| Firefishe | I'm on Xenial. I'm getting some repository error messages, and would like to ask for some help deciphering them, please. Here's my paste output from Terminal: https://paste.ubuntu.com/25736154/ | 04:05 |
| Firefishe | Also, what is the command line syntax for pulling in all extant repository keys? | 04:05 |
| drostie | Firefishe: do you have any interesting things you want to say about your setup? | 04:19 |
| drostie | also what do you mean 'all extant repository keys' -- all packages that you custom-installed? | 04:19 |
| Firefishe | drostie: I though there was a command for pulling in all keys for listed and active repos. | 04:21 |
| Firefishe | drostie: I set this thing up about a month ago, and I've left it alone for a bit. I don't remember why I initially set up the repos the way I did. | 04:21 |
| drostie | Oh, you mean into your keyring? like PPAs? | 04:22 |
| drostie | yeah, looking over it you have a bunch of PPAs. hm. | 04:23 |
| Firefishe | drostie: I do recall that I'm using another server, rather than Main, as Main was getting to be a bit slowish. | 04:24 |
| Firefishe | drostie: Incidentally, what's the latest LTS? Is Xenial deprecated now? | 04:25 |
| drostie | xenial should still be in its support window I think but I could double-check. | 04:26 |
| drostie | Latest LTS would be 17.04 which would be Zesty. | 04:26 |
| Firefishe | 17.04 is LTS? | 04:27 |
| drostie | Oh no, 17.04 was not LTS, you're right. | 04:27 |
| Firefishe | ya...I"ll stick with Stable. | 04:28 |
| drostie | yeah, that's no problem. | 04:29 |
| Firefishe | drostie: I appreciate the help. I'll have to research the ppa's to see what I was doing. That said, is there a way to get a stock sources.list ? If I, say, rename the old one, move it to another directory to save it, and reboot, will the system default? | 04:30 |
| Firefishe | Or, I guess rebooting really isn't an issue. If I update with apt-get, will it throw errors? | 04:31 |
| drostie | @Firefishe I would definitely rename it but it's only, like, one line that you need | 04:32 |
| Firefishe | drostie: That one line: I'm assuming it's a repo index line? | 04:33 |
| Firefishe | drostie: I'm just trying to eliminate my error messages. | 04:33 |
| Firefishe | drostie: Well, time to put on my mad scientist foil hat, change the name, and xperixenialment. muaha. | 04:34 |
| Firefishe | ;-) | 04:35 |
| drostie | yeah like in my case it would be `deb http://us.archive.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/ xenial main universe multiverse restricted` | 04:36 |
| Firefishe | drostie: I guess I could also just revert through synaptic. | 04:38 |
| drostie | Firefishe: but there's some stuff about it in /etc/apt/apt.conf | 04:39 |
| Firefishe | I don't like the newer package managers. I much prefer synaptic. | 04:39 |
| drostie | sorry, about *issues* in apt.conf | 04:39 |
| drostie | like if you need a proxy and one isn't configured in there, or if you need*ed* a proxy and now you don't. | 04:39 |
| Firefishe | I don't see apt.conf anywhere. There's an /apt.conf.d/ directory. | 04:40 |
| Firefishe | That is: /etc/apt.conf.d rather | 04:40 |
| Firefishe | Gads...I"m bad tonight | 04:40 |
| Firefishe | Thats: /etc/apt/apt.conf.d/ | 04:41 |
| Firefishe | <--Can be taught with mind control, lasers, and nano brain micro-droids. ;-) | 04:41 |
| drostie | it also suggests that you might test whether your network is just dropping packets to the right place with wget -qO- http://archive.canonical.com/ubuntu/dists/xenial/InRelease | head | 04:42 |
| Firefishe | drostie: The output of that command gave me standard output with what looks like a bunch of binary characters. | 04:44 |
| Firefishe | What is head? | 04:44 |
| drostie | just truncates to only the first several lines. | 04:44 |
| Firefishe | I don't think I have packet issues, actually. I think it's just the repos. | 04:45 |
| Firefishe | Probably those ppas. | 04:45 |
| drostie | Firefishe: here's what that gives for me: https://paste.ubuntu.com/25736313/ | 04:45 |
| drostie | No "binary characters" | 04:46 |
| drostie | with that said it's worth moving these files and seeing if apt has sane defaults when the files it's looking for aren't there, but it *is* messing with `apt` so definitely don't do anything you can't undo with a livecd. | 04:47 |
| drostie | also worth checking if any other mirrors do the right thing if archive.canonical.com doesn't. | 04:49 |
| Firefishe | Let me paste my output. It's really weird. | 04:50 |
| Firefishe | drostie: https://paste.ubuntu.com/25736331/ | 04:52 |
| Firefishe | What terminal/desktop are you usng? | 04:52 |
| Firefishe | using | 04:52 |
| Firefishe | I'm using unity/gnome-terminal | 04:52 |
| drostie | I mean it's a custom shell config but I use zsh underneath. | 04:53 |
| Firefishe | Yeah, I"m using bash. | 04:53 |
| drostie | Firefishe: maybe try wget -qO- http://archive.canonical.com/ubuntu/dists/xenial/InRelease >/tmp/wat && file /tmp/wat ? | 05:00 |
| drostie | if that doesn't work maybe gunzip </tmp/wat reveals some weird gzipping? | 05:00 |
| Firefishe | with the `?' -- ?? | 05:01 |
| Firefishe | question mark, or not | 05:01 |
| drostie | No question mark :D | 05:01 |
| Firefishe | k :-D | 05:01 |
| Firefishe | drostie: That saved it, but the file can't be opened. | 05:03 |
| Firefishe | I'm wondering if I'm missing some encryption tools? | 05:04 |
| drostie | Firefishe: hmmm. does it happen for all web sites or just that domain? | 05:09 |
| drostie | like can you wget normal http:// stuff? | 05:09 |
| Firefishe | could you repaste that please? | 05:10 |
| drostie | repaste what? | 05:10 |
| Firefishe | the output paste link. | 05:10 |
| drostie | this? https://paste.ubuntu.com/25736313/ | 05:11 |
| Firefishe | yes, thank you | 05:15 |
| drostie | also worth trying with https, maybe it's one of those "check OK to access this network" pages that's on a malfunctioning http server that doesn't do https correctly. | 05:18 |
| Firefishe | drostie: Sorry, connection issues. | 05:22 |
| drostie | yeah I can imagine, last thing I said to you was: | 05:23 |
| drostie | also worth trying with https, maybe it's one of those "check OK to access this network" pages that's on a malfunctioning http server that doesn't do https correctly. | 05:23 |
| Firefishe | wow | 05:30 |
| Firefishe | drostie: I just switched the url's to "https" and I get what seems to be a continuous update loop using apt-get. | 05:31 |
| Firefishe | drostie: This is getting stwange. | 05:31 |
| Firefishe | ;-) | 05:31 |
| drostie | yeah. what changed? | 05:35 |
| drostie | like did you move to a new home? It can't be that you booted up a long-dead computer if you're running xenial. | 05:36 |
| Firefishe | It's nine years old, actually. Still working fine. | 05:36 |
| Firefishe | brb...rest room | 05:36 |
| Firefishe | back | 05:47 |
| Firefishe | drostie: My unit is a 2008 Asus G50V(t) RoG Gaming Laptop | 05:47 |
| Firefishe | drostie: It's a beast! :-D | 05:48 |
| Firefishe | have to reboot | 05:55 |

| dougl | morning folks | 16:50 |
| dougl | I am thinking about backing up my OS drives as my installs of Mac OS's are broken and not going to recover - I have learned enough about Macs to know I don't like to be force fed... | 17:24 |
| dougl | When my desktop in 17.04 goes into suspend mode will my job of copying lots of files to ext4 partitions get inter8pted?> | 17:25 |
| dougl | or will it not go into suspend mode? | 17:29 |
| BluesKaj | 'Morning dougl, I think you would get a notifier popup | 17:39 |
| BluesKaj | how are you backing up your data ? with rsync? | 17:40 |
| === EvilClown[away] is now known as EvilClown | ||
| dougl | BluesKaj, thanks for the info... just a straight copy of data from hfs+ by root cuz that is all I know | 18:52 |
| dougl | BluesKaj, I would probably temporarily turn off power management | 18:53 |

| IrcsomeBot | <Silenoz> Hi guys, … a short question, I yesterday had the possibility by a certain command, to let me the KDE plasma version to let. I can not remember the command now, and I seek in vain for it, so I now turn to you: "lsb_release" and "uname" are not. The output was done with "plasma 5.10.5" or something like that. Can someone of you help me? | 23:05 |

| IrcsomeBot | <Silenoz> Thanks for the quick help :) | 23:08 |
