Bug#555644: libc6: fails to update from 2.10 -- incorrect invoke-rc.d call in postinst script

2009-11-10 Thread Andreas Beckmann
Package: libc6
Version: 2.10.1-6
Severity: serious

Hi,

when updating a sid/amd64 chroot (on a lenny(+older squeeze kernel)/amd64 host),
libc6 fails to update properly.
Last previous update was performed on Oct 12, no problems at that time.
This time, libc6 was going to be updated from 2.9-27 to 2.10.1-6 and
configuration fails with:
(since I didn't keep the original error message
and it was way to messed up by a lot of packages failing with 
unconfigured libc6, I can still reproduce the problem by manually
reinstalling libc6)

# dpkg -i /var/cache/apt/archives/libc6_2.10.1-6_amd64.deb
(Reading database ... 28139 files and directories currently installed.)
Preparing to replace libc6 2.10.1-6 (using .../libc6_2.10.1-6_amd64.deb) ...
Unpacking replacement libc6 ...
Setting up libc6 (2.10.1-6) ...
Checking for services that may need to be restarted...
Checking init scripts...
invoke-rc.d: unknown initscript, /etc/init.d/-query not found.
dpkg: error processing libc6 (--install):
 subprocess installed post-installation script returned error exit status 100
Errors were encountered while processing:
 libc6

One reason for this are some incorrect calls to invoke-rc.d:

# grep  -query /var/lib/dpkg/info/*
/var/lib/dpkg/info/libc6.postinst:  invoke-rc.d -query 
${service} start ; status=$?
/var/lib/dpkg/info/libc6.preinst:   invoke-rc.d -query 
${service} start ; status=$?

This should have been --query.

Surprisingly this update worked on another machine with a similar chroot
without problems, that chroot was updated once more inbetween and 
yesterdays update was only from libc6 2.10.1-1 to 2.10.1-6.

If I manually fix the spelling of --query in the postinst script and try 
to configure libc6, new errors occur:

# dpkg --configure libc6
Setting up libc6 (2.10.1-6) ...
Checking for services that may need to be restarted...
Checking init scripts...
dpkg: error processing libc6 (--configure):
 subprocess installed post-installation script returned error exit status 105
Errors were encountered while processing:
 libc6

Error 105 seems to be a return value from invoke-rc.d --query,
probably misinterpreted as a failure by set -e.

Bug#549626: [pkg-nvidia-devel] Bug#547248: ITP: libvdpau -- Video Decode and Presentation API for Unix

2009-10-17 Thread Andreas Beckmann
Andres Mejia wrote:

 One concern I have is with the trace library, libvdpau_trace.so. If this
 library is not going to supply any versioning, than this library should reside
 in a subdirectory in /usr/lib. For example, we could follow the same scheme
 adopted by pulseaudio, have the trace library installed in
 /usr/lib/vdpau-0.2/modules.

As I understand it, both libvdpau_trace.so and libvdpau_$VENDOR.so (with
$VENDOR = nvidia for now) are plugins, dlopen()ed from libvdpau.so.1
(and have no proper versioning like most plugins).

So if the wrapper can be patched to search in a subdirectory of /usr/lib
(and /usr/lib32 or /usr/lib64 where appropriate) both the trace library
and the vendor implementation can be moved out of /usr/lib{,32,64}

For the subdirectory something like just /usr/lib/vdpau or
/usr/lib/vdpau-$PLUGINABI might be a better choice, as the interface
(version number) of the vdpau wrapper might evolve while staying plugin
compatible (using some kind of capability interface).
Or /usr/lib/vdpau for the vendor implementation, /usr/lib/libvdpau1 for
the trace library/plugin (which will always match the wrapper library
because they are supplied by the same package, so no ABI issues at all
involving the trace library)

 If the library is to be ABI compatible across different revisions, than
 versioning info should be added to the library instead.

BTW, what about building a lib32vdpau1 package on amd64, too? This will
be needed by libvdpau*-nvidia-ia32. Or are there chances to get
libvdpau1 into ia32-libs(-whatever) in time?

Bug#545700: valgrind: new upstream release 3.5.0

2009-09-08 Thread Andreas Beckmann
Package: valgrind
Version: 1:3.4.1-1
Severity: normal

Hi,

a new version of valgrind was released on 19 Aug 2009.

Building an updated package for my own use I noticed the following
packaging issues:
* the patch '01_pcm-ioctl' does no longer apply and I did not look into
  whether is had been applied upstream
* a refreshed version of patch '02_version' is attached
* the ACKNOWLEDGEMENTS file is gone and needs to be removed from
  debian/docs
* I attach a debian/watch file, too

Bug#550240: netbase: invoke-rc.d networking restart terminates DHCP connections but does not restart them

2009-10-08 Thread Andreas Beckmann
Package: netbase
Version: 4.37
Severity: normal

Hi,

I just noticed that 
  invoke-rc.d networking restart
does terminate DHCP connections but does not restart them. Fortunately
the machine was in the next room :-)

/etc/network/interfaces (as generated by Debian-installer):

# The loopback network interface
auto lo
iface lo inet loopback

# The primary network interface
allow-hotplug eth0
iface eth0 inet dhcp

/etc/init.d/networking calls
  ifdown -a
which works on all configured interfaces and afterwards calls
  ifup -a
which only works on interfaces marked auto, not allow-hotplug

Bug#533217: [patch] suggest 'm-a clean nvidia' before aborting if old files breaking the build are found in the build directory

2009-06-16 Thread Andreas Beckmann
tag 533217 +patch
thanks

Hi,

build breakage by not cleaning before the new build is caused by the
following chain of events:

* an old makefile (lowercase m) exists from older versions of the source
* m-a runs the clean target from this makefile (which gets preferred by
make over the new Makefile (capital M) shipped)
* this clean target removes the Makefile
* build bombs

A simple workaround (patch attached) is to check for the presence of a
'makefile' in the binary-modules target and print an error message
suggesting 'm-a clean nvidia' and abort if it was found. At this point
there is no way to recover by e.g. removing the 'makefile' because the
'Makefile' is already gone.

This should help all people running into this problem again and again.

Version: 4.4
Severity: normal

Hi,

reportbug blocks infinitely if it encounters unreadable directories
(files?) during package verification.
One example is the bugzilla3 (3.2.0.1-1) package which has some
directories in /usr/share with permissions 0750, owner root:www-data
(e.g. /usr/share/bugzilla3/lib) that I as normal user can't access and I
had to use the --no-verify option to report that as bug #533394.

Andreas

Bug#519792: symlink shuffling for libvdpau

2009-06-17 Thread Andreas Beckmann
reopen 519792
thanks

Hi,

the new libvdpau packages are missing some symbolic links (they seem to
be created by ldconfig, but should be included in the package anyway):

nvidia-libvdpau:
/usr/lib/libvdpau_nvidia.so - libvdpau_nvidia.so.185.18.14
/usr/lib/libvdpau_trace.so - libvdpau_trace.so.185.18.14
(the wrapper library dlopens libvdpau_*.so)

nvidia-libvdpau-ia32: similarily

The libvdpau.so symlink should go to the -dev package (and point to
libvdpau.so.1).

(I just verified that mplayer (from mplayer-dmo source) does dlopen
libvdpau.so.1 not libvdpau.so .)

Updated control files / templates are attached.
I also attach lintian-override templates for the nvidia-libvdpau* packages.

 If so, it's a bug in debsums, since we relay on it for package

 Please confirm and I'll reassign this but to debsums (or you can do it

There is no debsums (or other) process started by reportbug around, file

Bug#519792: symbols files for libvdpau

2009-06-17 Thread Andreas Beckmann
Hi,

I'm attaching symbols files for the new libvdpau packages.
nvidia-libvdpau-ia32.symbols can be generated dynamically with the
following target in debian/rules (don't forget to add it to AUTOGEN):

debian/nvidia-libvdpau-ia32.symbols: debian/nvidia-libvdpau.symbols.i386
sed 's/nvidia-libvdpau/nvidia-libvdpau-ia32/g' $  $@

This will probably supersede nvidia-libvdpau.shlibs

Bug#533217: nvidia-kernel-source should recommend module-assistant instead of kernel-package

2009-06-17 Thread Andreas Beckmann
Hi,

since module-assistant is currently the only way to build the binary
module from the source package, module-assistant should be recommended
by nvidia-kernel-source instead of kernel-package. Also the dependency
on dpatch no longer seems to be neccessary.

Bug#533515: nvidia-graphics-drivers: shlibs cleanup

2009-06-18 Thread Andreas Beckmann
Package: nvidia-graphics-drivers
Version: 185.18.14-1
Severity: normal
Tags: patch

Hi,

here comes a patch that does some cleanup on the
nvidia-graphics-drivers shlibs handling and some related changes.
There are some changes I already mentioned in other bug reports, but the
overlap should be fairly small.

Short summary:
 * use dh_lintian, updated overrides
 * no more hardcoded library dependencies, everything is generated
 * more consistency between all packages

Detailed list of changes:
* debian/control.in[source]
  Build-Depends: debhelper (= 6.0.7~)
bumped, for dh_lintian
  Build-Depends: libc6-dev-i386 [amd64], ia32-libs [amd64]
added, these were missing
* debian/control.in[some packages]
  - add Section: non-free/libs, Section: non-free/libdevel
  - drop hardcoded library dependencies
  - add ${misc:Depends}
* debian/control.in[nvidia-glx]
  Provides: libgl1
added, since we provide an alternative version of this library
theoretically libgl1-mesa-glx should be uninstallable if nvidia-glx
is installed
  Provides: xserver-xorg-video-2
added, this was removed in 177.80-2 and never restored
* debian/control.in[nvidia-libvdpau{,-ia32}]
  Depends: x11-common
removed, not needed
  Suggests: nvidia-settings
removed, not needed
  Recommends: nvidia-kernel-#VERSION#
added (and only recommend it, so the package is installable in
chroots that don't have a kernel installed)
  Suggests: nvidia-kernel-source (= #VERSION#)
added (for consistency)
* debian/control.in[nvidia-kernel-source]
  Recommends: kernel-package (= 8.082)
replaced with ...
  Recommends: module-assistant
... this (see #533217)
* debian/nvidia-glx-dev.links.in
  - removed comment which resulted in invalid symlink being packged
* debian/nvidia-glx-ia32.links.in
  - add a libGLcore.so.1 symlink, drop *.so symlinks
* debian/nvidia-glx.shlibs
  - xlibmesa-gl is now libgl1-mesa-glx
  - nothing but our libGL.so.x.y depends on libGLcore,
so no libgl1-mesa-glx | libgl1 is needed there
* debian/nvidia-glx-ia32.shlibs
  - added (based on debian/nvidia-glx.shlibs), there was none before
  - eventually this would be a theoretically better entry for libGL:
libGL 1 ia32-libs | libgl1-ia32
* debian/nvidia-glx-ia32.lintian-overrides.in,
  debian/nvidia-glx.lintian-overrides.amd64.in,
  debian/nvidia-glx.lintian-overrides.i386.in,
  debian/nvidia-glx.override.in, debian/nvidia-glx-ia32.override.in
  - renamed for dh_lintian usage, split because different overrides are
needed for i386 and amd64, updated
* debian/nvidia-libvdpau-dev.links,
  debian/nvidia-libvdpau-ia32.links.in, debian/nvidia-libvdpau.links.in
  - see #519792
  - eventually some more Replaces entries are still needed for
nvidia-libvdpau-dev
* debian/rules
  - use dh_lintian
  - some files were renamed
  - drop dh_shlibdeps hacks, options, workarounds -- this now works
out-of-the-box :-)

Bug#533518: nvidia-graphics-drivers: improved handling of generated files

2009-06-18 Thread Andreas Beckmann
Package: nvidia-graphics-drivers
Version: 185.18.14-1
Severity: normal
Tags: patch

Hi,

here comes a patch that improves handling of generated files:
* do not regenerate debian/control during build (using code inspired by
  and stolen from linux-support)
* no longer ship generated files in the source package, they are
  regenerated during build anyway
* no more messsing around with debian.binary/changelog

After applying the patch, the following changes have to be made:
* rename debian/control.in to debian/control.gen.in
* remove all generated files (also from svn repository)
  except debian/control (removing everything that's missing after
  running debian/rules clean should be fine)
* there is a new generated file debian/control.md5sum (generated and
  updated during debian/rules clean) that needs to be added to the svn
  repository

debian/rules clean will now regenerate debian/control and
debian/control.md5sum (if neccessary) and the build will bomb if
debian/control{,.md5sum} is not up-to-date

Bug#534936: pbuilder-buildpackage reinstalls fakeroot and breaks the build environment that way

2009-06-28 Thread Andreas Beckmann
Package: pbuilder
Version: 0.188
Severity: normal

Hi Junichi,

fakeroot in testing is currently broken (in respect to libc6-dev-i386
because of the /emul/ia32-linux/ transition in unstable), so I manually
downgraded it to the working version from stable in my squeeze builder
after the last update. Unfortunately pbuilder-buildpackage installs
fakeroot after satisfying the build dependencies causing an update of
the already installed version and breaking everything else (if
libc6-dev-i386 installed). If the reinstallation could be skipped if the
package is already present everything should work out fine.
fakeroot gets added to the EXTRAPACKAGES list at the beginning of
/usr/lib/pbuilder/pbuilder-buildpackage.

For now I will block the bad version in /etc/apt/preferences:

Package: fakeroot
Pin: release stable
Pin-Priority: 501

Unfortunately the following intuitive solution does not work (#454080):

Package: fakeroot
Pin: version 1.12.4
Pin-Priority: -1

Bug#534938: inconsistent naming of lintian tags

2009-06-28 Thread Andreas Beckmann
Package: lintian
Version: 2.2.12
Severity: normal

Hi,

there is inconsistent naming used for several lintian tags, e.g.

shared-lib-without-dependency-information
shlib-with-non-pic-code

Probably only one prefix (shlib or shared-lib) should be used.

Bug#534940: lintian: inconsistent reporting of affected files

2009-06-28 Thread Andreas Beckmann
Package: lintian
Version: 2.2.12
Severity: normal

Hi,

the way affected files are reported by linitian is inconsistent, some
tags report them with a leading './', others don't. E.g.

shared-lib-without-dependency-information ./usr/lib/libfoo.so.1.2.3
shlib-with-non-pic-code usr/lib/libfoo.so.1.2.3

Probably only one form should be used and the ./ prefix is not needed
IMO.

Bug#534979: ia32-apt-get: installation fails if sources.list is missing because sources.list.d/ is in use

2009-06-28 Thread Andreas Beckmann
Package: ia32-apt-get
Version: 18
Severity: normal

Hi,

installation fails with the following error:

Setting up ia32-apt-get (18) ...
Converting for architecture amd64:
  sources.list
/usr/share/ia32-apt-get/parse-sources.list: line 60: /etc/apt/sources.list: No 
such file or directory
dpkg: error processing ia32-apt-get (--configure):
 subprocess installed post-installation script returned error exit status 1

I actually don't have a sources.list file because everything is
configured in sources.list.d/.
Looking at the other bug reports, this failure is probably a good thing
because my system is not messed up by modifying/destroying my sources.list.

Bug#535268: pbuilder: option to replace /dev/random with /dev/urandom inside build environment

2009-07-01 Thread Andreas Beckmann
Package: pbuilder
Version: 0.188
Severity: wishlist

Hi Junichi,

what about an option to replace /dev/random with /dev/urandom inside the
chroot?
Installation of ia32-apt-get (current sid) during package build every time
drains /dev/random and blocks until enough new random bits can be collected.
For creating some temporary gpg keys/keyrings/whatever, the use of
/dev/urandom should be sufficient.
Are there any uses of pbuilder that might need a good /dev/random device?

What about a new setting for pbuilder to replace /dev/random by a
symlink to /dev/urandom
a) never (as it is now, probably should be the default)
b) during build
c) always (also during login/execute --save-after, create/update, ...)
== DEVURANDOMASDEVRANDOM=never|build|always

Once a setting of 'always' was used in a session that was saved
(--save-after, update, create) that change might be permanent and not
automatically undone by setting 'never' or 'build'.

Bug#535274: /usr/share/ia32-apt-get/.gnupg should probably be moved to /etc

2009-07-01 Thread Andreas Beckmann
Package: ia32-apt-get
Version: 18
Severity: normal

Hi,

ia32-apt-get creates /usr/share/ia32-apt-get/.gnupg with its keyrings
etc. The contents should probably be moved to /etc/ia32-apt-get/.
Running 
  gpg --homedir /etc/ia32-apt-get ...
should make gpg search the keyrings in /etc/ia32-apt-get/ (without
.gnupg appended), no more changing $HOME needed to fool gpg.

Removal of the package also leaves the empty directories
/usr/share/ia32-apt-get/dists/transitional/ and
/usr/share/ia32-apt-get/dists/ behind (they are removed during purge).

postrm should probably try to rmdir these (and /usr/share/ia32-apt-get)
after it did some cleanup in there during the remove step.

Thinking again, if there are custom signatures created in
/usr/share/ia32-apt-get, shouldn't this be moved to /var?

Bug#535277: pbuilder: ia32-apt-get (amd64) introduces changes to /var/cache/apt/archives/

2009-07-01 Thread Andreas Beckmann
Package: pbuilder
Version: 0.188
Severity: normal

Hi Junichi,

ia32-apt-get introduces changes to the /var/cache/apt/archives/ layout
by introducing /var/cache/apt/$ARCH/archives/ for amd64 and i386.
I'm not sure how this will affect operation of pbuilder.
Nor have I tried to use ia32-apt-get and see how it actually goes.

On the other hand I'm happily using a single /var/cache/apt/archives/
shared between my main system (amd64) and several amd64 and i386 pbuilders
for sid, squeeze, lenny (via BINDMOUNTS=/var/cache/apt/archives) and
an i386 schroot environment.
The cache is just never cleaned :-)
So there might be no need for separate caches in ia32-apt-get at all.

Bug#535425: ia32-libs-tools/create[-all] failures

2009-07-01 Thread Andreas Beckmann
Package: ia32-libs-tools
Version: 20
Severity: normal

Hi Goswin,

many thanks for this nice toolkit!

/usr/lib/ia32-libs-tools/createi[-all] fails to do its job. I managed to
track some problems down to

1. /usr/lib/ia32-libs-tools/fetch calls 'apt-get update' but fails. 
   Running apt-get update manually works fine. I didn't look into
   details of this problem, just removed that line from .../fetch
   Is it really neccessary to call apt-get update from fetch (and every
   time? Wouldn't it be OK to fail during fetching packages if the lists
   are not up-to-date as it would happen with apt-get install?
   The user should just remember to run update first or live with the
   consequences otherwise.

2. fetching the binary/source package fails if there is more than one
   version available, e.g. because sources.list contains stable,
   testing, unstable, ... with appropriate priorities set in the
   preferences file, e.g.

# /usr/lib/ia32-libs-tools/create bzip2

Seems to work a little bit, depending on how the parameter is passed
to other programs.


The naming of 'create-all' and 'create' is inconsistent to what they do:
'create-all' creates new packages (no parameters, processes a list)
'create' requires a parameter (the package to work on) but only does a
preparating step, not the package build.

There is a script missing that builds converted packages for the command
line parameter(s) together with a changes file so that all this can be
uploaded to a local repository.

Hi Goswin,

there is no need to convert any file from /etc/apt/sources.list.d/ that
does not match *.list as only this pattern is recognized by apt-get.

Please uninstall nvidia-kernel-2.6.32-5-686 (and the other

The actual bug seems to be that the prebuilt module
/lib/modules/`uname -r`/nvidia/nvidia.ko
takes precedence over the dkms module
/lib/modules/`uname -r`/updates/dkms/nvidia.ko
I need to verify this and see if anything can be improved in that setting.

No. It's just a coincidence that an old upstream version (195.36.31)
matches the device major number (which is the same for all driver releases).

On 2011-06-16 10:05, Tomasz Rybak wrote:
 Thanks.
 I was able to build it offline (only 64-bit versions, as I did
 not have 32-bit libraries installed).
 
 Currently amd-app-sdk-dev does not build. Will it be just meta-package
 depending on all AMD APP-related packages?

I'm not yet sure what to put into this package ...

 lintian complains about:
 W: amd-libopencl1: package-name-doesnt-match-sonames libOpenCL1

I hope some vendor would release a free version of these libraries -
like nvidia did with libvdpau1. It's just a generic wrapper, not an
implentation.

 At the same time I was not able to install amd-libopencl1:

 Translation - both nvidia-libopencl1 and amd-libopencl1 provide
 libopencl1 and as nvidia-libopencl1 is properly installed
 dpkg will not install amd-libopencl1.

libopencl1 is just a generic loader and can use any implementation (the
icd packages).

 But thanks to having /usr/lib/libamdocl64.so in amd-opencl-icd
 python-pyopencl was able to detect and use OpenCL implementations
 from both NVIDIA and AMD. So current situation makes sense
 and works for my packages.

Unfortunately nvidia and amd implementations are not identical (symbol
versioning etc.) and the amd one seems to work a bit better with amd
than nvidia-libopencl1. nvidia icd seems to work the same with both
implemntations. (the oclinfo program from amd crashed at some point with
nvidia-libopencl1)

 By current situation I mean nvidia-opencl-icd providing
 opencl-icd and depending on nvidia-libopencl1, and amd-opencl-icd
 providing opencl-icd and containing AMD OpenCL implementation.
 As long as I can install more than one ICD and all of them work
 I am content.

That was the idea behind OpenCL and my packaging.

 Would it make sense to have similar meta-package for opencl-dev?
 This way if I have NVIDIA hardware I install nvidia-opencl-dev
 (providing, say, opencl-dev), and if I have AMD/ATI hardware
 I install amd-opencl-dev (or amd-app-sdk) which also can provide
 opencl-dev meta-package.

May be a good idea. But finally we would need some shlibs magic to map
the dependency on vendor-libopencl1 to libopencl1.

Hi KiBi,

could you add
   Breaks: libgl1-nvidia-alternatives (= 275.09.07-1)
to libgl1-mesa-glx? (Best before the multiarch change moves to testing).

The multiarch move of MESA breaks current diversion handling (many
bugreports).
I'm working on updates (but this will have to go through NEW),
but for now people could keep working nvidia systems
using the Xorg/MESA versions in testing.
275.09.07-1 is a new upstream release to be uploaded soon and will be
the last version without a multiarch mesa fix.

Thanks

2011-06-17 Thread Andreas Beckmann
Package: module-assistant
Version: 0.11.3
Severity: normal

Hi KiBi,

m-a is not fully working with linux-3.0:

* KDREV detection is not working properly because
sub get_kpackage() does not check for something greater than 2.* and
falls back to the old 'kernel' prefix.
I would add
return linux if (($_[0] =~ /^(\d+)\.(\d+)/)  ($1 = 3));
(do not expect that the version will have 3 number parts forever)

* In sub setvars() $ENV{KDREV} should be deleted if $KDREV is not
defined, otherwise you end up with an old value of KDREV (which is set
if you build for a large list of kernels) which finally produces funny
named things like

 configure properly.

 Andreas
 
 This is it:
 Setting up nvidia-installer-cleanup (20110515+1) ...
 Setting up libglx-nvidia-alternatives (270.41.19-1) ...
 ERROR: /usr/lib/xorg/modules/extensions/libglx.so does exist even if it is 
 diverted. Aborting.

That's the culprit. Your system is somehow broken ... there are files
that werent expected to exist ...

 So .. the cleanup does install. The libglx-nvidia-alternatives problem is 
 still thee. Note that I synlinksed the extensions/libglx.so myself

Undo ... and retry

--it has no effect,

It does - breaks libglx-nvidia-alternatives

 however, some programs look for something there to know that opengl is 
 available! This is NOT what caused the original error which is what ends this 
 report.

If all the packages are installed properly, in the end you will have
something in /usr/lib/xorg/modules/extensions/libglx.so

 So ... two things here:
 
 1. Something does need to be in /usr/lib/xorg/modules/extensions/libglx.so 
 whether or not diverted, dummy or for real. Otherwise, flightgear, for 
 example, will not run!

It will be once all the packages have been configured.

 2. There is a problem in the libglx-nvidia-alternatives script preventing its 
 configuration. As I posted, nothing is set up for libglx.so but that it 
 apparently does not matter, that the libGL1 setup seems to take care of this.

Your system is broken in a way unknown to libglx-nvidia-alternatives,
so it gives up and lets you fix it.

They have been added in the meantime and now your package manager will

 Because I never encountered such a thing. And if I can't see that this
 happens regularily I'm not going to write extra code for this anomaly.
 
 Anyone going from Nvidia's installer to ours is likely to have put in this 
 diversion. Otherwise, every time xorg-core is upgraded, one needs to 
 reinstall 
 the glx library. So it would not hurt to include in the script. Indeed, this 
 might be considered a (lower priority) bug on the installer.

Reopening and retitling the bug report while marking it as wontfix
until a number of other users has the same problem. Or someone sends
a patch.

Eventually a fix should go into the updated diversion handling instead,
see the glx-alternatives source package.

 No change whatsoever :-( Tried downgrading to stable, which involves 
 downgrading X and kernel as well - this works! So its not a coincidence of a 
 hardware defect...

If you are still running stable and want to try again (eventually with a
later driver version), test in this order and check after each change:
* upgrading driver to latest version
* upgrading kernel (requires newer driver to compile the module)
* upgrading Xorg

update-alternatives: error: /var/lib/dpkg/alternatives/test1 corrupt: duplicate

The problem is that the duplicate slave is inserted into the database
without proper checking and any further operation on this alternative
fails. The database it not recoverable by
'update-alternatives --remove-all broken-alternative'

The problem is reproducible in sid and squeeze, but not in lenny (which
had the perl implementation of update-alternatives) - the duplicate is
detected before inserting it into the database.

Bug#622888: lintian: multi-arch libraries with arch-dependent overrides

2011-04-15 Thread Andreas Beckmann
Package: lintian
Version: 2.5.0~rc2
Severity: normal

Hi,

I just came across a possible problem with multi-arch support of
libraries that have arch-dependent overrides. I do not mean overrides
that simply differ in the triplet, that is covered in bug #617991:
lintian overrides should support more precise pattern matching.

The more interesting case is a package that has actually different
overrides per arch and therefore can't be covered by better wildcard
matching. For example the libgl1-nvidia-glx package has the following
(and some more) overrides on i386:
# The NVIDIA license does not allow any form of modification.
libgl1-nvidia-glx: binary-has-unneeded-section
libgl1-nvidia-glx: shared-lib-without-dependency-information
libgl1-nvidia-glx: shlib-with-non-pic-code
libgl1-nvidia-glx: shlib-without-PT_GNU_STACK-section
libgl1-nvidia-glx: spelling-error-in-binary
and on amd64:
# The NVIDIA license does not allow any form of modification.
libgl1-nvidia-glx: binary-has-unneeded-section
libgl1-nvidia-glx: shared-lib-without-dependency-information
libgl1-nvidia-glx: shlib-with-executable-stack
libgl1-nvidia-glx: spelling-error-in-binary

Installing different overrides files in different architectures of a
Multi-Arch: same package will cause a file conflict on
/usr/share/lintian/overrides/package as described in
http://wiki.debian.org/Multiarch/Implementation
Note that any files in /usr/share or /etc must be byte-for-byte
identical across architectures, otherwise file conflicts will
result! ...

Installing a superset of the overrides on all architectures will cause
unused-override warnings (which could be overridden ...).

I see the follwing possible solutions, but there are probably more and
better ones:

1. allow installation of overrides in
  /usr/share/lintian/overrides/package:arch
   (using the multi-arch selection syntax for dpkg and friends) or
  /usr/share/lintian/overrides/package.arch
   (but that allows for file conflicts between packages foobar and
   foobar.i386) or whatever suffix dpkg will use to distinguish files
   from same package, different arch in /var/lib/dpkg/info.
   This could be done automatically by dh_lintian when encountering a
   debian/[package.]lintian-overrides.arch file for a Multi-Arch:
   same package in debian/compat level 9.
   Lintian needs to be changed to prefer overrides/package:arch over
   overrides/package.
   A package providing more than one file in
   /usr/share/lintian/overrides/ is malformed.

2. add :arch suffix to the overrides as in
libgl1-nvidia-glx:i386: shlib-with-non-pic-code
libgl1-nvidia-glx:amd64: shlib-with-executable-stack
libgl1-nvidia-glx: spelling-error-in-binary
   and ignore override entries for foreign architectures.
   The :arch suffix may not be used for Arch: all packages.
   A disadvantage I see here is that it is not easy to exclude an
   override for just one architecture, one has to enumerate all other
   archs and add the override for them. This could be solved by 3.:

3. add architecture selection similar to dpkg as in 
libgl1-nvidia-glx [i386]: shlib-with-non-pic-code
libgl1-nvidia-glx [!i386]: shlib-with-executable-stack
libgl1-nvidia-glx [amd64, i386]: spelling-error-in-binary

Bug#620426: External display no longer recognised on X startup

 Package: nvidia-glx
 Version: 260.19.44-1

Could you first retry with 270.30-1 which is available in experimental?

 I use an HP Elitebook 8440p laptop with the HP docking station. An HP w2207h
 LCD display is attached to the DVI output of the docking station.
 
 I use a minimal xorg.conf as per the package README.Debian file.
 
 When the laptop is booted in the docked state, the GRUB and Linux boot 
 messages appear on the external LCD but X (when it starts) is displayed on 
 the 
 laptop's own screen. Until very recently it used to be the case that X also 
 used the external LCD by default. It is possible to redirect the X display 
 manually from the laptop screen to the external LCD once a session is 
 running, 
 using the Nvidia control panel, but this is a major inconvenience.
 
 When the laptop is not docked and not connected to the external display,
 everything works fine.

Could this be related to changes in X? You are running Xorg from
unstable. As Xorg 1.9 does not work with the 195.xx driver you probably
updated X and NVIDIA at the same time, making the problem harder to debug.

If the 270.xx driver does not fix the problem, could you switch back to
Xorg from squeeze (the newer NVIDIA drivers work there, too) to make
sure this is actually a problem in the NVIDIA driver? Please test Xorg
1.7 with 270.xx, 260.xx and 195.xx drivers.

 The problem occurs also whit xdm and gdm.
 I am changed the driver with the vesa driver and it runs.

Does the problem occur in the [kgx]dm login screen or when the user
session is started?

If it happens when starting the user session, create a new user so that
all user configuration is reinitialized.

How does xorg.conf look like? Please try a minimal one as described in
README.Debian in the nvidia-glx package.

If all this does not help, try downgrading Xorg to the version in
squeeze (xserver-xorg-core 1.7 etc.) The newer NVIDIA drivers do work there.

 You seem to be talking about nouveau, but your logs are about
 nvidia. Nothing I can do here, but reassign the bug there.

Please try the new nvidia driver packages 260.19.44-1 from unstable and report 
if the problem persists.

A new driver release (260.19.44) is available as packages in unstable.
Please first run 'nvidia-installer --uninstall' to revert all changes done by

 I suppose i have to run that script again and recompile things, or could
 you point out the right way of doing it: what debian packages i should use
 that would not break with upgrades?

nvidia-glx and nvidia-kernel-dkms should pull everything you need.

 You may want to try the 270.30-1 beta driver which should arrive in 
 experimental soon. Eventually nvidia already fixed this problem.

270.41.06-1 is now available in unstable. The module builds on 2.6.32

Just make sure you don't have binutils-gold installed, there is
currently an issue when building the kernel module with -gold.

To fix your system without waiting for a fixed upload do the following:

* reinstall libgl1-nvidia-alternatives-ia32
* reinstall ia32-libs
* finish your upgrades

Afterwards please use reportbug to provide additional information (and
run the script that collects information again):

I want to see what is left over from nvidia installer afterwards.
Also provide me the output of

Thanks for the log. I see what happened. I just need to copy some
additional sanity checking code from libgl1-nvidia-alternatives to
libgl1-nvidia-alternatives-ia32 to automatically fix this on installation.

In case you have binutils-gold installed, remove this package and

No. The 195xx driver does not support Xorg 1.9 which is currently in

Your setup is very special. You will need to reconfigure several things
depending on whether nvidia gpu is available or not, e.g.
/etc/X11/xorg.conf, the libGL.so.1 selection, ...

 /etc/init.d/nvidia-kernel from nvidia-kernel-common creates /dev/nvidia0 and
 /dev/nvidiactl on every boot, even I don't have nvidia card. And on each 
 access

Please have a look in /etc/default/nvidia-kernel, you can disable
creating the device there.

 to /dev/nvidia0 udev tries to load nvidia module and computers freezes for
 several seconds. flashplugin-nonfree tries to do something with /dev/nvidia0
 several times at start and computer freezes for about half a minute.

Feel free to provide a patch for /etc/default/nvidia-kernel that checks
whether nvidia video hardware is installed and skips device creation if
it can be safely said that no such hardware is available. Do not assume
lspci etc. are installed everywhere, so fall back to device creation if
you can't properly check for the device.

  The difference is that if hddtemp is not installed, the hddtemp module
  simply fails to run the hddtemp program. But if libXNVCtrl is not

  back when it was included in nvidia-settings it was only shipped as a
  static library).

 But libNVCtrl could be packaged separately (as it is GPL2) and
 sensors-applet could depend on it, then sensors-applet would load fine
 and it could all work as I described previously.

There is now a separate libxnvctrl-dev package (in contrib) containing the 
headers and a static library - this stuff was not really suited to the 
nvidia-settings package. In case there are more things missing (more headers, 
another library, ... there might be some additional code available in the 
nvidia-settings source package), please let me know.
If you need a shared library, a patch would be welcome, I never looked into 
the creation of shared libraries.

  I think we decided in
  http://bugs.debian.org/cgi-bin/bugreport.cgi?bug=434887 that that way
  to fix this is to make the various sensors-applet modules into DSOs that
  can be dlopen'd ...

This has happened inbetween ... so someone needs to write a nvidia module for 
sensors-applet which needs to go into contrib ...

 The man page explains how to use .xinitrc to automatically run
 nvidia-settings --load-config-only when X starts. AFAIK gdm etc don't
 use .xinitrc for a standard GNOME Session, KDE Session etc so that
 advice won't work for many people.

 Besides improving the documentation I think it would be a good idea to
 add an XDG autostart entry for nvidia-settings so inexperienced users
 don't have the bother of editing scripts or using the likes of
 gnome-session-manager. AFAICT running nvidia-settings --load-config-only
 in the absence of a .nvidia-settings-rc or even the NVidia driver merely
 fails silently, so I don't think this idea poses a danger for non-NVidia
 users.

Patches would be welcome, both for documentation and for autostart scripts.

  This seems the right thing to do, if the user puts a special
 setting in the nvidia-settings program then it expects that setting to
 remain for the next reboot and not to have to load the program to apply
 the setting again.
  I use all default settings but anyway...
  Thanks for looking this.
  Have a nice day!!!

At least there could be a button Save these settings as defaults or 
whatever.
(I must admit, I'm packaging this, but I'm not actively using it)

 I don't have any problems with libGL.

xorg does not automatically use the nvidia driver without setting this
in /etc/X11/xorg.conf. Or did you find a way to do so? In that case we
would like to learn this. An xorg.conf with Driver=nvidia breaks on
other systems.
Please check Xorg.0.log on the nvidia machine to see which driver you
are really using.

nvidia has its own accelerated libGL.so.1 library which replaces the
system one which is from mesa. There is also a custom libglx.so Xorg
module which replaces the one from X.org. Of course these need the
nvidia driver to be functional. While it is now possible to configure
the libGL.so.1 and libglx.so via alternatives, there is nothing that
does autodetection and selects the optimal setup for the current system.

Please send me the output of
update-alternatives --display libGL.so.1

 nvidia doesn't use kms, but I quite shure, that xorg loads nvidia
 driver (if
 nvidia card presents), not udev by accessing /dev/nvidia0 or
 /dev/nvidiactl,
 anyway xorg loads modules for non kms drivers.

In case the device nodes are missing in /dev, does Xorg really load the
kernel module?

Bug#627119: nvidia-glx ext are loaded but compiz/kde-effects causes Xserver freeze

 Package: nvidia-glx

 Severity: important
 
 after last (3-4 days ago) wheezy update (nvidia drivers, libc etc) there a
not to forget Xorg 1.9 - 1.10
 problem that makes login to system with enabled compiz or kde-kwin effect
 imposible (Xserver freeze).
 i've got enabled nvidia extensions (that's why kde's trying to turn on kwin-
 effects) log below.
 My graphic card's geforce 7300LE

An interesting test would be to downgrade Xorg to 1.9 (old packages can
be found on http://snapshot.debian.org/) and test again in this setup to
see if the problem is related to the Xorg upgrade (this does not mean
it's a bug in Xorg 1.10 - could be just bad interaction between nvidia
and Xorg 1.10). If that does not solve the problem, downgrading the
driver (260.xx was previously in testing/wheezy) would be the next step,
which hopefully should restore the working setup.

Anyway, there is not much we can do about this, the problem needs to be
reported to nvidia directly. To do this, follow the instructions here:
http://www.nvnews.net/vbulletin/showthread.php?t=46678
Please post an URL to a forum thread you created (or an existing one
describing exactly the same problem where you might provide more
information). That way we can follow progress and have a pointer for
other useres that may encounter the same problem.

In case you test downgrading to do some regression tests you should run
nvidia-bug-report.sh in each configuration and collect the generated
output files, as the difference between the setups might give some clues.
Different configurations already mean the current setup without effects
(if I understood you correctly, this is working) and with effects, when
it's crashing.

Thanks.

Andreas

PS: if you have binutils-gold installed, remove this package and
reinstall nvidia-kernel-dkms afterwards

I investigated this problem again, bisected gnuplot, opened a new
upstream bug and constructed a new testcase that more clearly
demonstrates what's happening:

plot x

pause -1
print closing window
set term wxt close
print window closed

$ gnuplot ../test2.gnuplot
use xkill to terminate the window, then press return
unknown: Fatal IO error 0 (Success) on X server localhost:10.0.

closing window
^C^Z

$ kill %1

More details can be found in upstream bug report.

This problem has not been fixed in current 4.4.x release or CVS.
It is not present in 4.2.x

Hi Marcin,
thanks for testing several combinations. Now it seems pretty clear that
the problem is independent from the Xorg version and according to the
forum thread it may be related to GeForce 7300 GPUs.
Now we can only hope for a new upstream release fixing this issue.

Bug#629418: nvidia-glx: PowerMizer doesn't detect change in power source

 Package: nvidia-glx

 Severity: normal
 
 I have set up nvidia's PowerMizer to use different profiles on mains
 and battery power as documented at
 http://tutanhamon.com.a/technovodstvo/NVIDIA-UNIX-driver/ , however
incorrect URL

 according to nvidia-settings the laptop is always on mains power, even
 when it's actually running off the battery:
 
 $ nvidia-settings -q GPUPowerSource -t
 0

I get the same result on my laptop using 270.41.06 driver and several
versions of nvidia-settings. But I never looked at this before, so I
can't say whether this was working with older releases.
Eventually a driver problem.

 I noticed that OpenSUSE running on the same laptop detects the power
 source correctly, so might this have something to do withpackaging?

I don't think so. But as the nvidia-settings package is built from free
source code, you might want to try the binary built by nvidia. Download
the driver *.run file from
ftp://download.nvidia.com/XFree86/Linux-x86_64/ to a temporary directory
and run it with the --extract-only command line option so that it does
not start the installer. The nvidia-settings binary can be found in the
root of the tree that is being extracted. Switch to that directory and run
./nvidia-settings -q GPUPowerSource -t

 Looks like I have 260.19.44 installed on openSUSE and 270.41.19 on
 this debian system.

Downgrading to 260.xx does not work due to missing support for Xorg
1.10, but eventually you could try the newer driver from experimental
(275.xx) and see if this was fixed.

A quick search in the NVIDIA forum found the following threads:
