Venkerhi people12:50
gnarfaceyo12:51
Venkerdo you work with preseed files? I'd want to customize some size partition parameters but it's not easy12:57
gnarfacei think i succeeded at it once before12:58
Venkermost of directives are clear, except that12:59
cosurgiplasma41: thanks, that was it :)13:00
gnarfaceVenker: did you read this? https://www.debian.org/releases/stable/amd64/apbs04.html.en#preseed-partman13:04
gnarfaceit mentions the full syntax for the expert recipes being in partman-auto-recipe.txt in the "debian-installer" pacakge (which should also be in devuan)13:06
gnarfacebut i think i may have just used debconf-get-selections to dump it from a freshly installed system, then just copied from that13:06
Venkergnarface: I saw that. My doubt is about understanding those values13:07
Venker#      boot-root ::                                            \13:07
Venker#              40 50 100 ext313:07
gnarfacei'm sure that partman-auto-recipe.txt explains it13:08
KatolaZVenker: look at partman-auto-recipe.txt13:09
KatolaZthere are several examples there13:10
KatolaZVenker: <limits>::=<minimal size>_<priority>_<maximal size>_<parted fs>13:11
Venkeryes, I found it now, thanks  ;-)13:11
KatolaZso your boot-root is at least 40 Megs and no more than 10013:11
VenkerI want to do an automated LVM setup13:12
KatolaZVenker: there are exampled for that as well13:13
KatolaZs/ed/es/13:14
VenkerAnd what if I want to fit value size? In a LVM setup, I don't want to get all the free space in the VG13:15
KatolaZVenker: please read through13:16
KatolaZin partman-auto-recipe13:17
KatolaZyou can specify the space to be allocated to each vg13:17
KatolaZand to each lv13:17
r3boothold on, I should have some d-i recipes for lvm on my laptop13:19
r3bootVenker: https://maze.io/paste/p/YtNAPwMiA4Blt6oW <-- there you go13:24
Venkerr3boot: thanks a lot!  :-D13:24
r3bootI probably also have an example using multiple disks (that was a *real* pita to figure out) on backups if you really, really need it13:25
r3bootbtw, since you're at it, you might want to have a look at https://github.com/jpoppe/seedBank13:26
r3bootyes, it's in maintenance mode, but it's a thin templating + booting system built around d-i (full disclosure, I also wrote some code on this back then :P)13:27
r3boot(even if you dont use it, it's imho a way to get an in-depth view of the whole d-i process, since we reverse engineered the hell out of it back then to get everything automated .. Debian wheezy/squeeze era btw)13:29
VenkerI also read about FAI installation platform, but it doesn't use official preseed files 'as is', but their own recipe13:30
r3bootyep, that was one of the thing why seedbank got written back in the day. It basically generates a complete di preseed file, including seeds for packages (think mysql password preseeding or so), generates a tftp/usb/iso bootable image, based on the latest upstream debian/ubuntu image with a correct pre-seed file inserted into the image13:32
r3bootallowing you to generate 'master images'13:32
r3bootwe used it to fully automatically roll out a complete website (marktplaats.nl), in approx 45 mins, from scratch, on either kvm/qemu, virtualbox, vmware or bare-iron (both single server chassis and blade chassis)13:33
r3bootpretty cool iig :)13:34
Venkergood one  :-D13:34
jordilado we have experimental packages in Devuan as Debian does ?13:35
gnarfacepkginfo.devuan.org this says we do13:40
fsmithredjordila, yes there's an experimental repo - it contains only devuan packages13:40
fsmithredand I think most of them are old versions13:41
jordilanice to know fsmithred13:42
fsmithreddeb http://deb.devuan.org/merged/ experimental main contrib non-free13:43

eyalrozHello Devuaners!21:34
eyalrozI have a question about some LLVM package weirdness.21:34
eyalrozthe liblldb-6.0.-dev package installs the directory /usr/lib/llvm-6.0/include/lldb/API21:35
eyalrozHowever, it places _no_ files under it...21:35
eyalrozwhile, apparently, it should. See: https://gitlab.com/cppit/jucipp/issues/406#note_17630611621:36
slvrmaybe some other package depends on that package and that folder.21:36
eyalrozAlso, if I install liblldb-5.0-dev, that same directory is full of files.21:36
eyalrozslvr: and?21:39
fsmithredapt-file lists a bunch of .h files for that directory (and others)21:43
fsmithredeyalroz, are you in ceres or beowulf?21:44
eyalrozOh, sorry, I should have said which version. It's ASCII.21:44
fsmithredI couldn't find that package in ascii21:44
eyalrozfsmithred: pool/DEBIAN/main/l/llvm-toolchain-6.0/liblldb-6.0-dev_6.0-1~bpo9+1_amd64.deb21:45
fsmithredI see liblldb-3.8 and 4.021:45
slvrI don't see it in debian stretch21:45
fsmithredoh, backports21:46
slvroh there it is21:46
eyalrozfsmithred: Ah, yeah, possible21:46
eyalrozI do have ascii-backports enabled21:46
fsmithredbpo in the version is the giveaway21:46
slvrI don't see /usr/lib/llvm-6.0/include/lldb/API in https://packages.debian.org/stretch-backports/amd64/liblldb-6.0-dev/filelist21:47
Jjp137it seems that /usr/lib/llvm-6.0/include/lldb/API is present in the Buster (and thus, beowulf) version of the package, as seen here: https://packages.debian.org/buster/amd64/liblldb-6.0-dev/filelist22:27
Jjp137thus, it's probably a bug in the ascii-backports version22:28
eyalroz@slvr: So, a bug in the backport then?23:35
eyalrozWhere should I file it?23:35
slvreyalroz: if I'm understanding things correctly, with the debian package maintainer.23:47
