Squeeze repository
Hello!
As lenny lifecicle is going to end, I've decided to host also a squeeze repository. After 2 days of porting/fixing/compiling I've prepared it for three architecture: i386, amd64 and armel (this is mainly for my qnap nas ).
Mainly it contain the same packages of my lenny rep with a big exception: nginx.
I don't use nginx anymore (actually I use cherokee) and there is the official nginx repository that support squeeze.
I've created also a package for ps_mem.py; I'm quite lazy and adding it on my "apt-get install" line in my setup script was quite prefered for me.
Full list of packages: http://apt.balocco.name/pkg_list.squeeze.txt
Changelog: http://apt.balocco.name/changelog.txt
Apt source.list string: deb http://apt.balocco.name squeeze main
As usual deb-src is also available.
Happy new year to anyone!
Comments
OMFG Steve!
Thanks
But I hope that you will still host that lenny repos. Some people will like to use the old distro :P
Yes, I host both. But I don't think that I'll update lenny anymore (is possible but improbable).
You're welcome.
Thanks for coming to your senses and supporting Squeeze How do you find cherokee vs nginx in terms of resources? can it replace nginx in LEB's of the sub-256MB variety?
Under high load nginx use less than 8mb while cherooke reach ~15mb (ab generated traffic, around 500 connections/s if I remember correctly, calling a php page).
But cherokee allow me to use bsd sockets on php5-fpm.
I use cherokee on a 96mb xen vps, with php5-fpm & mysql.
Surely worth a try if you never used it.
The only bad thing is that the configuration is managed with a web gui (that you should execute when you need to configure it).
When I tried Cherokee on OpenVZ it used a lot of memory, which was reduced after using ulimit -s 256
In some way that can be more friendly :P
Nginx also allow this.
Yes, but with nginx I got this problem: http://www.lowendtalk.com/discussion/131/cherokee-nginx-bsd-sockets
I suppose that nginx simply won't wait if can't connect to the socket (for example when the socket is busy), while cherokee wait until it can. Is a very important difference, IMO, when using bsd sockets (at least on low end vps).
Update PHP to 5.3.9
Can you share with my how you did this (set up your own repo)?
Might be interested to do that too
Might be interested to do that too
I used reprepro, following a howto. I don't remember which one.
Awwww, thanks Steve :P
Awesome, looks great; this will save me a lot of time searching for a new replacement, haha.
Added memcached 1.4.7 (backported from wheezy), with sasl support.
Welcome back, LET!
I've updated mara some weeks ago in a wheezy install. I found new processes, and with your announcement now I am more confused, what are maradns, duende and deadwood?
maradns is a dns server; it contains:
1) the maradns daemon itself
2) zoneserver (a program to handle zone transferts and dns-over-tcp)
3) deadwood (a recursive dns resolver)
duende is a program to daemonize a non-daemon program; is usefull with mara because zoneserver and deadwood doesn't daemonize.
in my deadwood package I don't use it ('cause debian already ship start-stop-daemon that can do similar things).
Oh, got it. I use just maradns as a DNS cache for my home devices, IIRC that is the same as "recursive DNS". So, deadwood does the same?
Yes; it can contact upstream nameservers or use directly the root nameservers.
Updated dropbear to 2012.55
Hehe... true :P
I wonder if I can install dcron without installing any MTA?
Maybe compiling from source xD
Or maybe modifiying the package... ?
Each cron implementation, afaik, want an MTA; however you can use dma (dragonbsd mailer agent, a very simple mta) as mta.

Updated the key of the repository, you can get the new one at:
http://apt.balocco.name/key.asc
or using:
apt-key adv --keyserver keyserver.ubuntu.com --recv-key 92B84A1E
If you get error like "BADSIG", please try to:
1) apt-get clean
2) delete apt.balocco.name_* in /var/lib/apt/lists and /var/lib/apt/lists/partial
Minor update in the vzfree package (better debian/rule)
Just wondering, where is your server hosting the repo located?
Edit: Derp, Hostigation
Edit2: Damn, saw your Linfo page - looks so sexy, gotta try it!

Updated php5 to 5.3.13
Added minidlna 1.0.24
Yeah, is very nice. I've patched it to support uptimed.
hey steve-
thank you for the squeeze repo
am trying to install transmission-daemon on my debian squeeze qnap, but get the following error: The following packages have unmet dependencies:
transmission-daemon : Depends: transmission-webinterface (= 2.50-1~Balocco60+1) but 2.73-1~Balocco60+1 is to be installed
i find that the transmission-daemon for armel in the repository is 2.50-1 while the transmission-webinterface is 2.73-1.
in /pool/main/t/transmission/:
transmission-daemon_2.50-1~Balocco60+1_armel.deb 12-May-2012 17:23 196K
transmission-daemon_2.73-1~Balocco60+1_amd64.deb 14-Dec-2012 14:13 218K
transmission-daemon_2.73-1~Balocco60+1_i386.deb 14-Dec-2012 14:13 198K
transmission-webinterface_2.73-1~Balocco60+1_all.deb 14-Dec-2012 14:13 207K
May I kindly request you to either upgrade transmission-daemon for armel to 2.73-1 (transmission-daemon_2.73-1~Balocco60+1_armel.deb)
or alternately make transmission-webinterface_2.50-1~Balocco60+1_armel.deb (or transmission-webinterface_2.50-1~Balocco60+1_all.deb) available please.
thank you
Sorry for the late answer; I didn't got any access to my NAS (that's an armel) to recompile transmission until yesterday night.
Now the package is updated even for armel.
Have fun
