| Knight_Wrk | mornin everyone | 10:28 |
| daftykins | KrimZon_2: mmm i had the same not long ago after the snow melted into mine! :) | 12:51 |
| KrimZon_2 | mine's mostly underground - I'm not sure what could've happened to it | 13:13 |
| KrimZon_2 | Actually there's one weird ubuntu-related thing that's arisen at the same time - when I try "sudo apt-get upgrade" I get the error "Clearsigned file isn't valid, got 'NOSPLIT' (does the network require authentication?)" | 13:15 |
| KrimZon_2 | I'm not sure if it's related | 13:15 |
| daftykins | what version do you have installed? | 13:16 |
| daftykins | you'd want to be running update prior to an upgrade as well of course, does that run cleanly? | 13:16 |
| KrimZon_2 | oh, I meant update | 13:24 |
| KrimZon_2 | it's the update that causes that message | 13:25 |
| KrimZon_2 | I've got 18.04, which I've had since alpha | 13:25 |
| daftykins | can you do a "sudo apt update | nc termbin.com 9999" and share the link it hopefully generates? | 13:27 |
| KrimZon_2 | ok | 13:28 |
| KrimZon_2 | http://termbin.com/6e3v | 13:29 |
| daftykins | are you somewhere with a shared internet connection right now? | 13:32 |
| daftykins | or just anywhere likely to be using a proxy for web access? | 13:32 |
| KrimZon_2 | no, it's my home network | 13:33 |
| KrimZon_2 | I have apt-cache installed, but that's been working fine for a while | 13:33 |
| KrimZon_2 | i'll try disabling it | 13:33 |
| KrimZon_2 | when I can remember what file you edit to set it up | 13:34 |
| daftykins | /etc/name of program/ is pretty common :> | 13:35 |
| daftykins | you can also "dpkg -L <package name>" to show the files present | 13:36 |
| KrimZon_2 | that seemed to fix it | 13:36 |
| daftykins | neat, just a misconfiguration somewhere then | 13:36 |
| KrimZon_2 | but i'm not sure why it would break - I think it's unrelated to my internet connection | 13:36 |
| KrimZon_2 | oh, no, it happened again | 13:36 |
| KrimZon_2 | never mind, that was just another terminal window i'd forgotten about | 13:37 |
| KrimZon_2 | it's just a stock apt-cacher install from the repo though | 13:39 |
| daftykins | never touched it i'm afraid | 13:40 |
| daftykins | what's the intended use? do you point other computers to the one that you update first to save the download cap or something? | 13:40 |
| KrimZon_2 | sort of like that, except they download in different orders | 13:43 |
| KrimZon_2 | apparently according to the internet squid-deb-proxy is better, so I'll try that instead | 13:43 |
| daftykins | mmm can't really follow what you're trying to achieve :) | 13:44 |
| KrimZon_2 | just caching deb files on the server so I don't keep redownloading them when I have a bunch of ubuntu 18.04 installs | 13:46 |
| daftykins | ah yeah, i used to just scp the files from the /var/cache/apt/archives to another host then update | 13:47 |
| dharmin | leena | 14:19 |
| daftykins | diddledan: hrmm you up for some paid work from some friends o' mine for looking over the potentially vulnerable old wordpress site of theirs? | 15:57 |
| daftykins | haven't received the backup yet, mind you | 16:05 |
| zmoylan-pi | they're looking for the floppy they kept it on.... :-) | 16:08 |
| daftykins | probably :D | 16:10 |
| daftykins | discovered today that my mates mother in law has a mailbox sat out on hosting which isn't accessed directly, with 110,000 emails on | 16:10 |
| diddledan | sure | 16:10 |
| diddledan | lol @ zmoylan-pi | 16:10 |
| diddledan | tape, surely? | 16:10 |
| daftykins | :D | 16:11 |
| zmoylan-pi | a basf c60 cassette.... from their zx spectrum... :-P | 16:12 |
