maswanHm. Just hit a small snag at $work, the big Application has started to require zookeeper >=3.5, but there's only 3.4s packaged as far as I can see. anyone know of a 3.5 packaging somewhere that we could get going, or a reasonably well-maintained repo somewhere?09:07
iseneUse Case = Large business needs a private cloud solution that hooks into AD and can be accessed as a file system from Windows Explorer, from an iOS and Android app and from web. Needs to be Open Source as specific extensions needs to be built for bidirectional access to files in legacy systems. Version control and easy rollback to earlier versions is required. Sharing to external parties via09:12
iseneweb links - both directories and specific files. There is a multitude of solutions. Can anyone here suggest one or two? And yes, should be running on Ubuntu.09:12
sdezielI don't understand why the zfs-auto-snapshot package is in multiverse instead of universe. Its copyright file says it's all GPL-2+. What am I missing?14:54

thelounge5207I'm attempting to run an ntp server on my box so some devices I have isolated on the network can still get time updates, but when I attempt to enable the service, it says it's masked. should I go about doing this a different way?18:39
sdezielthelounge5207: which OS version and what ntp server are you using?18:43
thelounge520720.0418:43
thelounge5207and just attempting to run systemctl start ntp18:43
sdezielwith 20.04, the recommended NTP server is chrony18:44
thelounge5207ahh18:45
sdezielthat said, ntp should still work. Could you pastebin the command and error?18:45

thelounge5207I know I can unmask it, but sine I didn't mask it myself, wasn't sure if it was set that way by default for a reason and I should be wary with unmasking it18:46
kinghati have unmounted a disk and im trying to write a fs to the partition but it tells me the system is using it. im not sure how to get around that.18:46
sdezielthelounge5207: 'sudo systemctl unmask ntp' should get you going but I still recommend taking a look at chrony ;)18:48
thelounge5207will do, thanks!18:48
iseneI have a couple of servers over at DigitalOcean. Both are plain Ubuntu servers. Upon upgrading to 20.04 I realize the servers are quite bloated with stuff I would never ever need - like X stuff etc. Is there a safe script somewhere that can remove the bloat?23:03
sarnoldisene: I usually use apt purge on a package I suspect I don't need, inspect the list of things it's going to remove, then either go through with it or not23:04
sarnoldisene: once I've done that a few times, then I use 'orphaner' from the deborphan package to find other things to remove23:04
tomreynyour first answer was not good enough.23:05
tomreyn(apparently)23:06
sarnoldor it was perfect :)23:06
tomreynhehe, good point23:10
tdsor they just discovered their irc client doesn't count as bloat :D23:10
sarnoldlol23:11
selfyHello! I have a question about current process of building ubuntu cloud images. Maybe someone knowns the answer... I want to understand how ubuntu team create cloud images? which toolchain are they using? Can I find somewhere CI/CD build scripts? I want to try to create my own cloud image from scratch using automatic script (not from other cloud image). Sorry if this channel not for so lame23:19
selfyquestions and supporting23:19
sarnoldisene: once I've done that a few times, then I use 'orphaner' from the deborphan package to find other things to remove23:20
isenesarnold: So - what script (if any) did you use to automate the process? Because traversing the packages and lifting out bloat is a tidious process and could perhaps break stuff I I'm a bit too agressive...23:24
iseneOr, rather - do you know of any such script?23:25
sarnoldisene: I've always been content to just remove big things like X and clean up loose ends23:25
sarnoldisene: another option is to start from the ubuntu cloud images and install just what you want, though that doesn't help with your existing machines23:26
isenesarnold: Yeah, I'd rather not spend the weekend going from scratch :-)23:27
