""" pybcompgen

    Pybcompgen calculates context sensitive tab-completion data which is
    derived from environment bash system settings.  It doesn't need to know
    anything about whether you use /etc/completion or /etc/bash_completion.d,
    all that matters is whether *bash* knows about the completion.  The benefit
    of doing this are obvious: you get access to all the completion features
    that the system has installed without caring how the completion features
    work.  Note that this approach doesn't just work for things in the users

Upgrading a package, w/o upgrading dependencies that are already satisifed

with the following dependency relationships between their versioned distributions

• a-1

So let's consider a small business that runs a website that happens to run on GPL'd software. They don't know anything about the GPL but they paid a local web shop to set it up on their shared web host. They don't have to know that the GPL requires them to provide source code if they convey a copy because they don't convey

Let's say the same business runs a wwebsite that runs on AGPL software. They don't know anything about the AGPL but they paid a local web shop to set it up on their shared web host. What happens when someone requests a copy of the source? The answer will likely be "what's source code?"

The local business doesn't want to pay someone to get them the source. And we can't even tell them "give us the contents of directory holding the web site" because that might contain private configuration information which isn't covered by the AGPL.

This is why I don't normally recommend AGPL software to anyone unless they already understand licensing and source code.

Installing

Disable SecureBoot for the time being.

For booting my Archlinux kernel (4.3 series on the USB drive I made), I needed the following options:

nomodeset intel_pstates=no_hwp

You can edit the parameters by hitting the e key on the ArchISO boot option

Linux users: watch out for last-gen Intel Atom

Oops. They did it again.

It hit the market during the last few weeks. Last generation of Intel Atoms: CedarView (D2300, D2500, D2550, D2600, D2700) and Cedar Trail (N2600, N2700, N2800) SoCs integrate a PowerVR GPU from Imagination instead of the usual Intel GPU. If you remember the Poulsbo fiasco, it's the same. More or less.

An unsupported graphic card on Linux distributions, and which can't properly support a basic desktop environnment like Unity or Gnome 3.

To prevent this issue, Intel woke up MeeGo from the dead in last february [to add support for CedarView]

When are Python circular imports fatal?

In your Python package, you have:

• an __init__.py that designates this as a Python package
• a module_a.py, containing a function action_a() that references an attribute (like a function or variable) in module_b.py, and
• a module_b.py, containing a function action_b() that references an attribute (like a function or variable) in module_a.py.

This situation can introduce a circular import error: module_a attempts to import module_b, but can't, because module_b needs to import module_a, which is in the process of being interpreted.

But, sometimes Python is magic, and code that looks like it should cause this circular import error works just fine!
