The recent news about #freenode #irc take over by Korean crowm prince is still unclear. Look like most FOSS lovers are moving to #liberachat. Official Debian IRC are using OFTC and we #debianmalaysia picked Freenode bcoz of it massive user. We maybe moving out too. Maybe..

The server we use for IRC-Matrix-Telegram bridge have been downgrade today. Now it running using 1CPU and 2GB of RAM. It a minimal server but still good enough for bridge purposes, it use Debian Bullseye 👍

Curious on what package version on backport and other release?

Simply, check with rmadison:

$ rmadison <pkg_name> --architecture amd64

Remember some accidents where someone rm -rf important systems file or project file? The famous one are #gitlab accidents. If you want to play safe. Install "safe-rm" package and set "rm" alias to "safe-rm - i - v" then reload bash environment.

You can just use "/etc/safe-rm.conf" or set you own rules there. It written using perl. The another alternative are "rmfd" package which written using C is a fork of gnu coreutils

#linuxtips from #debianmalaysia

When you remove packages from your machine, there is possibly configuration file are still left out on your disk.

Check it now with "dpkg --list |grep '^rc' |awk '{print $2}'"

To remove thus packages
"apt-get purge -y $(dpkg --list |grep '^rc' |awk '{print $2}')" and

then
"apt-get autoremove -y"

If you want to check which package use the most of your precious disk space, you can query "dpkg-query -W -f='${Installed-Size;10}\t${Package}\n' | sort -n" on you terminal and check the last output from the lists. Mine are #supertux 😂

If you want prevent some application accessing some location, net or etc. You may use #firejail, simply "sudo apt install firejail"

for example let say you don't want "sublime text" (subl) accesing network, you may sandbox it with "firejail - -net=none subl"
