| sybariten | i keep harping on about this in another channel but havent really come to a good solution yet so i figure i'd give it a shot here too: I'm looking for suggestoins on how to practically set up a little system to be able to store command/history in a centralized place (git server) | 00:17 |
|---|---|---|
| sybariten | more specifically, i'd like to be able to treat certain commandlines like "bookmarks" or something . Long complicated lines that i want to remmeber. I see no point in storing complete history sessions per default, i'd rather be able to pick out what i want to stow away (after this long commandline has been used, i guess) ... | 00:18 |
| sarnold | sybariten: https://github.com/nicksherron/bashhub-server/ https://github.com/rcaloras/bashhub-client | 00:18 |
| sybariten | sarnold: yeah, there are umpteen different solutions out there but in my experience they all do slightly different things than what i'm looking for to achieve | 00:19 |
| sarnold | sybariten: yeah.. these two caught my fancy ages ago.. | 00:21 |
| sarnold | sybariten: here's something different but similar https://github.com/Xion/gisht | 00:21 |
| sarnold | while trying to find this I found there's way more like it, heh | 00:21 |
| sybariten | thank you for the links though! I think i've read about ... bashhub, at least. (Mayube the other one too). I remember thinking it was bold of them to offer to store peoples history, they offer the server space right? | 00:23 |
| sarnold | yeah | 00:23 |
| sarnold | I couldn't trust that myself | 00:23 |
| sarnold | so I'm glad someone put together a server for it.. but I'd really want to read them both pretty well before trusting them :) | 00:24 |
| === Sayona_ is now known as Sayona | ||
| sybariten | Yeah, personally i'm quite (too) relaxed when it comes to security like that so i would in fact probably trust them and maybe i should just suck it up and use bashhub ... the thing is, what i essentially want to do isn't very complicated and all so if i can just figure out how to tie things together.... | 00:40 |

| lifeboy | The documentation page for Roundcube installed from packages is not correct, but I'm not sure how to fix it. | 08:47 |
| lifeboy | Actually, it seems the package for Ubuntu 20.04 is broken. | 08:48 |
| lifeboy | The config creates and alias for Apache pointing at /var/lib/roundcube, but much of Roundcube is not symlinked to /usr/share/roundcube | 08:49 |
| ogra | lifeboy, while you could use "ubuntu-bug roundcube" to report this into launchpad, it does not look like roundcube is ever touched in ubuntu, it comes straight from debian as is ... so better file a bug there | 08:52 |
| SpeedStick | I need help every time I boot my Ubuntu machine my drivers aren't loading right | 08:59 |

| SpeedStick | it feels like restarting ubuntu takes a solid hour with all the troubleshooting I do with every reboot | 09:02 |
| SpeedStick | its tiring | 09:02 |
| SpeedStick | so I got everything working | 09:10 |
| SpeedStick | but how can I make sure my drivers load when I reboot? | 09:10 |
| lifeboy | ravage: Yes, you get the roundcube login, but you can't run the configuration scripts. | 09:14 |
| lifeboy | ogra: Yes, I think I'll do that. Not getting much traction on askubuntu about this either | 09:15 |
| Jeremy31 | SpeedStick: what wifi driver? | 09:19 |

| linsux | is it possible to upgrade 21.10 to 22.04 lts? if yes how do i do it? | 09:22 |
| TheLinuxNerd | linsux, 1. 22.04 is not yet released | 09:22 |
| TheLinuxNerd | 21st of April | 09:22 |
| TheLinuxNerd | see you then. 2. /etc/apt/sources.list edit | 09:22 |
| linsux | i mean when it's out | 09:22 |
| SpeedStick | isn't it pretty painless to upgrade? | 09:23 |
| knightwise | Installing a persistent copy of 20.04 on a usb stick atm | 09:23 |
| knightwise | amazing how fast this thing is | 09:23 |
| linsux | can i change /etc/update-manager/release-upgrades from normal to lts | 09:23 |
| linsux | and then do-release-upgrade to update from 21.10 to 22.04 | 09:23 |
| TheLinuxNerd | linsux, you should change that, but do-release-upgrade won't work until 22.04.1 | 09:24 |
| TheLinuxNerd | and I for one plan to install 22.04.0 | 09:25 |
| TheLinuxNerd | on my home PC (for goodness sakes don't install a .0 LTS on a server :-D) | 09:25 |
| linsux | i'll wait then. i now have 21.10 and planning to upgrade to 22.04 | 09:26 |
| TheLinuxNerd | so for home is fine | 09:26 |
| TheLinuxNerd | just don't do it on Ubuntu server | 09:26 |
| linsux | for home desktop | 09:26 |
| TheLinuxNerd | linsux, look, I'll still be here on the 21st of April and we'll follow the procedure both | 09:27 |
| linsux | on my 24/7 server i run rhel | 09:27 |
| TheLinuxNerd | I have 20.04 LTS, but is the same procedure | 09:27 |
| linsux | less update | 09:27 |
| TheLinuxNerd | Ubuntu 20.04 also on server | 09:27 |
| TheLinuxNerd | but I'll update that one after 22.04.1 | 09:28 |
| linsux | it should be quite stable right | 09:28 |
| linsux | what you run on server | 09:28 |
| TheLinuxNerd | yes, but server will be downtime, cause I have to configure the new PHP, blah blah blah | 09:29 |
| TheLinuxNerd | I remember 18.04 to 20.04 | 09:29 |

| nat2 | Jeremy31 how do i check lol | 09:50 |
| Jeremy31 | nat, in terminal> cat /etc/os-release | 09:51 |
| nat2 | 21.04 | 09:51 |
| Jeremy31 | nat2: that one is no longer supported, ended January this year | 09:54 |
| nat2 | Jeremy31, makes sense - didn't have any updates for about 2 months yes | 09:55 |
| nat2 | how to i upgrade to a newer version | 09:55 |
| Jeremy31 | nat2: You may have to change your sources.list on something not supported | 09:56 |
| Jeremy31 | !eolupgrade | 09:56 |

Usually, when I reset it'll then kick me into GRUB where I can select and boot 0.35, and that boots fine. I've tried reinstalling `linux-image-generic` but the same issue occurs. Any ideas? Many thanks. | 14:30 |

| ubottu | rootx74: It's not technically our business, but we'd like to tell you that IRC'ing as root is a Very Bad Idea (tm). After all, doing anything as root when root is not needed is bad, and especially bad with software that connects to the Internet. | 14:30 |
| oerheks | SantanaFtRobThom, what if you boot in -35 and run dist-upgrade again? | 14:31 |

| leftyfb | SantanaFtRobThom: either run dist-upgrade or contact your work administrators | 14:33 |
| SantanaFtRobThom | And dist-upgrade _won't_ kick me to 22.04? | 14:33 |
| leftyfb | no | 14:33 |
| SantanaFtRobThom | because as much as I'd like that that'll be a Bad Time for me | 14:33 |
| leftyfb | especially since 22.04 isn't released yet | 14:33 |
| leftyfb | SantanaFtRobThom: sudo apt update ; sudo apt full-upgrade | 14:33 |
| SantanaFtRobThom | Okay I'll give that a shot. | 14:34 |
| oerheks | dpkg -l | grep linux-image # might give a clue | 14:34 |

| decryphe | i'm trying to use "ubuntu-image" to build a classic image | 14:35 |
| oerheks | caused by a nvidia driver.. | 14:35 |
| SantanaFtRobThom | full-upgrade only installed `The following NEW packages will be installed | 14:36 |

| decryphe | i'm trying "ubuntu-image classic --debug --output-dir images/ --project base --suite focal --arch arm64 --subarch raspi --workdir /tmp/ubuntu-build --thru load_gadget_yaml pi-gadget/" with pi-gadget being the snapcraft/pi-gadget repo | 14:36 |
| oerheks | decryphe, next 22.04 gives a raspi image http://cdimage.ubuntu.com/daily-preinstalled/pending/ | 14:36 |
| SantanaFtRobThom | But I have recently installed nvidia drivers for an abortive attempt to use an eGPU | 14:37 |

| ogra | decryphe, regulary ... got any issue with building ubuntu core images ? | 15:35 |
| decryphe | it's still an open question if we could build images with the requirement of signing with keys through the snap store | 15:36 |
| decryphe | traditionally, we support our devices for way longer than 10 years | 15:36 |
| ogra | you can build completely local images using the --snap option so you can add your own kernel and gadget snaps | 15:37 |
| ogra | (and could theoretically also use your own base snap, practically that one will indeed fall out of support after 10y) | 15:38 |
| decryphe | which is why we're looking at either: | 15:39 |
| decryphe | 1) taking an existing image, running that in qemu, updating/patching it, installing separate software, packing that | 15:39 |
| decryphe | 2) building a traditional image using "ubuntu-image classic" and configure that to pull in the in-house-software | 15:39 |
| decryphe | in the tutorials for ubuntu core i haven't seen much info on how to build images completely locally, got any pointers where i can read up on that? | 15:40 |
| decryphe | as a side-note: for a traditional build, we'd mirror a subset of the main repo using aptly, just to make sure that we still have all the bits and pieces needed, 10+ years down the road | 15:44 |
| ogra | decryphe, https://ubuntu.com/core/docs/image-building | 15:55 |
| ogra | i must admit i havnet used ubuntu-image a lot for any classic images ... | 15:55 |
| nuxnux | so this question is likely to be asked | 16:09 |
| nuxnux | ad nauseam, the reason I am asking is because I wonder over time if something has changed with the opensource drivers. I have a laptop with a BCM43227 wifi card and I know there is closed source driver but is the open source driver now a fine replacement in the same way the noveau driver is fine for the average user with an older nvidia card? | 16:09 |
| ravage | why dont you just try it? | 16:11 |
| oerheks | BCM broadcom is a vendor with poor support. and yes, openradeon is good enough. | 16:11 |
| nuxnux | ravage, well it doesnt seem to be working out of the box so I was wondering if there was good support or not. I did not select add all the nonfree stuff from the installer so | 16:13 |
| oerheks | add non-free, before questioning? | 16:13 |
| oerheks | i find only intel working OOTB | 16:14 |
| nuxnux | well why would I enable it if it not necessary | 16:14 |
| nuxnux | ok | 16:15 |
| nuxnux | the noveau driver is more than enough for me and I find the upgrade process is much better than with the nonfree | 16:16 |

| paul424 | hello, anyone on bionic 18 lts ? | 17:16 |
| paul424 | I need to check up which package provides the file egl.h | 17:16 |
| leftyfb | paul424: why do you need to know on bionic specifically? | 17:18 |
| paul424 | I do use snapcraft build system , which base is bionic beaver 18 ... | 17:18 |
| paul424 | and my game requires ogre which requires file egl.h ..... | 17:19 |
| paul424 | https://packages.ubuntu.com/ this doesn';t work as apt-file search | 17:20 |
| leftyfb | paul424: https://pastebin.ubuntu.com/p/NtXV3r6Ydg/ | 17:21 |
| leftyfb | paul424: if you're going to develop like this, I suggest installing Ubuntu 18.04 in a VM or container | 17:21 |
| paul424 | leftyfb, yeah some people suggested to me that also | 17:22 |
| paul424 | but I have only one script to ammend and then I am free to go | 17:22 |
| paul424 | hmm is already there in build-packages -- libgl1-mesa-dev, what I might be doing wrong ? :\ | 17:24 |
| paul424 | leftyfb, anyway many thanks for that query :D | 17:24 |

| tanran | Hi, I need some advices on removing orphaned packages. I'm looking in Synaptic at packages listed with status "Installed (auto removable)" and I see few things listed, however I'm not sure if they are safe to be removed or not because in that list I also see shim and some other system libraries. Is there a way to effectively understand what's it is used and what's safe to be deleted? | 18:10 |
| dud | gufw | 18:10 |
| PTNapivoski | tanran, apt autoremove | 18:12 |
| tanran | PTNapivoski: Yes, but that will do more or less what Synaptic does. It will list the same packages and ask me if I want to remove them - but I don't know if they are safe to be removed | 18:14 |
| tanran | PTNapivoski: hence my question: Is there a way to understand if a package is actually used by the system? | 18:17 |
| matsaman | apt autoremove ? | 18:19 |
| matsaman | deborphan -anp1? | 18:19 |
| sprnk[m] | pycurious: gufw - graphical user interface for ufw | 18:27 |
| matsaman | tanran: y'see those up there^ ? | 18:28 |
| tanran | matsaman: Will try that, thank you. However it is interesting that autoremove suggests also packages that might be in use | 18:29 |
| sarnold | sybariten: re ^R in bash, good good; quite a lot of people have no idea that it even exists, and I wanted to make sure the basics were covered :) | 18:32 |
| ioria | tanran, if you ask me, there is no notion of 'in use package'; maybe you mean Priority , like 'required', 'important', 'standard', etc .etc | 18:38 |
| tanran | ioria: that is what I was thinking; these tools just "guess" based on dependencies/dependants but it is still possible that one package listed is actually needed by the system | 18:44 |
| ioria | well, yes ... apt is good but it's not A.I. | 18:46 |
| tanran | ioria: as example, I can see some liblvmxxx in that autoremove list and per my understanding it is there because no other package depends on it and it was auto-installed, but that does not mean that I can safely remove it | 18:47 |
| matsaman | tanran: might be? | 18:47 |
| ioria | tanran, look, i can tell you this: if apt wants to remove that pkg, there is a reason. | 18:48 |
| sarnold | sometimes it's a *bad* reason :) | 18:49 |
| matsaman | well, if your package manager says you can remove it, and it's wrong, you just need to find a better package manager | 18:49 |
| sarnold | once upon a time we'd get a bug report every week or two from someone installing guitar hero 5 or whatever that was -- and whatever they did to their dependencies wound up trying to *uninstall* sudo | 18:50 |
| sarnold | thankfully I haven't seen that in a few years | 18:50 |
| tanran | matsaman: another way might be... trust the package manager and if something goes wrong re-install the packages :D | 18:50 |
| matsaman | sure | 18:51 |
| tanran | sarnold: well, yes - of course I check the history to see when a package was installed and its context, but there are some packages that was installed along with the whole system, long time ago - in that case I really don't know what happened. | 18:53 |
| cc0a3hr | Guys how can I install this https://mupdf.com/ Im %100 beginner and do not know how to do it. It is lightweight pdf viewer. | 18:56 |
| tanran | cc0a3hr: sure you can | 18:56 |
| sarnold | cc0a3hr: sudo apt install mupdf ? | 18:56 |
| tanran | cc0a3hr: If you've Synaptic installed, just search for it... it is there | 18:57 |
| rob0 | Do note that you probably have other PDF viewers installed. | 18:57 |
| cc0a3hr | Yes but how to do it hard way like "git" thing, I want to learn that. | 18:57 |
| sarnold | cc0a3hr: run sudo apt install build-essential xorg-dev then read http://git.ghostscript.com/?p=mupdf.git;a=blob;f=docs/building.html;h=8266bf211b0c819be631b25eb0dd06cfa005f78a;hb=HEAD | 19:00 |
| sarnold | cc0a3hr: that'll get you a lot of the way there :) | 19:00 |
| Khepra | sarnold: apt install mupdf. the user also asked in #debian, so this is all likely a waste of time, in at least one of the channels. | 19:05 |
| sarnold | Khepra: lol | 19:07 |
| sarnold | Khepra: sigh :) | 19:07 |
| zemzem | how come there are not really any programs that scan the entire disk or home folder for malware? | 19:08 |
| sarnold | zemzem: install clamav, knock yourself out :) | 19:09 |
| rob0 | maybe because anything could be malware? | 19:09 |
| rdr | is there a channel for jammy testing? i'm using the iso in gnome-boxes and it can't get past unpacking firefox | 19:09 |
| zemzem | Ive used clam. but it gets buggy when i try to scan the entire home folder. Not really sure why | 19:09 |
| sarnold | rdr: there's an #ubuntu-next -- perhaps not *testing*, but more focused on jammy | 19:09 |
| sarnold | zemzem: how are you calling it? | 19:10 |
| Khepra | zemzem: also note that clamav will likely find 0 of the linux malwares. | 19:11 |
| rob0 | Right, you can make a fork bomb in a few ASCII characters. | 19:11 |
| Khepra | I mean, attack vectors are different. clamav is the "windows virus" paradigm of fingerprint database scanning. | 19:12 |
| rob0 | Malware itself is mostly a Windows thing. | 19:12 |
| Khepra | can't disagree | 19:13 |
| sarnold | a lot of people have windows clients and linux fileservers / mail servers / webservers / etc | 19:13 |
| matsaman | zemzem: you're also getting basically 100% of your packages from the official package manager & repository, instead of from random installers you found online | 19:13 |
| Jim` | Is there still a Min ISO for when you don't want a GUI on old machines? | 19:17 |
| leftyfb | Jim`: ubuntu server | 19:18 |
| Jim` | leftyfb: Sounds like an idea | 19:18 |
| Jim` | leftyfb: says "multipass" now?? | 19:18 |
| leftyfb | you don't need multipass | 19:19 |
| Jim` | Right.. | 19:19 |
| Jim` | So I'm kind of confused where the min ISO is | 19:19 |
| leftyfb | https://ubuntu.com/download/server | 19:20 |
| leftyfb | click on Option 2 | 19:20 |
| Jim` | leftyfb: Even with XFCE Mint locks up so I'm giving up on the E2160 and new OS' | 19:21 |
| Jim` | E2160 and a 4670 | 19:21 |
| leftyfb | Jim`: Mint isn't supported hre | 19:21 |
| Jim` | leftyfb: Right, but Ubuntu was locking up too | 19:21 |
| Jim` | I'm thinking the old machine "just aint got what it takes" | 19:21 |
| matsaman | maybe it has a hardware fault | 19:21 |
| Jim` | matsaman: Could be, I haven't used it in 10 years besides file storage | 19:22 |
| Jim` | and I've moved twice | 19:22 |
| matsaman | 10 years, probably pretty energy inefficient by today's standards anyway | 19:22 |
| Jim` | so it might have been beat up | 19:22 |
| Jim` | matsaman: Someone just gave me this FX-8370 and AM3+ to update my AM3 , so it happens lol | 19:23 |
| Jim` | He wouldn't part with his DDR4 and Ryzen he just bought :( | 19:23 |
| Jim` | I suppose I could take the HDD out and add it to this machine | 19:25 |

| leftyfb | Jim`: let us know when and if you come across any issues with Ubuntu. We'll be happy to help | 19:27 |
| Jim` | leftyfb: It's downloading so we'll see soon | 19:27 |
| c_89 | to flash the motherboard BIOS (BIOS executable EXE / DOS) which version of freedos should I use ?: FreeDOS 1.3 LiveCD or FreeDOS 1.3 FullUSB? | 19:39 |
| sarnold | probably whichever is easier to use | 19:39 |
| rob0 | or what the manufacturer recommends | 19:41 |
| leftyfb | c_89: are you going to be booting to FreeDOS using a USB and flashing the BIOS or are you attempting this in a FreeDOS emulator? If the latter, I wouldn't trust flashing a BIOS from an emulated environment. If the former, this really has nothing to do with Ubuntu | 19:45 |
| pycurious | is there a way to define firewall rules in a yaml or json file and then feed it all to ufw at the same time? | 19:45 |
| leftyfb | pycurious: yes: https://docs.ansible.com/ansible/2.7/modules/ufw_module.html | 19:48 |
| c_89 | leftyfb I have to create a bootable pendrive with freedos, and then once started after loading the bios, type the name of the firmware from the command line which is in (EXE / DOS) format to be able to flash ... | 19:49 |
| c_89 | leftyfb inside FD13-FullUSB.zip there is: FD13FULL.img and FD13FULL.vmdk | 19:51 |
| c_89 | leftyfb inside FD13-LiveCD.zip there is: FD13BOOT.img and FD13LIVE.iso | 19:52 |
| leftyfb | c_89: you should reach out to the vendor for help with what to do with that | 19:53 |
| Jim` | leftyfb: Whatever ln-target is seems to be taking a good amount of time | 19:53 |
| leftyfb | c_89: if I had to guess, both of them should get written to a flash drive or cdrom respectively and should just do what you want, regardless of FreeDOS or the OS you are running(Ubuntu). But again, you need to reach out to your vendor for support with that | 19:54 |
| c_89 | leftyfb https://www.dell.com/support/kbdoc/it-it/000131486/update-the-dell-bios-in-a-linux-or-ubuntu-environment | 19:54 |
| leftyfb | c_89: great place to start. Good luck | 19:55 |
| sarnold | hmm if it's dell I'd expect fwupdmgr to work | 19:55 |
| sarnold | is it ancient or something? | 19:55 |
| Jim` | leftyfb: Alright it finished, but now says "wait for network to be configured.." | 19:56 |
| Jim` | after removing the install USB flash drive and reboot | 19:56 |
| leftyfb | Jim`: wait longer. You probably have a network interface that isn't connected | 19:57 |
| Jim` | leftyfb: yes, it has an internal and a Microsoft PCI | 19:57 |
| Jim` | leftyfb: two NICs | 19:57 |
| Jim` | only one is connected | 19:57 |
| Jim` | is that the issue | 19:57 |
| c_89 | leftyfb in this dell support article UNetbootin is used to download freedos directly, I would like to install it instead in the usb pendrive directly by downloading it from the official website | 19:58 |
| leftyfb | c_89: you know most Dell motherboards let you just use fwupdmgr to update the BIOS right? From within Ubuntu. No manual downloaded needed. Did you try that? | 19:59 |
| Jim` | leftyfb: It now has made the OpenSSH keys .. and isn't doing anything else. Is that all Server does? | 19:59 |
| Jim` | I need to SSH in to do anything else? | 19:59 |
| leftyfb | Jim`: hit enter and login | 19:59 |
| octav1a | * ssh keys as a service * | 20:00 |
| c_89 | leftyfb already tried fwupdmgr tells me that no update is available, so I have to install the firmware manually | 20:00 |
| Jim` | leftyfb: Seems to work, but just take about 2 extra mins cause of the other NIC I guess | 20:06 |
| leftyfb | Jim`: set them as optional in the netplan config | 20:06 |
| Jim` | leftyfb: wow, this install didn't even have df for df -h to check the disks | 20:07 |
| Jim` | must be VERY min | 20:07 |
| Jim` | leftyfb: how would I go about doing that ? | 20:13 |
| leftyfb | Jim`: https://netplan.io/examples/ | 20:14 |
| Jim` | eh.. I suppose I could just wait the extra 2 mins.. | 20:14 |
| leftyfb | Jim`: what's the purpose of this machine? | 20:15 |
| Jim` | Once I get these files back on there I imagine I wont be using the machine that often | 20:15 |
| Jim` | leftyfb: basically storage now | 20:15 |
| Jim` | backups | 20:15 |
| leftyfb | Jim`: over what protocol? | 20:15 |
| Jim` | SSH/SFTP | 20:15 |
| Jim` | That's why I figure I might as well just take the hard drive on out of it and use it that way.. | 20:16 |
| Jim` | And stop wasting power on another machine | 20:17 |
| Jim` | leftyfb: The other machine I put regular LTS on | 20:19 |
| Jim` | leftyfb: But it's a Celeron .. Sky Lake something.. I forgot off hand | 20:19 |
| Jim` | And doesn't struggle with new GUIs | 20:20 |
| pjs | I have this weird issue like 3-4x a day where my network access just stops working for 15-25 seconds. I can't even ping stuff (ie, my gateway) on the local lan. After 20ish seconds, everything is normal again. I thought maybe I was having issues with my ubiquiti AP but I've been testing with my mac the last few days and when my ubuntu machine can't access the lan, the mac has no issues. | 20:22 |
| pjs | Any ideas on what could cause this? I guess it started maybe 2ish months ago | 20:22 |

| jhutchins | pycurious: A brief summary/explanation is more likely to get people to follow a link. | 20:52 |

| devilboy | hi everyone, do I need a bootable usb stick within ubuntu to resize (create new partition) for windows 10 installation - dual boot with ubuntu ? | 21:08 |
| tomreyn | devilboy: to resize (active) partitions (and file systems) on your ubuntu disk, yes. to just add a new partition, no. | 21:13 |
| PRETEXTATO | HeLLo! I would like to change the Header message from tty. Like... From "Ubuntu 20.04.4 LTS localhost tty1" To "Ubuntu 20.04.4 LTS LOCALHOST TTY.001"? | 21:13 |
| devilboy | tomreyn, adding a new partition that means it will somehow cut or resize my active 1TB disk right? | 21:16 |
| Jeremy31 | yes | 21:16 |
| devilboy | Jeremy31, I'm thinking also your advise now for VM. Thinking | 21:18 |

| [jake] | is it safe to disable packagekit? The first thing i always do after bootup is to run my update script. It is really iritating as 9/10 times it stops because of packagekitd. | 21:56 |
| leftyfb | [jake]: you mean unattended-upgrades | 21:56 |
| [jake] | leftyfb: i already uninstalled them | 21:59 |
| [jake] | using apt | 22:00 |
| [jake] | and today got this error again: | 22:01 |
| [jake] | E: Could not get lock /var/lib/apt/lists/lock. It is held by process 1367 (packagekitd) | 22:01 |
| leftyfb | [jake]: have you rebooted since you removed unattended-upgrades? | 22:01 |
| [jake] | yea | 22:01 |
| alkisg | Run software-properties-gtk and select to never search for updates etc; or disable the apt-daily systemd unit and timer | 22:03 |
| alkisg | Or you can just configure it to run daily and pop up a dialog to ask you if you want to install them, instead of running your script :) | 22:04 |
| [jake] | no no I want my script its much faster, also the popup is _really_ annoying and reminds me a bit of an OS that i left a year ago :) | 22:08 |
| leftyfb | [jake]: how is your script faster? | 22:09 |
| [jake] | 'Automatically check for updates' was already set to 'Never' | 22:09 |
| [jake] | 1. thing it does it runs apt-get update an i see the packages i type Y for continuing and go on with my stuff | 22:11 |
| leftyfb | [jake]: huh? | 22:11 |
| [jake] | where the popup shows after 2 min sometimes updates a progeam that im using ie. firefox and i have to restart it | 22:12 |
| leftyfb | [jake]: the snap version of Firefox is the only application I know of that requires restarting it after it updates because the Mozilla developers made it that way. This applies to any method you use to update it | 22:13 |
| [jake] | hmm... it really happend to me one time and i use the deb package version, maybe because of extensions idk | 22:19 |
| [jake] | alkisg: i just disabled the apt-daily & apt-daily-upgrade timer & service | 22:28 |
| [jake] | so i guess thats everithing you mentioned | 22:29 |
| [jake] | but if that still doesn`t fix the issue will it be unsafe to disable the packagekit? | 22:32 |
