[00:15] !final [00:15] If you install a development version of Ubuntu Xenial and keep up with package updates, then you will be upgraded to the official release of 16.04 when it comes out. To make sure, type « sudo apt-get update && sudo apt-get dist-upgrade » in a terminal. [00:15] maybe better use the "sudo apt update && sudo apt full-upgrade" there instead of apt-get to not confuse dist-upgrade with a distribution upgrade to a new ubuntu release? [00:16] Meh. [00:16] do apt and apt-get use the same resolver? [00:16] not 100% relevant, but i'm curious [00:16] its the new apt-get [00:17] that doesn't answer my question :P [00:17] damn, you got me ;p [00:17] anyway. +1 on changing it from me [00:18] i dont know if it got a new resolver. iirc its using the same libs underneath but tries to group things from apt-get, apt-cache etc into one command. and it got a fancy progressbar :) [00:18] (aptitude uses APT too obviously, but i heard they have different resolvers? idk. apt confuses me) [00:19] s/apt/APT/ [00:19] !search apt-get [00:19] Found: brokenmsn, kde, apt, flashissues, mplayer-fonts, loffice, xbug*, aptoncd, partitionmanager, build-dep and 21 more, see http://ubottu.com/factoids.cgi?search=apt-get [00:20] wow, lot of crap in there [00:20] !forget brokenmsn [00:20] I'll forget that, dax [00:21] apt rulez over apt-get [00:21] full-upgrade > dist-upgrade [00:21] i thought apt-get had full-upgrade, but then i read the man page and realized i was thinking about aptitude :3 [00:22] i like it because you dont have to tell people for 5 minutes that dist-upgrade will not update to 16.04 [00:22] yeah [00:22] makes a lot more sense too. safe-upgrade vs. full-upgrade [00:22] it's always been a bad/confusing term [00:22] pretty clear that one does something less "safe", i.e. removing packages [00:22] oh, apt doesn't have safe-upgrade, it just does upgrade. oh well still [00:23] you can do upgrade && full-upgrade if you are super cautious [00:23] but I just always do full-upgrade with very good results so far [00:24] dax: `apt` is a binary, `apt-get` is also a binary from the same package. There's benefits to each. [00:24] Unit193: i'm aware [00:24] OK, juuuust making sure, didn't sound like you knew. :3 [00:24] how so? [00:25] meanwhile, apt is not APT, it just uses it. so that's not confusing at all \o/ [00:26] apt is now a cli frontend to apt :) [00:28] lol [00:28] I still use apt-get when apt doesn't have the function I need [00:28] i just use aptitude for everything :| [00:29] valorie: Yes apt is good only for basic stuff, and apt list | grep installed,loc [00:29] I quit using aptitude a looooong time ago [00:29] confusing [00:30] * dax shrugs [00:30] i think the wanted to make a everyday apt with basic common usage. [00:30] better than dselect was [01:24] ubuntuforums.org will be going down for a short time soon [03:56] hi blahdeblah. Is there anything we can help you with operator related? [03:56] Flannel: no, but thanks anyway; just waiting for the last server to come back :-) [03:58] blahdeblah: alright. [04:01] Flannel: We're almost there; just waiting for the hosts to run through checks [04:11] Flannel: should be good now [04:12] Please let us know in #canonical-sysadmin if there are any issues [04:12] blahdeblah: Will do, thanks for the notification. [04:12] or... too late. [04:55] Remove the ban on Phanes. Round 2. [04:58] @login [04:58] Error: You are not identified [04:58] oh for god's sake ubottu, we already went over this [05:01] dax: papers please? [05:10] anyways. reported master to staff as a cloaked sockpuppet of phanes, not that that usually helps much but *shrug* [05:11] dax: Try again. [05:11] oh, it was that one this time? usually she hates me because of my cloak [05:11] @login [05:11] The operation succeeded. [05:11] erm, nick [05:11] heh [05:11] alrighty then [05:11] ty [05:12] Sure. [10:22] im concerned about malware with ubuntu [10:22] our friend is back [10:35] Ben64 called the ops in #ubuntu-offtopic () [10:35] hey bazhang, apparently zmanz is the spammer thats been targeting #ubuntu lately, you might want to check out #ubuntu-offtopic [10:36] thanks Ben64 [13:15] i already reported master beeing another cloaked account of phanes to tomas in pm since i dont get voiced in #freenode. [19:33] Hey, I'm one of OPs of #ubuntu-ir, but as I didn't use IRC for a long time, my username was removed. Now I'm back again and one of FreeNode staffs told me to mention it here :) Anyone who can help me with this issue? [19:47] wxl, Ok, I will try to reach them :) [19:47] nixoeen: please do. We will be here to help after you get them to confirm [19:47] nixoeen: thank you for understanding. please let me know if i can be of any further help. don't forget the loco-council is available, if needed, as well.

[21:59] kk === bazhang_ is now known as bazhang [23:43] hggdh, wxl, I already informed the ubuntu-ir-council to confirm about my position (no idea how long it takes), but in case it helps to speed up the process, I just noticed that the Topic of #ubuntu-ir is set by me last year and wasn't change since then. It's something that you can check by just going to the channel. [23:45] s/last year/two years ago [23:56] nixoeen: this is good, and shows you had rights to edit the topic (at least). But we would still like to have a confirmation from the Iranian LoCo council. [23:56] Technically, shows someone that used to own his nick/account did.
