- <div class="body"><p>Wireless mesh networks are self organising and self healing
-networks that can be used to connect computers across small and large
-areas, depending on the radio technology used. Normal wifi equipment
-can be used to create home made radio networks, and there are several
-successful examples like
-<a href="http://www.freifunk.net/">Freifunk</a> and
-<a href="http://www.awmn.net/">Athens Wireless Metropolitan Network</a>
-(see
-<a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_wireless_community_networks_by_region#Greece">wikipedia
-for a large list</a>) around the globe. To give you an idea how it
-work, check out the nice overview of the Kiel Freifunk community which
-can be seen from their
-<a href="http://freifunk.in-kiel.de/ffmap/nodes.html">dynamically
-updated node graph and map</a>, where one can see how the mesh nodes
-automatically handle routing and recover from nodes disappearing.
-There is also a small community mesh network group in Oslo, Norway,
-and that is the main topic of this blog post.</p>
-
-<p>I've wanted to check out mesh networks for a while now, and hoped
-to do it as part of my involvement with the <a
-href="http://www.nuug.no/">NUUG member organisation</a> community, and
-my recent involvement in
-<a href="https://wiki.debian.org/FreedomBox">the Freedombox project</a>
-finally lead me to give mesh networks some priority, as I suspect a
-Freedombox should use mesh networks to connect neighbours and family
-when possible, given that most communication between people are
-between those nearby (as shown for example by research on Facebook
-communication patterns). It also allow people to communicate without
-any central hub to tap into for those that want to listen in on the
-private communication of citizens, which have become more and more
-important over the years.</p>
-
-<p>So far I have only been able to find one group of people in Oslo
-working on community mesh networks, over at the hack space
-<a href="http://hackeriet.no/">Hackeriet</a> at Husmania. They seem to
-have started with some Freifunk based effort using OLSR, called
-<a href="http://oslo.freifunk.net/index.php?title=Main_Page">the Oslo
-Freifunk project</a>, but that effort is now dead and the people
-behind it have moved on to a batman-adv based system called
-<a href="http://meshfx.org/trac">meshfx</a>. Unfortunately the wiki
-site for the Oslo Freifunk project is no longer possible to update to
-reflect this fact, so the old project page can't be updated to point to
-the new project. A while back, the people at Hackeriet invited people
-from the Freifunk community to Oslo to talk about mesh networks. I
-came across this video where Hans Jørgen Lysglimt interview the
-speakers about this talk (from
-<a href="https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=N2Kd7CLkhSY">youtube</a>):</p>
-
-<p><iframe width="420" height="315" src="https://www.youtube.com/embed/N2Kd7CLkhSY" frameborder="0" allowfullscreen></iframe></p>
-
-<p>I mentioned OLSR and batman-adv, which are mesh routing protocols.
-There are heaps of different protocols, and I am still struggling to
-figure out which one would be "best" for some definitions of best, but
-given that the community mesh group in Oslo is so small, I believe it
-is best to hook up with the existing one instead of trying to create a
-completely different setup, and thus this have decided to focus on
-batman-adv for now. It sure help me to know that the very cool
-<a href="http://www.servalproject.org/">Serval project in Australia</a>
-is using batman-adv as their meshing technology when it create a self
-organizing and self healing telephony system for disaster areas and
-less industrialized communities. Check out this cool video presenting
-that project (from
-<a href="https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=30qNfzJCQOA">youtube</a>):</p>
-
-<p><iframe width="560" height="315" src="https://www.youtube.com/embed/30qNfzJCQOA" frameborder="0" allowfullscreen></iframe></p>
-
-<p>According to the wikipedia page on
-<a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wireless_mesh_network">Wireless
-mesh network</a> there are around 70 competing schemes for routing
-packets across mesh networks, and OLSR, B.A.T.M.A.N. and
-B.A.T.M.A.N. advanced are protocols used by several free software
-based community mesh networks.</p>
-
-</p>The batman-adv protocol is a bit special, as it provide layer 2
-(as in ethernet ) routing, allowing ipv4 and ipv6 to work on the same
-network. One way to think about it is that it provide a mesh based
-vlan you can bridge to or handle like any other vlan connected to your
-computer. The required drivers are already in the Linux kernel at
-least since Debian Wheezy, and it is fairly easy to set up. A
-<a href="http://www.open-mesh.org/projects/batman-adv/wiki/Quick-start-guide">good
-introduction</a> is available from the Open Mesh project. These are
-the key settings needed to join the Oslo meshfx network:</p>
-
-<table>
-<tr><th>Setting</th><th>Value</th></tr>
-<tr><td>Protocol / kernel module</td><td>batman-adv</td></tr>
-<tr><td>ESSID</td><td>meshfx@hackeriet</td></tr>
-<td>Channel / Frequency</td><td>11 / 2462</td></tr>
-<td>Cell ID</td><td>02:BA:00:00:00:01</td>
-</table>
-
-<p>The reason for setting ad-hoc wifi Cell ID is to work around bugs
-in firmware used in wifi card and wifi drivers. (See a nice post from
-VillageTelco about
-"<a href="http://tiebing.blogspot.no/2009/12/ad-hoc-cell-splitting-re-post-original.html">Information
-about cell-id splitting, stuck beacons, and failed IBSS merges!</a>
-for details.) When these settings are activated and you have some
-other mesh node nearby, your computer will be connected to the mesh
-network and can communicate with any mesh node that is connected to
-any of the nodes in your network of nodes. :)</p>
-
-<p>My initial plan was to reuse my old Linksys WRT54GL as a mesh node,
-but that seem to be very hard, as I have not been able to locate a
-firmware supporting batman-adv. If anyone know how to use that old
-wifi access point with batman-adv these days, please let me know.</p>
-
-<p>If you find this project interesting and want to join, please join
-us on IRC, either channel
-<a href="irc://irc.freenode.net/#oslohackerspace">#oslohackerspace</a>
-or <a href="irc://irc.freenode.net/#nuug">#nuug</a> on
-irc.freenode.net.</p>
-
-<p>While investigating mesh networks in Oslo, I came across an old
-research paper from the university of Stavanger and Telenor Research
-and Innovation called
-<a href="http://folk.uio.no/paalee/publications/netrel-egeland-iswcs-2008.pdf">The
-reliability of wireless backhaul mesh networks</a> and elsewhere
-learned that Telenor have been experimenting with mesh networks at
-Grünerløkka in Oslo. So mesh networks are also interesting for
-commercial companies, even though Telenor discovered that it was hard
-to figure out a good business plan for mesh networking and as far as I
-know have closed down the experiment. Perhaps Telenor or others would
-be interested in a cooperation?</p>

+Would you like to give your school's computer a longer life? Are you
+tired of sneaker administration, running from computer to computer
+reinstalling the operating system? Would you like to administrate all
+the computers in your school using only a couple of hours every week?
+Check out Debian Edu Jessie!
+
+Skolelinux is used by at least two hundred schools all over the world,

+
+About Debian Edu and Skolelinux
+===============================
+
+Debian Edu, also known as Skolelinux[2], is a Linux distribution based
+on Debian providing an out-of-the box environment of a completely
+configured school network. Immediately after installation a school
+server running all services needed for a school network is set up just
+waiting for users and machines being added via GOsa², a comfortable
+Web-UI. A netbooting environment is prepared using PXE, so after
+initial installation of the main server from CD or USB stick all other
+machines can be installed via the network. The provided school server
+provides LDAP database and Kerberos authentication service,
+centralized home directories, DHCP server, web proxy and many other
+services. The desktop contains more than 60 educational software
+packages[3] and more are available from the Debian archive, and
+schools can choose between KDE, Gnome, LXDE, Xfce and MATE desktop
+environment.

- <div class="body"><p>The other day I was pleased and surprised to discover that Marcelo
-Salvador had published a
-<a href="https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=w-GgpdqgLFc">video on
-Youtube</a> showing how to install the standalone Debian Edu /
-Skolelinux profile. This is the profile intended for use at home or
-on laptops that should not be integrated into the provided network
-services (no central home directory, no Kerberos / LDAP directory etc,
-in other word a single user machine). The result is 11 minutes long,
-and show some user applications (seem to be rather randomly picked).
-Missed a few of my favorites like celestia, planets and chromium
-showing the <a href="http://www.zygotebody.com/">Zygote Body 3D model
-of the human body</a>, but I guess he did not know about those or find
-other programs more interesting. :) And the video do not show the
-advantages I believe is one of the most valuable featuers in Debian
-Edu, its central school server making it possible to run hundreds of
-computers without hard drives by installing one central

+ <div class="body"><p>I spent last weekend at <a href="http://www.makercon.no/">Makercon
+Nordic</a>, a great conference and workshop for makers in Norway and
+the surrounding countries. I had volunteered on behalf of the
+Norwegian Unix Users Group (NUUG) to video record the talks, and we
+had a great and exhausting time recording the entire day, two days in
+a row. There were only two of us, Hans-Petter and me, and we used the

-complete announcement text can be found at
-<a href="http://www.debian.org/News/2013/20130928">the Debian News

+ <div class="title"><a href="http://people.skolelinux.org/pere/blog/listadmin__the_quick_way_to_moderate_mailman_lists___nice_free_software.html">listadmin, the quick way to moderate mailman lists - nice free software</a></div>
+ <div class="date">22nd October 2014</div>
+ <div class="body"><p>If you ever had to moderate a mailman list, like the ones on
+alioth.debian.org, you know the web interface is fairly slow to
+operate. First you visit one web page, enter the moderation password
+and get a new page shown with a list of all the messages to moderate
+and various options for each email address. This take a while for
+every list you moderate, and you need to do it regularly to do a good
+job as a list moderator. But there is a quick alternative,
+<a href="http://heim.ifi.uio.no/kjetilho/hacks/#listadmin">the
+listadmin program</a>. It allow you to check lists for new messages
+to moderate in a fraction of a second. Here is a test run on two
+lists I recently took over:</p>
+
+<p><blockquote><pre>
+% time listadmin xiph
+fetching data for pkg-xiph-commits@lists.alioth.debian.org ... nothing in queue
+fetching data for pkg-xiph-maint@lists.alioth.debian.org ... nothing in queue
+
+real 0m1.709s
+user 0m0.232s
+sys 0m0.012s
+%
+</pre></blockquote></p>
+
+<p>In 1.7 seconds I had checked two mailing lists and confirmed that
+there are no message in the moderation queue. Every morning I
+currently moderate 68 mailman lists, and it normally take around two
+minutes. When I took over the two pkg-xiph lists above a few days
+ago, there were 400 emails waiting in the moderator queue. It took me
+less than 15 minutes to process them all using the listadmin
+program.</p>
+
+<p>If you install
+<a href="https://tracker.debian.org/pkg/listadmin">the listadmin
+package</a> from Debian and create a file <tt>~/.listadmin.ini</tt>
+with content like this, the moderation task is a breeze:</p>
+
+<p><blockquote><pre>
+username username@example.org
+spamlevel 23
+default discard
+discard_if_reason "Posting restricted to members only. Remove us from your mail list."
+
+password secret
+adminurl https://{domain}/mailman/admindb/{list}
+mailman-list@lists.example.com
+
+password hidden
+other-list@otherserver.example.org
+</pre></blockquote></p>
+
+<p>There are other options to set as well. Check the manual page to
+learn the details.</p>
+
+<p>If you are forced to moderate lists on a mailman installation where
+the SSL certificate is self signed or not properly signed by a
+generally accepted signing authority, you can set a environment
+variable when calling listadmin to disable SSL verification:</p>
+
+<p><blockquote><pre>
+PERL_LWP_SSL_VERIFY_HOSTNAME=0 listadmin
+</pre></blockquote></p>
+
+<p>If you want to moderate a subset of the lists you take care of, you
+can provide an argument to the listadmin script like I do in the
+initial screen dump (the xiph argument). Using an argument, only
+lists matching the argument string will be processed. This make it
+quick to accept messages if you notice the moderation request in your
+email.</p>
+
+<p>Without the listadmin program, I would never be the moderator of 68
+mailing lists, as I simply do not have time to spend on that if the
+process was any slower. The listadmin program have saved me hours of
+time I could spend elsewhere over the years. It truly is nice free
+software.</p>
+
+<p>As usual, if you use Bitcoin and want to show your support of my

+
+<p>Update 2014-10-27: Added missing 'username' statement in
+configuration example. Also, I've been told that the
+PERL_LWP_SSL_VERIFY_HOSTNAME=0 setting do not work for everyone. Not
+sure why.</p>

-<p>On other news, I am happy to report that Freedombox based on Debian
-Jessie is coming along quite well, and soon both Owncloud and using
-Tor should be available for testers of the Freedombox solution. :) In
-a few weeks I hope everything needed to test it is included in Debian.
-The withsqlite package is already in Debian, and the plinth package is
-pending in NEW. The third and vital part of that puzzle is the
-metapackage/setup framework, which is still pending an upload. Join
-us on <a href="irc://irc.debian.org:6667/%23freedombox">IRC
-(#freedombox on irc.debian.org)</a> and

+ <div class="title"><a href="http://people.skolelinux.org/pere/blog/Debian_Jessie__PXE_and_automatic_firmware_installation.html">Debian Jessie, PXE and automatic firmware installation</a></div>
+ <div class="date">17th October 2014</div>
+ <div class="body"><p>When PXE installing laptops with Debian, I often run into the
+problem that the WiFi card require some firmware to work properly.
+And it has been a pain to fix this using preseeding in Debian.
+Normally something more is needed. But thanks to
+<a href="https://packages.qa.debian.org/i/isenkram.html">my isenkram
+package</a> and its recent tasksel extension, it has now become easy
+to do this using simple preseeding.</p>
+
+<p>The isenkram-cli package provide tasksel tasks which will install
+firmware for the hardware found in the machine (actually, requested by
+the kernel modules for the hardware). (It can also install user space
+programs supporting the hardware detected, but that is not the focus
+of this story.)</p>
+
+<p>To get this working in the default installation, two preeseding
+values are needed. First, the isenkram-cli package must be installed
+into the target chroot (aka the hard drive) before tasksel is executed
+in the pkgsel step of the debian-installer system. This is done by
+preseeding the base-installer/includes debconf value to include the
+isenkram-cli package. The package name is next passed to debootstrap
+for installation. With the isenkram-cli package in place, tasksel
+will automatically use the isenkram tasks to detect hardware specific
+packages for the machine being installed and install them, because
+isenkram-cli contain tasksel tasks.</p>
+
+<p>Second, one need to enable the non-free APT repository, because
+most firmware unfortunately is non-free. This is done by preseeding
+the apt-mirror-setup step. This is unfortunate, but for a lot of
+hardware it is the only option in Debian.</p>
+
+<p>The end result is two lines needed in your preseeding file to get
+firmware installed automatically by the installer:</p>
+
+<p><blockquote><pre>
+base-installer base-installer/includes string isenkram-cli
+apt-mirror-setup apt-setup/non-free boolean true
+</pre></blockquote></p>
+
+<p>The current version of isenkram-cli in testing/jessie will install
+both firmware and user space packages when using this method. It also
+do not work well, so use version 0.15 or later. Installing both
+firmware and user space packages might give you a bit more than you
+want, so I decided to split the tasksel task in two, one for firmware
+and one for user space programs. The firmware task is enabled by
+default, while the one for user space programs is not. This split is
+implemented in the package currently in unstable.</p>
+
+<p>If you decide to give this a go, please let me know (via email) how
+this recipe work for you. :)</p>
+
+<p>So, I bet you are wondering, how can this work. First and
+foremost, it work because tasksel is modular, and driven by whatever
+files it find in /usr/lib/tasksel/ and /usr/share/tasksel/. So the
+isenkram-cli package place two files for tasksel to find. First there
+is the task description file (/usr/share/tasksel/descs/isenkram.desc):</p>
+
+<p><blockquote><pre>
+Task: isenkram-packages
+Section: hardware
+Description: Hardware specific packages (autodetected by isenkram)
+ Based on the detected hardware various hardware specific packages are
+ proposed.
+Test-new-install: show show
+Relevance: 8
+Packages: for-current-hardware
+
+Task: isenkram-firmware
+Section: hardware
+Description: Hardware specific firmware packages (autodetected by isenkram)
+ Based on the detected hardware various hardware specific firmware
+ packages are proposed.
+Test-new-install: mark show
+Relevance: 8
+Packages: for-current-hardware-firmware
+</pre></blockquote></p>
+
+<p>The key parts are Test-new-install which indicate how the task
+should be handled and the Packages line referencing to a script in
+/usr/lib/tasksel/packages/. The scripts use other scripts to get a
+list of packages to install. The for-current-hardware-firmware script
+look like this to list relevant firmware for the machine:
+
+<p><blockquote><pre>
+#!/bin/sh
+#
+PATH=/usr/sbin:$PATH
+export PATH
+isenkram-autoinstall-firmware -l
+</pre></blockquote></p>
+
+<p>With those two pieces in place, the firmware is installed by
+tasksel during the normal d-i run. :)</p>
+
+<p>If you want to test what tasksel will install when isenkram-cli is
+installed, run <tt>DEBIAN_PRIORITY=critical tasksel --test
+--new-install</tt> to get the list of packages that tasksel would
+install.</p>
+
+<p><a href="https://wiki.debian.org/DebianEdu/">Debian Edu</a> will be
+pilots in testing this feature, as isenkram is used there now to
+install firmware, replacing the earlier scripts.</p>

-<p>About Debian Edu and Skolelinux</p>
-
-<p>Debian Edu, also known as Skolelinux, is a Linux distribution based
-on Debian providing an out-of-the box environment of a completely
-configured school network. Immediately after installation a school
-server running all services needed for a school network is set up just
-waiting for users and machines being added via GOsa², a comfortable
-Web-UI. A netbooting environment is prepared using PXE, so after
-initial installation of the main server from CD or USB stick all other
-machines can be installed via the network. The provided school server
-provides LDAP database and Kerberos authentication service,
-centralized home directories, DHCP server, web proxy and many other
-services. The desktop contains more than 60 educational software
-packages and more are available from the Debian archive, and schools
-can choose between KDE, Gnome, LXDE and Xfce desktop environment.</p>
-
-<p>This is the seventh test release based on Debian Wheezy. Basically
-this is an updated and slightly improved version compared to the
-Squeeze release.</p>
-
-<p>Notes for upgrades from Alpha Prereleases</p>
-
-<p>Alpha based installations should reinstall or downgrade the
-versions of gosa and libpam-mklocaluser to the ones used in this beta
-release. Both alpha and beta0 based installations should reinstall or
-deal with gosa.conf manually; there are two options: (1) Keep
-gosa.conf and edit this file as outlined on the mailing list. (2)
-Accept the new version of gosa.conf and replace both contained admin
-password placeholders with the password hashes found in the old one
-(backup copy!). In both cases all users need to change their password
-to make sure a password is set for CIFS access to their home
-directory.</p>

- <div class="date">10th September 2013</div>
- <div class="body"><p>I was introduced to the
-<a href="http://www.freedomboxfoundation.org/">Freedombox project</a>
-in 2010, when Eben Moglen presented his vision about serving the need
-of non-technical people to keep their personal information private and
-within the legal protection of their own homes. The idea is to give
-people back the power over their network and machines, and return
-Internet back to its intended peer-to-peer architecture. Instead of
-depending on a central service, the Freedombox will give everyone
-control over their own basic infrastructure.</p>
-
-<p>I've intended to join the effort since then, but other tasks have
-taken priority. But this summers nasty news about the misuse of trust
-and privilege exercised by the "western" intelligence gathering
-communities increased my eagerness to contribute to a point where I
-actually started working on the project a while back.</p>
-
-<p>The <a href="https://alioth.debian.org/projects/freedombox/">initial
-Debian initiative</a> based on the vision from Eben Moglen, is to
-create a simple and cheap Debian based appliance that anyone can hook
-up in their home and get access to secure and private services and
-communication. The initial deployment platform have been the
-<a href="http://www.globalscaletechnologies.com/t-dreamplugdetails.aspx">Dreamplug</a>,
-which is a piece of hardware I do not own. So to be able to test what
-the current Freedombox setup look like, I had to come up with a way to install
-it on some hardware I do have access to. I have rewritten the
-<a href="https://github.com/NickDaly/freedom-maker">freedom-maker</a>
-image build framework to use .deb packages instead of only copying
-setup into the boot images, and thanks to this rewrite I am able to
-set up any machine supported by Debian Wheezy as a Freedombox, using
-the previously mentioned deb (and a few support debs for packages
-missing in Debian).</p>
-
-<p>The current Freedombox setup consist of a set of bootstrapping
-scripts
-(<a href="https://github.com/petterreinholdtsen/freedombox-setup">freedombox-setup</a>),
-and a administrative web interface
-(<a href="https://github.com/NickDaly/Plinth">plinth</a> + exmachina +
-withsqlite), as well as a privacy enhancing proxy based on
-<a href="http://packages.qa.debian.org/privoxy">privoxy</a>
-(freedombox-privoxy). There is also a web/javascript based XMPP
-client (<a href="http://packages.qa.debian.org/jwchat">jwchat</a>)
-trying (unsuccessfully so far) to talk to the XMPP server
-(<a href="http://packages.qa.debian.org/ejabberd">ejabberd</a>). The
-web interface is pluggable, and the goal is to use it to enable OpenID
-services, mesh network connectivity, use of TOR, etc, etc. Not much of
-this is really working yet, see
-<a href="https://github.com/NickDaly/freedombox-todos/blob/master/TODO">the
-project TODO</a> for links to GIT repositories. Most of the code is
-on github at the moment. The HTTP proxy is operational out of the
-box, and the admin web interface can be used to add/remove plinth
-users. I've not been able to do anything else with it so far, but
-know there are several branches spread around github and other places
-with lots of half baked features.</p>
-
-<p>Anyway, if you want to have a look at the current state, the
-following recipes should work to give you a test machine to poke
-at.</p>
-
-<p><strong>Debian Wheezy amd64</strong></p>
-
-<ol>
-
-<li>Fetch normal Debian Wheezy installation ISO.</li>
-<li>Boot from it, either as CD or USB stick.</li>
-<li><p>Press [tab] on the boot prompt and add this as a boot argument
-to the Debian installer:<p>
-<pre>url=<a href="http://www.reinholdtsen.name/freedombox/preseed-wheezy.dat">http://www.reinholdtsen.name/freedombox/preseed-wheezy.dat</a></pre></li>
-
-<li>Answer the few language/region/password questions and pick disk to
-install on.</li>
-
-<li>When the installation is finished and the machine have rebooted a
-few times, your Freedombox is ready for testing.</li>
-
-</ol>
-
-<p><strong>Raspberry Pi Raspbian</strong></p>
-
-<ol>
-
-<li>Fetch a Raspbian SD card image, create SD card.</li>
-<li>Boot from SD card, extend file system to fill the card completely.</li>
-<li><p>Log in and add this to /etc/sources.list:</p>
-<pre>
-deb <a href="http://www.reinholdtsen.name/freedombox/">http://www.reinholdtsen.name/freedombox</a> wheezy main
-</pre></li>
-<li><p>Run this as root:</p>
-<pre>
-wget -O - http://www.reinholdtsen.name/freedombox/BE1A583D.asc | \
- apt-key add -
-apt-get update
-apt-get install freedombox-setup
-/usr/lib/freedombox/setup
-</pre></li>
-<li>Reboot into your freshly created Freedombox.</li>
-
-</ol>
-
-<p>You can test it on other architectures too, but because the
-freedombox-privoxy package is binary, it will only work as intended on
-the architectures where I have had time to build the binary and put it
-in my APT repository. But do not let this stop you. It is only a
-short "<tt>apt-get source -b freedombox-privoxy</tt>" away. :)</p>
-
-<p>Note that by default Freedombox is a DHCP server on the
-192.168.1.0/24 subnet, so if this is your subnet be careful and turn
-off the DHCP server by running "<tt>update-rc.d isc-dhcp-server
-disable</tt>" as root.</p>
-
-<p>Please let me know if this works for you, or if you have any
-problems. We gather on the IRC channel
-<a href="irc://irc.debian.org:6667/%23freedombox">#freedombox</a> on
-irc.debian.org and the
-<a href="http://lists.alioth.debian.org/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/freedombox-discuss">project
-mailing list</a>.</p>
-
-<p>Once you get your freedombox operational, you can visit
-<tt>http://your-host-name:8001/</tt> to see the state of the plint
-welcome screen (dead end - do not be surprised if you are unable to
-get past it), and next visit <tt>http://your-host-name:8001/help/</tt>
-to look at the rest of plinth. The default user is 'admin' and the
-default password is 'secret'.</p>

-år hvor alle som bærer på en mobiltelefon befinner seg, hvem de
-snakker med og hvor lenge de snakket sammen. Det skal også
-registreres hvem de sendte SMS-meldinger til, hvem en har sendt epost
-til, og hvilke nett-tjenere en besøkte. Saken er kjent som
-<a href="http://beta.holderdeord.no/issues/innfore-datalagringsdirektivet">Datalagringsdirektivet
-(DLD)</a>, og innebærer at alle innbyggerne og andre innenfor Norges
-grenser overvåkes døgnet rundt. Det ble i praksis innført brev og
-besøkskontroll av hele befolkningen. Rapporter fra de landene som
-allerede har innført slik total lagring av borgernes
-kommunikasjonsmønstre forteller at det ikke hjelper i
-kriminalitetsbekjempelsen. Den norske prislappen blir mange hundre
-millioner, uten at det ser ut til å bidra positivt til politiets
-arbeide. Jeg synes flere hundre millioner i stedet burde vært brukt
-på noe som kan dokumenteres å ha effekt i kriminalitetsbekjempelsen.

-
-<p>Hva er problemet, tenkter du kanskje? Et åpenbart problem er at
-medienes kildevern i praksis blir radert ut. Den innsamlede
-informasjonen gjør det mulig å finne ut hvem som har snakket med
-journalister på telefon, SMS og epost, og hvem som har vært i nærheten
-av journalister så sant begge bar med seg en telefon. Et annet er at
-advokatvernet blir sterkt redusert, der politiet kan finne ut hvem
-som har snakket med en advokat når, eller vært i møter en med advokat.
-Et tredje er at svært personlig informasjon kan avledes fra hvilke
-nettsteder en har besøkt. Har en besøkt hivnorge.no,
-swingersnorge.com eller andre sider som kan brukes til avlede
-interesser som hører til privatsfæren, vil denne informasjonen være
-tilgjengelig takket være datalagringsdirektivet.</p>

-<p>De fleste partiene var mot, kun to partier stemte for. Høyre og
-Arbeiderpartiet. Og både Høyre og Arbeiderpartiet i Oslo har
-DLD-forkjempere på toppen av sine lister (har ikke sjekket de andre
-fylkene). Det er dermed helt uaktuelt for meg å stemme på disse
-partiene. Her er oversikten over partienes valglister i Oslo, med
-informasjon om hvem som stemte hva i første DLD-votering i Stortinget,
-basert på informasjon fra mine venner i

+ <div class="date">26th September 2014</div>
+ <div class="body"><p>The <a href="http://www.skolelinux.org/">Debian Edu / Skolelinux
+project</a> provide a Linux solution for schools, including a
+powerful desktop with education software, a central server providing
+web pages, user database, user home directories, central login and PXE
+boot of both clients without disk and the installation to install Debian
+Edu on machines with disk (and a few other services perhaps to small
+to mention here). We in the Debian Edu team are currently working on
+the Jessie based version, trying to get everything in shape before the
+freeze, to avoid having to maintain our own package repository in the
+future. The
+<a href="https://wiki.debian.org/DebianEdu/Status/Jessie">current
+status</a> can be seen on the Debian wiki, and there is still heaps of
+work left. Some fatal problems block testing, breaking the installer,
+but it is possible to work around these to get anyway. Here is a
+recipe on how to get the installation limping along.</p>
+
+<p>First, download the test ISO via
+<a href="ftp://ftp.skolelinux.no/cd-edu-testing-nolocal-netinst/debian-edu-amd64-i386-NETINST-1.iso">ftp</a>,
+<a href="http://ftp.skolelinux.no/cd-edu-testing-nolocal-netinst/debian-edu-amd64-i386-NETINST-1.iso">http</a>
+or rsync (use
+ftp.skolelinux.org::cd-edu-testing-nolocal-netinst/debian-edu-amd64-i386-NETINST-1.iso).
+The ISO build was broken on Tuesday, so we do not get a new ISO every
+12 hours or so, but thankfully the ISO we already got we are able to
+install with some tweaking.</p>
+
+<p>When you get to the Debian Edu profile question, go to tty2
+(use Alt-Ctrl-F2), run</p>
+
+<p><blockquote><pre>
+nano /usr/bin/edu-eatmydata-install
+</pre></blockquote></p>
+
+<p>and add 'exit 0' as the second line, disabling the eatmydata
+optimization. Return to the installation, select the profile you want
+and continue. Without this change, exim4-config will fail to install
+due to a known bug in eatmydata.</p>
+
+<p>When you get the grub question at the end, answer /dev/sda (or if
+this do not work, figure out what your correct value would be. All my
+test machines need /dev/sda, so I have no advice if it do not fit
+your need.</p>
+
+<p>If you installed a profile including a graphical desktop, log in as
+root after the initial boot from hard drive, and install the
+education-desktop-XXX metapackage. XXX can be kde, gnome, lxde, xfce
+or mate. If you want several desktop options, install more than one
+metapackage. Once this is done, reboot and you should have a working
+graphical login screen. This workaround should no longer be needed
+once the education-tasks package version 1.801 enter testing in two
+days.</p>
+
+<p>I believe the ISO build will start working on two days when the new
+tasksel package enter testing and Steve McIntyre get a chance to
+update the debian-cd git repository. The eatmydata, grub and desktop
+issues are already fixed in unstable and testing, and should show up
+on the ISO as soon as the ISO build start working again. Well the
+eatmydata optimization is really just disabled. The proper fix
+require an upload by the eatmydata maintainer applying the patch
+provided in bug <a href="https://bugs.debian.org/702711">#702711</a>.
+The rest have proper fixes in unstable.</p>
+
+<p>I hope this get you going with the installation testing, as we are
+quickly running out of time trying to get our Jessie based
+installation ready before the distribution freeze in a month.</p>

- <div class="date">22nd August 2013</div>
- <div class="body"><p>The second wheezy based beta release of Debian Edu was wrapped up
-today, slightly delayed because of some bugs in the initial Windows
-integration fixes . This is the release announcement:</p>
-
-<p><strong>New features for Debian Edu 7.1+edu0~b1 released 2013-08-22</strong></p>
-
-<p>These are the release notes for Debian Edu / Skolelinux
-7.1+edu0~b1, based on Debian with codename "Wheezy".</p>
-
-<p><strong>About Debian Edu and Skolelinux</strong></p>
-
-<p><a href="http://www.skolelinux.org/">Debian Edu, also known as
-Skolelinux</a>, is a Linux distribution based on Debian providing an
-out-of-the box environment of a completely configured school
-network. Immediately after installation a school server running all
-services needed for a school network is set up just waiting for users
-and machines being added via GOsa², a comfortable Web-UI. A netbooting
-environment is prepared using PXE, so after initial installation of
-the main server from CD or USB stick all other machines can be
-installed via the network. The provided school server provides LDAP
-database and Kerberos authentication service, centralized home
-directories, DHCP server, web proxy and many other services. The
-desktop contains
-<a href="http://people.skolelinux.org/pere/blog/Educational_applications_included_in_Debian_Edu___Skolelinux__the_screenshot_collection____.html">more
-than 60 educational software packages</a> and more are available from
-the Debian archive, and schools can choose between KDE, Gnome, LXDE
-and Xfce desktop environment.</p>
-
-<p>This is the sixth test release based on Debian Wheezy. Basically this
-is an updated and slightly improved version compared to the Squeeze
-release.</p>
-
-<p>ALERT: Alpha based installations should reinstall or downgrade the
-versions of gosa and libpam-mklocaluser to the ones used in this beta
-release. Both alpha and beta0 based installations should reinstall or
-deal with gosa.conf manually; there are two options: (1) Keep
-gosa.conf and edit this file as outlined
-<a href="http://lists.debian.org/debian-edu/2013/08/msg00127.html">on
-the mailing list</a>. (2) Accept the new version of gosa.conf and
-replace both contained admin password placeholders with the password
-hashes found in the old one (backup copy!). In both cases every user
-need to change their their password to make sure a password is set for
-CIFS access to their home directory.</p>
-
-<p><strong>Software updates</strong></p>
-
-<ul>
-
-<li>Added ssh askpass packages to default installation, to ensure ssh
- work also without a attached tty.</li>
-<li>Add the command-not-found package to the default installation to
- make it easier to figure out where to find missing command line
- tools. Please note, that the command 'update-command-not-found'
- has to be run as root to actually make it useful (internet access
- required).</li>
-
-</ul>
-
-<p><strong>Other changes</strong></p>
-
-<ul>
-
-<li>Adjusted the USB stick ISO image build to include every tool
-needed for desktop=xfce installations.</li>
-<li>Adjust thin-client-server task to work when installing from USB
-stick ISO image.</li>
-<li>Made new grub artwork (changed png from indexed to RGB format).</li>
-<li>Minor cleanup in the CUPS setup.</li>
-<li>Make sure that bootstrapping of the Samba domain really happens
- during installation of the main server and adjust SID handling to
- cope with this.</li>
-<li>Make Samba passwords changeable (again) via GOsa².</li>
-<li>Fix generation of LM and NT password hashes via GOsa² to avoid
- empty password hashes.</li>
-<li>Adapted Samba machine domain joining to latest change in the
- smbldap-tools Perl package, fixing bugs blocking Windows machines
- from joining the Samba domain.</li>
-
-</ul>
-
-<p><strong>Known issues</strong></p>
-
-<ul>
-
-<li>KDE fails to understand the wpad.dat file provided, causing it to
- not use the http proxy as it should.</li>
-<li>Chromium also fails to use the proxy when using the KDE desktop
- (using the KDE configuration).</li>

+ <div class="date">25th September 2014</div>
+ <div class="body"><p>I use the <a href="https://sourceforge.net/p/lsdvd/">lsdvd tool</a>
+to handle my fairly large DVD collection. It is a nice command line
+tool to get details about a DVD, like title, tracks, track length,
+etc, in XML, Perl or human readable format. But lsdvd have not seen
+any new development since 2006 and had a few irritating bugs affecting
+its use with some DVDs. Upstream seemed to be dead, and in January I
+sent a small probe asking for a version control repository for the
+project, without any reply. But I use it regularly and would like to
+get <a href="https://packages.qa.debian.org/lsdvd">an updated version
+into Debian</a>. So two weeks ago I tried harder to get in touch with
+the project admin, and after getting a reply from him explaining that
+he was no longer interested in the project, I asked if I could take
+over. And yesterday, I became project admin.</p>
+
+<p>I've been in touch with a Gentoo developer and the Debian
+maintainer interested in joining forces to maintain the upstream
+project, and I hope we can get a new release out fairly quickly,
+collecting the patches spread around on the internet into on place.
+I've added the relevant Debian patches to the freshly created git
+repository, and expect the Gentoo patches to make it too. If you got
+a DVD collection and care about command line tools, check out
+<a href="https://sourceforge.net/p/lsdvd/git/ci/master/tree/">the git source</a> and join
+<a href="https://sourceforge.net/p/lsdvd/mailman/">the project mailing
+list</a>. :)</p>

-<a href="https://downloadcenter.intel.com/Detail_Desc.aspx?agr=Y&ProdId=3472&DwnldID=18363&ProductFamily=Solid-State+Drives+and+Caching&ProductLine=Intel%c2%ae+High+Performance+Solid-State+Drive&ProductProduct=Intel%c2%ae+SSD+520+Series+(180GB%2c+2.5in+SATA+6Gb%2fs%2c+25nm%2c+MLC)&lang=eng">issdfut_2.0.4.iso</a>
-(aka Intel SATA Solid-State Drive Firmware Update Tool) which
-according to the site should contain the latest firmware for SSD
-disks. I inserted the broken disk in one of my spare laptops and
-booted the ISO from a USB stick. The disk was recognized, but the
-program claimed the newest firmware already were installed and refused
-to insert any Intel firmware. So no change, and the disk is still
-unable to handle write load. :( I guess the only way to get them
-working would be if Lenovo releases new firmware. No idea how likely
-that is. Anyway, just blogging about this test for completeness. I
-got a working Samsung disk, and see no point in spending more time on
-the broken disks.</p>

+ <div class="date">21st September 2014</div>
+ <div class="body"><p>Rundt omkring i Oslo og Østlandsområdet henger det bokser over
+veiene som jeg har lurt på hva gjør. De har ut fra plassering og
+vinkling sett ut som bokser som sniffer ut et eller annet fra
+forbipasserende trafikk, men det har vært uklart for meg hva det er de
+leser av. Her om dagen tok jeg bilde av en slik boks som henger under
+<a href="http://www.openstreetmap.no/?zoom=19&mlat=59.96396&mlon=10.34443&layers=B00000">ei

+
+<p>Boksen er tydelig merket «Kapsch >>>», logoen til
+<a href="http://www.kapsch.net/">det sveitsiske selskapet Kapsch</a> som
+blant annet lager sensorsystemer for veitrafikk. Men de lager mye
+forskjellig, og jeg kjente ikke igjen boksen på utseendet etter en
+kjapp titt på produktlista til selskapet.</p>
+
+<p>I og med at boksen henger over veien E16, en riksvei vedlikeholdt
+av Statens Vegvesen, så antok jeg at det burde være mulig å bruke
+REST-API-et som gir tilgang til vegvesenets database over veier,
+skilter og annet veirelatert til å finne ut hva i alle dager dette
+kunne være. De har både
+<a href="https://www.vegvesen.no/nvdb/api/dokumentasjon/datakatalog">en
+datakatalog</a> og
+<a href="https://www.vegvesen.no/nvdb/api/dokumentasjon/sok">et
+søk</a>, der en kan søke etter ulike typer oppføringer innen for et
+gitt geografisk område. Jeg laget et enkelt shell-script for å hente
+ut antall av en gitt type innenfor området skibrua dekker, og listet
+opp navnet på typene som ble funnet. Orket ikke slå opp hvordan
+URL-koding av aktuelle strenger kunne gjøres mer generisk, og brukte
+en stygg sed-linje i stedet.</p>
+
+<blockquote><pre>

+
+<p>Av disse ser ID 775 og 862 mest relevant ut. ID 775 antar jeg
+refererer til fotoboksen som står like ved brua, mens
+«Reisetidsregistreringspunkt» kanskje kan være boksen som henger der.
+Hvordan finner jeg så ut hva dette kan være for noe. En titt på
+<a href="http://labs.vegdata.no/nvdb-datakatalog/862-Reisetidsregistreringspunkt/">datakatalogsiden
+for ID 862/Reisetidsregistreringspunkt</a> viser at det er finnes 53
+slike målere i Norge, og hvor de er plassert, men gir ellers få
+detaljer. Det er plassert 40 på østlandet og 13 i Trondheimsregionen.
+Men siden nevner «AutoPASS», og hvis en slår opp oppføringen på
+Sollihøgda nevner den «Ciber AS» som ID for eksternt system. (Kan det
+være snakk om
+<a href="http://www.proff.no/selskap/ciber-norge-as/oslo/internettdesign-og-programmering/Z0I3KMF4/">Ciber
+Norge AS</a>, et selskap eid av Ciber Europe Bv?) Et nettsøk på
+ «Ciber AS autopass» fører meg til en artikkel fra NRK Trøndelag i
+ 2013 med tittel
+«<a href="http://www.nrk.no/trondelag/sjekk-dette-hvis-du-vil-unnga-ko-1.11327947">Sjekk
+dette hvis du vil unngå kø</a>». Artikkelen henviser til vegvesenets
+nettside
+<a href="http://www.reisetider.no/reisetid/forside.html">reisetider.no</a>
+som har en
+<a href="http://www.reisetider.no/reisetid/omrade.html?omrade=5">kartside
+for Østlandet</a> som viser at det måles mellom Sandvika og Sollihøgda.
+Det kan dermed se ut til at jeg har funnet ut hva boksene gjør.</p>
+
+<p>Hvis det stemmer, så er dette bokser som leser av AutoPASS-ID-en
+til alle passerende biler med AutoPASS-brikke, og dermed gjør det mulig
+for de som kontrollerer boksene å holde rede på hvor en gitt bil er
+når den passerte et slikt målepunkt. NRK-artikkelen forteller at
+denne informasjonen i dag kun brukes til å koble to
+AutoPASS-brikkepasseringer passeringer sammen for å beregne
+reisetiden, og at bruken er godkjent av Datatilsynet. Det er desverre
+ikke mulig for en sjåfør som passerer under en slik boks å kontrollere
+at AutoPASS-ID-en kun brukes til dette i dag og i fremtiden.</p>
+
+<p>I tillegg til denne type AutoPASS-sniffere vet jeg at det også
+finnes mange automatiske stasjoner som tar betalt pr. passering (aka
+bomstasjoner), og der lagres informasjon om tid, sted og bilnummer i
+10 år. Finnes det andre slike sniffere plassert ut på veiene?</p>
+
+<p>Personlig har jeg valgt å ikke bruke AutoPASS-brikke, for å gjøre
+det vanskeligere og mer kostbart for de som vil invadere privatsfæren
+og holde rede på hvor bilen min beveger seg til enhver tid. Jeg håper
+flere vil gjøre det samme, selv om det gir litt høyere private
+utgifter (dyrere bompassering). Vern om privatsfæren koster i disse
+dager.</p>
+
+<p>Takk til Jan Kristian Jensen i Statens Vegvesen for tips om
+dokumentasjon på vegvesenets REST-API.</p>

- <div class="date"> 2nd August 2013</div>
- <div class="body"><p>It has been a while since my last update. Since last summer, I
-have worked on a Norwegian
-<a href="http://www.docbook.org/">docbook</a> version of the 2004 book
-<a href="http://free-culture.cc/">Free Culture</a> by Lawrence Lessig,
-to get a Norwegian text explaining the problems with the copyright
-law. Yesterday, I finally broken the 90% mark, when counting the
-number of strings to translate. Due to real life constraints, I have
-not had time to work on it since March, but when the summer broke out,
-I found time to work on it again. Still lots of work left, but the
-first draft is nearing completion. I created a graph to show the
-progress of the translation:</p>
-
-<p><img width="80%" align="center" src="https://github.com/petterreinholdtsen/free-culture-lessig/raw/master/progress.png"></p>
-
-<p>When the first draft is done, the translated text need to be
-proof read, and the remaining formatting problems with images and SVG
-drawings need to be fixed. There are probably also some index entries
-missing that need to be added. This can be done by comparing the
-index entries listed in the SiSU version of the book, or comparing the
-English docbook version with the paper version. Last, the colophon
-page with ISBN numbers etc need to be wrapped up before the release is
-done. I should also figure out how to get correct Norwegian sorting
-of the index pages. All docbook tools I have tried so far (xmlto,
-docbook-xsl, dblatex) get the order of symbols and the special
-Norwegian letters ÆØÅ wrong.</p>
-
-<p>There is still need for translators and people with docbook
-knowledge, to be able to get a good looking book (I still struggle
-with dblatex, xmlto and docbook-xsl) as well as to do the draft
-translation and proof reading. And I would like the figures to be
-redrawn as SVGs to make it easy to translate them. Any SVG master
-around? There are also some legal terms that are unfamiliar to me.
-If you want to help, please get in touch with me, and check out the
-project files currently available from
-<a href="https://github.com/petterreinholdtsen/free-culture-lessig">github</a>.</p>
-
-<p>If you are curious what the translated book currently look like,
-the updated

-and
-<a href="https://github.com/petterreinholdtsen/free-culture-lessig/blob/master/archive/freeculture.nb.epub?raw=true">EPUB</a>
-are published on github. The HTML version is published as well, but
-github hand it out with MIME type text/plain, confusing browsers, so I
-saw no point in linking to that version.</p>

+ <div class="date">16th September 2014</div>
+ <div class="body"><p>The <a href="https://www.debian.org/">Debian</a> installer could be
+a lot quicker. When we install more than 2000 packages in
+<a href="http://www.skolelinux.org/">Skolelinux / Debian Edu</a> using
+tasksel in the installer, unpacking the binary packages take forever.
+A part of the slow I/O issue was discussed in
+<a href="https://bugs.debian.org/613428">bug #613428</a> about too
+much file system sync-ing done by dpkg, which is the package
+responsible for unpacking the binary packages. Other parts (like code
+executed by postinst scripts) might also sync to disk during
+installation. All this sync-ing to disk do not really make sense to
+me. If the machine crash half-way through, I start over, I do not try
+to salvage the half installed system. So the failure sync-ing is
+supposed to protect against, hardware or system crash, is not really
+relevant while the installer is running.</p>
+
+<p>A few days ago, I thought of a way to get rid of all the file
+system sync()-ing in a fairly non-intrusive way, without the need to
+change the code in several packages. The idea is not new, but I have
+not heard anyone propose the approach using dpkg-divert before. It
+depend on the small and clever package
+<a href="https://packages.qa.debian.org/eatmydata">eatmydata</a>, which
+uses LD_PRELOAD to replace the system functions for syncing data to
+disk with functions doing nothing, thus allowing programs to live
+dangerous while speeding up disk I/O significantly. Instead of
+modifying the implementation of dpkg, apt and tasksel (which are the
+packages responsible for selecting, fetching and installing packages),
+it occurred to me that we could just divert the programs away, replace
+them with a simple shell wrapper calling
+"eatmydata $program $@", to get the same effect.
+Two days ago I decided to test the idea, and wrapped up a simple
+implementation for the Debian Edu udeb.</p>
+
+<p>The effect was stunning. In my first test it reduced the running
+time of the pkgsel step (installing tasks) from 64 to less than 44
+minutes (20 minutes shaved off the installation) on an old Dell
+Latitude D505 machine. I am not quite sure what the optimised time
+would have been, as I messed up the testing a bit, causing the debconf
+priority to get low enough for two questions to pop up during
+installation. As soon as I saw the questions I moved the installation
+along, but do not know how long the question were holding up the
+installation. I did some more measurements using Debian Edu Jessie,
+and got these results. The time measured is the time stamp in
+/var/log/syslog between the "pkgsel: starting tasksel" and the
+"pkgsel: finishing up" lines, if you want to do the same measurement
+yourself. In Debian Edu, the tasksel dialog do not show up, and the
+timing thus do not depend on how quickly the user handle the tasksel
+dialog.</p>
+
+<p><table>
+

+<th>Machine/setup</th>

+<th>Optimised tasksel</th>

+</tr>
+
+</table></p>
+
+<p>The test is done using a netinst ISO on a USB stick, so some of the
+time is spent downloading packages. The connection to the Internet
+was 100Mbit/s during testing, so downloading should not be a
+significant factor in the measurement. Download typically took a few
+seconds to a few minutes, depending on the amount of packages being
+installed.</p>
+
+<p>The speedup is implemented by using two hooks in
+<a href="https://www.debian.org/devel/debian-installer/">Debian
+Installer</a>, the pre-pkgsel.d hook to set up the diverts, and the
+finish-install.d hook to remove the divert at the end of the
+installation. I picked the pre-pkgsel.d hook instead of the
+post-base-installer.d hook because I test using an ISO without the
+eatmydata package included, and the post-base-installer.d hook in
+Debian Edu can only operate on packages included in the ISO. The
+negative effect of this is that I am unable to activate this
+optimization for the kernel installation step in d-i. If the code is
+moved to the post-base-installer.d hook, the speedup would be larger
+for the entire installation.</p>
+
+<p>I've implemented this in the
+<a href="https://packages.qa.debian.org/debian-edu-install">debian-edu-install</a>
+git repository, and plan to provide the optimization as part of the
+Debian Edu installation. If you want to test this yourself, you can
+create two files in the installer (or in an udeb). One shell script
+need do go into /usr/lib/pre-pkgsel.d/, with content like this:</p>
+
+<p><blockquote><pre>
+#!/bin/sh
+set -e
+. /usr/share/debconf/confmodule
+info() {
+ logger -t my-pkgsel "info: $*"
+}
+error() {
+ logger -t my-pkgsel "error: $*"
+}
+override_install() {
+ apt-install eatmydata || true
+ if [ -x /target/usr/bin/eatmydata ] ; then
+ for bin in dpkg apt-get aptitude tasksel ; do
+ file=/usr/bin/$bin
+ # Test that the file exist and have not been diverted already.
+ if [ -f /target$file ] ; then
+ info "diverting $file using eatmydata"
+ printf "#!/bin/sh\neatmydata $bin.distrib \"\$@\"\n" \
+ > /target$file.edu
+ chmod 755 /target$file.edu
+ in-target dpkg-divert --package debian-edu-config \
+ --rename --quiet --add $file
+ ln -sf ./$bin.edu /target$file
+ else
+ error "unable to divert $file, as it is missing."
+ fi
+ done
+ else
+ error "unable to find /usr/bin/eatmydata after installing the eatmydata pacage"
+ fi
+}
+
+override_install
+</pre></blockquote></p>
+
+<p>To clean up, another shell script should go into
+/usr/lib/finish-install.d/ with code like this:
+
+<p><blockquote><pre>
+#! /bin/sh -e
+. /usr/share/debconf/confmodule
+error() {
+ logger -t my-finish-install "error: $@"
+}
+remove_install_override() {
+ for bin in dpkg apt-get aptitude tasksel ; do
+ file=/usr/bin/$bin
+ if [ -x /target$file.edu ] ; then
+ rm /target$file
+ in-target dpkg-divert --package debian-edu-config \
+ --rename --quiet --remove $file
+ rm /target$file.edu
+ else
+ error "Missing divert for $file."
+ fi
+ done
+ sync # Flush file buffers before continuing
+}
+
+remove_install_override
+</pre></blockquote></p>
+
+<p>In Debian Edu, I placed both code fragments in a separate script
+edu-eatmydata-install and call it from the pre-pkgsel.d and
+finish-install.d scripts.</p>
+
+<p>By now you might ask if this change should get into the normal
+Debian installer too? I suspect it should, but am not sure the
+current debian-installer coordinators find it useful enough. It also
+depend on the side effects of the change. I'm not aware of any, but I
+guess we will see if the change is safe after some more testing.
+Perhaps there is some package in Debian depending on sync() and
+fsync() having effect? Perhaps it should go into its own udeb, to
+allow those of us wanting to enable it to do so without affecting
+everyone.</p>
+
+<p>Update 2014-09-24: Since a few days ago, enabling this optimization
+will break installation of all programs using gnutls because of
+<a href="https://bugs.debian.org/702711">bug #702711</a>. An updated
+eatmydata package in Debian will solve it.</p>
+
+<p>Update 2014-10-17: The bug mentioned above is fixed in testing and
+the optimization work again. And I have discovered that the
+dpkg-divert trick is not really needed and implemented a slightly
+simpler approach as part of the debian-edu-install package. See
+tools/edu-eatmydata-install in the source package.</p>
