#Linux users, particularly #Debian & #Ubuntu: are you going to switch to #Mozilla's own #Firefox repository? Are you already using their snap or flatpak release? Or are you sticking to the binaries provided by your distro's maintainers?
Like seriously this is one of the things I hated the most in #Linux. If you wanna run #Windows programs in #Wine you essentially need to have both a 32-bit and 64-bit userland. So 32 and 64-bit libc and other essential libraries Wine needs... That's definitely gonna lead to #dependencyhell in the future once you have to do a major system upgrade :koishtare:
I'm glad we can do away with that! :alice_wine:
Oh and with this good news I guess it's not that far-fetched to imagine i386/i686 getting fully deprecated on all Linux #distros (including #Debian proper) huh? :sagume_think:
Thanks to great work by @weepingclown we have finally updated diaspora-installer package in #debian unstable and it is ready for bookworm-backports once it migrates to testing.
There were many challenges to get it working with ruby 3.1 in debian bookworm and sid, but he solved these issues patiently one after the other. This was the bug he fixed https://bugs.debian.org/cgi-bin/bugreport.cgi?bug=1006547
After updating my laptop at work from #Debian 11 to 12 some weeks ago, resulting in "kernl panic" and an install from scratch I'm now trying my luck with my private laptop.
What could be a more fun on the first day of the year :-)
@curtisysmith For old PCs (I've tried a 2007 netbook; 2010 PC; and 2015 PC), either #Bodhi Linux or #Lubuntu. (Ubuntu and Debian released during those years will work as well.)
Oh, all of those I mentioned above are DEB-based. There are also good options for RPM-based and Gentoo-based distros (ChromiumOS and ChromeOS are Gentoo-based).
I was at a somewhat similar point with #FreeBSD ports, too. They are rather similar. It's actually now about as easy for me to package for #BSD as it was for #Debian and I was able to reach a point with debian packaging where it was about as quick and easy for me as #RedHat rpms once were before that.
Playing with #Bhyve. I'm looking into deploying a #Debian#VM (for example) and a accessing it through a thin client. Any suggestion on how to better achieve this? So the idea is to have the VM OS running on my #FreeBSD machine and running it on a thin client. I'm wondering if #VNC would be the best approach.
The #ext4 data corruption issue[1] in #Linux#kernel v6.1.64 and v6.1.65 that was fixed with #LinuxKernel 6.1.66[2] apparently hit #Debian 12.3 bookworm point release[3]. Fixes are in the works, but preparing them will take a bit[4].
Folgendes Szenario: Große Musiksammlung, die nicht auf den internen Speicher des Smartphones passt. Gesucht wird eine Lösung, mit dem man die Musikdateien auf einem Server/entfernen Speicher ablegen und bei Bedarf streamen und/oder die Musik davor lokal herunterladen kann. Einfache, quelloffene Lösungen ohne viel Hickhack bevorzugt. Server ist Linux, Empfangsssystem wäre Android. Tipps oder Empfehlungen?
Anyone know of a decent diff3 resolution tool? I have a file that has diff3 markers showing how two files diverge from a common base, but the sections that are marked as diverging are LOOOOONG and it's very unwieldy to view in Vim. It would be awesome if there's some sort of tool (GUI or CLI, I don't care) that would show me just the part of the file that is common to both "branches" in one pane, then show me where the diverging parts are and what their contents are in two additional panes (both separate from the main one), preferably with the ability to diff the two "versions" of the diverging file sections with each other. My Google-fu is failing me while hunting for a tool like this.
I may have to write something like this myself if it doesn't exist yet.
Ah ! #OpenSSL 3.1.x est passé dans #Debian sid, et devrait arriver bientôt dans Trixie (aka Debian 13). Il me semblait que c'était la branche qui apportait le support partiel de #QUIC (en mode client uniquement), mais c'est dans la 3.2.x, qui est passée dans la branche expérimentale de Debian dimanche dernier
