Bug#889717: Not booting to grub directly

Hi there,

I was able to get Grub working as the default boot-loader. Turns out
Win10 by default always tries to boot up.
* First I Switched off the Fast restart option from the settings menu.
* Then from the BIOS changed the boot order to Debian BOOT LOADER.

Thanks for getting back to me.
Debian freezes though, something I did not expect Debian to do. I
might soon make a separate bug report for it.

I boot up: sometimes it freezes right off the login screen, keyboard
mouse or key combinations(ctrl+alt+f1, ctrl+alt+*) don't work.

At other times the wicd(I use xfce desktop) cannot connect to my wifi,
then the system hangs and freezes. On both the occasions restarting
works. Most of the times I'm clueless and have to manually shut down
the laptop. Is their any event viewer or log where I can see what
happens during these events?

Thank you

Regards
Akash, India

Package: localechooser
Version: 2.75
Severity: normal
Tags: patch

Hi,

I spotted a minor issue in localechooser, because I've renamed the
gettext domains in iso-codes to better match the ISO standard. The old
gettext domains are still provided as symlinks, but eventually I'll
remove them.

So long story short: here is a patch for localechooser you might want to
apply.

Regards,
Tobias

As I've mentioned in the past, I think the usrmerge filesystem layout
has merit and can solve some issues, and to state it very clearly, I
have no technical issue with it *what*so*ever*. But the same can be
said about the non-usrmerge layout with multiple mount-points, which
while not general anymore in Debian, can still be used perfectly fine
on controlled subsets of packages and custom built kernels w/o reliance
on an initramfs.

What I still find to be terrible is the way it's been tried to be
deployed in Debian, via the usrmerge package, which does not support
reverting the change (#848626), for which there's (AFAIK) no way to
select not using this irreversible hack from d-i, which breaks
dpkg-query --search (at least #848622 and #858331). This seems like
a nice PoV for people to play with it, in the same way local admins
can use, to some extent, symlinks to redirect subtrees to other mount
points, but I don't see how this can be seen as a production-ready
solution shipped by default, TBH.

In any case, I looked the other day into implementing the
--map-pathname option for dpkg-query, and I've got most of the code
ready. The problem is that this requires adding support for config
files and config fragments to dpkg-query, which has the additional
problem of making it possible to mess with the --showformat option
and breaking the expectations from maintscripts, for example. The
other problem is with the search behavior changing depending on the
packages providing those mappings being installed (because dpkg would
certainly not provide them).


So I'll eventually try to find a solution for the dpkg-query issue,
because it's a long-standing paper-cut in dpkg for local admins. But
I'd not be very amused if this hack is enabled by default again and
suddenly RC bugs start popping up in dpkg again, and people start
pressuring with RCness to get those fixed again because well, it's
obviously breaking people's systems…


Thanks,
Guillem

Comments/Problems:

I believe (from memory) that the configure network took more than one try
and on a first installation (of 2) the install tasks page did not show up.

Second install was fine.

 

I used guided partitioning of the whole disk and was a little surprised

to be offered 1mb + 500+mb + balance to / + 4?gb swap + 1mb

Some explanation of the offering would have been useful.

The grub install options were somewhat alarming and I copped out and installed

grub to a separate partition but still wonder if this was necessary

Something I did notice yesterday by accident is that ldd points to
libraries being loaded from /lib. Which is fine except that then you
can't put them into dpkg -S because dpkg does not know about the
aliasing that happens here. I suppose this is because /lib/* is listed
before /usr/lib/* in /etc/ld.so.conf.d/*-linux-gnu.conf. I suppose if
one wants to use the output to find the packages associated, one needs
to roundtrip through realpath once. But then again you might miss files
actually installed by dpkg into /lib.

So I think the question of "is there buy-in from the dpkg maintainers to
support the outcome" is not a bad one. ;-)

Kind regards
Philipp Kern

Hi Ian,

You're not citing any concrete examples of things that will supposedly
break.

AFAICS the closest you got was:

On Sat, 10 Feb 2018, Ian Jackson  wrote:
> Another bad consequence is that some existing configurations that do
> not, for whatever reason, mount /usr early, will be harder to set up.

Which might be a fair point, except that late mounting of /usr became
explicitly unsupported with the release of Stretch:

  
https://www.debian.org/releases/stretch/armel/release-notes/ch-information.en.html#late-mounting-usr

The adoption of usrmerge was blocked before on the basis that it was too
late in the release cycle.  We are now fairly early in the release cycle.

That being the case, I think we should let the people volunteering to do
the work to get on with it without delay. That way there will be plenty
of time to address any real downsides that might be revealed.

Cheers, Phil.

P.S. I've not even installed usrmerge on any systems as yet, so please
don't assume that I'm a rabid supporter of this effort -- it just seems
entirely sane to me, whereas the pushback you pointed at ... not so much.

All dates equally OKish for me.

AFAICT:
 - There's a busybox I need to look at.
 - The kernel ABI bump is already in git, and we'll need a source upload
   accordingly.

debian-boot@ people, feel free to mention other things that should be in
the next stretch point release (ideally cc-ing me).
