  uh, copy pasta from other manifests? :(
• 00:24
  bahamat
  pjustice: I use smfgen, but it doesn't cover all cases.
• 00:25
  nahamu
  github.com/TritonDataCenter/smfgen
• 00:25
  bahamat
  And...I really wish I had a copy of manifold :-/
• 00:25
  nahamu
  I probably have a copy lying around. what happened to it?
• 00:26
  bahamat
  Looks like the author just deleted the repo and package.
• 00:27
  nahamu
  ah. I don't have the repo, just an installed package.
• 00:28
  rmustacc
  What was it written in?
• 00:28
  nahamu
  probably lots of copies in the pkgsrc repos
• 00:28
  nahamu
  python
• 00:28
  rmustacc
  If you have it, even though you may not have the history, you can still probably repackage it.
• 00:28
  nahamu
  *copies in the package repos, not of the upstream repo
• 00:28
  nahamu
  yes, we could certainly resurrect it if need be.
• 00:29
  rmustacc
  Yeah, I was just trying to check if it was in there (but unfortunately the index isn't loading)
• 00:29
  bahamat
  Yeah, I don't have a copy of it anywhere.
• 00:29
  nahamu
  that's because you're too polite to poke around in customer instances :)
• 00:29
  bahamat
  Oh, hey, it's in pkgsrc!
• 00:29
  nahamu
  yes
• 00:30
  nahamu
  sorry, I thought I said that. I must not have been clear.
• 00:30
  bahamat
  You may have, I've got my attention in like 6 places right now :-)
• 00:31
  nahamu
  haha
• 00:38
  nahamu
  bahamat: if for some reason you have trouble finding a copy, let me know.
• 00:52
  pjustice
  There's a python package listed on pypi that hasn't been updated since like 2009, and has python2 behavior
• 00:58
  pjustice
  i.e. you can just pip install manifold, more or less
• 00:58
  pjustice
  Then set about fixing it. :)
• 01:09
  nahamu
  wait, what about this version? github.com/timotheosh/Manifold
• 01:13
  bahamat
  I guess we need to figure out how to et that into pypi
• 02:56
  pjustice
  Oh, nice.
• 06:44
  jperkin
  yeh I just copy/paste from existing manifests I've written for pkgsrc
• 06:45
  jperkin
  one of the things I wasn't so keen about with the generation tools is the format they use, I like to write manifests in the same style as 'svccfg export' so that you can easily diff to see changes
• 13:14
  pjustice
  The plethora of blank lines isn't ideal.
• 13:29
  openstandards
  Hi all, thank you for the help in getting my mellanox cards working flashed the cards with a newer firmware and seems a lot better now
• 13:30
  openstandards
  I've enabled link link aggregation and seems good,
• 16:47
  openstandards
  Ok
• 17:01
  Smithx10
  openstandards: what card?
• 17:02
  openstandards
  mellanox connectx-4

  papertigers
  jperkin: are there no bootstrap pkgsrc tars for anything 2023Q# ?
• 17:48
  jperkin
  papertigers: no I stopped doing non-Q4 builds a number of years ago
• 17:50
  papertigers
  jperkin: ah, didn't realize that I guess. Do the Q4 builds get upates until the following Q4 update comes out?
• 17:51
  jperkin
  for important security fixes yeh, trunk is what most people should use
• 17:52
  papertigers
  perfect; best thing to do is take note of whats installed and do a fresh trunk bootstrap and reinstall what I need?
• 17:58
  jperkin
  yeh if you need to, pkgin export / pkgin import can help with that
• 18:17
  papertigers
  jperkin: oh neat, I had not used that before. Thanks -- I now have my zone updated from 2022Q4
