So strace normally directs its output to stderr. That's file descriptor 2. You can redirect it by the "2>file" gesture of the shell: $ strace echo hello 2>file hello $ cat file execve("/bin/echo", ["echo"], [/* 35 vars */]) = 0 brk(0) = 0x13ba000 ... exit_group(0) = ? +++ exited with 0 +++ Or you may use the mentioned -o option which will keep the tracee's stderr out of the file: $ strace -o file echo hello hello $ cat file ...

But how do you strace a program saving the output (of the stracing) in a logfile while you also save that program's output without making it part of the stracing? Say you go: $ strace -f wget --help You can clearly see the output of "wget --help" tailgated as part of the stracing (which, of course, you can parse out), but I want two separate log files. One for the stracing and the other for the actual output of that program you ran.

Are you saying that I can print to a printer which does not have PostScript? (All of my printers, which now are quite old, have PostScript.) P.S. I remember using LPR and the switch to LPRNG, and then the switch to CUPS. And now driverless CUPS. RLH

On a desktop debian 12.2 amd64 system with HP_LaserJet_P3010_Series_48E436 (ethernet), LaTeX documents composed with Emacs frequently print only up to a certain point (it varies with the document), and CUPS prints the error message: ERROR: typecheck OFFENDING COMMAND: known xdvi displays the document perfectly in its entirety.

All aviation works in UTC, to avoid problems when flights cross time zone boundaries, and to keep wide-area weather forecasts sane. Your average airline passenger never sees UTC, since airlines use it behind the scenes and convert it to local time for display purposes. (That's why you can see some strange intervals between departure and arrival times.) As a side note, a similar dichotomy applies to airport designators; passengers and baggage handlers only see the three-letter IATA codes (e.g. YYZ for Toronto), while flight plans are filed using the 4-letter ICAO codes (e.g. CYYZ for Toronto). For the most part, Canadian ICAO codes are the IATA code with a C in front, and American ICAO codes are the IATA code with a K in front - but there are exceptions. And ICAO codes cover all registered airports, not just those with scheduled airline service. -- /~\ Charlie Gibbs | Life is perverse. \ /| It can be beautiful - X I'm really at ac.dekanfrus | but it won't. / \ if you read it the right way. |-- Lily Tomlin

Hi.. This is Draft Email #2 for me for this thread. The first email is very long. I chopped off all of the tips and am only focusing on the following questions for now. Am starting this time with an apt query: $ apt-cache search reposync Got a potential hit! The package is called dnf-plugins-core. It looks interesting (to me). Its description is: Description-en: Core plugins for DNF, the Dandified Yum package manager This package enhances DNF with builddep, config-manager, copr, debug, debuginfo-install, download, needs-restarting, groups-manager, repoclosure, repograph, repomanage, reposync, changelog and repodiff commands. It's the only package that references reposync. I'll be downloading and poking at it as a personal Debian development learning adventure by comparing it to wget and rsync as referenced further below. If dnf-plugins-core does not work for some reason, here are some questions that might help Debian Users help you What are you actually trying to do? Might also be asked as.. what were you doing in the past? What exact command(s) were you using? Internet searching on "reposync" alone makes it look like you're trying to do what I have found that wget does. It worked for an LS (Linux From Scratch) short webpage of only links today. Wget also worked on a Debian repository related webpage that included child directories. Running "man rsync" references "URL" a few times, too, but I've not been successful with it in the past. This thread is a reminder of that feature so I'll be playing with it again later. It's always good to know more than one way to accomplish all Linux tasks. :) My other questions that will help Debian Users help you are. Which Debian directory are you asking about? Or is it even tied to debian(dot)org? If you're [pinging] a webpage that is not Debian and it's not too personal, what webpage are you trying to sync? A #1 question I have is... Where are the files you are trying to duplicate (the source files), and where are you duplicating those to (the intended target directory/destination)? Another way to ask that is: Are you duplicating from one personal computer to another, or are you trying to pull from an online Internet server's repository to download onto a personal computer? Or are you maybe even trying to do yet something else that is not mentioned above? Your answer(s) might make a difference in the command and flags you could use. As an example, that massively long Draft Email #1 I wrote earlier included this useful tip I just learned for my own usage today: $ wget -c --recursive --no-parent https://www.linuxfromscratch.org/lfs/downloads/development/ That lead came from StackOverflow: https://stackoverflow.com/questions/273743/using-wget-to-recursively-fetch-a-directory-with-arbitrary-files-in-it Just test drove it, and it did work as hoped. That "--no-parent" is telling wget to focus only on the current directory, e.g. for me the LFS "development" download webpage along with any possible child directories found there. Be aware that there can still be some extra junk come in, depending on what webpage is being tapped. The more text content and less HTML, the better. Wget does work as expected, does keep digging into child directories, too, because I just tested a Debian repository related webpage under /debian/dists. That's all I have for now. Just let us know... An aside to wget and rsync Developers: Thank you for your work! Between the two of your packages, it's a multi-times daily thing going on between us.

Be sure to read the other responses to that message. There's a weird timing issue caused by the fact that running "timedatectl" triggers a service process to run, unless one is already running. This service process only stays running for 30 seconds, and it only reads the /etc/localtime symlink when it starts up. So, if you've already got one running, it won't pick up a changed /etc/localtime. But if you wait until the current one dies, then the *next* one will. I have no idea why this subsystem was designed to work this way. It seems awkward to me, but I'll give them the benefit of the doubt for now -- there's probably *some* reason to do it this way, even if it's not immediately clear to me. > Is there a way to start the Linux kernel of a Debian Live running > instance enabling you to log the whole process (in a more in depth way > than dmesg) and then go "follow tcp" for each listed process in dmesg > as you do with wireshark? If you want to see what a process is doing, there's strace. It can even be told to follow all the children of a process (strace -f).

how to clone apt repository to newest only? Fedora/Red Hat will organize the repository by copying only the most recent packages from that distribution if you give it the "reposync --newest-only" option, but Debian doesn't seem to be able to do that. What can I do?

Re : Connexion réseau impossible pour certains logiciels
Bonjour à toutes et tous, Un grand merci pour votre aide. J’ai partiellement résolu le problème comme suit : Habituellement je change de graphical.target à multi-user.target et je rédige un .xinitrc en fct de l’environement que je veux. Avant d’avoir ce problème, je pouvais laisser x-session-manager et x-window-manager à leur valeur et lancer ce que je veux avec : exec /usr/bin/openbox-session Maintenant ça ne marche plus (si je fais ça les applications comme libreoffice mettent des plombes à démarrer en attendant un accès à internet). Pour contourner le problème j’ai configuré : x-session-manager → /usr/bin/openbox-session x-window-manager → /usr/bin/openbox Avec : update-alternatives --config x-session-manager Et dans .xinitrc, au lieu de : exec /usr/bin/openbox-session J’ai : . /etc/X11/Xsession Qui lance /usr/bin/openbox-session par son alternative. Bon ça marche « tout le monde » « voit » la connexion internet. Le problème est contourné, mais pas résolu, tant que je ne comprendrai pas comment le script dans /etc/X11/Xsession résout le problème et pourquoi ça bloque en lançant : exec /usr/bin/openbox-session Vos lumières sont les bienvenues, car il me semble que mon système est mal configuré. La dernière version du système d’installation de debian ne m’a pas configuré le fuseau horaire, il « disait » ne pas pouvoir le faire sans configurer le réseau, alors que le DVD d’installation est justement prévu pour une installation sans accès à internet. Je l’ai fait il y a quelque mois avec une version précédente (12.2 je crois) du DVD d’installation et ça a parfaitement fonctionné sans accès à internet… Mais cette fois (avec la 12.4) le système d’installation me ramenait constamment à Matériel de connexion réseau: https://www.debian.org/releases/stable/amd64/ch02s01.fr.html#network-cards Et j’ai dû m’y prendre à plusieurs reprises pour l’outrepasser.

If you're travelling in an aircraft, you don't _need_ to know ground time but you do need to know flight time against a reference time. The Royal Air Force keep to UTC wherever they are in the world for just this reason. Anything else is an offset against the reference: if all your Linux boxes have timestamps against the epoch - which can also be related to a human time if you *have* to - you have a reference there..
