mwhudsonznf: the server installer supports having multiple ESPs in focal+03:39
znfyeah, only focal :P03:40
mwhudsonznf: it's not raid, but its redunancy03:40
znfthis was on 18.04 03:40
mwhudsonah03:40
znfkinda weird that nobody thought about it until 20.04 03:40
mybalzitchI dunno how important it is, but installing the hwe kernel meta package (I thought) doesn't call linux-tools-generic-hwe-20.04 as a required package04:44
=== genii is now known as genii-core
amurraylinux-tools is not installed by default with the -generic kernel so this is the same then for the hwe kernel meta package - in either case you need to install the appropriate linux-tools package manually04:46
mybalzitchyeah it kept trying to install old 5.4 kernel sstuff I was trying to purge04:50
mybalzitchnot sure how essential it is 04:50

mncheckmwhere is the focal server guide source? I can't find it in https://launchpad.net/serverguide only bionic and xenial16:59
ogramncheckm, how about https://discourse.ubuntu.com/t/ubuntu-server-guide/12504 17:02
mncheckmogra thanks ,that explains it17:02
ograyeah, just remembered that 🙂17:02
mncheckmogra so how do I clone this guide now?17:03
ograheh, no idea perhaps there is some discourse API ?17:03
ogra(ask in the discourse thread !)17:04
mncheckmogra I found that an administrator can do it https://meta.discourse.org/t/topic-and-category-export-import/38930 but I just want to do it as an user17:05
mncheckmogra, thanks17:06
mncheckmI wonder how the pdf was made 17:07
mncheckmI wanted the source because the pdf is a bit messy17:07
ograwell, better ask in discourse then ...17:08
ogra(directly on the above thread i'd say)17:08
mncheckmogra, oh I was trying to find a thread called "discourse"17:09
mncheckmogra, ok!17:09
ograIIRC that is one of the reasons to use discourse, so people can directly comment 17:10
mncheckmogra, ok17:12
JanCthere are specific documentation tools that allow commenting while keeping the source in source control...18:38
ograJanC, tell the people that decided all ubuntu docs need to go to discourse 😛18:39

sarnoldthe number of times I've wished the wiki were a big pile of markdowns in git.. *sigh*19:41
JanCthere are wikis like that...19:51
smoserrbasak: i think this is "ignore the warning", but kind of annoying19:58
smoserhttps://paste.ubuntu.com/p/2XK4znrwzN/plain/19:58
smoserat least for *me*, 'git ubuntu clone existing-package' ends in:19:59
smoserfatal: could not read Username for 'https://git.launchpad.net': terminal prompts disabled19:59
smoserit does exit 0, but... not a warm fuzzy. i suspect it is because i have not cloned that package to lp git.20:00
rbasaksmoser: yeah it's annoying. https://bugs.launchpad.net/usd-importer/+bug/1761821 is the bug20:18
ubottuLaunchpad bug 1761821 in usd-importer "fatal: could not read Username for 'https://git.launchpad.net': terminal prompts disabled" [Undecided, New]20:18
smoserwhat is the preferred way to get an upstream tarball after you've got source with git-ubuntu ?20:35
smoserrbasak:? if you're still around20:35
smoseri have some scripts (https://github.com/canonical/uss-tableflip/blob/main/scripts/get-orig-tarball) but it seems like there is a need until pristine-source branches20:36
=== not_phunyguy is now known as phunyguy
sergiodjsmoser: git ubuntu export-orig should do it20:58
sergiodjthis is what I use locally when building packages20:59
smoserhmm... i didn't know of that.20:59
rbasakWe do have pristine-tar branches but they don't always work. export-orig will use them if possible, or fall back to fetching from LP. IIRC.21:03
smoserperfect. gracias21:14
Sonihow do you receive email?23:43
Soniare there any MTAs that don't suck23:51
sarnoldpostfix is the usual choice23:53
tomreynis this a question you're asking because you don't know or because you have an opinion and want to spread this? in the latter case, please don't do it here.23:53
