Package: gconf2
Version: 2.24.0-7
Severity: important

  Hi,

  I've been upgrading a remote server with ssh. The remote server was not
running any gconfd-2 process. 
  Several packages fail to configure. For example, libgksu2-0:

Paramétrage de libgksu2-0 (2.0.9-1) ...
Traceback (most recent call last):
  File "/usr/sbin/gconf-schemas", line 82, in <module>
    pids=os.popen('pidof gconfd-2').readlines()[0].split()
OSError: [Errno 9] Bad file descriptor
dpkg : erreur de traitement de libgksu2-0 (--configure) :
 le sous-processus post-installation script a retourné une erreur de sortie 
d'état 1

  I was thinking this was related to ubuntu bugs 33421 but I just see that the
ubuntu pach is already applied in the Debian package. So I do not know.

  Regards,
    Vincent

  Hi,

  I think I've found the 'bug'. This machine is running a 2.6.26 kernel
patched with perfmon.
Looking at the small python program
====
import os
pids=os.popen('pidof gconfd-2').readlines()[0].split()
====
with the strace utility, I saw that a 293 syscall is done. It means
pfm_start on this machine but I suspect that the syscall comes from
the libc and that the libc expect to find the new pipe2 syscall.

I will reboot the machine and try with a non-patched kernel. But I
already close this bug as I'm very confident in the cause of the bug.

  Regards,
    Vincent
