I’m using Devuan ( systemd free ! ) :)

I believe my initramfs do not support luks encryption, but the link of @[email protected] might work… 🤞

Thanks @[email protected] ! indeed https://github.com/gitbls/sdm/blob/master/Docs/Disk-Encryption.md#the-sdm-cryptconfig-script seem what I need. I’ll try

ohh ! great ! I’ll see if I manage to install it on Devuan Thanks.

🤩 Woo I didn’t know nix. It seem a better way to handle package !!! but so if I have already apt that handle my packages, is it compatible to use both on the same system !?

Nix stores all packages in isolation from each other; as a result there are no /bin, /sbin, /lib or /usr directories and all packages are kept in /nix/store instead.

Yes, but it’s not reliable. because even if you use a bare linux vm to download the packages and dependency, you never know if the online will have already a dependence that the offline system do not have.

no, the only way is to force the dw of the already downloaded package.

Thank you very much @[email protected]

I have tried

apt-get -o Dir::Cache::archives="/to/path" install --download-only apt-offline

But it downloaded only the .deb of apt-offline and not all the dependence tree. Most probably because this machine have them already.

now, remain to force to download also all the dependency tree even if already installed…

indeed .appimage are an amazing thing as they do not require any special runtime or installation process !
I guess I will have to do my own .appimage of software that do not provide them

Thank you ! it works !

Actually this is working :

path/to/venv/bin/gunicorn A_Web_App:app

Some other poster, claim it’s dirty… but which problems could it generate ? (if any)

Thanks all !!!

I don’t want to make the venv portable…
I want to use the gunicorn that is installed in one venv accessible to other venv

AppImage !

• Open format? Yes
• Free format? Yes
• Fully Contained Single Executable Support . Like an exe file for Windows systems Yes (the only one)

Thank you very much @taaz

So you say 2 but with unix socket so it the same as my proposal number 3 ? no ?

I’ll check capabilities

indeed I need it to be scriptable.
