| asg | MicroChip32: probably a security update. What does 'apt-cache policy <pkg>' say about installed vs candidate? |
| cain` | i want to install a module for proftpd but i cant find any description how |
| asg | cain`: install the proftpd-doc package. It will have information on what you need to do. |
| MicroChip32 | asg : Package Files: 100 /var/lib/dpkg/status release a=now 500 ftp://mirrors.kernel.org stable/main Packages release v=4.0r0,o=Debian,a=stable,l=Debian,c=main origin mirrors.kernel.org go figure *sigh* |
| asg | MicroChip32: use a paster (/msg dpkg paster) |
| MicroChip32 | did the paste come thru ? |
| asg | not all of it. |
| xitro | debhelper, is that a reason to kick someone out the channel because he didn't use pastebin? |
| asg | xitro: yes |
| gravity | xitro: debhelper is a bot |
| asg | xitro: he pasted more than 4 lines |
| xitro | ok sorry my mistake :-) |
| MicroChip32 | yea, most channels now days kick ya for more than 4 lines or somethng |
| asg | MicroChip32: for the reason why, try holding a coherent conversation in #flood on a busy day |
| MicroChip32 | ash, yea i used to be an op on another network, well aware :) |
| action | asg nods |
| asg | nods |
| MicroChip32 | i just hate pastebin *mutter* |
| tarzeau | is there a wings3d expert here? |
| MicroChip32 | ash http://pastebin.ca/451426 |
| asg | MicroChip32: what command did you use to generate that output? |
| MicroChip32 | "apt-cache policy" |
| asg | MicroChip32: run 'apt-cache policy <pkg>' where '<pkg>' is the one that keeps wanting to be upgraded MicroChip32: also, that output indicates that you don't have security sources which you most certainly want |
| action | liable blames ubuntu |

| ahlfors | For some reason, my texlive broke during a recent dist-upgrade. The bbold font seems to be the problem. Any idea what's happening? |
| asg | ahlfors: what debian version are you running? |
| hark | liable: so got the ati drivers working again? |
| ahlfors | unstable. Yes, I know it's unstable. |
| asg | ahlfors: /msg dpkg bts |
| MicroChip32 | bah. the machine in question, the one that was freakin when i tried to install a new package (libgd for perl) last night, wont even get that far now, aparently the process last night broke it worse. previous pastebin edited |
| ahlfors | I couldn't find anything relevant on bts for any of my installed texlive packages |
| MicroChip32 | the command shown is the same as originally used last night |
| liable | hark: no, i have a botched version of x working atm. downgraded xorg-core and libgl1-meas, but its all a bit too funky for me to ne bothered with tonight (too many beers) |
