Re: [DNG] [DN Offlist G] netman GIT project


Hi,

I'm adding:

lazbuild -B netman.lpr

to the debian/rules. Is it enough to build the frontend? I've never used 
Lazarus.


Thanks in advance,

Aitor.

My experience using gcc directly corroborates what KatolaZ said. This

The gcc command:

Re: [DNG] [DN Offlist G] netman GIT project


Hi Edward,

I thick you must change all the headers like:

#include "paths.h"
#include "automated_scanner.h"
#include "core_functions.h"
#include "caller.h"

etc... in the *.c files of the backend of netman by:

#include "../include/paths.h"
#include "../include/automated_scanner.h"
#include "../include/core_functions.h"
#include "../include/caller.h"

because they are not found by the compiler.

Cheers,

Aitor.

Hi all,

The additional ability to recognize wlan1, wlan2, wlan3, etc, in
something I will do as soon as I can.

Regarding the use of "iface wlan0 inet dhcp" in
/etc/network/interfaces, I have no other option unless someone really
versed in network configuration provides an alternative that works and
that doesn't disrupt the already working code.

I have already a germinating idea of how to implement support for
wlanN. This is by naming the essid files as wlanX_essid. This way only
the essid saving function and the frontend essid listing functions
would need to be changed. The connecting functions of the backend
would simply parse the filename to extract the device name, and it
would be done.

However, at this time of the year, I am very busy doing other work
besides programming for Devuan. At the moment, I am busy planting my
vegetables which cannot wait as that depends on the season, and a
couple of weeks makes a whole difference.

Hi aitor,

I think, the time has come to start thinking about producing a .deb
package for netman. However, we will have to use a post installation
script to add the line:

"iface wlan0 inet dhcp"

to /etc/network/interfaces. The script has also to create a new
directory under /usr/bin with the name netman ie  /usr/bin/netman will
hold both the frontend and the backend.

The SUID for backend must be changed to that belonging to root. I do
this as follows:
chown root:root backend
chmod u+s backend

A new directory under /etc/network with the name wifi must be created
i.e. /etc/network/wifi must be an existing directory.

Then, the final steps would be to create a launcher for netman, the
frontend. To enable automatic attempts at connecting basing on
installed essid files under /etc/network/wifi, the parameter
--auto-conn must be passed to netman upon invocation. --auto-conn need
not be used and netman would not attempt to connect without user
intervention. This feature is for those who want to control what
happens on their machine.

[DNG] Debugging netman auto-connect.


Hi Edward,

Consider a double pointer like a matrix (in algebra) witch one you don't 
know its dimension a priori.


An example: put the case that we are developing an application witch 
calculates the inverse of a matrix of dimensions NxM. The values of N 
and M will be determinated by the user and they are unknown a priori. If 
so, we declare a doble pointer:


float **ptr;

The application asks to the user the values of of the number of files 
(N) and columns (M), and according to them it reserves the "necessary 
and sufficient" memory:


ptr = (float**) malloc(files* sizeof(float*);

Hi all,

Hi all,

Take the case two mirrors, a complete Debian mirror in DEBIAN folder, 
and the merged packages in DEVUAN folder, containing both their 
corresponding /dists/ and /pool/. The following scripts build the /dist/ 
and /pool/ from the content of them, giving priority to Devuan. The 
script1 calls to the script2:


** SCRIPT1:

#!/bin/sh

find ./DEBIAN -name "*.dsc" -exec ./script2 {} \;

exit 0

** END OF THE SCRIPT1

** SCRIPT2:
#!/bin/sh

line1=${1%/*}
line2=${line1#*/}
line3=${line2#*/}

### The above lines converts
###./DEBIAN/pool/main/main/l/linux/linux_3.16.7-ckt11-1+deb8u3.dsc
### in /pool/main/main/l/linux
### The relationship betwen paths and sources is biyective


if [ -d ./DEVUAN/$line3 ];

then
 find ./DEVUAN -name "*.deb" -exec reprepro --ask-passphrase -b . -V -C 
main includedeb jessie {} \;
 find ./DEVUAN -name "*.udeb" -exec reprepro --ask-passphrase -b . -V

main includeudeb jessie {} \;
find ./DEBIAN -name "*.dsc" -exec reprepro --ask-passphrase -b . -V -C 
main includedsc jessie {} \;


exit 0

** END OF THE SCRIPT2

For each description file *.dsc found in the frist script, the second 
script searches in the corresponding path in ./DEVUAN. If it exits, 
DEBIAN packages are ignored.


There are some stuffs to add: debian must be changed by devuan in the

Hi Edward,

Don't change the name of the main funtion. In order to distinguish 
between ifup and ifdown, you can use one of the arguments, for example 
argv[1] (the first one *int argc* is the number of arguments in the 
command line (+1) included itself) .


Aitor.

El 08/09/15 a las 21:40, Edward Bartolo escribió:

Hi all,

I think, a simple way to avoid the backend having to call external
programs like ifup and ifdown, is to use code belonging to these
programs as it they were functions. This means, their code would be
used like this:

Suppose int main(int argc, char * argv[]) is the main function for
ifup. The main function's name would be changed like this, and the
other code belonging to ifup would be used.

int ifup_main(int argc, char * argv[]);

If I am correct, this should allow the backend to avoid having to use
execl to call ifup or ifdown or whatever other external program.

Hi Edward,

Here is the code of my libpqxx++ project:

http://gnuinos.org/libpqxx++/

(Now i can't access to any git repository in my gitlab account; 
apparently it's in maintenance).
It is a small project, and you can analyze the debian branch 
(debian/rules, etc...). The separation:

libpqxx
libpqxx-dev

is not done yet.

On the other hand, if you are interested in git, i recommend you Pro Git 
Book:

Cheers,

Aitor.

Re: [DNG] Mirroring Devuan

2015-08-29 Thread aitor_czr

Hi Hendrik,

I just started working on that. But just started.

The following script generates the pool and dists folders:

find ./DEBIAN -name *.dsc -exec reprepro --ask-passphrase -b . -V -C
main includedsc jessie {} \;
find ./DEBIAN -name *.deb -exec reprepro --ask-passphrase -b . -V -C
main includedeb jessie {} \;
find ./DEBIAN -name *.udeb -exec reprepro --ask-passphrase -b . -V -C
main includeudeb jessie {} \;

from the content of ./DEBIAN folder, searching all the 'deb', 'udeb' and
'dsc' located in it.

One of the issues arising is how to automatize the signing proccess, if
it is possible.

[DNG] replacing kernel 3.16.0-4

Replacing the kernel is very easy. The problem is in debian-installer.

But it is possible.

I am told that because selection of optimal resolution is today done by
the kernel, my 3.16.0-4 kernel therefore has a bug. I find significant
that kernel.org skips this kernel for possible downloading. Is anyone
else experiencing this problem?

I'm loading fluxbox on devuan-jessie without a desktop environment. When
I edit the linux line in the GRUB menu by appending video=VGA-1:d, the
display comes up with the proper DVI 1920x1080 resolution. Does this not
show that the kernel is sick?

So I'd like to use a different kernel, but there are no alternatives in
the devuan repository. How then should I install an alternative kernel?

Some time ago I tried to install devuan testing and it failed right away
for reasons I forget. Is the testing installation option actually
working?

Re: [DNG] remove systemd for the love of Yog-Sothoth already

2015-08-25 Thread aitor_czr


Hi again,

I recomend you to use pristine-tar in combination with git-buildpackage.

*** EXAMPLE 1: HOW TO GET THE SOURCES USING PRISTINE-TAR 

1) Download any git repository (for example, systemd):

   $ git clone https://gitlab.com/aitor_cz/bulmages.git

2) Enter into the project:

   $ cd bulmages

3) Extract the pristine-tar branch:

   $ git checkout pristine-tar

4) There are two delta binaries in this branch (one belonging to the 
master branch, and the other belonging to the release branch):


   $ ls -s
  total 405956
 405660 
bulmages-master_0.16.0.20150107.1241-73c2dd9d.orig.tar.bz2.delta

 288 bulmages-release_0.15.0-5b3c913b.orig.tar.bz2.delta
 4 bulmages-master_0.16.0.20150107.1241-73c2dd9d.orig.tar.bz2.id
 4 bulmages-release_0.15.0-5b3c913b.orig.tar.bz2.id

5) If you want to obtain the tarball (sources) of one of them (for 
example, the master branch) type the following:


   $ pristine-tar checkout 
../bulmages-master_0.16.0.20150107.1241-73c2dd9d.orig.tar.bz2
   pristine-tar: successfully generated 
../bulmages-master_0.16.0.20150107.1241-73c2dd9d.orig.tar.bz2


6) Now, go to the parent directory, and check the hash:

   $ md5sum bulmages-master_0.16.0.20150107.1241-73c2dd9d.orig.tar.bz2
   9359934456b86da8489d24a947828239 
bulmages-master_0.16.0.20150107.1241-73c2dd9d.orig.tar.bz2


   Your proccess will be physically equivalent !!
   This allows to check the purity of the sources, because the 
mantainer of a debian package must not do changes in it (the upstream 
branch is for developers).


 EXAMPLE 2: HOW TO BUILD WITH PRISTINE-TAR 
*


1) Download a concret branch:

   $ git clone --branch release15 --single-branch 
https://gitlab.com/aitor_cz/bulmages.git


2) Now we will use git-import-orig, so remove the metadatas in bulmages 
(the .git folder)


   $ rm -rf bulmages/.git
   $ mkdir release15
   $ cd release15
   $ git-import-orig --pristine-tar ../bulmages
 What will be the source package name? [] bulmages-release
 What is the upstream version? [] 0.15.0-5b3c913b
 gbp:info: Importing 
'../bulmages-release_0.15.0-5b3c913b.orig.tar.bz2' to branch 'master'...

 gbp:info: Source package is bulmages-release
 gbp:info: Upstream version is 0.15.0-5b3c913b
 pristine-tar: committed 
bulmages-release_0.15.0-5b3c913b.orig.tar.bz2.delta to branch pristine-tar
 gbp:info: Successfully imported version 0.15.0-5b3c913b of 
../bulmages-release_0.15.0-5b3c913b.orig.tar.bz2


3) Extract the pristine-tar branch:

   $ git checkout pristine-tar
 Switched to branch 'pristine-tar'

   $ ls -l
 bulmages-release_0.15.0-5b3c913b.orig.tar.bz2.delta
 bulmages-release_0.15.0-5b3c913b.orig.tar.bz2.id

  The tarball bulmages-release_0.15.0-5b3c913b.orig.tar.bz2 is again in 
the parent directory.


4) If yout want to do some changes, commit them an build with 
git-buildpackage:


   $ git-buildpackage --git-export-dir=../build-area \
  --git-pristine-tar \
  --git-tag \
  --git-ignore-branch


** EXAMPLE 3: HOW TO GENERATE THE PRISTINE-TAR BRANCH 
**


As Joey Hess explains in his article:

http://joeyh.name/blog/entry/generating_pristine_tarballs_from_git_repositories/

the above examples are from the perspective of a maintainer of a Debian 
package. But this can also be used by the authors who generate the 
pristine tarballs in the first place. Check them into git using 
pristine-tar. Then you can regenerate any tarball you've ever released 
using just your project's git repository.


$ pristine-tar commit ../bulmages-release_0.15.0-5b3c913b.orig.tar.bz2 
tags/0.15.0-5b3c913b


Have a nice day :)

Aitor.

P.D.- There is another alternative for the second example:

  $ gbp buildpackage --git-upstream-tag=0.15.0-5b3c913b \
 --git-debian-branch=release15 \
 --git-no-pristine-tar \
 --git-pristine-tar-commit

pristine-tar is needed to build the source package with

However I still have not found out how to build the source package from

 I've intermittently had this problem on multiple versions of

 the way life is.
 
 If you're really concerned about it, you could put in a
 (complicated) hotkey combo to run a shellscript that runs poweroff,
 and make sure that poweroff is set in sudoers to run as root and
 require no password (assuming this is a personal computer, and not
 a multiuser).
 
 By the way, if you happen to be booting to the command prompt and
 then running startx, Xfce is functioning as designed when it grays
 out its shutdown and reboot buttons.

Could we create a simple application that displays a logout modal
window similar to the one displayed by xfce4, remove the default
logout menu item from xfce4 and create our own one. With GTK2 it
shouldn't be that difficult to create it? We would only need to setup
sudo to run the littel GTK2 app.

What do you think?

Personally, I think it's too small a problem to address at all. But if
we do address the problem, I guess as a distro we should fix the root
cause (whatever it is), not patch around it.

There's a forum post about it, but the links lead to empty pages on the git 
wiki.

Mirroring debian was/is easy, in the old time you used the perl script
mirror, and later on, rsync via the shell script anonftpsync.

Mirroing devuan seems to be more complex, if you look below
Continuous Integration for Devuan at:

  https://devuan.org/

there is a program amprolla that handles the mix offtp.*.debian.org  
and the devuan packages. You can find amprolla here:


  https://git.devuan.org/devuan-infrastructure/amprolla

from the README.md:

  amprolla is a rude script that generates rewrite rules for nginx that then 
try to merge
  the Devuan repository files ( like InRelease, Packages, Sources and so on ) 
with
  other external repositories ( namely, the Debian one ) in order to provide a 
full
  repository where Devuan packages have precedence over other repos.

  This allows Devuan to have a fully meta distro where missing Devuan packages
  come from Debian and/or other repositories
  (like, for example, the deb-multimedia.org from Marillat) without the need
  to create a fully merged repository.

  It works by downloading and merging files to create the dists/ directory
  structure for Devuan and then creating a pool of HTTP 302 redirects to
  the external repositories hosts for packages download.

So setting up a devuan mirror involves amprolla (python), ngix, and I
assume apache. You can not just copy the files and point boa the the
directory.

I suggest you clone the amprolla repo and study the files there, and
look at packages.devuan.org with a ftp client to see the file structure:

Mirroring packages.devuan.org through ftp seems easy enough, but one
would probably need help setting up amprolla.

///

On a related note, how do I get a local mirror of devuan (a local
mirror is good to have when you are usually in bad connected places
or you are doing lots of installations/testing) ?

Mirroringftp://packages.devuan.org/devuan/  and having a sources.conf
like:

debfile:/Net/debian  jessie main non-free contrib
debfile:/Net/ftp/packages.devuan.org/devuan/  stable main

doesn't seem to work. What am I missing ?

Re: [DNG] Dng Digest, Vol 11, Issue 62

Please, try the same process using:

http://mirrors.gnuinos.org
http://mirrors.gnuinos.org/?dir=DEVUAN-BASED%20IMAGES

It is based on devuan, but the installers are different. Devuan installs
all the *.deb packages in the target; while gnuinos mounts the
filesystem.squashfs on it. Before compiling the content of the chroot
jail with the final porpuse of getting the squashfs file, i always
remove /etc/fstab from the jail. If i don't remove it, the personal home
folder of the user doesn't be created (i don't know the reason why). I
always do (/,/home/,sawp) manual partition with no issues. It would be
interesting to compare both results.

Thanks,

Aitor.

I've booted the Alpha2 iso but it doesn't seem to be able to find any partitions. From the partition menu (LVM
Guided or Manual) I select Manual but then get a dialog stating No root file system
defined. The installer seems to be jumping ahead from partitioning to installing without allowing me to setup partitions.

I have a 4G raw partition as /dev/sdb1 (formatted with ext4 and set 'active') which I
intend to use for / and then use LVM for /usr, /var, /home and /tmp. I have
Ubuntu installed on some of the LVM partitions and thought if Devuan is not working for
me, I can still boot back into the Ubuntu install so I don't want to re-partition the
entire disk as it would hose my current desktop setup.

Any way to manually kick off the install from the CLI ?

[DNG] Bug in debian-installer


Debian-installer creates in /etc/fstab lines like:

/dev/sr0/media/cdrom0   udf,iso9660 user,noauto 0   0
/dev/sdb1   /media/usb0 autorw,user,noauto  0   0

depending on the used method (cd-rom or usb-stick). Those files are 
superfluous. The following postinstallation script removes them:


ARCHIVO=/etc/fstab
if grep ^/dev/sd ${ARCHIVO} | grep /media/ | grep auto
then
LINEA1=`grep ^/dev/sd ${ARCHIVO} | grep /media/ | grep auto`
LINEA2=## ${LINEA1}
rpl -q ${LINEA1} ${LINEA2} ${ARCHIVO}
fi
if grep ^/dev/sr ${ARCHIVO} | grep /media/cdrom
then
LINEA3=`grep ^/dev/ ${ARCHIVO} | grep /media/cdrom`
LINEA4=## ${LINEA3}
rpl -q ${LINEA3} ${LINEA4} ${ARCHIVO}
fi
