Can anyone recommend a command line program that could tell me
the length of the video stream in a .avi or .mpg file ? Thanks
in advance.

Thanks for the suggestions folks but there's not much to see
there, no packages are pinned.
I've made some progress, though. A closer look at the output
reveals
After apt-get update, attempting to install ntp tries to
download version 1:4.2.8p10+dfsg-3+deb9u1 and fails. It tries
to download +deb9u1 because

and it fails because the version of the packag

Did you strace -f to confirm that EEXIST is indeed set by
execve() ?

"Debian vide infra" ? What's that ?
Careful, it looks like your mailer breaks threading.

Strange indeed. You could try adding an insulation layer between
systemd and your script by setting ExecStart to a C program that

Chris F A Johnson has written two books on the subject. Haven't

When you install Debian on a PC, you get one line in
/etc/udev/rules.d/70-persistent-net.rules for each ethernet
adapter present.
If you add a network adapter after installation,
70-persistent-net.rules needs updating. Is there a program that
can do it for you ?

How is Debian better off from Microsoft porting apt to Windows ?

In bash, typing, say, "ls x*y" then tab lists all the possible
expansions of "x*y" on the next line, then prints the command
line anew with "x*y" replaced by longest common stem.
With bash-completion installed, "x*y" is summarily replaced by
its first match.
Is there any way to restore the normal
16 matches
