This is a very good idea.

:D

OK, so, my latest test paste.ubuntu.com/13514297 Multiple URI, multiple releases, everything respected . . . except default case. . . I still don't get it

I'm gonna go smoke and sleep now

Adios

Night @Serg!

@Serg paste.ubuntu.com/13514461

@xiaodongjie paste.ubuntu.com/13514516

@Serg CORRECT =) paste.ubuntu.com/13514551

@Serg Not 100% paste.ubuntu.com/13514568

@A.B. Quick test please? This just prints the lines to be added: paste.ubuntu.com/13514867

@kos ok =)

@A.B. Maybe it's easier if you post an input file and an output file, at least we don't bother you every 5 minutes :)

@A.B. I'm here.

@xiaodongjie o/ =)

my script is the best? :)

I wrote it from scratch.

@xiaodongjie paste.ubuntu.com/13514516

Or have I used an old version @xiaodongjie

@A.B. ?

(same for security)

o_O

From this link paste.ubuntu.com/13514867

@kos is this the correct timestamp? Paste from kos at Thu, 26 Nov 2015 14:16:19 +0000

@A.B. I'll be nearest now. because i'm using aptsources module as same as ubuntu software center.

Yes. O.o

paste.ubuntu.com/13514867

This one here

% cat sources.list
deb archive.ubuntu.com/ubuntu wily main
% perl script.pl enable security
deb archive.ubuntu.com/ubuntu wily-security main #Added by script

@A.B. my script make new lines from empty sources.list.

@kos this timestamp? Paste from kos at Thu, 26 Nov 2015 14:16:19 +0000

@A.B. Yes, that's it

:\

no

output

-_-

the current version: paste.ubuntu.com/13514980

@xiaodongjie new lines is wrong with an empty sources.list

rule 1

yes, let me check rule 1

oh, yes, i see.

will modify soon.

@A.B. I don't understand, one of us is messing up. I just copied and pasted from your last link to a new file, foo.pl, and sources.list (in the same directory) contains this line: deb archive.ubuntu.com/ubuntu wily main

Here's the output:

% cat sources.list
deb archive.ubuntu.com/ubuntu wily main
% perl foo.pl enable security
deb archive.ubuntu.com/ubuntu wily-security main #Added by script

strange

cat foo.pl | pastebinit

easier than copy and paste

@kos ^^^

Nice, I didn't know about that

Anyway:

% <script.pl pastebinit
paste.ubuntu.com/13515023
% <sources.list pastebinit
paste.ubuntu.com/13515028

@A.B. ^^

@kos but the time stamp is always the same: Paste from kos at Thu, 26 Nov 2015 14:16:19 +0000

@A.B. just have a problem.

your question.

always 14:16:19

please look.

@xiaodongjie yes?

let's guess that security base uri as "http://a.com"

and

updates base uri is "http://b.com"

@A.B. No! paste.ubuntu.com/13515023 -> timestamp = Thu, 26 Nov 2015 14:36:22 +0000, paste.ubuntu.com/13515028 -> timestamp = Thu, 26 Nov 2015 14:36:35 +0000

then when i apt-add-update enable default

You're messing up :D

Then please explain me about it.

"deb a.com wily main" is good or "deb b.com wily main" is good?

default need to follow security or updates or proposal or backports?

please look the rule 6

@kos :| your script works with deb archive.ubuntu.com/ubuntu wily main but not with deb http://archive.ubuntu.com/ubuntu wily main

@A.B. Ok, let me see why.

@xiaodongjie nothing of them, follow the repositories

@A.B. there are many repository mirrors. for example, cn.archive.ubuntu.com for china.

and default security url is not archive.ubuntu.com

it's security.ubuntu.com

no, a repository is main, multiverse, universe, restricted

cn.archive.ubuntu.com is part of a URI

a URI like http://archive.ubuntu.com/ubuntu

yes, but archive.ubuntu.com can replaced security.ubuntu.com

actually wily-security uses security.ubuntu.com rather than archive.ubuntu.com

it's made from ubuntu software center.

@A.B. Fixed, not it works with deb http://..., deb us.... and deb http://us.... : paste.ubuntu.com/13515180

@A.B. please check with your ubunut software center.

little confused.

if i use archive.ubuntu.com for security, it'll work or not?

@xiaodongjie What a crap =(

@A.B. hmm?

@xiaodongjie it works

wow, @A.B. what is the contents of your default sources.list?

can you pastebin it?

@xiaodongjie default sources.list?

i mean that created from ubuntu software center when you check security.

ok

yes.

paste.ubuntu.com/13515247

@A.B. Side note, it doesn't work on deb-src yet, so don't bother about that. I didn't add it because it's the same as what it does already, but I want to be sure there are no errors in what I have before continuing, or I'll have to rewrite everything again.

it's yours, @A.B.

third and fourth lines.

there is a problem at third and fourth lines.

@kos, great

looks good

@kos little bug deb http://archive.ubuntu.com/ubuntu wily-default main

@A.B. Ok, It's not the only one, I forgot to check duplicates before writing. Fixing both

Yes, the security thing is stupid :(

@A.B. so how to solve the security lines?

without aptsources api?

Let's make it easy. Simply ignore the lines with security.ubuntu.com @kos @xiaodongjie @Serg

And how to get default url from the security lines?

@A.B. good.

then change the question please.

But not the repositories for security.ubuntu.com

if there is only one line like

please visit security.ubuntu.com/ubuntu. there are security updates.

deb http://security.ubuntu.com/ubuntu wily main

yes, they are difference.

apt-add-update enable security should add deb http://security.ubuntu.com/ubuntu wily-security main

yes, right.

and apt-add-update enable default should add deb archive.ubuntu.com/ubuntu wily main.

it's not related to security.

that's correct

And security and updates and so on all related to default.

default is parent and

anothers are all children.

aptsources module is used by Ubuntu Software Center.

enable default should add only … wily …

yes, right.

If we have deb archive.ubuntu.com/ubuntu wily-updates universe, than deb archive.ubuntu.com/ubuntu wily universe

yes, right.

my script does not work as that?

oh, deb-src may be appended.

one line.

heh

right?

yes, your script appends deb-src. If there is no deb-src, add no deb-src @xiaodongjie

then it's completed?

@xiaodongjie your script?

check each rule @xiaodongjie

yes

i see.

@A.B. paste.ubuntu.com/13515469

@xiaodongjie Have you checked all rules?

yes

Ok, I have to go. I will check it later. =)

yes.

@A.B. I think I've made it :) I overthought this. But if this is wrong I'm out :D

% <sources.list pastebinit -a kos
paste.ubuntu.com/13516723

@kos :)

I think that he just sleep now. So we need to wait until he wake up.

To continue the discussion. :)

@kos I'll go to bed, too. see you tomorrow.

@xiaodongjie Hmmm I think he just off. He's in my same time zone (CET), I don't think he sleeps at 18.29 :D

:D

@xiaodongjie Ok! Goodnight then!

:) Did you look my script?

@kos paste.ubuntu.com/13515469

see you later :)

@xiaodongjie No, not yet, I'll check it now.

Later!

@A.B. By the way it's still a beta, it has everything (chekcs src, URIs, already enabled components) but can't delete (and it can be polished quite a bit, I'll do it if it works).

Sorry folks. I'm back in 11 hours. At 8am.

I understand you want to have each URI associated with all the components it has paste.ubuntu.com/13514568 That is a bit difficult to do.

If we have

deb it.archive.ubuntu.com/ubuntu wily universe

Then what is the expected output ?

Also, what is the purpose of the default ? The default , I understand , should be deb URI and the release, trusty or wily . . . OK, but problem is what if we have default for one URI enabled and then there's one URI that is non default ? My guess is that default will be enabled just for one URI, but that means the URI and the source have to be associated.

It may be possible to do, but I think it's too complex. There's bunch of things to keep associated

Also there is no trusty security for extras !!! Just put extras.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/dists/trusty into your browser and see

At least the way I see it, #8 requirement is particularly difficult to achieve

I could do this:

xieerqi:$ awk '/^deb.*/ && $0!~/extras/ && $0!~/partner/ { printf $2" "; for(i=4;i<=NF;i++) printf $i" "; printf "\n"}' after | sort -u
security.ubuntu.com/ubuntu main restricted
security.ubuntu.com/ubuntu multiverse
security.ubuntu.com/ubuntu universe
us.archive.ubuntu.com/ubuntu main restricted
us.archive.ubuntu.com/ubuntu main restricted universe multiverse
us.archive.ubuntu.com/ubuntu multiverse
us.archive.ubuntu.com/ubuntu universe

And then just insert wily-security or trusty-backports , or whatever suite is requested
