[ONLINE] BunsenLabs Debian Repository

twoion · 2015-07-27 17:45:52

(This will go into a sticky post soon).

From today onward, our APT repository is being served by our nice and new distro server, which is generously sponsored by the NetCup hosting company from Karlsruhe, Germany. Many thanks for the support.

--

The DNS entry for pkg.2ion.eu has been switched and should propagate throughout the internet within the next day or so, or you will be using it when you flush your DNS cache the next time -- so users of the repo have to do nothing.

I have also uploaded the (unbeknownst to me missing) bunsen-faenza-icon-theme and bunsen-docs packages.

On a special note: We have also included the ttf-ubuntu-font-family package from the Ubuntu repository (version 0.80-0ubuntu6 as 0.80-0ubuntu6.1) which is as of now missing in Debian due to Debian license and/or motiviation issues (see the bug report for details). We are going to use the Ubuntu Mono font on our future web page (besides it being an excellent font), so we decided to ship it.

Create the post - and I'll be glad to super-glue it in place!

Could we just sticky this thread? Then I could use the OP. The topic is essential to BunsenLabs usage and development in any case.

Sector11 · 2015-07-27 18:59:39

yup - done

twoion · 2015-07-27 21:15:04

mpv-bash-completion has been added to the repo. This package provides tab-completion for the 'mpv' video player, on the command line. The package version is 0.6.2 and matches the version of mpv available in Jessie.

mpv is currently featured on the alpha2 live ISOs.

Important notice

We have moved to our official bunsenlabs.org domain and thus the repository's URL has changed. From now on, please use the following APT configuration:

deb http://pkg.bunsenlabs.org/debian bunsen-hydrogen/

You will continue to be able to reach the repository via the old domain pkg.2ion.eu for the time being.

Question for JohnRaff:

Will the netinstall script switch to using the bunsenlabs.org repository and stop building a local one?

Red.

johnraff · 2015-08-12 03:33:07

Hi Red, yes that's now high on my TODO list.
The GitHub build A GitHub upgrade will be offered as an option I think. Most people won't need it.

Important Announcement

In order to make future maintenance easier, the repository layout has been changed. From now on, the following APT sources.list entry should be used:

deb http://pkg.bunsenlabs.org/debian bunsen-hydrogen main

Users of the repos are encouraged to update their APT configurations.

The old repository URLs will continue to work, but the packages won't be updated anymore. Please use the new repo location instead.

Future ISO releases will use the new repository by default.

The OP and http://pkg.bunsenlabs.org have been updated to reflect this change.

Thanks.

This is now done, using the new sources.list line. The netinstall should run a bit faster now.

Announcement

You can now use deb-src lines in your APT configuration to get the source for packages in our repositories (repo configs: bunsen-hydrogen, jessie-backports). Sources can be fetched using apt-get source. Note that no bunsen-* packages have sources available yet; they will be uploaded during the next batch of rebuilds.

The following packages are new:

dark-teal-theme and vertex-icons-tweak install the DarkTeal GTK+ theme along with the modified vertex icon theme.

The improved obmenu package by corenominal has been added.

In the backports repo, you find:

hhh wrote:

xfce4-power-manager is backported from testing and fixes the notification applet issue (you can then remove fdpowermon).
xfce4-volumed is backported from Ubuntu Trusty (LTS) and improves xfce4-volumed's support for pulseaudio. (This fixes the issue I've reported with the keyboard mute button unmuting alsa but not pavucontrol's output channel.)

It's not clear yet if both or only one of these two packages (power-daemon) gets included into the default Hydrogen install, but perhaps you can solve issues you are already having by installing them.

Yup, that got upgraded today ... had to manually change (Search: "execute>" Replace: "command>") my menu.xml back to <command>something</command> from <execute>something</execute>

Are dark-teal-theme and vertex-icons-tweak (I have them now) installed by default now?

twoion · 2015-08-16 17:01:13

^ No I think.

hhh · 2015-08-16 18:58:04

@2ion, I guess you missed my warning about the xfce4-volumed backport. After installing it I reverted to Alsa and my volume/mute keys no longer worked. They worked again after re-installing pulseaudio.

re: Vertex icons, adding "faenza-dark-bunsen" to the Inherets line in index.theme improves things...

Inherits=Faenza-Dark-Bunsen,Moka,gnome,hicolor

^
Should I add a postinst script which will re-install the pulseaudio package if it is already installed? This depends on whether your experience is reproducible or not...

^
I believe that'd be "Faenza-Dark-Bunsen" as specified in the index.theme of bunsen-faenza-icon-theme. Or am I wrong?

hhh · 2015-08-23 19:11:28

Sorry I missed your post, twoion. I fixed the theme name.

Not sure about a script, we need more testing as you said. Hopefully this person's experience will give us more info...

Package addition: dfc 3.0.5

dfc has been added to BL's jessie-backports repository, backported from unstable.

dfc displays file system space usage using graphs and colors. In some ways, it is a modernized version of df as it is able to use colors, draw graphs and export its output to different formats such as CSV or HTML.

The package was previously included in wheezy but is not available in jessie.

twoion · 2015-08-27 19:38:40

Package addition: forecast 0.5.0

forecast (homepage) has been added to the BL repo for all architectures.

…because I can.

KrunchTime · 2015-09-12 08:55:27

I was just reading over the instructions on setting up the bunsen-jessie-backports list. I think there could be a potential issue. What if a user (like me), is already using the Debian Backports repo? Wouldn't...

sudo apt-get -t jessie-backports install ${PACKAGE_NAME}

confuse apt?

ghorvath · 2015-09-12 09:19:53

I use both jessie-backports and the bunsen-jessie-backports sources, and apt has not gave me error messages so far. Of course, I only used it to install the tint2 icon to xfce4-power-manager, so only installed 3 packages that exist only in the bunsen-backports repo and not in the jessie-backports.

Doesn't matter; packages belonging to a single distro identifier ("jessie-backports") are still differentiated by origin (used in APT pinning, for example) and will be handled following standard APT pin priority rules.

That being said, the purpose of our jessie-backports is compensating for a lack of official backports; should a package in there appear in the official backports repo, we would remove ours anyway.

twoion · 2015-09-12 12:35:44

SSL now available

We now have SSL on our repository site (also the main website, but that's not the point). After having made sure that the apt-transport-https package is installed (by default included in the RC1 live ISOs!), you can now use the "https://" prefix for our package sources, like so:

deb https://pkg.bunsenlabs.org/debian bunsen-hydrogen main
deb-src https://pkg.bunsenlabs.org/debian bunsen-hydrogen main
deb https://pkg.bunsenlabs.org/debian jessie-backports main
deb-src https://pkg.bunsenlabs.org/debian jessie-backports main

KrunchTime · 2015-09-12 21:43:40

@twoion: Thank you for the clarification about the BL jessie-backports repo. Thank you also for the update about SSL availability.

Could we perhaps organize pinning and/or version numbering so that the same package appearing in the official backports would result in that getting priority, and being automatically installed with the next upgrade?

Announcement: Legacy repo goes offline

The legacy APT respository which was the default until the now superseeded alpha2 release at pkg.2ion.eu, access to which had been preserved until now will be taken offline today. If you have an old install of BL or earlier, please switch to our new repository. Instructions are located at https://pkg.bunsenlabs.org.

APT will fail with a HTTP status of 410: Gone.
