ArbitionHi. I've got a beaglebone black (Cortex-A8) and I'm looking to install networkmanager, but libxml2 doesn't seem to be in the repositories, even though the file is in the indicies.01:55
Arbitionusing 13.0401:56
infinityArbition: It sure is...02:04
Arbitionhm02:04
ArbitionWell I'm getting a 404 from apt02:05
infinityWith which mirror?02:05
infinityAnd which path?02:05
Arbitionmain02:05
infinity"main" isn't a mirror.02:05
infinityPaste the actual error message?02:05
Arbitionports.ubuntu.com02:05
infinityOdd are, though, that you just have stale indices, and an 'apt-get update' will get you downloading a newer version.02:06
Arbitionah ok I'll try that02:07
Arbitionyeah that did it02:08
ArbitionSorry, I thought it might be arm specific02:08
Arbitionas you may have guessed I am not a regular ubuntu user02:08
ArbitionI prefer Fedora, but because the BeagleBone Black is a bit niche, I have to go with whats popular, and the Angstrom distro they release is pretty terrible02:09
infinityAngstrom is pretty awful, yeah.02:09
infinityI'd give opinions about Fedora, but that may appear to have professional bias. :P02:10
infinityReally, though, mapping one's brain from RH/FC to Debian/Ubuntu (and vice versa) really just comes down to mapping a few yum/apt commands internally, and sorting out annoying things like how we name library and dev packages differently.02:11
infinity(That is, Debian and Ubuntu name them sanely and consistently... Not that I have a bias... *cough*)02:12
ArbitionI'm guessing there is also the difference with systemd and upstard, as well as firewalld which is still fairly new. Both are pretty important in this application, as I am making a soft router out of the BBB02:13
infinityAhh, yeah.  Well, depends on which Fedora or RHEL you're running, some used upstart. ;)02:13
infinityBut the newest FC is systemd, yes.  Not that that makes a difference to the average user.  Most people don't really (or shouldn't) care about their init system.02:14
infinityFor a firewall, that may not be true, I suppose.02:14
infinityThough most people doing anything more clever than poking a few holes open in a cute user-friendly firewall helper tend to just write their own iptables rules in shell scripts of doom and execute them.02:15
infinityMaybe because we were all infected by IOS back in the day.02:15
ArbitionIOS as in Cisco I take it?02:15
infinityYeah, the real IOS.02:15
ArbitionI can think of two others02:15
infinityWell, one of them has a small 'i'.02:16
infinityAnd I'm not aware of the third. ;)02:16
Arbitionyes, I guess it does02:16
ArbitionI think the Wii uses that as a naming convention of at least something02:16
infinityAnyhow, Apple paid Cisco good money to abuse both "IOS" and "iPhone", but I stubbornly refuse to admit they did so.02:17
infinityBecause ignorance is bliss.02:17
* keebler still has nightmares of working for a Broadband Provisioning company (Reallinx), configuring hundreds of Cisco 1721s.02:26
keeblerWell, maybe not 100's, more like 100ish... Only worked there for 8 months.02:27
keeblerIt did inspire me to make a Cisco to iPad Cross-over cable in 2010.02:27
keeblerBack when you had to jailbreak it.02:28
