FuraiWhat's up with output of `apt`? Why is it so spaced out and weird?06:48
FuraiI guess it's part of the 26.04 update. Why so much wasted space in terminal?06:49

mjt0khi here!  Does ubuntu have something similar to debian backports?08:36
mjt0khmm. https://archive.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/dists/resolute-backports/ -- is it real?08:38
lotuspsychje!backports08:39
ubottuIf new updated Ubuntu packages are built for an application, then they may go into Ubuntu Backports. See https://help.ubuntu.com/community/UbuntuBackports - See also !packaging08:39
mjt0kwell, at least https://archive.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/dists/resolute-backports/main/binary-amd64/ is empty. but ok08:42
mjt0kI don't use ubuntu myself, but users ask me to build some packages for ubuntu (eg samba, http://www.corpit.ru/mjt/packages/samba/ ) -- and I wonder if there's a way to use official ubuntu archives for that, instead of using some 3rd party repository (even the one which proven itself during the years)08:43
lotuspsychjemjt0k: backports, pinning, snaps, proposed could give you higher package versions then your current release08:49
mjt0ksure, as long as someone put a higher version to one of these mechanisms08:49
lotuspsychjemjt0k: but highly reccomended to stick you the repos of your ubuntu release08:50
mjt0kI'm telling users to ask samba maintainers in ubuntu to keep samba packages up to date in backports08:50
mjt0kbut will keep my repository too (not for resolute though)08:51
lotuspsychje!latest08:52
ubottuPackages in Ubuntu may not be the latest. Ubuntu aims for stability, so "latest" may not be a good idea. Post-release updates are only considered if they are fixes for security vulnerabilities, high impact bug fixes, or unintrusive bug fixes with substantial benefit. See also !backports, !sru, and !ppa.08:52
mjt0ksigh. this is not what I'm asking08:52
mjt0kbtw, this is not true generally08:53
lotuspsychjeyou just said to keep samba packages up to date?08:53
lotuspsychjewhats wrong with samba on your current ubuntu release?08:54
mjt0koften old bugs weren't fixed in ubuntu for years, even when fixed upstream long ago08:54
mjt0kI don't have any ubuntu release, as I said, I don't use ubuntu08:54
mjt0kinstead, people ask me to build samba and qemu for ubuntu08:55
mjt0kand to provide less buggy versions when ubuntu lacks them08:55
lotuspsychjeif your users encounter bugs, they should file a bug08:55
mjt0kand I'd rather point these users to official ubuntu side than to encourage them to keep using my repositories08:56
mjt0klotuspsychje: speaking of bugs: https://lore.kernel.org/qemu-devel/c8b5723a-a05e-41c2-9e1a-77719b598f6b@tls.msk.ru/08:57
lotuspsychjeyeah we dont encourage external repos08:57
mintvasco08:58
lotuspsychjemjt0k: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/qemu/+bugs?orderby=importance&start=009:00
lotuspsychjetell your users to file them there09:00
mjt0kwell, they usually know where the ubuntu bugtracker is :)09:01
lotuspsychjebad practice if you encounter issues, to not search the root issue and hump on newer versions09:02
mjt0kyes it is bad practice when you ask to maintain a stable series for you, and don't use it09:03
mjt0kand force your users to hit these bugs before fixing them09:04
mjt0kanyway, ubuntu has backports, and that's all what I wanted to know.  Thank you!09:04
lotuspsychjeokay good luck09:05

Jeremy31sem: I think it is still possible to boot an Ubuntu ISO on USB and test to see if your hardware works14:38
semWhat i'm looking for is a checklist for things to test14:40
semin the past I've booted it up, spend 10 minutes and thought, looks good! But then after upgrading I find something that doesn't work.14:41
lotuspsychjeyou cant predict how a kernel will react on a chipset14:41
lotuspsychjeunless you bare metal test it like Jeremy31 adviced14:41

lotuspsychjeinteresting leftyfb14:42
leftyfbI know because I used to use it to certify hardware when I worked for Canonical :)14:43
lotuspsychjeim gonna test that, tnx leftyfb14:45
leftyfbthere's a snap for it these days14:51
semthanks leftyfb -- kind of intimidating that the tutorial takes 3-4 hours, but perhaps that is necessary to ensure that the upgrade goes smoothly14:56

semlast time I tried moving up from 24.04 it had trouble with wayland15:05
cbreak26.04 works ok with my 408015:06
cbreak(on kde plasma)15:06
lotuspsychjeif thats your only concern sem i would go the way Jeremy31 adviced15:06
semlotuspsychje, that is what I'm planning already15:07
semi'm just looking for a checklist of things to check while I'm doing that15:07
semalso the reason I am thinking about upgrading is because the GNOME Boxes .deb didn't work out of the box (I forget the error) and while the snap version let me get further, it wouldn't let me install Manjaro in a VM.15:08
semSo I am thinking of updating to the next LTS release to see if the .deb of GNOME Boxes works better in it.15:08
lotuspsychjegnome boxes was buggy the last time i tested it15:09
semAlso there is a GNOME extension that builds OCR into the screenshot tool which doesn't work on 24.0415:09
semlotuspsychje, that is good to know :/ too bad because it looks user friendly compared to virtualbox15:09
lotuspsychjeusers have good experiences with virt-manager sem15:11
DynamiteDangreetings. I am having trouble compiling the linux kernel because the dwarf.h file is missing. I have tried to install using olf recepies but I am out of luck. Could someone please lead me to solving this problem? Thank you in advance15:12
semthanks for the recommendation :)15:12
lotuspsychjeDynamiteDan: are you contributing to ubuntu's kernel? or whats your purpose15:13
DynamiteDanI need to experiment with it indeed15:13
DynamiteDanbut I am not an contributer15:14
lotuspsychjetell us why you compiling your own DynamiteDan ?15:14
DynamiteDanI am compiling to make my own custom kernels15:14
DynamiteDanbut I sense this a delicate subject15:15
DynamiteDanI used ot compile linux kernels since version 1.0.015:15
DynamiteDanbut then I didn't do it for ages and now I am back to it15:15
DynamiteDanbut many things have changed15:16
ravagethis does not really sound like a very Ubuntu specific issue15:16
ravagebut i run my own kernel build and it works just fine15:17
lotuspsychjeubuntu has !mainline kernels too DynamiteDan15:18
DynamiteDanit is package thing that I have just now solved :)15:18
DynamiteDanthere was a chain of libs that was required and it is now compiling15:18
DynamiteDanthanks for your atention :)15:27
