Package: libc0.1 Version: 2.13-2 Severity: important User: [email protected] Usertags: kfreebsd
[Mostly a summary of http://lists.debian.org/debian-bsd/2011/05/msg00038.html and http://lists.debian.org/debian-bsd/2011/05/msg00039.html] After dist-upgrading libc0.1 and friends (i.e. all(*) installed packages which are also built from eglibc source) from 2.11.2-something to 2.13-2 inside io's and asdfasdf's sid, calling "dchroot sid" segfaults on io and causes bus errors on asdfasdf: io:~# dchroot sid /bin/true Segmentation fault io:~# dchroot sid Segmentation fault io:~# asdfasdf:~# dchroot sid /bin/true Bus error asdfasdf:~# dchroot sid Bus error asdfasdf:~# Ah normal (but root only) "chroot /srv/chroot/sid" works on both machines, so I could at least fix it from the inside by downgrading libc0.1 and friends back to 2.11.2-13. Please note that the used dchroot command comes from DSA's version of dchroot-dsa (version 2:1.1), not from the one in the Debian archive. The latter does not show this problem according to Petr Salinger. I'm not sure where exactly the causing bug is located, it could be in eglibc, in DSA's dchroot, and maybe also in gcc-4.6 (with which libc0.1 2.13-2 very likely has been compiled). But as downgrading libc0.1 and friends helped to fix this regression, I'm filing it against libc0.1. I'm not filing this as RC as it is not yet reproducible with only packages from the official archive, but since porterboxes are affected I doubt that this is a less important issue. So feel free to raise the severity and/or reassign this bug. (*) locales is definitely not relevant here as I initially by accident just downgraded all architecture-dependent packages built from the eglibc source. -- System Information: Debian Release: wheezy/sid APT prefers unstable APT policy: (500, 'unstable') Architecture: kfreebsd-i386 (i686) Kernel: kFreeBSD 8.2-1-686 Locale: LANG=en_US.iso885915, LC_CTYPE=en_US.iso885915 (charmap=ISO-8859-15) Shell: /bin/sh linked to /bin/dash Versions of packages libc0.1 depends on: ii libc-bin 2.13-2 Embedded GNU C Library: Binaries ii libgcc1 1:4.6.0-7 GCC support library Versions of packages libc0.1 recommends: pn libc0.1-i686 <none> (no description available) Versions of packages libc0.1 suggests: ii debconf [debconf-2.0] 1.5.39 Debian configuration management sy pn glibc-doc <none> (no description available) ii locales 2.13-2 Embedded GNU C Library: National L ii locales-all [locales] 2.13-2 Embedded GNU C Library: Precompile -- debconf information: * glibc/restart-services: cron glibc/disable-screensaver: glibc/restart-failed: glibc/upgrade: true -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [email protected] with a subject of "unsubscribe".
