What does sudo apt-update && sudo apt install python-libxml2 say?

Let's pull tootle in from Debian. If there's a flatpak or package that we need in Debian then we should just default to using that.

But the issue is not that you can't see it in the repos - just that it won't install on your machine, right?

No, please complete or report here if you are having issues.

Amber is Buster, yes.

This may be caught in a transition from python2.7 to python3 in Debian. python2.7 is approaching end of life and will be deprecated soon. I see that libxml2 is support with another library for python3;

python3-lxml - pythonic binding for the libxml2 and libxslt libraries

It may be that the chirp application has not yet updated their python dependencies.

@alvesadrian Have you started on this one yet?

I agree with Matthias here - having updates on by default brings security fixes quickly and is something that many folks now have come to expect. Much better to request that users opt out of secure default settings. This comports with Todd's stated policy of "smart defaults".

Plan is to package as flatpak.

Ah, okay. That is a good catch, I've never seen that behavior before. I'll have to investigate and it may be a bug in GNOME-SOFTWARE, or, as you point out, it may be in the packaging.

Thanks for filing the bug. I'm not sure of the issue - can you install freecad via the command line?

Removing the contents of /var/lib/apt/lists removes out of date files. Re-running apt update brings in new Release file and one can download all packages again.

I can reproduce on the L13;

Cannot reproduce on my mini running byzantium.

@joao.azevedo I'll have to update and/or repackage youtube-dl ASAP.

Excellent - we'll get to work on that. :-)

Hi @Moop - thanks for reporting this. A new live image has been released. May I ask that you test again?

FWIW Linode provides 250 Gigs for $5 a month. We could get a Terrabyte with them of web addressable storage for USD 20 per month ($240 per year).

So from a quick check it looks like /dev/md3 is the disk that holds our repos;
/dev/md3 1.8T 822G 919G 48% /srv

I don't have a power meter but I will use powertop. :-)

So how do we do this test in a way that produces useful data? Do we run it at two different settings on two laptops concurrently? Or should I measure battery level over time at specific intervals with each setting on the same device?

Following Guido's link, I ran

I'm working on pushing youtube-dl_2020.09.14 from byzantium to amber.

Yes, let me look into how quickly we can get this into Byzantium. (There are two routes - wait for an update from upstream packaging, e.g. Debian, or upload our own package directly amber.) Uploading the new package directly to amber is likely the fastest way to close this bug.

Can you try again? I cannot reproduce this issue on Byzantium.

gnome-control-center is updated: https://software.pureos.net/package/src/byzantium/gnome-control-center

Do you know what model your Wifi adapter is? It may require proprietary drivers to function which we do not include in PureOS.

An administrator has to remove accounts from the command line. Alternatively, an admin can "disable" your account which stops mail and your ability to login - is this sufficient or would you like the information permanently deleted?

This points to file corruption I think. It appears that people have had success in deleting files in

/var/lib/apt/lists/

and re-running apt.

Can one install PureOS wihout a monitor and mouse? I.e. using only a keyboard.

Fascinating. I believe this is a bug in GNOME. I'll see if there is a suitable place for it upstream.

Is this a duplicate for #T935?

There are parts of the EFI stack that are proprietary, this is why we do not include them in our installer. Other projects may include them in their "non-free" repos but because we're a FSF compliant Free Software distro we don't include non-free repositories. We continue to investigate if there is a way to support GPT.

Run cpu-x. Get this message;

Is this in Amber, or Byzantium? (/etc/os-release should have this info.)

I think that this might be an "okay" situation as it is. The point is that adding deb-src repos is more of a power user thing, no?

Will do. Thanks for keeping it such good shape Jonas. :-)

Is there any relevant dmesg output? Can you monitor the kernel ring buffer with dmesg -w?

I can't reproduce this. I just installed apt-listchanges in Byzantium

@adaian What happens when you turn on the computer? What do you see? Can you write down any messages that the screen shows? The term 'brick' doesn't describe very much unfortunately. Do you have a USB device you can burn a live ISO to and boot from?

I'm getting a "page not found" for the depcheck byzantium issue.

It looks like you're using the Sonic mirror.

We no longer are going to maintain Purebrowser given upstream lack of support.
