msiismI'm getting the following errors when running `apt-get update`: https://paste.debian.net/plainh/6ee9a47620:19
msiismWhat can I do to solve the problem?20:19
msiismPrior to these error messages I received some errors on signature verification.20:20
msiismAnd also warnings on suite name and codename changes for some repositories.20:23
gnarfacemsiism: does the problem persist if you retry? might just be an issue with one of the repos. that's a DNS round-robin, so you can try again and probably get a response from a different repo, or manually configure one of the repos from the mirror list specifically20:43
msiismYeah, manually reconfiguring the repositoriy fixed it.20:48
yetiths problem persists for weeks or longer now.  maybe some broken mirrors should get dropprd from the DBS rr20:49
yetiDNS20:49
onefangI've never seen that "Conflicting distribution" error before, so apt-panopticon isn't checking for it.20:55
onefangI do keep an eye on apt-panopticon and I do drop mirrors from the DNS-RR when needed.  Hard to do if I never see the error, and even harder if there's no indication of WHICH mirror..  More details needed.20:56
gnarfacemsiism: got the IP address of the one that was giving you that error?20:58
onefangNo hurry, it's 6 AM, and I still haven't had brekky.20:58
msiismI didn't record the IP address, sorry.21:14
yetiI've still too many systems with screen running with too few lines scrollback.  I should increase that...21:16
yeticould help sometimes21:16
onefangapt-panopticon really should check this InRelease file, it isn't checking it yet.21:19
onefangThere was already a TODO, I just added to it now.21:22
onefangAlso bumped it's priority.21:23
rwpThat's a pretty bizarre error msiism as it appears someone swapped the two, main and security, on one of the mirrors.  Never seen that happen before.  It's a one-off error.22:07
rwponefang, I ran my test (that you remember me assembling on the fly a couple of weeks ago) and all of the IPv4 mirrors in the DNS RR look okay to me.22:12
rwpI should move things over to an IPv6 capable system so I can test those too.22:12
onefangI was offline for parts yesterday while I got IPv6 up and running at home.  I reported it as "just works" yesterday, but then I spotted some local DNS issues, and wasted too much time deep diving into that.  But now I can test IPv6 apt stuff from home.23:01
rwpExcellent!  I can test those from one of the cloud hosted systems.  Linode has always had excellent IPv6 support forever.  As compared to others that only acquired it more recently.23:03
onefangSo if nothing else horrible happens to soak up my time, I'll be getting some apt-panopticon work done next week I think.  More in depth mirror testing (catch those things I'm not checking for yet), and maybe even slightly better reporting.  One of these days I'll even deep dive into apt source code, see if it has any tricks I missed.23:06
onefangThe other reason I was on and off yesterday was switching to pidgin instead of Psi+ and biboumi.  Fair bit of restarting things until I was mostly happy with it.23:09
onefangNow if I can just get a theme that is actually black, not just almost black on most of the screen...23:09
onefangMessing with pidgin theming is for another day though.23:11
rwpI used to love the old Psi for messaging.  It's been a few years though.23:25
rwpDidn't it suffer in the GTK 2 to 3 which never happened for it?  I think that was why I had to let it go as it wasn't being upgraded to 3.  Or something like that.23:26
onefangDunno about Psi, I used Psi+.23:26
