Debian supports all kinds of installation methods. Looks to me like you 
simply did not try the correct one. For installations from USB stick you 
should use the hd-media installation method.

Please see our installation guide.

Re: Getting d-i to find firmware on the CD generated by debian-cd

2010-03-16 Thread Petter Reinholdtsen
[Petter Reinholdtsen]
 Yesterday, I figured out a workaround for this, and I wanted to
 share the solution with the rest of you, and ask if perhaps the
 default behaviour of debian-cd or d-i (hw-detect) should change to
 make this workaround unneeded.

Further testing of this fix proved that it is insufficient.  hw-detect
call check-missing-firmware, which look on several devices (disk, USB
sticks, floppies) for firmware, but fail to look on the CD itself.
This, I must admit, is very sad.  I had a look at the source of
check-missing-firmware and saw it was looking in the firmware/
directory of several devices, and assumed it would also check the boot
media, but no. :(

Should hw-detect also look for firmware on the CD?

Happy hacking,

 Thank you for quick response. Do you mean that copying
 hd-media/boot.img.gz and .iso image to USB Flash will result in
 different installation behavior than preparing USB Flash with LiveUSB
 Creator and plain .iso image?

I have no idea what LiveUSB Creator does. But if it only uses what's on the 
image it cannot work since, as you noticed, the installation image 
included on that will look for a CD *drive* instead of for a CD *image*.
The main feature of the hd-media installation image is that it looks for CD 
images.

I think the problem with that is that including the firmware on the CD in 
the first place is in contradiction with Debian's current policy not to 
include firmware in the distribution.
The current firmware support is very explicitly limited to support loading 
from external media *prepared by the user*.

An additional issue with non-free firmware is that including it in the way 
you propose would (I think) mean it will get loaded without any prompting 
of the user, which may in some cases violate licence terms.

I can see that others may want to do things differently, but I'm not sure 
how much we can/should support that in standard D-I functionality.

One option you have is to implement a custom, alternative version of
'mountmedia' for d-edu.

Cheers,
FJP

P.S. Personally I would like to have more default support for loading 
firmware, but IMO we cannot do that without discussion with the rest of 
the project.

i thought the same at first, but actually that's not the case. The user is 
still asked (by the package) if she wants to accept the licence. (As no 
preseeding takes place.)

So there is only the issue of having the firmwares accessable in the first 
place, which should be preseeded/preseedable just like using non-free.


cheers,
Holger

P.S.: should this be moved to a proper bug?

Well, the use case I am working on would be identical for a user who
prepared a CD or DVD, so I believe it should work the same way with
CDs and USB sticks. :)

 the way you propose would (I think) mean it will get loaded without

 terms.

Perhaps.  I have not gotten to a point where I can test what happen.
I believe the .deb will be installed normally into /target/ and
display the license question at that point, but do not know yet. :)

 I can see that others may want to do things differently, but I'm not
 sure how much we can/should support that in standard D-I
 functionality.

I'm working on a patch for hw-detect.

 One option you have is to implement a custom, alternative version of
 'mountmedia' for d-edu.

Actually, something causes main-menu to crash if I adjust mountmedia
to return CD devices too, so I suspect it is better to adjust
check-missing-firmware to also look in /cdrom/firmware/ for debs.
This is the approach I am testing at the moment.

Anyone know how the PXE installation can be adjusted to load firmware
automatically from the .debs?  I want servers with network cards
needing firmware to work with PXE installation. :)

Installer fails due to invalid signatures

2010-03-16 Thread steve clark

Good morning,

I sent a report to the debian bug reporting system (bug number 573791) but 
it seems to not have been taken serious, being shuffled between responsible 
owners.


In short, a new net install fails completely everything time due to invalid 
signatures.


A mirror install fails every time due to invalid signatures.

A non mirror install fail on the security updates due to invalid signatures.

And finally any current install fails on security updates due to invalid 
signatures.


Not sure which section it is that ought look into this, but someone probably 
should.


Happens with other lives debian based systems (e.g. ubuntu 9.10 server) too.

I'm a novice Debian user (4 months), but have over 25 years across multiple 
systems and am a professional developer, so think I can recognise a must 
look at problem when I see one :) If it were only current installs that went 
wrong, I'd accept a user tweak being possible (though none of the suggested 
work arounds work), but for the new install to collapse 100% of the time 
isn't good.


Thanks,

Steve Clark

Good evening,

I notice the bug has been re-assigned to the CD-ROM team.

I'm not sure this is the most appropriate assignment, as further tests here
have shown it also affects ubuntu server 9.10 installs too.

I would suggest the problem lies with the latest security packages'
signatures.

If someone more experienced with debian installations could try a clean
install for Debian 5.04 CD (linux system only - not using mirrors), select
appropriate values for /etc/apt/sources and executre apt-get update they may
recognise the problem immediately.

I would further suggest that as it prevents any new installations of Debian
since at least 11th March 2010, its serverity is a little higher than
normal.

Thanks,

Steve Clark

But that's only at the point where the package gets installed in the target

IMO a proper solution would ensure the licence dialog gets displayed before 
the firmware first gets loaded by the installer.

Probably because the CD is already mounted and in use and mountmedia messes 
that up?

Bug#574116: hw-detect: Should look for firmware packages on CD and DVD too

2010-03-16 Thread Petter Reinholdtsen

Package: hw-detect
Version: 1.75
Tags:patch
User:debian-...@lists.debian.org
Usertag: debian-edu

When building a custom CD with firmware packages on the CD, and
symlinked from firmware/ to ../pool/non-free/, the packages are not
found by debian-installer.  In fact, as far as I can see, there is no
way to put the firmware packages on a custom CD and get d-i to find
them.

I believe it should be possible to create a custom CD with the
firmware packages included, and propose to change hw-detect to make
sure it is able to find firmware packages on the CD.  To avoid
cluttering the root, I propose to put such firmware debs in a
firmware/ subdirectory on the CD, and populate it with symlinks to the
debs in the APT repository on the CD.  See 
URL: http://lists.debian.org/debian-cd/2010/03/msg00023.html  for a
description on how to do this using debian-cd.

If the deb include a license question displayed using debconf, the
question will still be presented when the deb is installed into
/target/, so the machine will not be set up to use non-free firmware
without notification.  The non-free section of the mirror will not be
enabled automatically, so any updates to the firmware will not be
installed automatically.

This untested patch should implement my proposed change.

 * Copy files using cp -aL to make sure not to copy symlinks but the
   files pointed to by the symlinks.

 * Add code to first check /cdrom/firmware/ for debs, and the look for
   individual firmware files and debs and udebs on other media.  Move
   code to check debs and udebs to a new function to avoid copying
   code.  Not sure if it should look for udebs too.

I see it differently: you have an installation problem that nobody else is 
having and have not quite found the correct way to report it.

The reason your bug report was reassigned is that the original report had 
an incorrect syntax. So it is *not* being shuffled around; someone was 
merely trying to correct your incorrect initial reporting.
And please understand that reporting an issue incorrectly drastically 
increases the chance that it will be missed!

 Happens with other lives debian based systems (e.g. ubuntu 9.10 server)
 too.

Please report issues with Ubuntu installs to Ubuntu.

 I'm a novice Debian user (4 months), but have over 25 years across
 multiple systems and am a professional developer, so think I can
 recognise a must look at problem when I see one :)

In that case I would also expect you to recognize when a problem is so 
completely unlikely to escape the attention of the project publishing the 
software that it may well by an issue that's solely due to the 
inexperience of the user?
I can assure you that, if Lenny really was not installable, we would be 
flooded with reports. Fortunately that has not happened.

The fact that you consistently see the issue could also be explained by the 
fact that you're doing something consistently wrong maybe.

!! I have just tried an install using the 5.04 netinst and using the
!! ftp.uk.debian.org mirror without any problems.

There may have been a temporary problem with that particular mirror. If 
there was it appears to be solved now. Did you try different mirrors?

 I would further suggest that as it prevents any new installations of
 Debian since at least 11th March 2010, its serverity is a little higher
 than normal.

*If* the issue is confirmed to be a real issue *and* really affects all 
installations and not simply one isolated mirror, then yes. Until then a 
much more appropriate categorization is unreproducible, needs additional 
info.


Now, to try to solve your problem, assuming that you can still reproduce 
it, we will need additional information.

Please send us the syslog of a failed installation. You should be able to 
save it using the Save debug logs option in the main menu of the 
installer.
Please gzip the syslog before sending it and send your reply _only_ to 
573...@bugs.debian.org.

Bug#573791: apt-get update in Debian 5.04 (lenny) failing since updates of 2010-03-11

2010-03-16 Thread Frans Pop
 Please note this log is taken just now using:
 debian 5.04 netinst business card image

I have just tried with the same image (for i386), using ftp.nl.d.o as 
mirror without any problems. My log looks similar to you, except that I 
get good signatures...

From my log:

I wonder if somehow the files are getting corrupted during download.

Can you copy the following two files from the installer after a debootstrap 
failure and send them:
/target/var/lib/apt/lists/debootstrap.invalid_dists_lenny_Release
/target/var/lib/apt/lists/debootstrap.invalid_dists_lenny_Release.gpg

The first one should be zipped again.

 IMO a proper solution would ensure the licence dialog gets displayed before

The only relevant firmware package I can find that prompts with a license is
firmware-ipw2x00. This was discussed in #504668 when they added the license
prompt to the package:

| Note: If one gets the firmware-ipw2100 packages, then copy it on a usb

I don't know if #449235's conclusions about this are right. Though the FAQ can
be read that way, it's just a FAQ, not a legal document. But it's worth
considering before going too far down the rabbit hole of creating a way for
d-i to display the license earlier than it does now.

 But that's only at the point where the package gets installed in the target

I checked, and the assumption that the firmware deb's debconf prompt is
displayed seems to be untrue:

hw-detect.post-base-installer.d/50install-firmware:
for deb in /var/cache/firmware/*.deb; do
if [ -f $deb ]; then
cp -a $deb /target/tmp
# TODO debconf passthrough
if ! in-target dpkg -i /tmp/$(basename $deb); then
# dpkg failed, force removal of package
in-target dpkg --force-depends --remove 
$(deb_package $deb) || true
fi

in-target does not provide debconf passthrough, and apt-install cannot
be used here.

To use debconf passthrough here would require ripping the passthrough setup
code out of debconf-apt-progress, It might be more expedient to make a
pkgsel hook that uses apt-install to re-download and install the firmware
debs.

 True, but pc104 works only for people having a pc104 keyboard while
 pc105 works for both.

Currently, keyboard-configuration defaults to pc104 for the Brazilian

 This is because the only purpose of keyboard-configuration is to create

 keyboard in any way.

This is rather confusing, as other Debian packages tend to take their
reconfiguration into effect immediately. Please consider at least
printing an informative message after the reconfiguration what should
the user do for the layout to actually change.

Bug#574158: firmware licenses never displayed

2010-03-16 Thread Joey Hess
Package: hw-detect
Severity: important

firmware-ipw2100 has a license prompt that is supposed to be displayed
to the user. If this firmware is loaded by d-i from media supplied by
the user, this prompt is never actually displayed.

In #504668, it's claimed that the license's FAQ allows this,
which is the only reason I have not made this bug serious, yet.
Conversely, in #449235, decisions seem to be made assuming that
d-i will display the firmware prompt.

I see three approaches to fixing this bug:

1. Change the post-base-installer hook to not install firmware debs
   with dpkg -i. It needs to use apt for debconf frontend proxying to
   work. One approach might be to move this to a pkgsel hook, and use
   the already available firmware debs to prepopulate
   /var/cache/apt/archives, so they don't have to be downloaded again.
   Only problem with this approach is it fails if the user, in
   apt-setup, chooses not to use non-free, or even chooses to install
   without a network mirror. In this case, the installed system might
   end up without firmware needed to boot.

2. Rip the debconf frontend proxy setup code out of
   debconf-apt-progress, and adapt so it can be used with dpkg -i.
   Or hack debconf-apt-progress to support running dpkg -i.

3. Provide some way for firmware debs to communicate to d-i that they
   have a license the user needs to see, and have check-missing-firmware
   display these licenses before the firmware is ever used. This is
   probably the most general approach, as it will allow us to support
   firmware where it's a hard requirement that the user sees the license.
   (Which may already be the case, depending on which lawyers you ask?)

   One way would be to add a header to the firmware deb:

   License-Agreement: /usr/share/doc/firmware-ipw2x00/copyright

This is the option that I have had in the back of my mind for some time.

I think for really structural support of firmware, we could repackage it 
like we do for kernel modules and include meta data (partially? 
automatically generated) about the deb something was taken from + licence 
requirements.

That would also allow to e.g. skip old versions of firmware.

My personal opinion is that it should actually be quite OK to include 
non-free firmware *udebs* on (CD) images as long as
- the licence in no way limits distribution;
- we never allow use of any non-free firmware without explicit ack
  by the user.

The *debs* should IMO always be either downloaded from a mirror (using 
standard apt-install) with fallback support for installing them from an 
external medium.

Under those conditions I think the project might be persuaded to accept 
inclusion of firmware in D-I images and on CDs.

We should of course keep support for loading firmware that does not match 
these criteria from external media.

Hey,

Looks like this bug hasn't seen action for quite a while. It seems like
in the meantime, Ubuntu has fixed this bug. Check out this patch:

http://launchpadlibrarian.net/18656164/cdrom-detect-better-flow.patch

This code is in their current version of cdrom-detect and seems to work
well in the exact same situation that d-i fails. Can we get this patch
backported?

I can do a NMU if there is no real maintainer willing to step up.

 This is rather confusing, as other Debian packages tend to take their

The only purpose of keyboard-configuration is to create 
/etc/default/keyboard and after dpkg-reconfigure the package only 
updates this file. It is not the purpose of keyboard-configuration to 
change the state of the keyboard in any way.  

It is difficult for keyboard-configuration to tell how many packages of 
Debian are using /etc/default/keyboard and what command is required in 
order to enforce the changes in this file.  The current Debian policy 
does not permit the use of 'Note' Debconf-template in order to present 
the user with unimportant messages because they tend to become annoying. 
If console-setup is installed then the required information to setup the 
console is in /usr/share/doc/console-setup/README.gz.  I don't know what 
is the proper method to update the keyboard in X or in BSD or in Hurd.

Problem with local repository

2010-03-16 Thread Hugo Alberto Perlin
Hello,
I'm trying to install Debian using the NetInst CD and a local repository
created using the apt-mirror app.
The installation with the local repository make the downloads of the first
part well. But in the second part, when it need
5 files, it requires the internet. Anybody knows what could be happen?

Thanks.

Thanks for the pointer.

 This code is in their current version of cdrom-detect and seems to work
 well in the exact same situation that d-i fails. Can we get this patch
 backported?

Part of the patch is already in our code. I've ported the rest and done 
some additional refactoring. Will commit after testing in the next few 
days.

 I can do a NMU if there is no real maintainer willing to step up.

An NMU (upload not from the D-I SVN repo) is never really a solution in the 
case of D-I as it tends to increase rather than reduce the work for 
maintainers. In general NMUs should not be needed where packages are 
maintained by a generally active team.
It also seems not indicated in this case as this is the first time a patch 
has been suggested for the issue.

Providing (preferably tested) patches against current SVN helps maintainers 
a lot more and is very much appreciated. Pinging maintainers on bug 
reports is also always appreciated.

Cheers,
FJP

Are you sure that the packages in your local repository have a higher 
package version than the ones available on the mirror (including security 
updates!)?

An NMU is not required (and does not really reduce the work of maintainers 
anyway).

But a proper patch, preferably tested, that applies to the current version 
of the source package and that does not log messages saying Ubuntu would 
be most welcome. I would suggest changing the message to ... is not a 
valid installation CD (especially as it does not actually test if it is a 
Debian or Ubuntu CD; if you'd happen to have a Debian CD in one drive and 
an Ubuntu CD in the other, it would accept either...).

FJP

Please ignore this mail. Apparently I had two versions open and by mistake

The first part I mean the part before select what kind of installation, like
Desktop, Data Base Server, Web Server... The second part is after that.



 Are you sure that the packages in your local repository have a higher
 package version than the ones available on the mirror (including security

Yes, the repository is sincronized every day with the debian mirror. The
mirror.list is:

deb http://ftp.br.debian.org/debian lenny main contrib non-free
deb-src http://ftp.br.debian.org/debian lenny main contrib non-free

Towards X11-based d-i: Gone through NEW

2010-03-16 Thread Cyril Brulebois
Hi,

during the past days, I've been busy getting my changes merged into
Debian packages, getting them uploaded, and getting them through
NEW. Besides the X11-related packages I took care of, I should list
udev, cairo, pango1.0, gtk+2.0, vte, and gtk2-engines.

Their respective maintainers were very quick at merging them, and ftp
folks VERY quick at accepting the several rounds of packages including
new udebs.

Current situation:
==
 * udev is ready in unstable.
 * X11 packages (server, drivers, libraries)  are ready in unstable.

 * cairo, pango1.0, gtk+2.0, vte, gtk2-engines are ready in
   experimental [gnome 2.30 rc packages].

 * cairo is additionally ready in unstable [gnome 2.28 packages].

Right now, I spotted a few issues:
 * Missing version bump in Build-Depends, resulting in a dependency of
   libpango1.0-udeb → libcairo-directfb2-udeb. Should be trivial to
   fix.
 * An extra dependency in experimental: libcairo2-udeb → libstdc++6.

At first, I thought “the latter seems to be the result of the addition
of a qt backend in the latest cairo packages (only in experimental,
the unstable udeb is OK). It should be easy to disable the qt part
through a configure option for the udeb though.”

But we even have:
| dpkg-shlibdeps: warning: dependency on libstdc++.so.6 could be avoided if 
debian/libcairo2/usr/lib/libcairo.so.2.10906.0 were not uselessly linked 
against it (they use none of its symbols).

Due to those issues, I couldn't build a netboot-gtk image to
double-check that modified d-i packages (see below) were leading to a
working image again.

Proposed plan:
==
(1)
In order to get everyone ready, I'd suggest (kindly) asking pkg-gnome
folks to upload their 2.28 packages to unstable; so that the remaining
packages can be rebuilt against them. I think it'd be nice not to wait
and get entangled in the gnome 2.30 transition, that's why I'd like to
go with the 2.28 ones (which were working fine for me). It'd be nice
to make sure there's no directfb stuff left in Depends, before it gets
uploaded. ;)

(2)
Once that done, I'll rebuild the following d-i packages against them:
 * cdebconf
 * cdebconf-entropy
 * cdebconf-terminal
 * rootskel-gtk
(I'm going to file bugs against them in a few minutes anyway.)

(3)
If the resulting image boots fine, I'll be reporting here, and asking
for those patches to be merged. If there are issues, I'll file bugs to
fix those, and then report here, asking for those patches to be
merged.

(4)
If everything goes alright at this point, I think we should be able to
migrate the whole set of packages to testing, so that further updates
only require to migrate a few packages at a time.


Comments etc. welcome, as usual.

Mraw,
KiBi.
