      and ANTIX from New Zealand

      OMG, welcome to my playlist!!! Thank you Anticapitalista!

      Depending on circumstances, there are a few rather different ones (Apparently I cannot embed more than one):

      – recently discovered: BlackCoffee, kinda melodic/rhythmic techno, one example, slightly over one hour:

      – Gramatik – Just Jammin’ (1h):

      – Sometime it needs to be SPEEDY, then some Electro Swing is required – one short example, Alice Francis – Shoot Him Down (Milk And Sugar Radio Version):

        What is your experience with AIDE (or similar security enhancements) to keep an eye out for malware, etc.?
        (I’m currently using Antix17, and running Firefox and Thunderbird in Firejail with apparmor.)

          As I thought.
          Apparently you need a newer kernel 5.3 or 5.4 and a new graphics set.
          ie new Ryzen doesn’t work on buster.

          Philosophers have interpreted the world in many ways; the point is to change it.

          antiX with runit - leaner and meaner.

            The most recent “sets off spamfilter alarm bells” quirk I discovered:

            something / otherthing
            and / or

            apparently, if an edited post contains a substring matching “word-forwardslash-word”
            it will be rejected (held for moderation?) by the WordFence spamfilter mechanism.

              I’m not being provocative in this post, just calling a spade a spade.

              Your topic-starting post represents an unfounded claim (due to PEBKAC?) that “something is awry”.
              I demonstrated that synaptic currently is, in fact, installable in sid (and explained the steps which led to success).

              The “more to the story” aspect is that your topic-starting post here continues a trend of bemoaning inexplicable, often non-reproducable, problems… then backpedalling and fingerpointing. Sure, it’s sid (unstable) ~~ possibly yesterday when you tried, or even an hour ago, it may not have been installable at that time. You (we, you and I, and future readers) might oughta shrug it off as just another speedbump along the road of tracking sid.

              Instead, you are bent on (ALLCAPS) insisting that an ongoing “uninstallable” problem exists. Quoting a snippet of my reply in order to lambast my choice of wording (or “tone”, or “attitude”) does not bring you closer to solving your “uninstallable” puzzle. Claiming that a (a wrong tool for the job) given tool is an “antiquity” does not bring you closer to solving your “uninstallable” puzzle.

              In another recent exchange, you mentioned “exclusively never provided a single hint for me”.
              From my perspective, that remark is patently untrue and (lather, rinse, repeat?) here, even after I have outright explained the steps which led to success… you don’t understand? Yet, you would insist (have previously proclaimed) that you are a “careful tester” and “been doing this for years” and, and WHAT ?

              I sincerely wish for your success in wrangling sid. I recognize that we each differ, in terms of our relative adeptness across various skillsets. Because I realize that my package management success (adeptness, I would not claim “expertise”) necessitates continually “diving into the docs”, I cannot fathom (nor excuse, nor empathisze with) you apparent unwillingness, across years, to refer to the available manpages and learn-n-understand the plentiful set of provided tools.

                First of all…
                apt search is, demonstrably, not “a joke” ~~ it is just often usually not the best tool for an end-user to choose when attempting to perform the immediate task at hand. It is a tiny, feature-lean, utility which is frequently utilized (called) from within scripted operations.
                apropos apt
                apropos dpkg
                ^— following your extended periods of immersion in obarun et al, each time you revisit debianland it will be helpful for you to review the available tools.

                Second, FYI, wondering “What new breakage has the Debian Guh-nome Team wrought THIS week?“, I tested what you have described… but I found no breakage.

                pristine antiX19Full iso, in virtualbox:
                apt update && apt dist-upgrade
                then edited the source.list.d/*.list files, removing all references to repos other than: antix “for use with sid” and debian “unstable”

                then apt update && apt upgrade
                After fussing with some “btrfs file is owned by blahblah” error, I purged the btrfs-whatever package
                then apt dist-upgrade apt upgrade
                and steppy-stepped through a few minor wrinkles (but none related to synaptic).
                Above, I scratched out “dist-upgrade” b/c I apparently hadn’t done that yet ~~ at the time I grabbed the screenshot, sshfs package still hadn’t been upgraded.

                  Ah, the joys of attempting to use “PPAs”, eh?

                  At the videolan site, they didn’t even offer me a download.
                  The page just reports “go see debian, they follow the 3.0.x branch”

                  .

                  The version from debian testing/sid, compared to the the buster (stable), does provide a few bugfixes
                  https://metadata.ftp-master.debian.org/changelogs//main/v/vlc/vlc_3.0.8-3_changelog
                  If you’re hoping to run any version newer than that… “no soup for you” according to videolan page.

                  You might consider downloading the source package from debian sid and attempt to compile it on your machine

                    (wow, the spamfilter is even interfering with THIS post.
                    I’m stumped. Which i did I neglet to dot this time?!?)

                    Whatever I posted to pastebin, that’s a static page ~~ AFAIK, I can’t go back and revise the content at that URL.
                    Since then, I have not uploaded any later copies of the script.
                    In post #30585, I explained what you can expect to find in a forthcoming WIP version (hoping to hear feedback on which details in the header docs seem unclear, or seem like some of the design details seem like anti-features). Although I regret the ensuing confusion, I reckon that by withholding each of the rapid-succession WIP versions, I’m sparing both of us quite a bit of frustration. “Wait, innit supposed to…?” (yeah, that detail is still buggy) or (no, behaving as detailed in the docs, whoops I mean the belatedly updated docs…)

                    At the moment, I’m wrestling with how to deal with the beginswith//endswith matching.
                    I don’t want you (or me) end-user to care about globbing and bash regex matching,
                    so I have the script prepending * to user-supplied “endswith” matchstrings… but it needs to read the asterisk as a literal character when reloading the items list… and then needs to (or would, if I don’t just cave and scratch this feature) apply globbing(?) when matching the string.

                    .

                    .

                    None of the remaining WIP wrinkles are relavent to your apparent intended “–onlyknown” usage, but prior to using the script you will need to edit a few lines to change “geany $notename” to “zim n $notename”. I have mentioned this detail within the current version of the script’s header… but I’ll need to carefully proofread the (now 150+ lines) inline “docs” to check for other discrepancies before uploading a revised “version” of the script. When I upload another smoketesting version, I’ll send a PM or make a followup post.

                          Calibre depends on Calibre-bin which requires two dependencies which are apparently not in the repos: qtbase-abi-5-7-1 and sip-api-11.3

                          It shouldn’t matter, they are virtual packages provided by other packages
                          qtbase-abi-5-7-1
                          sip-api-11.3
                          But nevertheless I can darkly remember having had the same problem once with synaptic.
                          Whereas a sudo apt-get install worked without problems, the output might also give you hints.
                          There is also a stretch-backports version of calibre available.
                          debian calibre packages
                          Anyway, calibre is installed on my antiX17 systems in the stretch version . You shouldn’t have a problem with that.
                          Especially not on a newly installed system.

                            regarding the broken Calibre package, in the Stretch repos… Calibre depends on Calibre-bin which requires two dependencies which are apparently not in the repos: qtbase-abi-5-7-1 and sip-api-11.3

                            Hmm, calibre installation via packageinstaller “works when I test” yet fails on your system.
                            At this point, I’m at a loss to understand why.
                            Let’s wait for others to answer.

                              Skidoo,
                              Here is what came up, following attempted install of Calibre, via packageinstaller.
                              (NOTE: This was attempted twice: first, on Antix-17 LiveUSB, with no persistence setup… second, on installed Antix-17 system. Results were the same, either way.)

                              $ packageinstaller
                              QStandardPaths: XDG_RUNTIME_DIR not set, defaulting to ‘/tmp/runtime-root’
                              running cmd: “arch”
                              running cmd: “cat /etc/debian_version | cut -f1 -d’.'”
                              running cmd: “dpkg -l packageinstaller| awk ‘NR==6 {print $3}'”
                              running cmd: “dpkg –get-selections | grep -v deinstall | cut -f1”
                              running cmd: “apt-get update”
                              running cmd: “x-terminal-emulator -T ‘Installing packages…’ -e apt-get install –reinstall calibre ”
                              running cmd: “\n”
                              running cmd: “dpkg –get-selections | grep -v deinstall | cut -f1”
                              could not remove listapps file
                              tree cleared
                              cleanup code
                              terminate cmd called
                              terminating parent process: 6402
                              kill cmd called
                              killing parent process: 6402
                              sh: 1: r: not found
                              removing lock
                              QProcess: Destroyed while process (“/bin/bash”) is still running.

                              Regarding what components of systemd might have been active…
                              Here is what came up (running a different Antix-17 LiveUSB, with backup of system on which I could not install apparmor). I don’t know the significance of most of these lines. But there are quite a few more than on your system.
                              [However, in my Antix17 system, where I did install apparmor, there are even more lines (mostly related to apparmor).]

                              $ locate systemd
                              /etc/systemd
                              /etc/apt/preferences.d/00systemd

                                First – I use Space Fluxbox (Radiant Medium if it matters) as preferred desktop…
                                What I experience, particularly on some laptops, is that upon boot when desktop shows up, often the two icons – Dele Manager and antiX FAQ do not show up. This is not a problem because I can always go to ‘Other Desktops’ and click on ‘Space Fluxbox’ and they reappear. It is not that plain Flux box is initially booted because Conky shows ‘Space Fluxbox’ whether icons are showing or not.
                                Again, this erratic behavior is not a problem for me although it seems to point to some timing issues.
                                However my observation is that when these two icons fail to show up the initial memory used (reported by Conky) is ~140M while in cases when they do show up the initial memory used is ~172M. My conjecture is that sometimes SpaceFM is not loaded, less memory used and sometimes is – more memory used.

                                My question is: Where this can be controlled?
                                Namely, it is not always that File Manager is needed during session (particularly in Live case), so it is not necessary to pre-load until needed. When needed it is accomplished by selecting ‘File Manager’ from the menu.
                                This apparent erratic of showing icons point to reducing memory used if it can be set on permanent basis to not show.
                                I remember vaguely there is setting somewhere whether to show these icons or not to show but it seems I am no lonhger able to find it…
                                Any idea would be appreciated…

                                  Skidoo,
                                  I still have the LiveUSB of the broken system (made as a backup before attempting to fix things).
                                  I ran the command you suggested (with result as expected, as shown below).
                                  Are there other systemd related things to look for? (Of course, the log, related to the attempted system upgrade from Stretch to Buster, has been overwritten.)

                                  Package: *systemd*
                                  Pin: origin “”
                                  Pin-Priority: -1

                                  Also, regarding the broken Calibre package, in the Stretch repos… Calibre depends on Calibre-bin which requires two dependencies which are apparently not in the repos: qtbase-abi-5-7-1 and sip-api-11.3
                                  But, as previously stated, I can get along without Calibre.
