Package: klibc-utils Version: 1.5.10-1 Severity: serious Tags: d-i klibc cpio segfaults extracting various cpio files. It seems to work for small files, but fail for larger ones, including the d-i root floppy image.
For example: [EMAIL PROTECTED]:/tmp/empty>wget http://people.debian.org/~joeyh/d-i/images/20080401-09:01/floppy/root.img [EMAIL PROTECTED]:/tmp/empty>zcat root.img | sudo /usr/lib/klibc/bin/cpio -i zsh: broken pipe zcat root.img | zsh: segmentation fault sudo /usr/lib/klibc/bin/cpio -i Or: [EMAIL PROTECTED]:/bin>find . | cpio --quiet -o -H newc >|~/bin.cpio [EMAIL PROTECTED]:/bin>cd /tmp/empty [EMAIL PROTECTED]:/tmp/empty>sudo /usr/lib/klibc/bin/cpio -i < ~/bin.cpio zsh: segmentation fault sudo /usr/lib/klibc/bin/cpio -i < ~/bin.cpio Version 1.5.9-2 does not have this problem. I am not familiar with klibc enough to get a backtrace, but I hope this can easily be reproduced so you can.. Since this breaks d-i boot floppies, I've marked this RC, to avoid the broken one getting into testing. (However, d-i builds images using the version in unstable, so blocking it won't help entirely.) -- System Information: Debian Release: lenny/sid APT prefers unstable APT policy: (500, 'unstable'), (500, 'testing'), (500, 'stable') Architecture: i386 (i686) Kernel: Linux 2.6.25-2-686 (SMP w/1 CPU core) Locale: LANG=en_US.UTF-8, LC_CTYPE=en_US.UTF-8 (charmap=UTF-8) Shell: /bin/sh linked to /bin/bash Versions of packages klibc-utils depends on: ii libklibc 1.5.10-1 minimal libc subset for use with i klibc-utils recommends no packages. -- no debconf information -- see shy jo
