gnarfaceit doesn't seem like you should be installing passwd:i386 in the first place, isn't it a amd64 system? that's not one of the packages you would typically need both of04:37
AlexLikeRockits  multiarch04:38
AlexLikeRocka old time X32 , now  X64 bit04:38
gnarfaceeven for multiarch, you should only need both versions of certain packages, and passwd isn't one of those04:38
AlexLikeRockdo i need  passwd:i386 at 32bit vertion ?04:38
gnarfaceno, but if this started out as a i386 system you tried to make multiarch maybe this has been caused by an incomplete migration04:39
AlexLikeRockyes04:39
gnarfaceas far as i know, you should be using amd64 versions of everything except certain graphics libraries04:40
gnarfacelike mesa and your video driver04:40
gnarfaceand sdl maybe, stuff that Wine and Steam use04:40
gnarfacedefinitely not passwed04:40
gnarface*passwd04:40
AlexLikeRockok04:45
AlexLikeRock so04:45
AlexLikeRockhow can force to reconfigure ?04:45
rrqto recover here you may need to change whichever group has id 42 to have another id, and then also move any file of that group id04:45
rrqor, possibly, your group "shadow" has another id than 42... so you need to fix things so shadow has id 42, and that chgrp all related the files04:48
AlexLikeRockhow to list groups  ?04:54
rrqgetent grouup shadow 4204:54
rrqgetent group shadow 4204:54
AlexLikeRock getent group shadow 42 -bash: getent: order not found04:56
rrqok... grep -w 'shadow\|42' /etc/group04:56
AlexLikeRock grep -w 'shadow\|42' /etc/group04:57
AlexLikeRockshadow:x:42:04:57
rrq?hmm?05:01
AlexLikeRockok, what number wirte to shadow ?05:01
rrqthat line is how it shouuld be, and if that's the case then passwd.postinst is not supposed to object05:03
gnarfaceno no05:03
gnarfacei don't think that's the right choice05:03
gnarfacethe right choice is don't have two passwd packages05:04
gnarfacejust remove passwd:i386 and only use passwd:amd6405:04
gnarfacethe fact it's already created the shadow group at 42 is completely normal and should be left alone05:04

gnarfacehmm, i'm not sure what that means07:30
gnarfacedoes that happen if you run it again?07:30
AlexLikeRock_i don run again , and not say that again07:31
AlexLikeRock_ finish , normal07:31
AlexLikeRock_not error07:31
AlexLikeRock_ thanks07:31
gnarfacei can only guess it had something to do with the group collision and the package name change from earlier, then disappeared because you fixed the errors07:32
AlexLikeRock_oh07:39
AlexLikeRock_ thanks07:39
AlexLikeRock_i will , reboot , and test the OLD DEVUAN (fix it )07:39
AlexLikeRock_wishme luck  :-D07:39
gnarfaceheh, good luck!07:39
AlexLikeRock_hehheh07:40
al1r4dgood luck!12:10
freemin "W: APT had planned fo..." the prefix W: is to indicate a warning, not an error, I think12:19
freemI may be wrong though, long time I have not seen this myself12:19
freemcuold be the pre/post-rm/inst scripts, but the numbers would not match, would be at most 4*4 actions... maybe something with hooks? I think dpkg have such feature but no idea how it works12:21
fsmithredI just found something weird. I decided to upgrade my beowulf install to chimaera. It was fully updated/upgraded, I edited sources.list, updated, then when I was starting the upgrade, it said only 279 packages were slated for upgrade. It should be over 1000.15:32
fsmithredSo I ran an aptitude command to tell me how many packages were from oldstable (chimaera) and there are 144. I do not recall installing stuff from chimaera on this box. I mostly use it as a file server and didn't want to mess with it since it's working fine as beowulf.15:34
fsmithredanyway, I'm going ahead with the full upgrade.15:34
fsmithredmaybe I should have posted this in -dev since I don't have a question, but I guess that situation could change. I'll report back.15:35
djphfsmithred: i've noticed that too, do you maybe have -backports enabled?15:43
fsmithrednope15:48
fsmithredwell, not now. I might have in the past, but there were things on the list I would not have backported.15:48
fsmithredand still running 4.19 kernel15:48
fsmithredanother 43 on dist-upgrade15:50
gnarfaceinstall anything from 3rd party repos? sometimes 3rd party repos include dependencies15:56
fsmithredjust virtualbox16:11
fsmithredthis was probably the easiest dist upgrade Ive ever done, up to the point where I discovered that openssh-server got removed.16:11
fsmithredand attempting to install it wants to remove most of my desktop.16:12
fsmithredrebooting to new kernel and try some things.16:12
fsmithredcryptsetup still works. (whew!)16:13
fsmithredconsole login works.16:13
gnarfacewas it perchance the version of virtualbox corresponding to bullseye/chimaera? if so, that could be the smoking gun16:18
fsmithrednot sure16:19
fsmithredlemme see16:19
fsmithred6.1  I think they're on 7.1 now16:19
fsmithredautoremove is still running. I'll have to reinstall a few things. Not too bad - I already have build scripts with package lists I can copy/paste.16:20
fsmithredfirefox is pinned to an old version. correting that.16:24
fsmithredoh boy, 1373 packages can now be upgraded16:24
fsmithredI think that was the last firefox I could stand to look at. Sorry to see it go.16:26
fsmithrednote to self: review pins before dist-upgrades16:27
fsmithredok, I think I'm finally done upgrading my beowulf to chimaera. I had to repeat it a bunch of times and delete a couple of things to get it quit holding back packages. The only ones left are a few python2 packages for gtk-recordmydesktop.18:29
Guest70Hi! I seem to be unable to connect to the Devuan repos via tor+http23:15
Guest70this used to work and seems like a new problem23:15
n4dirwhat is the error message?23:17
Guest71I'm running it again. "apt update" is working. "apt install logcheck" is not. Not sure why and will post the message at the end of all the Ign x: lines23:19
Guest71on the install I get messages like "Ign:1 tor+http://devuanauxrkggcowgm2vcs6go3c5pgxdidd5wqjpg7zpfaxkmgspr6id.onion/merged daedalus/main amd64 libipc-signal-perl all 1.00-10"23:19
n4dirGuest71: the last few days i also couldn't apt-get update often, i waited a bit, then it worked. No tor involved23:20
n4dirdoesn't explain why installing logcheck fails. Sure23:20
Guest71ok, I get these at the end: "Err:1 tor+http://devuanauxrkggcowgm2vcs6go3c5pgxdidd5wqjpg7zpfaxkmgspr6id.onion/merged daedalus/main amd64 libipc-signal-perl all 1.00-1023:24

Guest71I feel like I'm doing something wrong but I am not sure what it is23:25
rwpYou may have to pick a specific mirror that is working for you and use it explicitly.23:29
rwpNormally there is a round-robin DNS involved and different servers are selected from the DNS list each time.23:30
rwpAs a workaround, try downloading the .deb and then if you actually get it down then you can install it from the .deb file.23:30
fsmithred1.00-10 5023:31
fsmithred         50 http://deb.devuan.org/merged excalibur/main amd64 Packages23:31
fsmithredlibipc-signal-perl (version in excalibur/ceres)23:31
fsmithredyour sources say daedalus23:32
fsmithredoh, nm. same version is in daedalus. Sorry, I'm in chimaera right now.23:33
rrqGuest71: check your tor tunnel23:43
rrqfi: a tor tunneling goes through the hops of the tor network to eventually access pkgmaster.devuan.org via its tor outlet, so it does not use the round-robin.23:58
