Bug#1041836: Version Correction

Bug#1041836: libc6 2.36-9+deb12u1 stack smashing on some but not all amd64
Package: libc6 Version: 2.36-9 Severity: critical Justification: breaks the whole system Dear Maintainer, Installing libc6_2.36-9+deb12u1_amd64.deb on some but not all systems results in every dynamically linked program dying with a spurious report of stack smashing. Getting back to a working system required use of busybox to get bash-static and also creating a fake perl as a shell script containing exit 0 (because /bin/true is dynamic) and then busybox again to wget and dpkg install the 2.36-9. I repeated this three times to be sure. Works OK on e.g. Intel(R) Xeon(R) CPU L5520 @ 2.27GHz Stack smashing on e.g. Intel(R) Core(TM) i7-8750H CPU @ 2.20GHz Preparing to unpack .../libc6_2.36-9+deb12u1_amd64.deb ...

Bug#934130: Followup
Hi Soren, Thank you for looking into this. Unfortunately I have almost no memory of this beyond what is in the bug report. Four years ago those were the missing dependencies. I am not at this time doing any qt-related development and so I do not know if this is still accurate. I guess you could do what I did back then - install qtwebengine5-examples in a minimal Debian VPS or chroot and then see what is needed to make the examples work. Best Wishes, --Mike
Bug#968698: libreoffice-calc: Scrolling a spreadsheet leaves a trail of "Row ..." tooltips
This also happens with TDE desktop with one slight difference. Instead of a bunch of complete "row" tooltips I get a bunch of fragments of "row" tooltips. This has been annoying me for a very long time. Thank you to Torbjörn Andersson for the workaround. Turning on Composite Extension in Xorg made no difference but doing that and then enabling the Trinity Window Composition Manager does clean up the mess. It appears that LibreOffice calc assumes compositing is enabled even when it is not. --Mike

Hi Dmitry, On Wed August 7 2019 11:27:00 Dmitry Shachnev wrote: > I agree with Lisandro that for many people it will be enough to just run > the examples, not (re-)compile them. The Qt examples are not like glxgears. They are fundamentally different. They are not to demonstrate how pretty Qt looks or how fast it runs. If their purpose was to demonstrate how pretty Qt looks there might be a dozen examples, not hundreds of examples covering every aspect of Qt programming. If their purpose was to demonstrate how pretty Qt looks there would not be source files and header files and project files and images and resources and every thing else needed to build ... except the dependencies. If someone wants to see Qt in action they can login to KDE. Qt is a tool for programmers. Qt examples are for programmers to build. When they don't build they are broken. Lisandro wrote: > Tell upstream that. It's the Qt build system that does exactly that: > provide compiled binaries. The orig.tar.xz do not include the precompiled binaries. Of course debuild can build the binaries with all the necessary dependencies installed, but it was Debian's decision to ship precompiled binaries in the Debian examples packages. That was not Qt's decision. And it was Debian's decision to ship the examples without the dependencies so they won't build for programmers even though they build for debuild. That is unkind! But just as an aside let's pretend for a moment that Lisandro is correct. Let's try running one of the precompiled binaries. Go ahead on a clean system and install qtwebview5-examples which is the package I just finished testing. Then: $ /usr/lib/x86_64-linux-gnu/qt5/examples/webview/minibrowser/minibrowser QQmlApplicationEngine failed to load component qrc:/main.qml:53 module "QtWebView" is not installed Sadly I don't have the time to file reports on all these examples runtime bugs. My goal is in a couple of weeks to document the problems preventing Qt examples from building, together with fixes that Qt programmers can use to work around the problems and that future DDs can use to fix the problems. > So we should not add these > dependencies, at most we can add some of these packages to Suggests. The necessary packages are not essential so they must be dependencies. That is the way Debian works. These packages are fundamentally broken without qt5-default and c++-compiler and make and an eclectic mix of auxiliary packages. Programmers should be able to install the examples packages and have them compile without hunting for missing dependencies. That's the whole point of using a distro. Nobody is going to install the examples unless they want to compile them. They is no joy in staring at an example widget that does nothing unless you actually intend to build upon it in your own programming. Or go ahead and run /usr/lib/x86_64-linux-gnu/qt5/examples/corelib/threads/waitconditions/waitconditions and tell me what you learned from merely running it. > But see below: > > On Mon, Aug 05, 2019 at 06:53:52AM -0700, Mike Bird wrote: > > A directory of files and several dependencies are missing from > > qtbase5-examples.

Debian internally should be exporting QT_SELECT=qt5 in debian/rules. That is correct and Debian does. But the lintian warning also assumes that qt5-default is a metapackage which if depended upon restricts users ability to uninstall stuff. But qt5-default depends only on qtbase5-dev and qtchooser. Yet qtbase5-dev depends on qtchooser, and qtchooser is not much use without qtbase5-dev or qtbase4-dev, so the lintian warning is inappropriate and should be removed or at least overridden for Qt5 examples.

The examples packages provide sources. Take a look! And this is as it should be. The examples are sources and project files for programmers to see examples of how to code and build Qt programs. If you provided binaries then people would have to make clean before they could build them, but they can't make clean on read-only binaries in /usr/lib/*/qt5/examples. And Qt is really designed for shadow builds rather than mixing binaries in with sources. Also to provide example binaries you're going to have to change hundreds of project files! Given the rate that new examples are added to Qt this would more than double your packaging work just modifying all the project files coming from upstream with every new minor version. And with your project files different from upstream your support load would increase too. > If someone wants to build the source then [s]he must install whatever > dependency is necessary. That would be ridiculous. It takes many days of effort to figure out all these missing dependencies. That's why I'm going through the effort of documenting these problems so some DD can (when so inclined) add the missing dependencies and fix the other packaging problems so the examples work as intended. Sometimes nothing more is needed than qt5-defaults, c++-compiler, and make. Sometimes a qtfoo5-dev is needed but sometimes it's libqt5foo5-dev instead. Sometimes additional dev packages are needed. Sometimes - as here with qtbase5-examples - there's also a problem in the packaging which makes resolving the problems much harder. Why should every programmer who wants to use Qt have to spend a couple of weeks figuring this out? That's what a distro such as Debian is for. Otherwise programmers would be better off using upstream. Qt examples are for getting programmers quickly into using Qt features, not an obstacle course that is not present upstream. Remember Debian is dividing a coherent upstream into hundreds of pieces that Qt programmers then have to reassemble into a coherent environment for their own work. > Also don't use qt5-defaults. That's a package that should have never > existed. Export QT_SELECT=qt5 , check qtchooser's man page. qt5-default should not be used internally for building Debian packages but it is a perfectly OK and indeed useful for examples packages and for programmers using Qt. Thanks for all that you and your team do but please bear in mind that programmers use Qt packages in many different ways than DDs focused on KDE. There are roughly 2500 KDE developers worldwide versus roughly a million Qt programmers. --Mike

Bug#934050: qtdeclarative5-examples: Many examples fail to compile - w/solution
Package: qtdeclarative5-examples
Version: 5.11.3-4
Severity: important
Tags: patch
There are three problems. Here they are with their fixes.
(1) Add the following miscellaneous dependencies:
qt5-default c++-compiler make qtdeclarative5-dev qtbase5-private-dev
(2) examples/qml/tutorials/extending-qml/chapter6-plugins/import/import.pro
uses OTHER_FILES which only works from qtcreator but not from qmake at
the command line. Change it to use DISTFILES. Line 25 will then look
like this without the quotes: "DISTFILES += qmldir".
(3) examples/quick/scenegraph/rendernode/ needs Direct 3D i.e. Windows or
Wine. Someone attempted to work around it in rendernode.pro but the
workaround is inadequate. Rendernode cannot be compiled without d3d12.
Therefore in examples/quick/scenegraph/scenegraph.pro we need to
make the inclusion of rendernode conditional on d3d12, and in order
to be able to test d3d12 we have to include the quick module.
A diff to accomplish this is attached.

Hi Lisandro, I thought it would be more useful to test 5.12 in experimental rather than 5.11 in Buster. However I belatedly discovered that qtcreator is not in experimental. Of possibly less importance to my testing the following also appear to be missing: qml-module-qt-labs-handlers qt5-doc qt5-doc-html ... and roughly 70 python qt packages. Is qtcreator likely to appear in experimental any time soon or should I test in 5.11? Thanks, --Mike

Thank you for the FAST and HELPFUL response which greatly increased the number of examples that would compile to (IIRC) 279. These are now the only six examples which I have been unable as yet to compile: qml/tutorials qt3d/3d-text quick/scenegraph vulkan/hellovulkancubes vulkan/hellovulkantriangle vulkan/hellovulkanwidget (1) I assume these are mostly due to nonfree dependencies but if you think any of these six should work please let me know and I will try harder and file bug reports if there seems to be a legitimate problem. (2) I'm pretty sure that some of the example packages were missing dependencies and required additional packages in order to compile. Would it be helpful or a waste of time if I cleaned up my system and then attempted to identify any such missing dependencies and file bug reports? Note: I'm running Buster, not experimental. --Mike
Bug#909306: qt3d5-dev: Qt53DExtrasConfig.cmake missing
I am returning to Qt programming after a long absence. Removing these files creates far more problems than are purportedly avoided. A significant fraction of the examples fail even to compile now. (Maybe the examples should be removed also?) Qt, and new concepts in Qt, are traditionally introduced by these examples. Broken examples make for a very unsatisfying experience. We know some APIs are unstable but we need to use them. And we would like the examples to work as they always do upstream. I tried to rebuild the broken packages locally but the files are even removed from the source package so I cannot simply undo a broken patch. I now have to uninstall Debian's Qt and start over with a working Qt from upstream. Please undo this removal. Debian packaging can add a lot of value to upstream software, when it doesn't take away more than it adds. --Mike
Bug#932619: mailman deliberately broken on non-systemd systems

Version: 1:2.1.29-1
Severity: important
Buster mail removes /etc/init.d/mailman.
Restoring /etc/init.d/mailman from stretch, for those lucky enough to
have a backup, restores the functionality.
The fix is simple - restore this critical file that you have deleted
from our servers without even asking permission!
For those who don't have a backup, a copy is attached.

However if I ask for only 1 extent the lvextend works with sda6
but still segfaults with sdb6.
Tried all alloc policies - no change.
Tried --noudevsync - no change.
Tried creating new empty /etc/lvm/{backup,archive} - no change.
The segfault occurs even with -t.
Here's the last part of -vvv output before the segfault. The
leaving 0 seems to be an unrelated logging error as it is also
shown when lvextend is successful

If you need more info pls let me know. Backuping up a giant LV, removing
it, creating a larger LV, and restoring is what LVM normally helps me avoid.

Bug#712733: linux-image-3.2.0-4-686-pae: [squeeze-wheezy regression+fix] hpt302/hpt302n support
Package: src:linux Version: 3.2.46-1 Severity: important Dear Debian Linux Kernel Maintainers, Systems using hpt302/htp302n cards don't boot after upgrading from Squeeze to Wheezy. These cards used to be supported by the 2.6 kernel's hpt366 module but the 3.2 kernel's pata_hpt366 module doesn't do the job, nor does the pata_hpt37x. The kernel needs to be built with the pata_3x2n module enabled (config PATA_HPT3X2N). This fixes the problem. --Mike -- Package-specific info: ** Kernel log: boot messages should be attached ** Model information not available ** PCI devices: 00:00.0 Host bridge [0600]: Intel Corporation 82875P/E7210 Memory Controller Hub [8086:2578] (rev 02) Subsystem: Intel Corporation 82875P/E7210 Memory Controller Hub [8086:2578] Control: I/O- Mem+ BusMaster+ SpecCycle- MemWINV- VGASnoop- ParErr- Stepping- SERR+ FastB2B- DisINTx- Status: Cap+ 66MHz- UDF- FastB2B+ ParErr- DEVSEL=fast TAbort- TAbort- MAbort+ SERR- PERR- INTx- Latency: 0 Region 0: Memory at f800 (32-bit, prefetchable) [size=64M] Capabilities: [e4] Vendor Specific Information: Len=06 ?

I can't be certain about 3.8.8-7+squeeze2 because we were focusing on investigating the missing emails. It does not work in 3.8.8-7+squeeze3. However we normally add CCs to a ticket either via command line and cron, or after ticket creation during a web-reply where we also change the owner. Therefore I just tested adding a CC during a web-reply with owner change. This gave a different result: a blank browser page with URL https://secure.yosemite.net/rt/Ticket/Update.html at the top. The owner was changed and an email was sent but the CC was not added. I repeated this test on a different ticket with the same result. I also repeated the test with CC add but no owner change and got a regular display of the ticket afterward but the CC was not added. In all the above I used username from browser field history to add a username. We have been using username there for years, including a long time under 3.8.8-7+squeeze1. b) that you have stopped and started Apache following the upgrade to 3.8.8-7+squeeze3? Yes.

3.8.8-7+squeeze4~test.1 seems to fix the problem of command line rt create reporting 500, and the problem of a blank page after using web-reply to change a ticket's owner. It also seems to fix an (unreported?) problem of auto-refresh RT home page failing to refresh.

The only way that works to include a CC when creating a ticket through the web interface is to specify a full email address, which the post-creation screen displays as a real name. -- Package-specific info: Changed files: -- System Information: Debian Release: 6.0.5 APT prefers stable-updates APT policy: (900, 'stable-updates'), (900, 'stable') Architecture: i386 (i686) Kernel: Linux 2.6.32-5-686 (SMP w/2 CPU cores) Locale: LANG=en_US.UTF-8, LC_CTYPE=en_US.UTF-8 (charmap=UTF-8) Shell: /bin/sh linked to /bin/dash Versions of packages request-tracker3.8 depends on: ii dbconfig-common1.8.46+squeeze.0 common framework for packaging dat ii debconf [debconf-2.0] 1.5.36.1 Debian configuration management sy ii libapache-session-perl 1.87-1Perl modules for keeping persisten ii libcache-simple-timede 0.27-2Perl module to cache and expire ke ii libcalendar-simple-per 1.21-1module for producing simple calend ii libcgi-fast-perl 5.10.1-17squeeze3 CGI::Fast Perl module ii libcgi-pm-perl 3.49-1squeeze1module for Common Gateway Interfac ii libclass-returnvalue-p 0.55-1A return-value object that lets yo ii libcss-squish-perl 0.09-1module to compact many CSS files i ii libdata-ical-perl 0.16+dfsg-1 Perl module for manipulating iCale ii libdbi-perl1.612-1 Perl Database Interface (DBI) ii libdbix-searchbuilder- 1.56-1Perl implementation of a simple OR ii libdevel-stacktrace-pe 1.2100-1 Perl module containing stack trace ii libemail-address-perl 1.889-2 RFC 2822 Address Parsing and Creat ii libfcgi-procmanager-pe 0.18-2Functions for managing FastCGI app ii libfile-sharedir-perl 1.00-0.1 Locate per-dist and per-module sha ii libgd-graph-perl 1.44-3Graph Plotting Module for Perl 5 ii libgd-text-perl0.86-5Text utilities for use with GD ii libgnupg-interface-per 0.42-3Perl interface to GnuPG ii libgraphviz-perl 2.04-1Perl interface to the GraphViz gra ii libhtml-mason-perl 1:1.44-1 HTML::Mason Perl module ii libhtml-parser-perl3.66-1collection of modules that parse H ii libhtml-rewriteattribu 0.03-1concise attribute rewriting ii libhtml-scrubber-perl 0.08-4Perl extension for scrubbing/sanit ii libipc-run-safehandles 0.02-1Use IPC::Run and IPC::Run3 safely ii libjs-prototype1.6.1-1 JavaScript Framework for dynamic w ii libjs-scriptaculous1.8.3-1 JavaScript library for dynamic web ii liblocale-maketext-fuz 0.10-1Maketext from already interpolated ii liblocale-maketext-lex 0.82-1lexicon-handling backends for Loca ii liblog-dispatch-perl 2.22-1Dispatches messages to multiple Lo ii libmailtools-perl 2.06-1Manipulate email in perl programs ii libmime-tools-perl [li 5.428-1 Perl5 modules for MIME-compliant m ii libmime-types-perl 1.30-1Perl extension for determining MIM ii libmodule-versions-rep 1.06-1Report versions of all modules in ii libperlio-eol-perl 0.14-1+b1 PerlIO layer for normalizing line ii libregexp-common-perl 2010010201-1 module with common regular express ii libtext-autoformat-per 1.669002-1module for automatic text wrapping ii libtext-quoted-perl2.06-1Perl module to extract the structu ii libtext-template-perl 1.45-1Text::Template perl module ii libtext-wikiformat-per 0.78-1translates Wiki formatted text int ii libtext-wrapper-perl 1.02-1Simple word wrapping routine ii libtime-modules-perl 2006.0814-2 Various Perl modules for time/date ii libtimedate-perl 1.2000-1 collection of modules to manipulat ii libtree-simple-perl1.18-1A simple tree object ii libuniversal-require-p 0.13-1Load modules from a variable ii libxml-rss-perl1.48-1Perl module for managing RSS (RDF ii libxml-simple-perl 2.18-3Perl module for reading and writin ii perl [libdigest-sha-pe 5.10.1-17squeeze3 Larry Wall's Practical Extraction ii perl-modules [libcgi-p 5.10.1-17squeeze3 Core Perl modules ii postfix [mail-transpor 2.7.1-1+squeeze1 High-performance mail transport ag ii rsyslog [system-log-da 4.6.4-2 enhanced multi-threaded syslogd ii rt3.8-apache2 3.8.8-7+squeeze3 Apache 2 specific files for reques ii rt3.8-clients 3.8.8-7+squeeze3 mail gateway and command-line inte ii rt3.8-db-mysql 3.8.8-7+squeeze3 MySQL database backend for request ii ucf
Bug#610185: sysv-rc.postinst needs to provide more balanced description of insserv pros and cons
You need to document how to recover the Snn/Knn values in all cases (including package changes after enabling insserv) and WITHOUT resorting to backup. When that is done the bug can be down-graded from critical to grave. When you can recover automatically then you can further down-grade it to wish list. The present template is extremely misleading. If you prefer you can both reduce the size and the damage by providing a more balanced README.Debian and directing sysadmins to study it carefully before answering the question. As long as the question states that this dangerous process is recommended the critical bug remains. Hiding this bug by closing or pretending it is not critical by Debian's own definitions is a disservice to Debian's users. --Mike Bird -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to debian-bugs-dist-requ...@lists.debian.org with a subject of unsubscribe.

Bug#610185: sysv-rc.postinst needs to provide more balanced description of insserv pros and cons
Package: sysv-rc Version: 2.88dsf-13.1 Severity: critical Justification: causes serious data loss Blindly enabling insserv can result in unbootable systems or systems which boot but don't start all services. sysv-rc.postinst currently states that enabling insserv is recommended, with no mention of the possible severe consequences. This bug is critical rather than grave because the lost data - the Snn and Knn values - cannot be recovered without restoring a backup. (In fact it's slightly worse than that - if you merely restore /etc insserv will eat it again. You have to use undocumented magic to prevent this.)

Packages are summarily removed from Testing far too often, and then find it much harder to return because they are then new. I don't know if the algorithms were changed six months ago, but starting around the turn of the year we've frequently had to resort to Sid when replicating existing configurations onto new boxes. This is a bar to adoption by new users, and new users are usually desktop or laptop users who need Testing for hardware support.

You want millions of Debian users to install devscripts? Even if they did, how would rc-alert help them? Artificially lowering the RC count in Testing is not always preferential to keeping Testing in a state amenable to testing. You say yourself that it's not artificially as RC bugs in new packages don't get that easily in testing anymore... Removing long-standing packages and stigmatizing them as new in order to keep the RC count down is artificial because such packages are not new. It should only be done very late in the release process if the packages are too late to be fixed for the next release. You may regard the process as some kind of perverse incentive to DDs but the direct consequences of Testing missing long-standing packages is to make Testing unfriendly to newbies, annoying for experienced users, hence less valuable for testing Debian, hence less valuable for improving Debian. --Mike Bird -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of unsubscribe.

I'm all for removing buggy packages early in the release cycle: it makes it less likely that we release without a package that many users need, because it was removed too late in the release cycle, and it allow bug fixers to focus on bugs that we really, absolutely need to fix to be able to release. A thing is best characterized by what it does and how it is used rather than by the name we associate with it. For a moment let's recall what Testing really is for most Debian users - Testing is the Debian Desktop Edition. Stable works well on older hardware, particularly servers, but it's just not usable for most desktops and laptops. The unnecessary holes in Testing are not merely a device to coerce DDs into fixing RC bugs. They make Debian harder to use, harder to test, and harder to improve. Debian would be better without these holes.

Your proposed solution doesn't allow testing to converge to a releasable state. The only solution you are offering is do nothing. Lucas, The current 20-day policy only applies to leaf packages. I don't know which definition of leaf is intended, so let's assume that it refers to packages referenced in Pre-Depend, Depends, and Recommends but not Suggests, as that roughly matches aptitude's default behavior. Of approx[1] 21828 Lenny packages which we track, approx[1] 10514 or 48% are non-leaf and therefore excluded from the current 20-day policy. (If Suggests dependencies are included the latter figure rises to 12786 or 59%). Therefore it cannot be said that the current policy addresses the issue you raise, as half of the packages are immune to the 20-day rule. There is merit to your observation, but it is a different issue. How will the release team know that it's late enough to start removing packages, if the stats are cluttered by hundreds of RC bugs noone cares about? The release team has always in the past used a process of making DDs aware of RC bugs and RC bug counts during the release cycle, particularly during the later stages. The process works. One might wish it worked better, but at least it doesn't cripple the Debian Desktop Edition for most of the release cycle. You have to propose a valid alternate metric and then implement code that allows to keep track of this metric. The code for the metric needs no changes. What is needed is to avoid distorting the metric by prematurely excluding RC bugs from Testing and from the metric. The RC-bugs-in-testing metric is actually a better metric for not artificially excluding RC bugs from testing. A better metric gives better control of the release process. This is a useful (but unintended) side-effect. The principal goal remains that Testing should be usable for new desktop installations for most of the release cycle. For example, if you provided two lists of RC bugs (those in packages that will be removed if not fixed, and those that we need to address), and graphs for the number of bugs in each class, maybe you could try to convince the release team that it's useless to remove packages from testing that early. There is a single list of RC bugs which, if not excused, cause packages to be excluded from the final release. I see no reason to change this. --Mike Bird [1] These figures are approximate because we include a few packages from unofficial sources and we exclude a few Debian packages. -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of unsubscribe.

Bug#482010: spamassassin: Can't locate object method gated_through_received_hdr_remover
Package: spamassassin Version: 3.2.3-0.volatile1 Severity: important Once DNS notices an update is available (which can take a while) sa-update thereafter consistently fails thus: rules: failed to run __GATED_THROUGH_RCVD_REMOVER test, skipping: (Can't locate object method gated_through_received_hdr_remover via package Mail::SpamAssassin::PerMsgStatus at (eval 713) line 801. ) channel: lint check of update failed, channel failed This completely blocks installation of further updates until fixed. This appears to be due to the following recent rule change which (three lines from the end of the commit) invokes gated_through_ _received_hdr_remover. http://www.gossamer-threads.com/lists/spamassassin/commits/121131 Although /usr/share/perl5/Mail/SpamAssassin/Plugin/HeaderEval.pm contains the gated_through_received_hdr_remover sub it is not among those subs registered by $self-register_eval_rule - see especially line 42 comment. I suggest that this be forwarded upstream but in the meantime a one line fix is to add the appropriate @self-register_eval_rule line after line 42. --Mike Bird -- System Information: Debian Release: 4.0 APT prefers stable APT policy: (500, 'stable') Architecture: i386 (i686) Shell: /bin/sh linked to /bin/bash Kernel: Linux 2.6.18-6-686 Locale: LANG=en_US.UTF-8, LC_CTYPE=en_US.UTF-8 (charmap=UTF-8) Versions of packages spamassassin depends on: ii libarchive-tar-perl 1.30-2 Archive::Tar - manipulate tar file ii libdigest-sha1-perl 2.11-1 NIST SHA-1 message digest algorith ii libhtml-parser-perl 3.55-1 A collection of modules that parse ii libio-zlib-perl 1.04-1 IO:: style interface to Compress:: ii libnet-dns-perl 0.59-1etch1 Perform DNS queries from a Perl sc ii libsocket6-perl 0.19-1 Perl extensions for IPv6 ii libsys-hostname-long-perl 1.4-1Figure out the long (fully-qualifi ii libwww-perl 5.805-1 WWW client/server library for Perl ii perl5.8.8-7etch3 Larry Wall's Practical Extraction Versions of packages spamassassin recommends: pn gcc none (no description available) ii gnupg 1.4.6-2GNU privacy guard - a free PGP rep pn libc6-dev none (no description available) pn libmail-spf-query-perlnone (no description available) pn libsys-syslog-perlnone (no description available) ii make 3.81-2 The GNU version of the make util pn re2c none (no description available) pn spamc none (no description available) -- no debconf information -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of unsubscribe.

dispatcher.c does: if ((pidfile_fd = open (LOCALSTATEDIR /run/system-tools-backends.pid, O_CREAT | O_WRONLY)) != -1) But according to man open: mode specifies the permissions to use in case a new file is created. This argument must be supplied when O_CREAT is specified in flags; The fix is to add a mode argument. 0644 is usual for pid files: if ((pidfile_fd = open (LOCALSTATEDIR /run/system-tools-backends.pid, O_CREAT | O_WRONLY, 0644)) != -1) --Mike Bird -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of unsubscribe.

I think the intent is really to restart / force-relaod dbus because STB starts with dbus, like network manager for example, so I don't see the issue here. My reading of dbus force-reload is that reload_it sends a message to dbus to hopefully cause dbus to reexamine its config file. I see nothing there to start system-tools-backends. Perhaps dbus restart was intended?

Bug#478547: grub-install raid1 ext3 failure - regression from Etch
Package: grub Version: 0.97-37 Severity: critical Justification: breaks the whole system grub-install '(hd0)' reports The file /boot/grub/stage1 not read correctly. The problem occurs when grub-install is using dump for some kind of verification. The log is written to /tmp file with a random name: # cat grubJM5Q31 GNU GRUB version 0.97 (640K lower / 3072K upper memory) [ Minimal BASH-like line editing is supported.

Anywhere else TAB lists the possible completions of a device/filename. ] grub dump (md0)/grub/stage1 /tmp/grubrakRL1 Error 23: Error while parsing number grub quit This is a regression from Etch. In fact, simply copying /usr/sbin/grub-install from Etch into another directory and running it without replacing any other grub component works. This happens on a lot of systems but most people don't run grub-install on a working system. We have a policy of always running grub-install after updating the grub package so we see this problem sooner than most. -- Package-specific info: *** BEGIN /boot/grub/device.map (fd0) /dev/fd0 (hd0) /dev/hde (hd1) /dev/hdg *** END /boot/grub/device.map *** BEGIN /proc/mounts /dev/md1 / ext3 rw,errors=remount-ro,data=ordered 0 0 /dev/md1 /dev/.static/dev ext3 rw,errors=remount-ro,data=ordered 0 0 /dev/mapper/VG0-ACCT /store/ACCT ext3 rw,data=ordered 0 0 /dev/mapper/VG0-IMS++ /cache/IMS++ ext3 rw,data=ordered 0 0 /dev/mapper/VG0-JPG /cache/JPG ext3 rw,data=ordered 0 0 /dev/mapper/VG0-MP3 /store/MP3 ext3 rw,data=ordered 0 0 /dev/mapper/VG0-OLD /store/OLD ext3 rw,noatime,data=ordered 0 0 /dev/mapper/VG0-mpa--sf.yosemite.net.1 /BACKUP/mpa-sf.yosemite.net.1 ext3 rw,noatime,data=ordered 0 0 /dev/mapper/VG0-mpa--sf.yosemite.net.2 /BACKUP/mpa-sf.yosemite.net.2 ext3 rw,noatime,data=ordered 0 0 /dev/mapper/VG0-mpa--sf.yosemite.net.3 /BACKUP/mpa-sf.yosemite.net.3 ext3 rw,noatime,data=ordered 0 0 /dev/md0 /boot ext3 rw,data=ordered 0 0 *** END /proc/mounts *** BEGIN /boot/grub/menu.lst # menu.lst - See: grub(8), info grub, update-grub(8) #grub-install(8), grub-floppy(8), #grub-md5-crypt, /usr/share/doc/grub #and /usr/share/doc/grub-doc/. ## default num # Set the default entry to the entry number NUM.

Bug#394594: texlive-context: Context is approx 45 versions out of date
Package: texlive-context
Version: 2005.dfsg.2-1
Severity: important
Both the testing (2005.dfsg.2-1) and the new unstable (...2-2)
versions of texlive-context are based on the 2005.10.27 version
of ConTeXt which is 45 versions out of date as of this writing.
I had been struggling with context in Etch for a week and found
it strange that many of the examples on the website, wiki, and
mailing lists could not possibly work with the ConTeXt I have.
Hopefully a new version can be picked up from
http://www.pragma-ade.com/download-1.htm
before Etch freeze as the current Debian texlive-context
package seems to serve no useful purpose.
I note that the new ...2-2 version includes three new
files - supp-{pdf,mpe,mis}.tex - but all else is October 2005
or older. Perhaps an update script is broken?
