fsmithredGuest43, if you're the same as Guest84 I can tell you that I have chromium 131.0.6778.85-1~deb12u1 from daedalus-security.00:27
Guest43i am00:27
fsmithredoh, there's a newer version. I just did an update and I see 131.0.6778.108-1~deb12u100:28
fsmithredI'll upgrade and see if I get it00:28
Guest43fsmithred: yeah, i have that one too. if it upgrades let me know00:28
fsmithredhe following packages have been kept back:00:29
fsmithred  chromium chromium-common chromium-sandbox00:29
Guest43ok, so i've not broken something on my end00:29
fsmithrednope. You're fine.00:29
Guest43good to know, thanks fsmithred :-)00:29
fsmithredit'll probably get fixed in a couple days. I've seen a lot of updates on ff and chromium lately00:30
Guest43yeah, it gets a lot of security updates compared to the other browsers. i only install the latest kernel from the backports and i'm very careful, but i still doubted i messed up somehow00:31
Guest43i'll wait for it then! thanks again!00:32
gnarfaceif coyotes4ys comes back someone tell them to try #devuan-arm and stick around for longer02:24
systemdleteapt update tells me 3 packages are upgradable, but apt upgrade says they are "held back."03:29
systemdleteheld back upgradable.  Seriously.03:30
rustyaxeapt full-upgrade03:30
debdogchromium chromium-common chromium-sandbox03:30
debdogI guess?03:30
systemdletedebdog, yep those 303:30
debdogread the log hee03:30
debdog*her03:30
debdoge03:30
systemdletethe doge log?03:31
systemdlete:D03:31
systemdleteIt sounds like acceleration while riding on the brake at the same time.03:31
debdoghmm, I do not understand that joke03:31
rustyaxejust did apt full-upgrade and they went fine here03:31
rustyaxeohh not so much03:32
systemdletewell, the jumble of lines you wrote, combined with recent news events here in the us, made my brain jump immediately to "doge"03:32
systemdleteeither the package (1) can be upgraded, or (2) cannot be upgraded.03:33
systemdletewhat is "full upgrade?"03:33
rustyaxeIt wont fix it anyways in this case03:34
* systemdlete resigns himself to debdog's advice and goes back to read the log...03:34
systemdleteso this probably originates at debian's end?03:36
systemdleteor chromium (google or whom/whatever)03:36
Xenguysystemdlete, It may or may not apply to you, but whenever I see 'held back' I just 'apt-get install' those packages03:39
FatPhiltrying to diagnose an unknown problem with one of the lusers on one of my remote machines. I ssh in as a luser, su - to root, then su - to his account, but then I can't resume his screen session because "Cannot open your terminal '/dev/pts/2' - please check.". that's device is obviously owned by my luser account.14:55
FatPhilalas, the luser knows nothing about linux, and is giving me no indication of what's failing and how.14:57
FatPhilso I just want to go in as him and do what he normally does (i.e. run irssi)14:57
fsmithredsystemdlete, the chromium package that's held back is in proposed-updates and security. The libraries it needs are only in proposed-updates. You can either enable that repo or wait until the libs move into either security or main repo.15:45
fsmithredfwiw, proposed-updates is for things that should get a little more testing.15:45
LucentWfatphil: is it a OpenVZ/Virtuozzo container? because I'm pretty sure it's a permission issue as in the user while owning the pts it can't read/write to it15:54
joergman screen -> "BUGS: A weird imagination is most useful to gain full advantage of all the features." ;-)16:32
rwpFatPhil, Instead of using "su -" try using "sudo -i" and then "sudo -i -u luser" as sudo allocates a new pty for the new user and avoids the problem of the pty being owned by a different user.17:46
joergTIL22:05
FatPhiljoerg: weird works as an explanation23:25
FatPhilrwp: I will probably forget that next time its useful.23:26
FatPhilbut thanky-thanky23:26
joergFatPhil: I actually am quite ignorant re `screen` but I found some permission management commands in manpage, for multi-user access. Dunno if that's maybe useful23:28
joergmaybe take it to *-offtopic?23:29
FatPhilthe luser in question still hadn't changed his "change me" password from about 5 years ago23:29
FatPhilI went in, and I did the dumb shit, and he's happy now23:29
FatPhilI even offered him the chance of changeing his p/w from "changeme42066669", and he said "no I'm happy with that one"23:30
rrqFatPhil: you can "chmod 777" your login /dev/pts/? and then screen should be happy (I think)23:47
rrq(the issue is that screen owned by luser cannot IO with the root pts you attach with)23:48
