--- Begin Message ---Package: xutils Version: 4.3.0.dfsg.1-10 Severity: normal File: /usr/X11R6/bin/luit luit sometimes doesn't restore terminal settings corretcly, which results in echo and other flags being turned off. example: luit echo foo results in echo turned off (no typed input being seen). It doesn't happen deterministically and seems to be completely independent of the locale and the program. The following script demonstrates it on my system: #!/usr/bin/bash stty sane for((i=0;i<10000;i++)); do stty -a >/tmp/a luit echo -n stty -a >/tmp/b stty sane diff -u a b done This shows a difference in roughly 33 of 10000 tries on my system, but statistics vary. The diff is like this: --- a 2005-01-19 00:08:00.806405713 +0100 +++ b 2005-01-19 00:08:00.810404774 +0100 @@ -1,10 +1,11 @@ speed 38400 baud; rows 35; columns 142; line = 208; intr = ^C; quit = ^\; erase = ^?; kill = ^U; eof = ^D; eol = <undef>; eol2 = <undef>; start = ^Q; stop = ^S; susp = ^Z; rprnt = ^R; werase = ^W; -lnext = ^V; flush = ^O; min = 1; time = 0; +lnext = ^V; flush = ^O; min = 0; time = 0; -parenb -parodd cs8 -hupcl -cstopb cread -clocal -crtscts --ignbrk brkint ignpar -parmrk -inpck -istrip -inlcr -igncr icrnl -ixon -ixoff +-ignbrk brkint ignpar -parmrk -inpck -istrip -inlcr -igncr -icrnl -ixon -ixoff -iuclc -ixany imaxbel -opost -olcuc -ocrnl onlcr -onocr -onlret -ofill -ofdel nl0 cr0 tab0 bs0 vt0 ff0 -isig icanon iexten echo echoe echok -echonl -noflsh -xcase -tostop -echoprt +opost -olcuc -ocrnl -onlcr -onocr -onlret -ofill -ofdel nl0 cr0 tab0 bs0 vt0 +ff0 +-isig -icanon iexten -echo echoe echok -echonl -noflsh -xcase -tostop -echoprt echoctl echoke Sometimes, luit will hang completely. Attaching strace to luit in this case gives the following output: Process 14230 attached - interrupt to quit write(2, "Couldn\'t copy terminal settings\n", 32) = 32 exit_group(1) = ? Process 14230 detached and exits. It looks like there is a race condition inside luit. It is likely an upstream issue because similar behaviour can be demonstrated ona fedora 3 system. -- System Information: Debian Release: 3.1 APT prefers testing APT policy: (700, 'testing'), (500, 'unstable') Architecture: i386 (i686) Kernel: Linux 2.6.9 Locale: LANG=C, LC_CTYPE=de_DE.UTF-8 (charmap=UTF-8) Versions of packages xutils depends on: ii cpp 4:3.3.5-1 The GNU C preprocessor (cpp) hi libc6 2.3.2.ds1-20 GNU C Library: Shared libraries an ii libncurses5 5.4-4 Shared libraries for terminal hand ii xfree86-common 4.3.0.dfsg.1-10 X Window System (XFree86) infrastr ii zlib1g 1:1.2.2-3 compression library - runtime -- no debconf information
