| fsmithred | brocashelm, fullstop - bug is fixed in version 9.6.5 of refractainstaller-base and refractainstaller-gui | 00:28 |
|---|---|---|
| fsmithred | Thanks for alerting me. | 00:28 |
| miojo | good night! | 00:43 |
| miojo | did you guys, saw this -> https://www.reddit.com/r/linux/comments/130ubca/psa_if_you_use_devuan_check_your_root_password/ ? | 00:44 |
| fsmithred | yes miojo and I just fixed the installer. | 00:45 |
| miojo | people are complaining about a live-desktop images, who leaves the root user with a blank password | 00:45 |
| fsmithred | me | 00:46 |
| miojo | fsmithred, thank you | 00:46 |
| fsmithred | sorry about that. | 00:46 |
| miojo | no problem man. | 00:46 |
| fsmithred | I took an alleged fix from someone and I guess I didn't test it thoroughly. | 00:46 |
| miojo | just a heads up. You how some people on reddit are | 00:46 |
| fsmithred | no, I don't go there. | 00:47 |
| miojo | they are always looking for something, to bash devuan | 00:47 |
| fsmithred | oh, ok. I guess we're pretty used to that. | 00:47 |
| miojo | fsmithred, we have a link to the patch? | 00:47 |
| brocashelm | most of the comments there are just nonsensical rhetoric that could be made about their own distros. use what works for you | 00:48 |
| fsmithred | it won't be in the devuan repo for probably an hour or two. | 00:48 |
| fsmithred | when it's there, I can upload copies to my sourceforge site. | 00:48 |
| brocashelm | ok. i was just going to ask about the deb files in particular | 00:49 |
| miojo | alright. It would be nice a response there. | 00:49 |
| brocashelm | thanks for that | 00:49 |
| fsmithred | do you need to have an account to post on reddit? | 00:50 |
| brocashelm | maybe an announcement in dev1galaxy, just so they know the devs were made aware of the bug | 00:50 |
| brocashelm | yes | 00:50 |
| fsmithred | anyone want to post links there when I have them? | 00:50 |
| brocashelm | there is a devuan subreddit (unofficial, i think) | 00:50 |
| miojo | fsmithred, yes i have | 00:50 |
| fsmithred | I will have links for you in about 1 minute. -base package is in ceres already | 00:50 |
| miojo | fsmithred, i can post to it. | 00:50 |
| miojo | fsmithred, thanks | 00:51 |
| fsmithred | ok, maybe five minutes. I have to download and upload. | 00:51 |
| miojo | no problem :) | 00:51 |
| fsmithred | https://sourceforge.net/projects/refracta/files/tools/refractainstaller-base_9.6.5_all.deb | 01:02 |
| fsmithred | ^^^ there's one. I'm still waiting for the -gui package to get into the repo. | 01:02 |
| brocashelm | cool | 01:02 |
| brocashelm | i presume you will have to reupload the images with these fixes? | 01:03 |
| miojo | fsmithred, that's the link i should post? | 01:03 |
| fsmithred | yeah. I'll have another for the gui package. | 01:03 |
| fsmithred | It's possible to only install and use the -base package. You get the cli script. The gui script is optional package. | 01:04 |
| fsmithred | and it's going slower into repo while I get increasingly impatient. | 01:04 |
| miojo | ok | 01:04 |
| miojo | Done | 01:09 |
| fsmithred | https://sourceforge.net/projects/refracta/files/tools/refractainstaller-gui_9.6.5_all.deb | 01:09 |
| fsmithred | ^^^ this one is uploaded and should show up on the page in a few minutes | 01:10 |
| miojo | "Thanks for the report. | 01:12 |
| miojo | It has already been fixed: | 01:12 |
| miojo | Related package (link to the package) | 01:12 |
| miojo | Also, the iso images are being updated." | 01:12 |
| miojo | That's my answer there | 01:12 |
| fsmithred | thanks! | 01:12 |
| fsmithred | uh, I'm not certain when the isos will be rebuilt, but you don't need to mention that. | 01:13 |
| fsmithred | gui package is now there. | 01:14 |
| brocashelm | there's also a thread on 4chan's /g/, so i'll make a mention there | 01:15 |
| miojo | thank you guys! | 01:15 |

| fsmithred | I can't decide whether to post in the Announcements section or the Installation section of the forum. | 01:17 |
| fsmithred | and it's almost time for dinner. | 01:17 |
| brocashelm | announcements, since this is a very important security issue, imo | 01:17 |
| brocashelm | should be good now | 01:25 |
| fsmithred | Done! | 01:38 |
| fsmithred | https://dev1galaxy.org/viewtopic.php?pid=42038#p42038 | 01:38 |
| brocashelm | thank you! | 01:40 |
| fsmithred | now that it's done, I see a better way to do it. :( | 02:49 |
| brocashelm | Debian 12.0 "Bookworm" Planned For Release On 10 June https://www.phoronix.com/news/Debian-12.0-Release-Date | 11:07 |

| brocashelm | another place talking about the "issue" | 22:25 |
| fsmithred_ | I rebuilt the package today using a better fix. New isos coming soonish. (Internet is very slow here) | 22:53 |
| brocashelm | ok, cool, thanks for the good work | 22:54 |
| brocashelm | take your time | 22:54 |
| fsmithred_ | well, it got to where it says "Retrieving packages" and then nothing else happened. | 22:55 |
| joerg | what's the plan about retroactively "fixing" the blank password root accounts already existing out there? It's a tad tricky since you can't assume *all* are by mistake, some may have set up like this on purpose (though of course that's quite unlikely) | 23:30 |
