# Devuan meet 2020-11-26 @20:30 UTC

Present: rrq, jaromil, golinux, Adam, LeePen, mason, Xenguy, danyspin97

## Old Business

### mason
* unbound is going the wrong way with their patch. A CVE has been
  assigned, but the correction won't help us directly, as they're going
  to continue chowning the pidfile. This ideally should be fixed at
  Debian, either to fix the code to not do that or to use sysvinit
  scripting to manage a pidfile for unbound and suppress its doing so
  itself via options. Failing that, we'd want to fork it.
  * https://github.com/NLnetLabs/unbound/issues/303
* wiki project pending lurc
  * went back to twiki/foswiki after finding issues with
    third-party-plugins as a necessity with the PHP wikis
  * may address separation of code and data with the AppArmor techniques
    noted below, under pkginfo


## Old Actions

## New Business
  * (rrq) pkginfo got a fix, plus new variant at
    https://pkginfo.devuan.org/cgi-bin/policy-query.xml
    * (mason) https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=PRZ59lxLlOY AppArmor
      no-write/no-network profile for pkginfo?
      * rationale, we ship AppArmor now, so it wouldn't be too painful
        to implement (rrq) logging the concerns that a) the "apt-cache
        policy" search is different from current (=old) pkginfo, and 2)
        the "looks" of the new variant is not ideal (for all eyes
        involved) (rrq) should move the repo into the devuan/ collection
* (rrq) beowulf 3.1 .. bgstack15 is on it; should check if date estimate
  is possible
* (fsr) beowulf-proposed-updates needs to move into beowulf main to
  build new isos. (rrq) yes, that's an ideal order of events, also
  making the iso 3.1 truly be of "beowulf" even if it's techically
  possible to collate several "source points" on the isos


### LeePen
* New versions of apt (thanks amesser), util-linux and network-manager
in ceres.
* New version of tomcat9 in beowulf-proposed-updates.

### danyspin97
* noting:
  * https://sr.ht/~kennylevinsen/seatd/ (LeePen) Will look at packaging
    for Devuan.
    * (mason) capturing meeting notes: we'd be upstream for a potential
      Debian package, following the same pattern as elogind
  * https://github.com/swaywm/sway
