[01:41] <hallyn> no more dovecot in bionic?
[01:45] <tomreyn> hallyn: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/livecd-rootfs/+bug/1783129
[01:48] <tomreyn> hallyn: in other words: you are probably missing the 'universe' section in /etc/apt/sources.list
[01:48] <hallyn> tomreyn: thanks - no i guess i hadn't updated the pkg archive corectly, i wasn't finding dovecot at all.  thought maybe it had been replaced :)  thx.
[01:48] <hallyn> no i did have it,
[01:48] <tomreyn> ok
[01:49] <hallyn> i dunno.  misread something.  haven't installed it since 14.04 so "it's been removed" seemed the logica conclusion :)
[01:49] <tomreyn> you can always check on https://packages.ubuntu.com
[01:49] <hallyn> though i don't see dovecot-postfix
[01:50] <hallyn> but that's ok i'm not there yet
[01:50] <tomreyn> i dont know what dovecot-postfix is
[01:50] <tomreyn> no such packages seems to exist (nor do i remember it existing in the past)
[01:51] <hallyn> it's installed on my oler mailserver,
[01:51] <hallyn> i assumed it was needed to support '-o smtpd_sasl_type=dovecot' in postfix, myabe not
[01:52] <tomreyn> therE's definitely an integration between the two, i forgot the details., but i think it's provided by one of the dovecot packages.
[01:57] <hallyn> yeah i'll figure it out - probably changelog should be helpful.  thanks
[02:17] <hallyn> i guess i'm supposed to use mail-stack-delivery
[02:18] <hallyn> this has the fingerprints of rbasak all over it doesn't it :)
[02:19] <hallyn> "Configuring postfix for mail-stack-delivery integration:"   oh good i love me some magic
[02:20] <hallyn> overwrote my ssl key info, but why?
[05:23] <micha234> hi
[05:24] <micha234> trying configure a serial-port connection to my linux server. so far i enabled serial in bios, enabled it in grub, dmesg|grep tty shows me the serial devices, also does stty/setserial, systemd spawned agetty process for ttyS0 via auto-configured serial-getty@ttyS0.service but every time i connect via serial cable no login prompt is visible. "outbound" serial connections to e.g. a switch work fine on the same system. do you ha
[07:15] <micha234> hey, anyone set up a serial-console setup to connect to his ubuntu server?
[11:47] <Helenah> Hi, I've got a custom setup on an Ubuntu Server 18.04 consisting of i3wm, mate-session-manager, zsh, tmux, there is /usr/bin/automux, a custom /etc/adduser.conf, etc
[11:47] <Helenah> It's in a qemu img, however I'm wanting to incorporate into a netinstall.
[11:47] <leftyfb> why do you need a GUI on a server?
[11:47] <Helenah> It's not a server
[11:47] <Helenah> It's intended to be a client install
[11:48] <Helenah> But, Ubuntu Desktop forces Unity and a load of other crappy fancies
[11:48] <leftyfb> Ubuntu 18.04 not longer installs Unity by default
[11:48] <Helenah> Rly?
[11:48] <Helenah> Nice
[11:49] <leftyfb> Helenah: regardless, you'll want to look into preseed
[11:49] <andol> Helenah: If you want something custom to be setup during a netinstall I think the easiest would be to have it applied by way of a configuration management tool.
[11:49] <leftyfb> or that
[11:49] <leftyfb> like ansible
[11:49] <andol> Probably both, with pressed handing over to the config mgmt otol.
[11:50] <Helenah> Okay, but there is something else I'm not happy with... mate-session-manager seems to depend on things like ubuntu-mate-default-settings
[11:50] <Helenah> I don't want any of this
[11:51] <Helenah> I don't it's not a requirement.
[11:51] <Helenah> It just seems when install things with APT, I get non-required bloatware on top claiming it's required.
[11:53] <andol> Helenah: Configured apt to not install Recommends by default? No idea if it helps in the mate case, but in general it cuts down the number of automated installed packages quite a lot.
[11:53] <andol> APT::Install-Recommends "false";
[11:53] <Helenah> Okay thanks
[12:01] <Helenah> andol: One guide recommends to combine kickseed and preseed to get the best of two worlds.
[12:08] <Helenah> andol, leftyfb, Btw, I am really sorry if asking about this in a server channel is inappropriate. With me using server images, I intend to use for clients, not servers, I really didn't know where to ask... o.o
[12:08] <Helenah> I got the idea, that this channel is more appropriate based on the fact I'm using server images.
[12:08] <andol> Helenah: Mostly work with virtual infra these days, so I really don't have much of a qualifed opinion when it comes to kickstart, kickseed or pressed.
[12:09] <Helenah> pressed?
[12:09] <andol> s/pressed/pressed/
[12:09] <andol> Bah
[12:09] <Helenah> Aaah I know what you mean
[12:09] <andol> s/pressed/preseed/
[12:09] <Helenah> preseed
[12:09] <Helenah> Okay, so I got 3 options, I'll give em a whirl
[12:10] <Helenah> Thanks once again for your support
[12:10] <Helenah> andol: I do a like of virtual infrastructure too.
[12:10] <Helenah> s/like/lot
[12:10] <Helenah> I'm sure you knew what I meant too, but just incase... heh
[12:11] <Helenah> and I'm thinking, these options would be good for deploying VMs and physical servers, too, not just clients.
[12:13] <andol> For VMs I'd just prebuild the basics using something like Packer, and possibly hand over the customization to the config mgmt tool.
[16:17] <micha234> hey there, i am failing to get a terminal prompt with agetty/mgetty via serial port. any ideas for troubleshooting?
[16:17] <rypervenche> Could someone test something for me? I'm not able to hear audio on forvo.com for some reason in qutebrowser. I'm trying to figure out if it's on my end or in qutebrowser. Could someone go to https://forvo.com/search/egipto/ and click on one of the triangles to see if it plays audio or if it just hangs?
[16:21] <rypervenche> Oops, sorry wrong channel.
[16:25] <teward> rbasak: powersj: sarnold: cpaelzer: I'm going to push NGINX Mainline plus the fix for https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/nginx/+bug/https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/nginx/+bug/1782226 into Cosmic, we'll track NGINX mainline at least for 18.10 and 19.04 until the 1.16.x release of NGINX Stable in April, and then switch to that in 19.10 before LTS.  At that time we can determine whether we need to trakc Mainline or Stable for
[16:25] <teward> 20.04 LTS (depending on when NGINX Stable releases in 2020.
[16:25] <teward> trying to get this in before FeatureFreeze, becasue that port 80 issue has opened up too many bugs in the past and it's annoying me (and probably other triagers to some extent)
[16:26] <teward> since i heard no complaints from anyone about that proposal i made over a week ago.
[16:26] <teward> that way though we can guarantee we'll be on a 'stable' branch by next LTS.
[17:39] <teward> FYI for the server team: NGINX 1.15.2-0ubuntu1 has been uploaded, it contains the NGINX Mainline latest version and the fix for the port 80 in use detection
[19:03] <Hackwar> hi folks, I updated a headless server to 18.04 and now my SimpleXML for PHP 7.2 is missing. It is listed in the apache2/ config folder, but it is not present in the loaded modules. What do I have to do? apt-get install php-xml doesn't work
[19:03] <Hackwar> (I removed the package and installed it again and it didn't change the situation)
[19:07] <lotuspsychje> Hackwar: please idle a bit here ok, volunteers are worldwide here on different timezones ok
[19:55] <blackflow> Hackwar: does php -m list it?
[20:37] <teward> Hackerpcs: did you restart the Apache server to make sure it picks it up?
[20:37] <teward> I'm assuming you did but
[20:37] <Hackerpcs> heh
[20:37] <Hackerpcs> wrong tab :P
[20:37] <teward> oops
[20:37] <teward> they left
[20:37] <teward> sorry :)
[20:37] <Hackerpcs> nvm
[20:37] <teward> *goes back to kicking around packages for the repository)
