dlPhreakHas anyone else experienced this bug with apt preventing updates to be installed?08:22
dlPhreakhttps://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/apt-listchanges/+bug/161419108:22
dlPhreakRebooting does not fix the issue for me.08:23
paddatrapperdlPhreak: I've had that issue on debian. Needed to edit a comfig file to fix it08:25
dlPhreakI'm on debian as well.08:25
dlPhreakpaddatrapper: what was the fix?08:26
paddatrapperAdd this to /etc/apt/apt.conf.d/20listchanges08:26
paddatrapperDPkg::Tools::Options::/usr/bin/apt-listchanges::InfoFD "20";08:26
paddatrapperdlPhreak: ^^08:28
dlPhreakpaddatrapper: eureka08:30
dlPhreakshould I now keep the current version of 20listchanges or install the maintainers version?08:30
paddatrapperThe maintainer's version probably has that fix in it. Maybe save it as .new and compare them08:31
paddatrapperdlPhreak: Are you running KDE or Gnome?08:32
dlPhreakxfce actually paddatrapper 08:32
paddatrapperdlPhreak: ah ok, then never mind. I was hoping if you could confirm a bug for me08:33
dlPhreakpaddatrapper: Ah well, thanks. Problem solved.08:36

smilenlsthzn: good night ;)12:56

nlsthznyup13:15
nlsthznthe glue that keeps this place standing :p13:15

smileThe Department of Home Affairs is notoriously inefficient, so make sure to apply for visas and visa extensions as early as possible. A way to 'extend' your visa without going through the disaster that is the Department of Home Affairs, is by leaving and re-entering South Africa. o.O14:03
smilenlsthzn: where is the glue? ;) 14:04
smileor maybe I should ask superfly o.O14:05
superflysmile: Kilos has gone to Australia to visit a lady friend of his14:06
smile:D14:06
smileoh yes, he told me about that friend :)14:06
smiledo you know he long he will be staying there, superfly ? :)14:09
smilewhat about his sheep? :p14:09
superflynope14:11
superflythey aren't his sheep14:11
smileI see :o14:11
smileHistorically, South African fuel stations were cash only, which was and still is indicated by many guidebooks. However, after a period in which fuel stations accepted only their own proprietary credit cards, in 2009, the government authorized them to begin accepting major credit cards like Visa and MasterCard. As of 2011, some smaller fuel stations accept cash only, but most fuel stations...14:12
smile...will accept major credit cards. Thus, you do not need to carry large amounts of cash to pay for fuel, unless you are absolutely certain you will need to purchase fuel in a rural area that does not yet support credit cards.14:12
smileno debit cards :(14:12
superflysmile: debit cards too14:14
smile:DD14:14
smileSEPA? :)14:14
superflysmile: I don't know what that stands for14:15
smileSingle Euro Payments Area :) it is used in whole Europe for bank transfers and payments14:16
superflysmile: This is South Africa, not Europe ;-)14:19
smileI know :) but MasterCard is not an African company, still it works in Africa ;) 14:19
smilesame logic :)14:20
smilebut SEPA is probably Europe-only, while SWIFT is worldwide14:20
smile"Society for Worldwide Interbank Financial Telecommunication"14:20
superflyYes14:20
smilenice :)14:20
superflyIf your debit card is from Mastercard, Maestro (which is Mastercard) or Visa, then it will work here14:21
smileI have Maestro, but have never used it :) here in Belgium we have a system which is called Bancontact, so I haven't had the need to use Maestro :)14:23
smileI guess I'll have to see :D14:23
aquaratYou could get a Revolut card...14:23
aquarathttps://revolut.com/14:24
aquaratalthough it might only be available to UK citizens.14:24
nlsthznpetrol cards were so dumb14:25
smileaquarat: sure looks nice :)14:25
aquaratNot too long ago I still had to present one @ Petrol card... in Sutherland.14:26
aquaratThey wouldn't take any other type of card haha.14:26
aquaratIt's not bad smile... it lets you keep three base currencies in the account and gives inter-bank rates for exchange between them. They don't charge fees on that either.14:26
smileEUR, USD and ZAR14:27
smileperfect ;)14:27
aquaratwell they don't natively do ZAR, but they support ZAR via ATM withdrawals, POS purchases and SWIFT transfers.14:28
aquaratThey only natively support EUR, USD and GBP.14:28
smile:)14:29
smile"Topping up via bank transfer within the Single Euro Payments Area is free."14:30
smileSEPA :D14:30
aquaratSEPA doesn't work in South Africa :)14:31
aquaratBut no one in South Africa will charge you a fee for paying with a Visa or Mastercard card.14:32
aquaratIt's illegal for vendors here to charge more for credit card transactions, except in very specific situations.14:32
smile:)14:34
smilegood14:34
smilewhat's the difference between unleaded petrol and lead replacement petrol? :)14:40
smile(I wonder why the word replacement is there..)14:40
aquaratunleaded petrol has low lead content, which is now mandatory. Lead replacement petrol contains additives which emulate the presence of lead.14:41
smileaquarat: thanks :)14:41
aquaratlol, no worries14:42
aquaratbbl (lol)14:45
