Re: EasyOS Kirkstone-series will continue
I will probably keep maintaining the Kirkstone-series until April 2026, as it is an LTS release, see here: https://wiki.yoctoproject.org/wiki/Releases Scarthgap will also be a LTS. It is scheduled for release in April 2024, but that hasn't yet happened. Will I update to Scarthgap? Don't know. Partly...

EasyOS Kirkstone-series will continue
I have received a few inquiries about this, as people have seen my involvement with QV, it is looking like I have forgotten about EasyOS. QV is built with Void Linux packages, and there are all kinds of hassles having to use binary packages from another distro. EOS Kirkstone-series, on the otherhand...

Re: QV version 240425 pre-alpha uploaded
Sorry, I might be a bit slow to respond to QV bug reports for a few days.
I'm finally giving EasyOS Kirkstone some TLC. A complete recompile with updated packages.

Re: sudo in a command does not work (BookwormPup64 10.0.6)
In EasyOS, June 2023, sudo stopped working. This happened when I changed busybox password encryption from whatever it defaulted to before, to SHA512. I posted about this: https://bkhome.org/news/202306/goodbye-sudo-package.html I also developed a replacement for sudo: https://bkhome.org/news/202306/...

Did you do what I suggested, run this before installing the devx pet: # xbps-install -S There is currently a sync issue, which is why I recommended do that. No but i had launched PKGget a few minutes earlier. There is a sync problem, you will also have to run that command in a terminal. But I have ...

Re: QV version 240419 pre-alpha uploaded
I read some users of Fedora and openSUSE say they have hundreds of snapshots. Given how light-weight a new snapshot is, and it gets created basically instantly, I can see the tendency will be to create lots of snapshots. But then, the user needs a memory prompt, what snapshot they are currently boot...
