Package: hexchat Version: 2.16.0-4+b2 Severity: grave Justification: renders package unusable
Dear Maintainer, When connecting hexchat to my bip server it locks up hard. It use to work fine, until I upgraded to 2.16. The bip server connects to OFTC, and when I connect to it, the application just stops. That is the screen is blank, none of the buttons react to anything. When I do: ps -efL | grep hexchat: rostedt 8509 6845 8509 0 4 22:19 ? 00:00:00 hexchat rostedt 8509 6845 8521 0 4 22:19 ? 00:00:00 hexchat rostedt 8509 6845 8522 0 4 22:19 ? 00:00:00 hexchat rostedt 8509 6845 8550 0 4 22:19 ? 00:00:00 hexchat Then look at: $ cat /proc/8509/wchan futex_wait_queue $ cat /proc/8521/wchan do_sys_poll $ cat /proc/8522/wchan do_sys_poll $ cat /proc/8550/wchan do_sys_poll It appears that a thread holds a futex (pthread_mutex?) and is then doing a poll() system call and never returning. The main thread is then stuck doing nothing, and the application hangs. The only way to stop it is to send a signal to it. It connects to other servers fine, just not my bip proxy. But it use to work before this upgrade. I do not remember what the older version was, but I upgrade my system once a month, so whatever the debian version of it was back in March was the last version that worked for me. -- System Information: Debian Release: bookworm/sid APT prefers stable-security APT policy: (1000, 'stable-security'), (990, 'testing') Architecture: amd64 (x86_64) Foreign Architectures: i386 Kernel: Linux 5.17.3-custom (SMP w/4 CPU threads; PREEMPT) Locale: LANG=en_US.UTF-8, LC_CTYPE=en_US.UTF-8 (charmap=UTF-8), LANGUAGE not set Shell: /bin/sh linked to /bin/dash Init: systemd (via /run/systemd/system) Versions of packages hexchat depends on: ii hexchat-common 2.16.0-4 ii libc6 2.33-7 ii libcanberra0 0.30-10 ii libdbus-glib-1-2 0.112-2 ii libgdk-pixbuf-2.0-0 2.42.8+dfsg-1 ii libglib2.0-0 2.72.0-1+b1 ii libgtk2.0-0 2.24.33-2 ii libpango-1.0-0 1.50.6+ds-2 ii libssl1.1 1.1.1k-1+deb11u2 ii libx11-6 2:1.7.5-1 Versions of packages hexchat recommends: ii ca-certificates 20211016 ii hexchat-lua 2.16.0-4+b2 ii hexchat-perl 2.16.0-4 ii hexchat-plugins 2.16.0-4+b2 ii hexchat-python3 2.16.0-4+b2 ii libglib2.0-bin 2.72.0-1+b1 Versions of packages hexchat suggests: ii hexchat-otr 0.2.2-3 pn unifont <none> -- no debconf information
