An APT Debian repository containing all the Bunsen packages is now online and available to all users.
>>> Click here for configuration instructions <<<
>>> Click here to see the repo contents <<<
The packages it contains are snapshots from git and therefore release candidates. Users who will be using the repository at the time of the official release however will get automatically upgraded to the release version.
We have moved to our official bunsenlabs.org domain and thus the repository's URL has changed. From now on, please use the following APT configuration:
deb http://pkg.bunsenlabs.org/debian bunsen-hydrogen main
We also have a jessie-backports repo with a couple of (obviously) backported packages; please view the repository index for a complete list:
deb http://pkg.bunsenlabs.org/debian jessie-backports main

Our repository is being served from our distro server which is generously sponsored by the NetCup hosting company from Karlsruhe, Germany. Many thanks for the support.

yad has arrived in BL. damo is going to rewrite some of our scripts (or already has done so) to use it.

I think I'll keep zenity plugged in as well.
Although for personal use - I'm like damo, been using yad for a long time now.

All changes will be included in final release right ? Too bad that final version is scheduled days/weeks after new year ...
Offline
Yes.
Every user running BL is getting continuously updated by way of our package repository though, so you wouldn't miss out on anything if you were to just install from the last RC ISO.

With deep respect for all of the work, made the switch this evening.
Runs very smooth, added only (2) new packages.
Great work people!!

^Hey that sounds like me. The only difference is that I am running RC1 since quite a while now. Very smooth, very thankful for your hard work devs.

The ceni network manager is now available in its latest version 2015.07.06 in the BL jessie-backports repository. It is a simple, straightforward tool for managing network interfaces using the /etc/network/interfaces configuration interface, the standard way of doing networking on Debian machines.
A Curses user interface for configuring network interfaces with ifupdown.
Ceni can manage basic network interface ifupdown configuration stanzas for
ethernet and wireless devices.
Here are some pictures of the interface.
sudo apt-get update
sudo apt-get -t jessie-backports install ceni
The package has been imported from Siduction.
Per aspera ad astra.

^In case you missed my thanks in the Monthly Scrot thread...
Thanks!

If anyone is unclear on why or how they should switch from Network Manager to ceni, please post here. All shall be revealed.
Offline
I use to use ceni - awesome app. Others told me it didn't work for them. In fact I think I mentioned it in the early development days of BL. Unfortunately it's still not in the stable repos
Today I use no network manager at all: NetworkConfiguration - Debian Wiki but if I'm right 'ceni' is a CLI app that helps you do just that anyway.

The package bunsen-python-apt-template is now available in the official repositories.
In the past, people experienced problems with using programs like software-properties-gtk which are based on the python-apt library. Installing bunsen-python-apt-template resolves these issues by providing additional configuration files for this library.

Does it hurt anything if I keep the jessie main entries in my /etc/apt/sources.list below the newer updated bunsen-hydrogen main?
for example:
deb http://pkg.bunsenlabs.org/debian bunsen-hydrogen main
deb http://ftp.us.debian.org/debian jessie main
I assume that this file is read in list order, so if I search for something it'll hit the bunsen-hydro repos first, and then if not found there work it's way down...

Generally it is best not to make assumptions!
Menu -> Help -> Debian -> Debian Reference ---> Debian Package Management
By default, the bunsen-hydrogen entry is in /etc/apt/sources.list.d/bunsen.list. `apt-get update` should reload all the package info first, then it depends on versions and pinning what can be installed/upgraded.
Apt-get may frown a little if you have duplicate sources.

My god you are good... I literally ran the update command and got the "duplicates" warning. It's mind boggling how you all remember and know this system inside and out.Seriously how do you keep it all in your head? I find myself forgetting and drawing blanks even with stuff I studied and went over and over...

Constant reinforcement for me at least. I've been using Linux steadily now for at least 5 years. It ends up being a cumulative effect over time.

hehe true... I couldn't find this anywhere, but when you run an apt-get install or apt-cache, Where does apt look first? Does it check the separate /etc/apt/sources.list.d/ files first or the main /etc/apt/sources.list file? Does the order of which it checks first matter? Will that affect any versioning issues if you have an older repo in one place, but not the other?

Menu -> Help -> Debian -> Debian Reference ---> Debian Package Management
See "2.1.7. The event flow of the package management" for example.
And from
man sources.list
It is important to list sources in order of preference, with the most preferred source
listed first. Typically this will result in sorting by speed from fastest to slowest (CD-ROM
followed by hosts on a local network, followed by distant Internet hosts,

It checks the APT database at /var/lib/apt/lists that is created when you run `apt-get update`
That's why you have to run that command after adding or removing repositories.

Ooh I see... So the /etc/apt/sources.list and .../sources.list.d/ contain the pointers to the overall repos...
Then once updated each individual package IN eah of those repos is listed verbosely in /var/lib/apt/lists/...
I like how the files in there are human readable as well...very clean. And *NOW* I see where all of the info comes from when I go and run apt-get install, like the Size, and Dependencies...
Apt is pretty darn clever...
My last question is... I see under each individual package that it specifies the Filename, like:
Filename: pool/main/b/bunsen-configs/bunsen-configs_8.6.9-1_all.deb
How does it know to pre-pend the http://pkg.bunsenlabs.org/debian part of it? I don't see where that portion is provided.
