| peterS | xixor: it is in the ssl-cert package now, and is named make-ssl-cert |
| Harzilein | hmm... |
| xixor | peterS: ah, great, thanks! |
| geoaxis | people , I am still stuck at the same point : I ran a fresh debootstrap and it fails saying : Failure trying to run: chroot /mnt/debinst mount -t proc proc /proc |
| Harzilein | any ideas on how to have / as a unionfs when the system is already running? i expect problems with /lib being unavailable for a moment... (want more space so i can upgrade kernel modules in place on a / that's quite small (100 mb) ) |
| _pHI_ | peterS: actually, there is a script in there that evaluates the APT::Unattended... variable via "eval $(apt-config shell Unattended ..)".... do you happen to know how i can set this variable permanently to "1" ? |
| peterS | kelsin: the new maintainer's guide linked from www.debian.org/devel/ somewhere is the best resource I can think of |
| kelsin | peterS: I will give that a look, thanks :) |
| peterS | _pHI_: no, I don't. you can run apt with -o APT::Unattended=1 if you want. |
| _pHI_ | ok thnx |
| peterS | _pHI_: or you could put something of that nature in /etc/apt/apt.conf |
| _pHI_ | peterS: yesss, apt.conf it is |

| MidgetKiller | hey guys, i'm looking for people that live on the east coast / south east coast of north america to help me test something. If thats you please PM me. |
| peterS | MidgetKiller: does it have anything to do with debian? |
| MidgetKiller | yes has to do with my debian server |
| peterS | maybe you could explain, then |
| MidgetKiller | i'm getting a problem where a download just suddently freezes... trying to figure out if its my server, or the route people are using to get to my server (their connection to it) personally i'm not having any issues, but I'm local to my server. |
| peterS | the problem is downloads _from_ your server, or _to_ your server? |
| MidgetKiller | from |
| bintut | is there a automatic tool in debian to add and scan a network printer? |

| Paddy_EIRE | how do I check to see what version of debian I am using? I think its Etch |
| Guerin | !what version |
| dpkg | Kernel: uname -r. Debian: cat /etc/debian_version. and: dpkg -l libc6 | tail -1. Package: dpkg -l _pkgname_. Miscellaneous: try --version on the command. check /etc/apt/sources.list; run apt-cache policy <packagename> |
| kelsin | peterS: I don't know how I missed the new maintainers guide, this is perfect, thank you |
| Paddy_EIRE | what version is 4.0 |
| peterS | it suddenly occurs to me that if lenny takes a really really long time to be released, Debian could be known for the Seven-Year Etch Paddy_EIRE: 4.0 is etch |
| Paddy_EIRE | nice one |
| MidgetKiller | *bu-dump CHING* |
