mazes_83hi, I just migrated from raspbian/bullseyes to devuan/chimaera, I do not figure out which package provide boot files, until now I kept those from: rasperrypi-bootloader. Maybe a missing thing in my source.list ?18:46
gnarfacemazes_83: i can sanity check your sources.list for you, but off the top of my head i don't know whether those files are in any package, i had to copy/type mine up by hand (but i also am not running so recent of a version on my rpi either)18:48
gnarfaceeither way, stick around; it's a slow channel but someone else might know18:49
mazes_83I have time, my boot files are backed up, and things works. I'm trying to figure out things by myself in parrallel too.18:50
mazes_83source.list -> https://bpa.st/QQFA18:51
mazes_83I'm used to use wgepaste as most gentoo IRC users18:51
gnarfacemazes_83: uh, sorry, apologizes, but i'm quite paranoid; can you please use paste.debian.net?18:54
gnarfaceor just /msg it to me, that would be fine too18:55
gnarfaceit's only 6 lines18:55
mazes_83I pastebinit there, as it may also be viewed by other later: https://paste.debian.net/hidden/dcfcaa3d/18:57
gnarfaceok, a couple things stand out to me here18:58
gnarfacefirst of all, you don't have " contrib non-free non-free-firmware" on the daedalus-security line, not sure that's the problem, but i'm pretty sure they're supposed to all match18:59
gnarfacesecondly, you still have a uncommented raspbian line there, which is definitely a mistake; don't mix distros/releases18:59
gnarfacethird, and maybe this isn't important, but you said chimaera up above (which is now oldstable) but this is daedalus (stable)19:00
gnarfaceat least that is the one that corresponds to bookworm, but package conflicts could still arise because of this...19:00
gnarfacefourth, uh... is that a tab that got converted to spaces during paste between here? "daedalus          main"19:01
gnarfaceprobably not an issue if it's spaces, but tabs i just haven't tested, can't be sure it won't do something weird - probably not the issue, but i never do that, just for the record19:02
gnarfacejust mentioning that to be absolutely sure we covered all bases19:04
gnarfacestick around, someone else might know if those files are even supposed to be packaged or not, i don't19:04
mazes_83about package conflicts: I think only packages from daedalus are installed now (apt-show-versions | sed '/daedalus/d') is empty19:09
gnarfacewell, don't say i didn't warn you19:09
gnarfacedistro mixing is the source of some of the worst sneaky hard to find installation corruptions19:10
mazes_83raspbian line was just commented out (remained from my migration)19:10
gnarfaceah, ok19:10
mazes_83I passed through it many times, quite a headache to solve, sometimes not even possible to fix for me (not a debian regular user)19:11
gnarfacesometimes it's actually not possible to fix19:15
gnarfaceoccasionally the wrong mix of dpkg/apt tools can cause a unrecoverable package dependency tree corruption19:15
gnarfacein some really bad cases (actually one particularly notable one from an earlier raspbian version) it can even cause direct filesystem corruption19:16
gnarfaceand of course there's often mystery segfaults and other random crashes...19:16
mazes_83it was just a mistake installing raspi-firmware (in configure steps)20:43
mazes_83thx all, especially the one trying to help20:43
