One alternative would be to ship those ciphers as a module for OpenSSL,
this already happens with the Russian GOST ciphers via the
libengine-gost-openssl package.

Re: Help needed with a dh_shlibs failure on non amd64 platforms

x86_64-linux-gnu is only valid for amd64.

Help needed with a dh_shlibs failure on non amd64 platforms

[Martin Quinson]

Hello all,

I come to you because I'm puzzled with a bug I have in one of my package, and
I'm seeking for help. Please CC me when answering as I'm not on this list.

The package is ns3, a scientific simulator of computer networks. This package is
huge, I seem to be the only active maintainer, but upstream is very
collaborative.

Upstream just moved from a build system called waf to cmake, which is an nice
move. They introduced a small python script saving the waf interface to their
users that don't like changes, and unfortunately the raw cmake interface is not
usable yet (cmake checks on files created by the script), so I cannot use the
plain classical cmake build in debian/rules. I did my best to mimick the
behavior of `dh --buildsystem=cmake` but I have a strange failure on non-amd64
platforms:
https://buildd.debian.org/status/package.php?p=ns3

The build, tests and install targets go well, until dh_shlibdeps. At that step,
I get a huge bunch of errors like the following:
```

This specific one is for arm64, but I get exactly the same problem for all
platforms but amd64.
https://buildd.debian.org/status/fetch.php?pkg=ns3&arch=arm64&ver=3.36.1%2Bdfsg-2&stamp=1656893780&raw=0

All libraries (eg libns3-bridge.so.36.1) that it cannot find are part of the
package. They are added to the debian/libns3.36/DEBIAN/shlibs a few lines above
in the build log, and dh_strip found them further above in the log. What really
puzzles me is that the package builds fine on amd64 and i386. 

The package is uptodate on salsa, in case someone wants to test something
directly on the package. Fear not to do so, this package only takes one hour to
build on my machine :)

If you wonder, the cmake macro to define and build a library is in 
  ns-3.36.1/build-support/custom-modules/ns3-module-macros.cmake
I already had to patch it to support Debian

[adduser] populating users group even in a usergroups system?

[Marc Haber]

Hi,

/usr/share/doc/base-passwd/users-and-groups.txt.gz currently suggests
that the 'users' group is only populated on a system without
usergroups. This would make the users group empty when adduser changes
to having usergroups on by default.

I am now wondering whether a new non-system user should end up in the
users group automatically even if it has its own group created, making
adduser's behavior regarding the users group independent of whether
usergroups are used or not.

What do you think?

Greetings
Marc

P.S.. If adduser gets changed, I will file a bug against base-passwd
to have the docs updated as well, of course

[adduser] default group for 'dynamically allocated system users'

[Marc Haber]

Hi,

adduser has been putting newly created 'dynamically allocated system
users' (adduser --system) into the nogroup group. It is also
documented to do so. There is an ancient bug report complaining about
this, and I think this is a valid complaint. However,
/usr/share/doc/base-passwd/users-and-groups.txt.gz says that no files
should ever be owned by nogroup, making adduser do the right thing in
its current state.

Can you come up with a better default for users created with adduser
--system without requesting a dedicated group?

Greetings
Marc
