Package: apt-dater Version: 0.8.0+svn431-1 Severity: grave Justification: renders package unusable
Somewhere between last week and this week, apt-dater stopped working for me. Symptoms: Of the 15 hosts that are configured, two (running debian testing) show up as "up to date" wrongly (updates are pending); the other 13 (running etch or lenny) show up as "unknown". Even after refreshing, this does not change. The problem seems to be on the host running apt-dater, as manually running the ssh command line from /usr/lib/apt-dater/cmd that is used for "refresh" produces no error and the output looks OK; that output is also saved in ~/.cache/apt-dater/stats/ , so I suppose the data is being gathered, but somehow misinterpreted by apt-dater. The last upgrades I did on the host running apt-dater (in between it working and breaking) were libc6, libglib2.0-0 and tcl8.5, so I suppose the problem lies with these upgrades somewhere. cm. -- System Information: Debian Release: squeeze/sid APT prefers testing APT policy: (990, 'testing'), (500, 'unstable'), (500, 'stable') Architecture: i386 (i686) Kernel: Linux 2.6.30-2-686-bigmem (SMP w/2 CPU cores) Locale: LANG=C, LC_CTYPE=de_AT.UTF-8 (charmap=UTF-8) Shell: /bin/sh linked to /bin/bash Versions of packages apt-dater depends on: ii libc6 2.10.2-2 GNU C Library: Shared libraries ii libglib2.0-0 2.22.3-1 The GLib library of C routines ii libncurses5 5.7+20090803-2 shared libraries for terminal hand ii libpopt0 1.15-1 lib for parsing cmdline parameters ii libxml2 2.7.6.dfsg-1 GNOME XML library ii openssh-client 1:5.1p1-8 secure shell client, an rlogin/rsh ii screen 4.0.3-14 terminal multiplexor with VT100/AN ii tcl8.5 8.5.8-2 Tcl (the Tool Command Language) v8 apt-dater recommends no packages.
