<Eric4>
About "sed: can't read /etc/rc.local: no such file or directory" while booting debian 9 over ltsp. I know this is just a warning, but i didn't want my users to see any error message. Juste replace "sed '${/^exit 0$/d;}' -i /etc/rc.local" with "sed '${/^exit 0$/d;}' -i /etc/rc.local 2> /dev/null" in /usr/share/ltsp/init-ltsp.d/50-rcfiles

[ -f /etc/rc.local ] && sed ...
09:24
or if you prefer $? being 0:
09:24
[ ! -f /etc/rc.local ] || sed ...
09:25
<alkisg>
Eric4: if rc.local doesn't exist, that means that the RCFILE_xx lts.conf directives no longer work
09:25
So, silencing the warning just hides the real problem
09:26
File a bug report against ltsp, so that we fix it properly and RCFILE_xx works again in debian 9 or other systemd-based distributions
09:26

with systemd rc.local usually doesn't exist, but is run if you create it.
09:26
<alkisg>
I think we should make systemd units for ltsp at this point
09:26
<Eric4>
Ok i will fill a bug :-) my modest contribution to ltsp ;-)
09:27
<bcg>
alkisg: that's in my todo list. :-)
09:27
<alkisg>
And properly handle client "events"... rc* events (==booted), if-up events etc

<alkisg>
bcg: I think you should arrange some way for other users to test your ltsp commits, so that we quickly upgrade you to "ltsp-developer" status, and you start committing directly upstream...
09:31
About the packaging, I talked with vagrantc and he doesn't object if it's in a separate branch
09:33
<bcg>
I'll create test rpms for other users after my holiday.
09:33
<alkisg>
Cool. I might be able to test too...

<bcg>
I already have them, but I didn't want to create separate rhel-packaging repo from them.
09:34
<alkisg>
In a month or so I'll have committed a lot of changes in ltsp, and I'd like to test the results in different systemd-based distros as well

<bcg>
Having packaging files in separate branch is quite strange. How can you create a tarball release including those files?
09:48
<alkisg>
Suppose that someone wants to package ltsp for some rare distro. And he does produce a few packages and disappears after 1 month
09:48
Why should that appear in ltsp's git history?
09:48
Gathering the source from 2 git trees shouldn't be an issue...
09:49
Either with a script, or manually...
09:50
Also I think that the tarball traditionally doesn't include the packaging, that comes in a separate file
09:50
<bcg>
In that case separate repos is better than branches.
09:51
<alkisg>
Yes sorry I'm used to bazaar terminology, I meant repositories there
09:51
<bcg>
some tarballs include packaging data in packaging/ or doc/ subdirs. That is not directly usable in debian, but at least it includes all needed files.
09:52
<alkisg>
I think the major point is to have most code upstream and not in if-up scripts or systemd units
09:53
That way, we can update the code in a single commit when we change something
09:53
If the packaging doesn't contain much code, I don't care much about its "history" or keeping it to the same tree...
09:54
appstream data and systemd units can also go upstream, probably
09:54
since they'll be common to many distros
09:55
<bcg>
Packaging contains curretly missing "make install" workflow.
09:55
When you add systemd service files "make install" changes.
09:56
<alkisg>
make install is a separate thing from packaging, it doesn't respect the package management...
09:56cyberorg has left IRC (cyberorg!~cyberorg@opensuse/member/Cyberorg, Ping timeout: 240 seconds)
09:57
<bcg>
running "make install DESTDIR=..." is usually part of rhel-packaging.
09:58
<alkisg>
For projects using shell or python?
09:58
<bcg>
all
09:58
c, python, shell, ...
09:58
<alkisg>
So we're supposed to have a makefile that would arrange what to put and where?
09:59
<bcg>
yes.
09:59
<alkisg>
And where would it put if-up scripts or systemd units?
10:00
or man pages, or application .desktop files etc?
10:00
<bcg>
For that you usually have configure.
10:01
Or "make install" parameters.
10:01
and/or
10:01
or packaging/YOUR_DISTRO/config file to be included in "make install"
10:02
<alkisg>
For example, debian has debian/script.if-up
10:02
or debian/project.manpages
10:03
If we do that from `make install` instead, then we bypass debhelper
10:03
I'm not sure that that would help...
10:04
E.g. for debian/project.gconf-defaults, we'd have to manually put postinst calls to update gconf database
10:04
So we'd end up with more code, and we'd have to test it on each new gconf etc version...
10:07
I think I'd feel best if: code that is contained in debhelper, isn't duplicated in ltsp-upstream
10:12
<bcg>
Urgh... I rather have separate git repositories (rhel-packaging? packaging-rhel? ltsp-rhel-packaging?) than branches in ltsp repo for packaging. So let's continue old way with repos?

10:12
<alkisg>
branches in ltsp repo => noone proposed that
10:12
It's just that branch in bzr is the same as repository in git
10:13
So I was proposing "different git repositories"
10:13
They can just live under ltsp-upstream, so that new maintainers can keep up where the old maintainers left...
10:15markit has joined IRC (markit!~marco@host179-38-static.243-95-b.business.telecomitalia.it)
10:15
<alkisg>
Although I suppose they can be owned by the packagers instead of ltsp-upstream.... and the new maintainer can just fork the old one and mark it as abandoned...
10:16
ltsp-rhel-packaging sounds fine
10:16
We have ltsp-debian-packaging, ldm-debian-packaging etc

10:31GodFather has joined IRC (GodFather!~rcc@96-92-43-9-static.hfc.comcastbusiness.net)
10:39
<bcg>
oh, then we all agree: different git repositories under ltsp-upstream.
10:39
ltsp-rhel-packaging it is then.
10:40
Sorry for delay. I'm also packaging [eh] my luggages. Leaving tomorrow for Japan for two weeks.
10:42
Where is ltsp-debian-packaging btw? not in https://code.launchpad.net/ltsp.
10:47
<alkisg>
vagrantc keeps it in https://anonscm.debian.org/cgit/collab-maint/ltsp.git/
10:47
He's thinking of putting it to launchpad instead
10:47
I keep a personal copy of it in https://code.launchpad.net/~alkisg/+git/ltsp-debian
10:48
So that I can automatically build the latest ltsp...
10:49
<bcg>
So it's basically a fork of ltsp-upstream with added /debian dir...
10:50
for rhel I plan to include only README and ltsp.spec files. README tells you how to create tarball from upstream repo with specific commit id.
10:51
then you do "rpmbuild -ba ltsp.spec" and that's it.
10:51
maybe that readme will be included to spec file as comments.
10:54
That will match Fedora's fedpkg-workflow too.

16:16
<bcg>
systemd units are common and belong to ltsp repo, right?
16:17
<alkisg>
Sure; but isn't there anything rhel specific there?
16:17
<bcg>
warren togami has put all config etc files to ltsp repo.
16:18
<alkisg>
There's altlinux unmaintained code there as well :)
16:18
<bcg>
and fedora and k12linux
16:18
<alkisg>
Yes; it's hard for others to remove what they don't have a clue about
16:19
It's one reason to keep the packaging separate...
16:19
<bcg>
rhel7 and fedora 25/26 are quite close so they could be merged.
16:19
<alkisg>
I don't mind either way; but I do see vagrantc's point
16:22
<bcg>
ltsp's server/Redhat/configs/ dir has most rhel-specific parts.
16:22
most made by warren, i've just deleted old ones and updated some.
16:26
