I haven't removed anything myself, but synaptic may have.. This is as it was rebooted 9 something days ago. Some of the directories have a nov 3 date, but the files range from 2012 to 2019 since touched according to mc. This is a very old but kept uptodate debian stretch install that is about to get bullseye installed by switching out the /dev/sda drive for a fresh SSD with a 2 Tbyte raid10 as /home. I think systemctl starts it normally but I don't have that critter figured out yet. And when I do issue a gracefull restart as sudo, /lib/systemd/system/apache2.service gracefull -bash: /lib/systemd/system/apache2.service: Permission denied its not executable -rw-r--r-- 1 root root 346 Oct 13 2019 apache2.service Now what? And thanks. Cheers, Gene Heskett. -- "There are four boxes to be used in defense of liberty: soap, ballot, jury, and ammo.
