<AlmuHS>happy new year!!

<AlmuHS>yesterday, I was testing the Debian GNU/Hurd's latest updates in my Thinkpad R60e and T60. It seems that the freezing when the NIC is up has disappeared

<AlmuHS>in T60 I have a strange package broken problem, I think I will need to reinstall. Where can I get a newer iso image? (2019 iso is buggy)

<AlmuHS>youpi: Where can I get a newer iso image than 2019?

<jrtc27>20190705 is still the latest

<azeem>pfft, it's been over 21 hours in 2020 already

<youpi>AlmuHS: see my mail on debian-hurd

<youpi>and see the https://www.debian.org/ports/hurd/hurd-cd site

<youpi>that's where you'd always have the latest information

<AlmuHS>youpi: what email? in what date this mail was sent?

<youpi>To: debian-hurd@lists.debian.org

<youpi>Subject: Re: Recent debian hurd fixes

<youpi>Date: Wed, 1 Jan 2020 19:55:24 +0100

<AlmuHS>oh, thanks. I found new images in https://cdimage.debian.org/cdimage/ports/latest/hurd-i386/20200101/

<AlmuHS>I go to test It in VM and in my Thinkpad

<AlmuHS>in virtualbox It seems runs well. Network configuration doesn't freeze. When installation will finish, I will validate It

<azeem>is anybody working on sem_init() etc. support?

<youpi>sem_init already works :)

<youpi>it's sem_open which doesn't exist yet

<youpi>I don't think anybody has started anythong

<youpi>s/o/i

<azeem>ah ok, I just looked at the postgresql build log and it says: "FATAL: sem_init failed: Operation not supported"

<youpi>ideally it'd be along shared-memory mutexes

<youpi>ah, I guess it passes pshared=1

<youpi>so that's again the shared-memory issue

<azeem>if (sem_init(sem, 1, 1) < 0)

<youpi>normally the gnumach gsync support would allow to implement something

<AlmuHS>in latest image, there are little problems, but the system essentially runs well

<AlmuHS>in in the installer we say to add a mirror, this add the same debian-ports unreleased added by default

<AlmuHS>but there are another problem in repositories: https://pasteboard.co/IO0Dlvz.png

<youpi>unreleased doesn't work for deb-src yes

<AlmuHS>oops: https://pasteboard.co/IO0E960.png

<AlmuHS>and deb-src is debian, not debian-ports

<AlmuHS>It might be "deb-src http://deb.debian.org/debian unstable main"

<youpi>that'd have to be fixed in apt-setup

<AlmuHS>yes

<AlmuHS>and, there are an error which says "getty[]: bad syntax". what is this?

<youpi>see my latest commit on the debian hurd repo

<youpi>drop the --noclear from /etc/inittab

<AlmuHS>where is debian-hurd repo?

<youpi>debcheckout hurd

<AlmuHS>is this a command?

<youpi>yres

<AlmuHS>debcheckout: command not found :/

<youpi>apt-file search debcheckout

<AlmuHS>wait. updating apt-file cache...

<AlmuHS>devscripts is the package, I think

<AlmuHS>ok. clonning repository using "debcheckout hurd"

<AlmuHS>excuse me the delay, my internet connection is slow :(

<AlmuHS>ok: removing --noclear getty doesn't shows the error
