Maiklotuspsychje enigma9o7[m] when upgrading from xenial to bionic, Unity will be replaced by Gnome13:37
lotuspsychjers2009> upgrading from xenial to bionic would install GNOME, but also keep Unity7 iirc (since ubuntu-desktop added GNOME to its dependencies)13:38
Maiklotuspsychje: lol, missed that reply, i'm in a hurry at the moment13:54
rs2009lotuspsychje: yep14:48
tomreynravage: in case you'd like to read up more on http vs https for mirrors, i quickly found this: https://askubuntu.com/questions/146108/how-to-use-https-with-apt-get  https://unix.stackexchange.com/questions/90227/why-is-there-no-https-transport-for-debian-apt-tool15:41
tomreyni think debian defaults to https for a couple years now15:41
ravagei understand that it makes community servers more complicated because of the certificates15:42
enigma9o7[m]Hmmm I thought they didnt cuz it caused some issue with cacheing, and was unncessary cuz signature are checked locally anyway15:42
tomreynyes. but then, i just pointed out that a more community oriented distro than ubuntu has switched to https by default15:43
ravagemy mirror has optional SSL now. i dont think it has been in any official rotation ever anyway15:43
tomreynthe launchpad official mirror list does indicate https support, where available15:43
ravagelet me see if i can set that :)15:43
ravageset15:44
tomreynit's certainly challenging to design an architecture which can handle all the issues around community maintained HTTPS mirrors properly15:45
ravagefun fact: the "mirror location information" now shows https links by default too :)15:45
tomreynMaybe i was wrong about 'official position' then. i know that there are others with other POVs within Canonical.15:46
tomreyn(It's most likely the position of the team in Canonical which would have to handle such a transition and maintaining a new architecture, though.)15:48
ravagethat is possible :D15:48
tomreynI'm still just guessing, though.15:48
tomreynravage: see Spads latest comment in -mirrors, too.15:49
ravagesaw it. i have a personal benefit already. i can click links in firefox now without a warning that it does not support https :)15:51
tomreyn:)15:53
tomreyndepending on what hardware you have there, you *may* need to tweak the cipher suites you're supporting. but if you do tlsv1.3 then you should be good.15:53
ravagedebian 11 ;)15:54
tomreyni guess libssl and webserver version also play a role there15:55
ravageeverything works fine15:55
tomreyn:) good15:55
