| xisop | okay, so chimaera and ceres. i'll test all architectures. i'm pretty sure qemu would suffice | 00:06 |
|---|---|---|
| xisop | do we have the original bug report? | 00:06 |
| xisop | fsmithred: sorry, just to clarify, you said chimaera and daedalus are affected? | 00:14 |
| xisop | let me see if i can get all this info through the mailing list emails | 00:15 |
| fsmithred | there was no bug report, we were alerted in irc | 00:16 |
| fsmithred | and someone also posted on our meeting pad | 00:16 |
| fsmithred | not ceres. There are no ceres isos. | 00:16 |
| xisop | ok | 00:17 |
| fsmithred | chimaera live isos and daedalus-preview live isos | 00:17 |
| fsmithred | eight isos in all: desktop-live and minimal-live, i386 and amd64 | 00:18 |
| xisop | do we know the general time when that was reported? i think i have unlimited scrollback for #devuan and this channel | 00:18 |
| fsmithred | the problem occured if you chose "use sudo as default and disable root account" | 00:19 |
| fsmithred | I think Wed or Thurs. | 00:19 |
| fsmithred | no, that's not right. Let me check. | 00:20 |
| xisop | crap. i don't have unlimited scrollback. okay, can you just give me the steps i'd need to test? | 00:21 |
| fsmithred | boot live-iso in qemu with attached virtual hard drive. Run refractainstaller, either cli or graphical version. | 00:22 |
| fsmithred | When it asks about sudo and root, choose "Use sudo as default and disable root account." | 00:22 |
| fsmithred | reboot into the new system and run "su" (or "su -" if you prefer) | 00:23 |
| fsmithred | If it's fixed, you will be asked for a password but you won't be able to log in. | 00:23 |
| fsmithred | If it's not fixed, you'll just get a root prompt. | 00:23 |
| xisop | perfect! thank you fsmithred ! | 00:23 |
| fsmithred | If you have a system that was installed with one of the affected versions of refractinstaller, run 'sudo passwd -l root' to fix it. | 00:24 |
| fsmithred | versions 9.6.0 through 9.6.4 | 00:25 |
| fsmithred | current fixed version is 9.6.6 | 00:25 |
| fsmithred | xisop, https://lists.dyne.org/lurker/message/20230430.121624.3aa8ee62.en.html | 00:34 |
| fsmithred | ^^^ at the bottom | 00:35 |
| xisop | okay, i remember seeing this "wtf-devuan" repo for some reason. | 00:36 |
