[00:08] <rakhanreturns> Hello all! I have a question - I am attempting to create a custom Live USB of Lubuntu 16.04.3 LTS with persistent storage for additional packages like clamav. Unfortunately, when I attempt to install the software, Software Center and Synaptic both report that they couldn't download the packages, and apt-get throws an error relating to cryptsetup. Does anyone know what to do about this?
[00:11] <wxl> couldn't download which packages?
[00:12] <wxl> you might want to use apt proper to give you a sense as to what's happening
[00:12] <rakhanreturns> Specifically the clamav package and its dependencies and clamdscan
[00:13] <wxl> probably some sort of temporary connectivity/networking issue or a mirror problem of smoe kind
[00:14] <wxl> !info clamav xenial
[00:14] <wxl> !info clamdscan xenial
[00:14] <wxl> seems those are both happily in the right place and in main, no less
[00:14] <jk^> https://goo.gl/images/sJ3f2J i installed lubuntu, but i checked just first checkbox. How to install the things listed in secondo checkbox later, when the operating system is completely installed?
[00:15] <rakhanreturns> Weird... I did apt-get update first. I guess it's a networking issue then.
[00:16] <wxl> jk^: install ubuntu-restricted-extras
[00:17] <jk^> how to do that using gui?
[00:18] <wxl> oh sorry
[00:18] <wxl> we actually have our own lubuntu-restricted-extras
[00:19] <jk^> ok but how to install that "LATER" if i have not installed them during installation?
[00:19] <wxl> you can use gnome-software to install it
[00:19] <wxl> you install the package.
[00:19] <jk^> i can't find where :|
[00:19] <wxl> !info lubuntu-restricted-extras
[00:20] <jk^> :( i dont' understand what i have to do, i use lubuntu since few days :(
[00:20] <jk^> possibly by gui not by command line
[00:21] <wxl> https://askubuntu.com/a/89100
[00:22] <wxl> ^ that's the first step to getting the repository added
[00:22] <jk^> to many technical text for me :( i'm a newbie
[00:22] <jk^> :(
[00:22] <wxl> then open gnome-software or synaptic (depending on your version, you'll have one or the other installed) and search for lubuntu-restricted-extras and install it
[00:23] <wxl> then here's what i'd advise: i'll give you the terminal commands, you copy and paste and it will be done.
[00:25] <jk^> however in Preferences->Software and updates->(Tab) Software for ubuntu... they are all checked: -MAIN -UNIVERSE -RESTRICTED -MULTIVERSE :\
[00:25] <jk^> wxl,
[00:25] <wxl> now open synaptic or gnome-software
[00:26] <jk^> i opened synaptic
[00:26] <jk^> "Packages manager"
[00:26] <wxl> now search for lubuntu-restricted-extras
[00:31] <jk^> bingo :)
[00:31] <jk^> i find them
[00:31] <jk^> thanks a lot
[00:33] <jk^> but it doesn't include all thatt i see in this link https://goo.gl/images/sJ3f2J  but just " - MP3 and other audio codec software to play various audio formats
[00:33] <jk^>    (mplayer plugins)
[00:33] <jk^>  - software to install the Microsoft Web fonts
[00:33] <jk^>  - the Adobe Flash plugin"
[00:33] <jk^> wxl,
[00:33] <krabador> che spettacolo
[01:05] <wxl> jk^: it looks to me that that text isn't even true for ubuntu anymore
[01:06] <wxl> jk^: that said, are you looking for something specific?
[01:19] <jk^> no, i just installed lubuntu without check "Install third-party software", but i don't know how to install "ALL" these things "LATER" :\ when operating system is installed
[01:19] <jk^> wxl
[01:19] <wxl> jk^: then if you followed my instruictions, you already did it
[01:22] <jk^> i found that package but it included just some of those things, not all of them
[01:22] <jk^> .\
[01:22] <jk^> :\
[01:22] <jk^> This collection of packages includes:
[01:22] <jk^>   - MP3 and other audio codec software to play various audio formats
[01:22] <jk^>    (mplayer plugins)
[01:22] <jk^>  - software to install the Microsoft Web fonts
[01:22] <jk^>  - the Adobe Flash plugin
[01:22] <wxl> what do you think is not included?
[01:22] <jk^> in this image https://www.poftut.com/wp-content/uploads/2017/08/img_598a8c7bba361.png it talks about software for graphics and wi-fi, ecc...
[01:22] <jk^> also
[01:23] <wxl> is your wifi working?
[01:23] <jk^> not tried it
[01:23] <wxl> because that's an if and only if thing
[01:24] <wxl> long story short, you already replicated that task
[01:24] <wxl> ignore the words. whta you did is what the code does :)
[01:25] <jk^> excuse me, but i don't understand, but the problem now is my poor english :\ can u tell it in other simplier way?
[01:26] <wxl> jk^: it is done. you did it.
[01:26] <jk^> no, i didn't check that checkbox :\
[01:27] <wxl> but you did what checking the checkbox woudl have done
[01:29] <jk^> did i do that? :\ i didn't nothign until now...
[01:30] <jk^> neither installed "lubuntu-restricted-extras" yet
[01:31] <wxl> well that's why you need to do that.....
[01:39] <jk^> ok, i'm doing that
[01:39] <jk^> wxl
[01:40] <Kamilion> what's up?
[01:40] <wxl> didn't check the nonfree checkbox when installing
[01:40] <Kamilion> oh, problems with the "lubuntu-restricted-extras" checkbox in the installer?
[01:40] <wxl> trying to replicate it
[01:40] <Kamilion> oh, just didn't check the box
[01:40] <Kamilion> apt install lubuntu-restricted-extras
[01:40] <wxl> that's what i said
[01:40] <Kamilion> should sort it
[01:40] <wxl> XD
[01:43] <jk^> it shows me an error, but in log there isnt' that error

[09:22] <LuMint> hello! I wanted to ask if there was any accessibility feature in LXDE.In particular I'm interested in a lens (feature to zoom the screen picture)
[09:57] <zleap> anyone here know about mounting filesystens please chat to ssarah  in #xubuntu
[10:01] <laceylaney> Tell them to check the arch wiki on filesystems........  https://wiki.archlinux.org/index.php/File_systems
[10:01] <redwolf> LuMint, LXDE is a minimal desktop and it ships the minimum app set
[10:02] <redwolf>   but you can install KMag to enable a magnifier tool. it has a lot of KDE dependencies, but it's worth the install if you need it to work
[10:04] <laceylaney> Install orca and the magnifier will follow the mouse. Would have less dependencies than kde........ apt-get install gnome-orca
[10:12] <Shawn|C2Duo> howdy
[10:13] <Shawn|C2Duo> are ubuntu zesty updates gone?
[10:13] <Shawn|C2Duo> or do they still exist?
[10:17] <hateball> !eolupgrade | Shawn|C2Duo
[10:18] <laceylaney> Zesty has reached it's end of life so updates have most likely ended........ http://fridge.ubuntu.com/2018/01/17/ubuntu-17-04-zesty-zapus-reached-end-of-life-on-january-13-2018/
[10:19] <Shawn|C2Duo> oh
[10:19] <Shawn|C2Duo> so I can't upgrade from it?
[10:21] <laceylaney> You can still upgrade. The os will just not be receiving any more updates. Have a look at at eolupgreades........ https://help.ubuntu.com/community/EOLUpgrades
[10:23] <murii> can someone who has a LTS version run this command please? lsb_release -a
[10:23] <murii> and give me the output
[10:25] <laceylaney> Here's your output........ https://paste.ubuntu.com/26504983/
[10:25] <murii> laceylaney, thanks, that's what I was looking for
[10:25] <laceylaney> Not a problem :-)
[10:28] <LuMint> redwolf: thank you
[10:29] <Shawn|C2Duo> i got it :)
[10:29] <Shawn|C2Duo> someone helped me with do-system-upgrade
[10:54] <murii> when will version 18lts be released?
[11:02] <LioneLL> end april
[14:25] <jk^> hi wxl
[14:25] <jk^> i'm looking for what we talking about, yesterday...
[14:25] <jk^> i'm looking for what we were talking about, yesterday...
[17:44] <xaeB5> hi. when i try to run apt remove pidgin, it is also wanting to remove lubuntu-desktop and lubuntu-gtk-desktop. is it safe to proceed?
 I wouldn't.
[17:44] <wxl> oh shush
[17:44] <wxl> they're just index files
[17:44] <wxl> you can remove them
[17:44] <wxl> BUT if the content of lubuntu-desktop changes in fhte future you won't get those
[17:45] <xaeB5> what do you mean by the content of lubuntu-desktop changing?
[17:46] <wxl> lubuntu-desktop is an index, basically
[17:46] <wxl> it says "install all these apps"
[17:46] <wxl> with it installed, if we switch what apps make up lubuntu-desktop, you'll get those new changes in the future
[17:46] <wxl> without, the system stays as is
[17:46] <xaeB5> oh
[17:47] <xaeB5> hmm
[17:48] <xaeB5> is that likely/common that it would get changed?
[17:48] <wxl> no, but nothing's impossible
[17:48] <xaeB5> ok i'll risk it then
[17:48] <wxl> just replace all the offending parts of pidgin with blank files. problem solved.
[17:49] <wxl> is hard drive space really THAT much of an issue?
[17:50] <xaeB5> well i didn't see the point in having two chat clients and two torrent clients installed, it's not about the HD space
[17:50] <xaeB5> i'll just leave them i guess
[17:50] <wxl> it's not going to hurt you
[17:50] <wxl> if it's visually difficult for you, you can remove them from your menu
[17:51] <xaeB5> that's true
[17:52] <xaeB5> i have a strange issue where when i lock my screen and come back to it later, it's slow to bring up the password dialog, and when i enter the password it always goes to a black screen and thinks for 5 seconds, then gives me the password dialog again as if it didn't accept it the first time, but the second attempt always workas
[17:53] <xaeB5> lol
[17:53] <xaeB5> i can eventually get in on the second attempt so it's not urgent, but i'm throwing it out there in case anyone here has that issue and fixed it somehow
[17:54] <wxl> never heard of it. you can always file a bug. you might want to look and see if there's anything interesting going on in logs
[17:55] <wxl> https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/light-locker/+bug/1631715
[18:06] <xaeB5> yea that sounds like my bug exactly
[18:42] <wxl> jk^: oh. i should have paid more attention. that's not an error. it's a warning, thus the "w."
[18:48] <jk^> wxl, i don't understand :\
[18:48] <wxl> jk^: you don't have a problem.
[18:50] <jk^> ok, now i understand
[18:50] <jk^> why i get this error? W: Can't drop privileges for downloading as file '/var/lib/update-notifier/package-data-downloads/partial/adobe-flashplugin_20180109.1.orig.tar.gz' couldn't be accessed by user '_apt'. - pkgAcquire::Run (13: Permesso negato)
[18:50] <jk^> Installing from local file /var/lib/update-notifier/package-data-downloads/partial/adobe-flashplugin_20180109.1.orig.tar.gz
[18:50] <wxl> it's not an error
[18:50] <wxl> it's a warning
[18:50] <jk^> maybe, because i have chromiun opened?
[18:50] <wxl> the "w" at the beginning stands for warning
[18:51] <jk^> so when it tries to install flash player, it ecountered a problem?
[18:51] <wxl> no
[18:51] <wxl> i think it will be difficult for me to explain this to you given the language issues
[18:51] <wxl> so just trust me
[18:52] <wxl> but if you must: apt changed its security methodology for fetchers (which are rarely used in *OPEN SOURCE* software, but are common for nonfree stuff). the way it's set up, it works, but it's not ideal, given that. so it gives a warning.
[18:53] <wxl> as a general rule, if you see a warning, you probably don't need to worry about it.
[19:02] <jk^> ok
[19:04] <jk^> wxl
[19:07] <siloxid> I'm running a different window manager from ~/.xsession. but when I apt dist-upgrade my system, it starts ignoring the .xsession file and drops me into the default window manager. what is it looking for to load the WM I want if not the traditional .xsession file?
