| tempforever | that's odd that openssh-server upgrade fails, it works on a new excalibur install | 00:38 |
|---|---|---|
| tempforever | i did upgrade one vm from daed to exca but it doesnt run ssh server | 00:39 |
| tempforever | i was annoyed at some xfce changes | 00:40 |
| tempforever | openssh-server: | 01:17 |
| tempforever | Installed: 1:10.0p1-5 | 01:17 |
| fsmithred | emanuel, which postinst script was it? | 01:19 |
| emanuel | fsmithred, temp_forever: I also get "dpkg: warning: files list file for package missing" for a huge number of packagen. Perhaps that is the reason. I'll try this: https://serverfault.com/questions/430682/dpkg-warning-files-list-file-for-package-x-missing#430712 As for the post installation script the error code was 10 for the operation --configure, the scripts are at /var/lib/dpkg/info/openssh-server.postinst and /var/lib/dpkg/info/grub-efi-amd64.pos | 11:19 |
| emanuel | tinst respectively. | 11:19 |
| emanuel | It was the same error message as here, but the solutions did not work: https://unix.stackexchange.com/questions/430356/subprocess-installed-post-installation-script-returned-error-exit-status-10 | 11:21 |
| fsmithred | emanuel, did you try the reinstall with the for loop? | 11:50 |
| fsmithred | or try 'apt -f install' to install missing packages. | 11:51 |
| fsmithred | I see there are a lot of changes in ssh in excalibur. Check the changelog for anything relevant. (e.g. DSA keys?) | 11:52 |
| fsmithred | what commands did you use to do the upgrade? | 12:04 |
| fsmithred | FWIW, I just did an upgrade of daedalus to excalibur in virtualbox set to uefi boot. No problems with grub or openssh-server. | 12:54 |
| fsmithred | say a little more about what you did. | 12:54 |
| emanuel | fsmithred, the reinstall with te for-loop worked. (tough I had to change it because of the »« instead of '') | 14:12 |
| fsmithred | oh good | 14:13 |
| fsmithred | do you have any idea how the problem happened? | 14:13 |
| emanuel | I essentially followed the upgrade guide from chimaera to daedalus: https://www.devuan.org/os/documentation/install-guides/daedalus/upgrade-to-daedalus | 14:14 |
| emanuel | apt and dpkg might have some differences between the older and the newer versions. | 14:16 |
| emanuel | I also needed more than one "apt upgrade" command, because it failed in the middle a few times. I am using openrc on that installation, by the way. | 14:18 |
| fsmithred | yeah, sometimes more than one upgrade is needed. I think it depends on what you have installed. I did my test on a minimal system with no X. | 14:19 |
| emanuel | So my guess is: First old apt did the upgrade and somewhere in the middle new apt took over. But perhaps those versions do some things differently. | 14:21 |
| emanuel | My installateion is with XFCE, Firefox ESR, LibreOffice, ffmpeg, mpv, yt-dlp (requireing python) and many more packages. | 14:23 |
| emanuel | A mysterious nameless window (completely black) still apears in XFCE after every login. | 14:24 |
| fsmithred | oh, I know what you're talking about. I have to remember what the fix is. | 14:33 |
| fsmithred | https://dev1galaxy.org/viewtopic.php?pid=52397#p52397 | 14:37 |
| fsmithred | emanuel, ^^^ | 14:37 |
| fsmithred | looks like it hasn't been fixed. Turn off autologin in /etc/slim.conf or else switch to lightdm or other display manager | 14:41 |
| emanuel | Thanks, but for now I'll just click close. | 14:55 |
| fsmithred | lol, yeah that works. | 14:58 |
