@JohnDoea the problem with that is, where does an answer stop?
In the context of unix.stackexchange.com/q/479452/86440, in my answer, the very first sentence refers to shells, commands, functions, files, file creation, masks, each of which would deserve explanation if I follow your logic to its conclusion.
i installed a kernel:apt install linux-image-4.18.0-0.bpo.1-amd64, after I used apt autoremove. It has removed some python packages that i don' t remember, after I ran into some problems.
Settings and gnome-tweak-tool disappeared, setting is still missing.
I tried apt -f install, apt --fix-broke...
@Scorpion The idea is not to post answers that break if the link is removed. We need the answer to be here, not somewhere else. Have a look at this post for details:
I think we can all agree, this sucks:
If you've been around a little while, you've probably encountered hundreds of answers like this in various forums, some of them even marked as "The Answer" by well-meaning1 forum admins looking to close a thread. We could try to enumerate the commonly-obse...
@StephenKitt I think clarifying the relevant formal-logic behind the term ("anding") and how it differs from addition and concatenation is most important; I didn't think anything else had to have an expansion...

Of course, the question "where does an answer stop" is a good one anyway...
@JohnDoea that’s from your perspective; while that’s important since you’re the question’s author, answers are written for all readers of the site, not just the question’s author. Explaining binary operators is IMO beyond the scope of explaining umask — in fact it’s beyond the scope of this site!

@StephenKitt okay okay, I didn't know "anding" (which I'm still not sure it it's "logical conjunction") is the exact same as bitwise operations.
@FaheemMitha I have no idea. All I know is that a link isn't an answer and if you want to make it one, copy the contents of the link. For everything else, you'll need to ask someone who knows the first thing about copyright law.
@Scorpion No, because again that answer could be deleted or edited or whatever. So if your answer depends on that one, then if it is changed, yours becomes useless.
@terdon imo my answer could provide the solution even without the link, that only explains how drop a root shell in grub2, I don' t know if in solaris is the same.
ffmpeg complains about not being able to write to an output file in a directory (which has a space in the path), but happily reads input from another file in that same directory
You may want to ask a full question here on U&L, which would include the actual commands used and the verbatim error message along with what Unix you are running on.
@Scorpion The rest of the answer wasn't answering anything. You literally said "search how to do it on Solaris". Since there was also another answer explaining how to boot in single user mode on Solaris, yours wasn't adding anything so I deleted it. If it included the details of how to boot to single user mode, that might have been different, but as it was it wasn't adding anything.
@bertieb You would also (if you ask a full question) show that you can in fact ls the directory where you ar writing the file and demonstrate that you can touch it.
(well, not for scripts > 2 years which I haven't touched since)

@StephenKitt that's good of course but isn't it it good in your opinion to declare that bitwise operations and logical conjunction are not the same thing? Given the bad disambiguation in the Wikipage I linked to, one might think they are...
I've seen this comment many times on Unix & Linux as well as on other sites that use the phrasing "backticks have been deprecated", with respect to shells such as Bash & Zsh.
Is this statement true or false?
@Scorpion Single user mode is what you were calling a root shell. And yes, you did answer first but your answer wasn't actually addressing the essential part of the question which was how to do this on Solaris. Instead, you posted a link to an Ask Ubuntu post.
But you can always post a new answer with more details. I'll be happy to upvote it even.
Consider that backups have been made to a remote repository, located on /mnt/backup on server.
For non-Borg users, a repository consists of multiple archives. A single archive is created every time a backup is made. Now, suppose I want to extract a specific archive - for simplicity, the most rec...
@FaheemMitha First one may have been from someone just browsing tags. The second one may have been from someone seeing it being pushed up by the first answer.
@FaheemMitha Most people seems to lose IQ points once they are in front of a computer. Some worse than others....workplace is not the worse of places, travel SE is really bad.
Not sure whether this is obvious, but I've got this problem: I downloaded the Julia binary package, and I can run it fine from the directory where I extracted it
Like pi@raspberrypi:~/opt/julia-1.0.0/bin $ ./julia
Then I created a soft link from ~/bin/julia to ~/opt/julia-1.0.0/bin, and added ~/bin to my $PATH
But when I now run julia (from somewhere else), I get julia: error while loading shared libraries: libjulia.so.1: cannot open shared object file: No such file or directory
ldd julia shows libjulia.so.1 => /home/pi/opt/julia-1.0.0/bin/./../lib/libjulia.so.1
Anyone know what's going on here or does this warrant a proper question post?
I used to think gcc was a drag to build. rust is several times worse, and ghc is almost as bad. Oh well, I'll just hope they are all done by tomorrow when I wake up...
