Nothing of that will work as normal user.

rm -rf /var/lib/rpm/__db.00* rpm --rebuilddb cd /var/lib/rpm mv Packages Packages-BACKUP db_dump Packages-BACKUP | db_load Packages rpm -qa rpm --rebuilddb

so "sudo -i" or "sudo su" before it.

What did you do to that poor fedora that it forgot its release ?

Which version is it? 28? or older?

28

dnf update --best --allowerasing --refresh --releasever=28

Applies to "rawhide" however, not to stable.

ok

i like to use sequences of random words as names for stuff. my server is called weirdrescue

That’s nice. Safe and creative.

i dont have time atm.

If you have time, leave us alone. Sending random messages without basis or explanation is considered spam.

You’re warned @BatmanIzHere

I already did that once. Maybe we need to start considering bans

Yeah, he's left the group.

Fedora Magazine Fedora 28: Better smart card support in OpenSSH Smart card support was introduced around 2010 with OpenSSH 5.4. The inital scope was restricted to the RSA keys — the only supported key type at that time in OpenSSH — other than legacy DSA keys. Previously, users needed to specify the PKCS#11 driver for the smart card. Additionally, the OpenSSH client had to query […]

try dnf update --best --allowerasing --refresh

I always use dnf upgrade which one's newer or preferred?

Should I get a smartcard reader for my T580 (when I'm going to buy it)?

I don't even have a smartcard but they seem meme-worthy

I always use dnf upgrade which one's newer or preferred?

I think is the same, upgrade is kept because yum compatibility

Should I get a smartcard reader for my T580 (when I'm going to buy it)?

I never need one, but why not

<jwf> @nicolas_herschke: There is a subtle difference between `dnf upgrade` and `dnf update`. I think one also includes checks for broken packages or something? Best to read the man page

That's what I'm doing and I don't even see update command

Oh it's only 7 euros extra XD

<jwf> Oh, huh

<jwf> It used to be different

<jwf> But now, looks like `update` is an alias for `upgrade`

<jwf> I love man pages

<jwf> I love man pages

Haha I do too

<jwf> But now, looks like `update` is an alias for `upgrade`

I found it, too. So upgrade is the new one, good.

Windows made a custom Linux Kernel, aha

Does anyone have experience with smart cards? ?

Does anyone have experience with smart cards? ?

From what I've read, there's just a couple of commands in GnuPG that writes the key

Can the T580 have a native smartcard reader?

Can the T580 have a native smartcard reader?

Yes

From what I've read, there's just a couple of commands in GnuPG that writes the key

So do you just write the key to a smartcard?

What kind of smart card should I get and how much do they cost?

Oh, awesome. Just the T580 or the T480 as well

Idk, as they are business laptops I think on the T480 as well?

I don't think they are a lot but yes, it's something as simple as gpg --write-smart-card or something like that (you'll have to check the man page to be sure)

Oh, awesome. Just the T580 or the T480 as well

Just checked, they're 12 euros extra xd

I know I'm not an admin but he seems to be purposely unhelpful when people ask questions

Meh. He didn’t give me time to ban him. That’s unfair.

I don't think they are a lot but yes, it's something as simple as gpg --write-smart-card or something like that (you'll have to check the man page to be sure)

So when I want to use the key I'll have to enter my password to decrypt it right?

You enter the card, enter the pin which unlocks it and then the app uses the key on the card to authenticate

Meh. He didn’t give me time to ban him. That’s unfair.

Yeah

I don't even have a smartcard but they seem meme-worthy

Don’t buy something you don’t need. If you ever get a smartcard then buy the reader, if you think it’s worth.

Don’t buy something you don’t need. If you ever get a smartcard then buy the reader, if you think it’s worth.

But I'd like to experiment with it

Thanks man! ?

ERROR: S client not available

Well, it's social service

<rm-rfasterisk> So I finally came back home to my 5 megabits speed. I reinstalled fedora 28 just for the kicks of it. I have never been more satisfied :P

Cool

Is vim still broken in F28?

It's working perfectly well for me

What about it was broken?

I always use dnf upgrade which one's newer or preferred?

upgrade is preferred

I always use dnf upgrade which one's newer or preferred?

and always add --refresh --best

That will assure you get the latest and greatest as well as showing any changes.

You still have to confirm them of course :P

Awesome, thanks

Some perl library was not up-to-date iirc

Can I install Fedora on a RPi3 headless?

Can I install Fedora on a RPi3 headless?

Yes

you can setup ssh keys with the fedora image installer for arm.

All detailled in the wiki.

Brilliant, thank you :)

Be aware that due to rpi3 needing weird blobs for wifi fedora does not support wifi or wifi settings on it ootb, only lan connections.

But there was a Pidora.

But there was a Pidora.

Thats dead.

ok

Fedora now has official arm support, thats why pidora died ^^

I see.

Update Command dnf [options] update Deprecated alias for the Upgrade Command. ^^ from the dnf man page

You are telling me that I've been using a deprecated alias for a command that I never knew? Upgrade was the actual command all along?

Hi everyone, The Telegram desktop version, very slow to open, after upgrade Fedora 27 to 28.
