eepromis ubuntu archive dns (or general connectivity) not working for anyone else right now?02:00
eepromhmm... dns is fine, so maybe there is an outage of some kind?02:00
eeprompackages take a minute or two to fetch02:01
guiverci noticed a slow download of upgrades earlier this morning (~4 hrs ago) but it was fine a few mins later.. temporary issues can occur on occasion.02:05

eepromyeah.. : / i just chose another mirror from here for the time being: https://launchpad.net/ubuntu/+archivemirrors02:12
eepromi wonder if the other mirror i chose has issues too: " libpython3.10 : Depends: libpython3.10-stdlib (= 3.10.4-3) but 3.10.6-1~22.04.2 is to be installed"02:13
eepromcould be that not all packages synced successfully recently02:13
guiverci noted this yesterday (my local time) https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/linux-meta/+bug/2025192 which was kernel related & impacting mirrors.. maybe related (mirror sync being issue?) but sorry I don't know...02:17
-ubottu:#ubuntu- Launchpad bug 2025192 in linux-meta (Ubuntu) "broken installation while mirror syncing new kernel packages" [Undecided, Confirmed]02:17
eepromoh, i think the issue with the other server was that i forgot to add an entry for jammy-updates, so apt was refusing to downgrade packages automatically02:17
guiverc:)   as that's easy to fix02:17

weedmicsoftware manager is not displaying search results - any ideas?  i thought it was because I had forgot to install biuld-essential, but I have done that now.06:44
osseI want to install Docker. There is a packager called docker but it seems to be a dummy. Perhaps I should use their apt repo. But then what is the point of this package?06:49
osseIt only contains a copyright file and a changelog which is actually a symlink to the wmdocker's changelong06:49
osseOh... the wmdocker package has nothing to do with docker :p06:50
osseand the docker package exists as a "synonym" I guess06:51
weedmicosse: install "docker" from muon (the transistional package).  it contains nothing, but allows you to run them.  then you can make or just get a docker container to see if it works.  I used to have one that played a simple game, but forgot what it was.06:52

weedmichow do I force xapian to create a new index - i believe that is why the software manager is not working07:01
weedmicfound "sudo update-apt-xapian-index -f", says "no module named 'debian" - ?  all I want to do is istall 3 dependecies07:04
squarecircleI'm a bit lost: Why can't my VM reach the public interface/IP of its Host machine? I sure had this probem with Virtualbox and now with KVM. I knew it did not work, but I never knew why. Is it a given? Can I do something about?07:18
weedmicsquarecircle: it depends entirely on what network you choice on the host and how you setup the network inside the vm (especially if it is windows).  for example, host is bridged (or not), inside vm you need to tell it to use dhcp or give it a manual number.07:28
weedmici need to provide libc.so.6 - anyone know what package contains that?  I think it migt be "libc6-dev", but unlike opensuse, I cannot seem to see inside to see what it provides.07:30
ravagedpkg -S libc.so.607:33
weedmicwill try - i think it might be in glibc-doc and or libc6-pic07:33
weedmicyes, it lists -ty ra07:34
squarecircleweedmic: its an internal network, natted via HOST, static IPs07:34
weedmicravage:07:34
weedmicwhat is the host running vmware or virtualbox - and did you pick "bridged" or "NAT"?07:34
squarecircleweedmic: qemu/kvm, NAT07:36
weedmicand your goal is 1) just to get the vm to have internet, 2)to setup a nat network that can reach the internet?07:38
squarecircleweedmic: no, my goal is to let the VM reach the HOST on its public interface07:39
weedmicravage: i did "dpkg -S libc.so.6" - i then did "sudo apt install /lib/x86_64-linux-gnu/libc.so.6 - returns unsupported file ... given on commandline - what did I do wrong07:41
ravagethe package is libc607:42
weedmicpls devine term "public interface" squarecircle - if you just want internet, swithc host to bridged and set vm to dhcp ip4.  if you really want to setup a NAT network, it isn't that complicated, but, that really isn't ubuntu related, but you are basically setting up a network and then attaching things (like vms) to it.  most people do not realy want that.07:43
weedmicbut I did not know the term, so pls define it.07:43
weedmicravage: nvm - i read the manual -S means already installed - so there is something wrong with the script for pe-bear as  itisn't finding it, and yet it is ther07:49

weedmicwhe I try to start ./PE-bear (a pe editor), it reports that 3 files cannot be found yet are required.  for example libc.so.6, libQt5Core.so.5, and libstdc++.so.6 - all are installed on the system.  Do I need to add these locations to my path (which seems odd to me), create a symbolic link (in which case how do I find out where pe-bear wants them to be)? - something else?08:02
weedmicmight be nvm - checking someting else08:04

BliepoHello everybody. I have my /boot parition (root is on a ZFS array) on a NVME SSD that is on the point of failing. To make matters more complicated, I only have one NVME slot. Can I use grub-mkrescue to somehow boot from a USB drive. And when that has worked, how do I create a new /boot parition?15:32
BliepoOr alternatively, if there is some way of cloning the current boot parition to another system (I have a system with a spare NVME slot), that´s also fine with me.15:34
tekisui_you can use [startup disk creator] to make an usb with ubuntu system15:34
BliepoHmmm15:36
BliepoAnd then chroot into the existing system?15:36
tekisui_it may start up ubuntu that way from the usb15:39
tekisui_you should be able to acces the current system that way15:40
BliepoYeah, that should work15:40
BliepoStill need to come up with some way of recreating the /boot parition from there though15:40
tekisui_this might help: https://superuser.com/questions/614257/how-do-i-recreate-a-wiped-boot-filesystem-in-ubuntu15:42
tekisui_ah this is ten years old, i dunno15:43

BliepoAlright, I think I got it15:49
BliepoMake a bootable USB. Then combine instructions from https://superuser.com/questions/614257/how-do-i-recreate-a-wiped-boot-filesystem-in-ubuntu and https://fekir.info/post/restore-efi-partition-with-grub/15:49
