[00:00] <[itchyjunk]> hm, it tells me it is already installed. :: https://bpa.st/2D2A [00:00] <[itchyjunk]> but `qemu-system-riscv32` returns a `command not found` [00:01] ahhhhh [00:01] it must have been added to our packages after bionic [00:01] <[itchyjunk]> ah :< [00:23] Hi. I can't install a package from PPA. I'm new to PPAs, not sure if I'm missing something. I'm on Ubuntu 20.04 and want to install qt4-x11 from https://launchpad.net/~rock-core/+archive/ubuntu/qt4/ . This link says that they have a package called qt4-x11 for focal. I used the commands given to add this ppa repository, I can confirm this PPA is in [00:23] /etc/apt/sources.list.d/ too, but after running apt update, I still can't install it. There's no qt4-x11. https://paste.debian.net/plain/1212057 [00:24] is launchpad updated manually or something? is it possible the ppa page is out of sync with the actual packages served? [00:27] Heeeeelp: qt4-x11 looks to be the source package name. You'll want to install one of the binary packages listed here. https://launchpad.net/~rock-core/+archive/ubuntu/qt4/+packages [00:29] Heeeeelp: Looks to be suspect as "Sylvain Joyeux (2020-05-10)" indicates has had no love in some time. [00:29] I see...you have to click View Package Details to be taken to that page that then lets you expand the package names. Thanks! [00:30] he's in Brazil, I'm sure he can find love in the wrong places if he wanted [00:35] honestly, for qt4, it probably hasn't had any chances in years anyway, right? [00:35] s/chances/changes/ [00:36] I think upstream was done with qt4 something like five years ago [00:36] I'm not good with time, that's a guess :) [00:37] you're correct, probably 5 years ago. but I have an old app that still uses it and wanted to run it on Ubuntu 20.04. [00:39] the alternative wouldnt be updating the code, it would be having to run a VM [00:40] or maybe lxd container / snap / etc kind of thing [00:42] I would have thought apt-file (to list/search contents of packages) would include any apt package, including PPA. But after apt installing libqtcore4, then running "sudo apt-file update" and "apt-file list libqtcore4" I get nothing [00:42] yeah, well the 1st step to run it in a snap would be to get my hands on those libraries :) [00:45] oh, locate gives me the same thing. Those packages might just be broken [00:46] hrm. I kinda expected apt-file to work with ppas too, but now I realize I'm not sure.. [00:46] nm, I see files with "dpkg -L libqtcore4". [00:46] locate only works if you've got the packages installed and there's been a updatedb run after it was installed [00:46] so it's only apt-file and locate that dont. Perhaps a manifest or whatever is missing from the PPA packages. [00:47] sarnold: you're right, I see something when I run updatedb manually. I thought it would've run automatically after an apt install [00:48] *i see something in "locate libqtcore4" [00:49] Heeeeelp: normally it runs overnight.. it can take hours to run, so it's best it doesn't run after every apt install / upgrade / purge :) [00:50] really, hours? it took less than a second for me [00:51] yeah, I've got a system with a few hundred million files on it [00:51] maybe billions? I forget. it takes an eternity to count them :) [00:55] I'm afraid to ask :) [00:55] but I will. What kind of files? [00:56] I've unpacked all the source packages for everything in ubuntu [00:58] are you trying to do Ubuntu development? [01:02] updatedb has a cron or timer entry, but I'd recommend plocate over mlocate as it's much faster. [01:03] Heeeeelp: sort of; I usually use it to search for vulnerabilities [01:03] plocate is magic goodness [01:03] I see. good luck [01:04] d'oh. I wanted to find out how long plocate takes to output something, and the first thing I searched for was taking forever because it was too common and flooding my ssh connection.. [01:04] wow, 6GB of RAM wasnt enough to compile the old app. I used to build it on a desktop with 4GB . I guess gcc improvements need more memory [01:04] the second thing I searched for went *way* faster because the database had already been loaded in memory. kinda wrecked my attempt to time it :) [01:05] Heeeeelp: yeah :/ it's usually useful to reduce parallelism during builds [01:05] first thing I did, even with a singular "make" it ran out of RAM on one file [01:05] anyway, I think locate doesnotexist would take something like a minute and a half on that system; plocate doesnotexist runs in seconds on a cold database and nearly instantly on a hot one [01:06] I have more RAM normally but I'm in the middle of an RMA for my 2nd memory stick which died on me. Guess I'll wait a few days. [01:06] $ time locate doesnotexist | wc -l [01:06] 263 [01:06] real 0m0.022s [01:06] Heeeeelp: ouch :( [01:08] appreciate the help, I'm gonna go eat! [01:08] enjoy :) === M4he is now known as mahe === powerhiker1 is now known as powerhiker [02:01] Is there a straightforward way to install just a single packages man pages without unminimizing? [02:02] I've got a docker container here, and I'm installing tcpdump to to do some debugging, and getting access to the man page for this system required running unminimize, which takes like 5 minutes [02:03] This exists: https://manpages.ubuntu.com [02:04] Yeah, I suppose. It always seems like there's a mismatch between web man pages and the man pages that correspond to a package for a particular version though [02:05] But I see that Ubuntu now has it by distro version [02:05] So thanks for the recommendation, Guest17 [02:07] WrathOfAchilles: I very much like the 'dman' program [02:07] WrathOfAchilles: sigh. sorry. you already know about dman :) === XV8 is now known as xv8 [02:51] sarnold: Yes, though I don't think it's common to know of it, or the other tools in debian-goodies. === RaGE_Syria3 is now known as RaGE_Syria [03:37] I want to run a program (server listening at port) on bootup ?

[11:13] there's 1 Windows reserved, 1 NTFS, and free space - all summs up to the QLC part of the H10 - the whole visible capacity is NOT 256+16GB ...that tells me that i'm still not seeing the 3dXpoint portion [11:15] that's how the H10 came out of the box - a bit odd, that they'd format it with NTFS - usually new storage is blank [11:17] i've double-checkt the item description - it's new/pulled from working & wiped - SMART reports only 1 whole drive write === birb is now known as erica === saribro is now known as swinnenb [12:28] Hi all [13:12] Hi all, Does anyone know the name of the Kubuntu group that is the equivalent of Fedora's lock group ?

[18:16] Or is it that just this property is unavailable in Ubuntu? [18:29] (Ubuntu Server 20.04.03) === gr33n7001 is now known as gr33n7007h [19:06] GWM: as far as I'm aware there's no crypto-policies support in ubuntu yet. I have to admit I don't understand how we have imported the packages from debian but don't actually support it, but it sure feels like it ought to be possible to do. I just don't know how, learning it has been on my todo list for ages [19:11] sarnold, fair enough, I already had what I needed for my homelab, but curiosity piqued my interest [19:11] setting the policy to FUTURE is good enough on 20.04 at least [19:14] GWM: lol FUTURE :D [19:15] That's what the policy is called [19:15] and yes, it has to be in caps [19:17] (no, not a joke, the file is called FUTURE.pol and under RHEL at least it exists under /usr/share/crypto-policies/policies/FUTURE.pol) [19:17] I checked Ubuntu Server and it's in the same place with the same name [19:18] For anyone reading this and is curious, I recommend the RH documentation: https://access.redhat.com/documentation/en-us/red_hat_enterprise_linux/8/html/security_hardening/using-the-system-wide-cryptographic-policies_security-hardening [19:20] Typical use case is hardening an env from reports from vulnerability scans and security compliances scans, a more practical example is allowing your Linux server to talk to an older Active Directory LDAPS instance, in which case you may have to set LEGACY depending on when it was installed [19:22] GWM: man that's nice. that's a thousand times nicer than trying to edit the openssl.cnf file.

(thinking XDG compliant) [19:32] I can handle copying the configs myself, I already know exactly which ones, I have a setup script that does that already [19:33] my biggest issue is being able to reproduce a stable set of package versions, there's several upstream repos I'm pulling from for various things [19:35] ezakimak: perhaps dpkg --get-selections on one machine, dpkg --set-selections on the other machine, and then apt install -f [19:36] looking at that output I don't see any versions included [19:37] Hmmm...
