Anyone got opam installed on thier freebsd system?

Anyone here manage to compile efl-1.26.3 on FreeBSD 13.1?

I've done a git bisect looking for a version that broke something for me. I'm at the end and left with 2 revisions because I had to git bisect skip because of a build failing on a particular commit. However, looking at the two commits there is no possible way either is responsible. How do I figure out the latest commit that was good? I'd like to go back and double check that and start looking from there

ld: error: undefined symbol: libiconv_open

This seems to be a problem with many source downloads.

GHC, Enlightenment, etc...

crb: git bisect log

yeah but that shows you the git bisect good and git bisect bad, you don't really know the order of the commits that are good and bad right?

you just know the order in which they were tested and their status

Is it possible for `freebsd-update` to clobber my /etc/localtime? If not, what else might change that file?

I have noticed in the last couple of days since updating to 13.1-RELEASE-p2 (from p1) that several applications had the wrong time.

Interestingly `date` and my tray's clock had the correct time. Things like in-browser messengers had time offset by two hours.

Thunderbird had receipt times two hours offset, but showed calendar events with the correct (local) time.

`diff /etc/localtime /usr/share/zoneinfo/my/tz` indicated the files were different.

Running `doas tzsetup` fixed it right up and `diff` now shows the two files are the same.

Any thoughts as to what might have caused this?

if tbird pulls the receipt time from headers (I don't know), that could be the TZ the MTA is running in

`doas tzsetup` fixed the issue in thunderbird. It seems to have been correctly reading headers and simply adjusting to the incorrect local time.

Restarting the application after tzsetup shows the same messages with correct displayed local receipt time.

It seems like /etc/localtime got clobbered by something.

The especially weird part is that `date` in the shell showed the correct local time and TZ.

this changed from p1 to p2 and sounds relevant to your observation

Thanks.

It does look like the likely culprit.

I switched from sendmail to dma yesterday but for some reason root wants to use my user's mail directory even if Im logged in as root unless I specify "mail -u root". Anyone know how that happens?

hunter0one: how did you become root?

I mean, by login or sudo/doas?

I used su. You just reminded me to check what if I log in as root from the get-go, just switched to a tty and tested and indeed it works there. Nevermind now ;-)

I think everything's working fine but I read the mailwrapper man page and was a bit confused. "sendmail_enable=YES" in rc.conf will launch whatever is specified by mailwrapper, yes?

I have a strange problem with FreeBSD jail, it says it can not find libpcre.so.1 even though it is there and not starting NGINX

and it seems to happen with nginx and nginx-devel

something is off

has anyone figured out how to get webrtc-based screensharing in firefox working when running under swaywm?

I'm hoping to get screensharing in Google Meet working

aha

now I figured out my problem, I had to restart the jail and afterwards nginx started working fine, that's interesting, maybe ldconfig is being run at startupp

TIL how to triple nest quotes in bash

CrtxReavr: do tell

meena, im heading to bed unfortunatly but catching up on backlog you mentioned something about a redirect not working; if you could kick it to paul.g.webster⊙gc ill take a peek at it this weekend

' " \" \" " '

That works.

CrtxReavr: you could also use a heredoc…

I have this zpool with a lot of fragmentation reported, and I'm wondering if that's something I can fix? bsd.to/VJmB/raw

I think if I could restructure this zfs pool I would, RAIDZ2 is giving me pretty crap performance, but I don't know where I can put these 2.2TB of data while I reimage this machine xD

rtyler, I am just a newbie to zfs so caution! But there looks to be enough space to create a new dataset, copy data from old to new.

The new copy should have the opportunity to be completely defragmented. Then free up the old data.

Caution! I don't know what I don't know!

haha

rwp: are you suggesting that within the `zroot` pool that's listed there? I don't know enough about how fragmentation on disk works with ZFS to know if that would fix it :/

these are rotational disks, so I think the fragmentation is resulting in the slow I/O performance I am seeing at times. I'm still trying to nail this down, I've been in here a number of times about it, but I keep coming back to "guess I should re-image this and change the RAIDZ config"

I am pretty sure that copies across datasets are real copies and therefore the new file is a new file and all new zfs properties are applied to the new file.

New properties like compression, de-dup, and so forth.

As far as performance... What type of organization of VDEVs have you there?

It might be useful to see "zpool list -v zroot" and "zpool list -v zaux".

As that would show the organization of the underlying VDEVs.

Also if you are having performance issues I might be worried that physical sector size defaulted to 512 instead of 4096 as required on newer drives.
