smoothly afterwards.

i also remember dist-upgrade, bringing in libsystemd0 (not sure why),
but after manual installation of libelogind0 it was gone.

waterfox is not in devuan repos, so it's not a devuan thing, you should

in anycase, i'm running latest binary from antix repo and have no such

maybe you should check .xsession-errors, running waterfox from terminal,

i think the problem is there.. symlink(?) to non-existent file..

in a debian stretch system (got no ascii with spamassassin available),
this is a regular file, and /usr/include/sys/types.h doesn't exist..

# dpkg -S sys/types.h

occasionaly i'm also, using latest upstream roundcube (1.3.10 currently)

so i also uspect it has to do with dyne.org webmail specifically, not
