[09:07] <OlivierG76> #netplan
[14:50] <OlivierG76> Are there build instructions for netplan (target ubuntu 18.04) ?
[14:51] <OlivierG76> sudo make; sudo install runs ok, but is there a way to create deb ou snaps ?
[14:51] <slyon> OlivierG76: netplan uses a simple Makefile... so it would be just 'apt build-dep netplan.io' (to get all the build-dependencies) an running 'make' afterwards
[14:53] <slyon> The official debs are build using this tree: https://git.launchpad.net/~ubuntu-core-dev/netplan/+git/ubuntu/log/?h=ubuntu/bionic (see debian/ folder)
[14:53] <slyon> using 'debuild'
[15:00] <OlivierG76> Is tag 0.100 ready for bionic ?
[15:16] <slyon> no. Some features of 0.100 are not supported on bionic
[15:16] <slyon> 0.99 is supported on bionic
[15:17] <slyon> if you want to use 0.100 on bionic some backporting is needed to disable non-working features
[15:20] <OlivierG76> ok, thanks
[15:25] <OlivierG76> I was looking for the ovs functions
[15:28] <slyon> IIRC the OVS feature should be working in theory.. but still to build it for bionic and make it pass the tests, the backporting of other features (e.g. route-options, which require newer NetworkManager) would need to happen.
[15:28] <slyon> Do you have any chance of upgrading your system to 20.04/Focal LTS? As I'm currently working on getting netplan 0.100 into Focal.
[15:29] <OlivierG76> ok, it seems a good alternative
[15:30] <slyon> cool, progress is tracked here: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/netplan.io/+bug/1894197 ... it will probably take 1-2 weeks to get it into focal-updates
[15:35] <slyon> Or you could even install it from this (temporary) PPA, if you want it now on focal: https://launchpad.net/~ci-train-ppa-service/+archive/ubuntu/4274/+packages
[15:40] <OlivierG76> Great i will try
[15:43] <slyon> May I ask in which kind of environment you want to use the OVS functionality?
[15:43] <slyon> (just out of interest, as this is very new)
[15:45] <OlivierG76> I want to activate OVS for some machines running Openstack neutron, with the ovs plugin
[15:46] <slyon> cool, thanks!
[15:46] <OlivierG76> the idea is too have some nic connect to a ovs bridge when the machine "boots" (prior to any installation)
[16:00] <slyon> yeah that is what it is meant to be used for
[16:18] <OlivierG76> ok fine; it is working

[16:21] <OlivierG76> Good ! perfect.
[16:22] <slyon> very nice :)
[16:24] <OlivierG76> with ubuntu 18.04, i was getting: /lib/netplan/generate: symbol lookup error
[16:24] <OlivierG76> the files in /run/systemd/system/...netplanovs... are not created
[16:41] <OlivierG76> I was able to suppress the error (ubunt18.04) with appropriate removal of libnetplan library and netplan.io
[16:41] <OlivierG76> I will have another look tomorrow
[22:14] <javi404> yay, now i know there is a channel here.
