Bug#438671: coreutils: 'touch' documentation needs to be clarified

Symlinks create a fundamental operating interface between all
programs and the filesystem. They permeate everything that
operates on files in a fundamental way. Because they are a very
low level interface I don't believe it is possible nor appropriate
to note how symlinks affect everything everywhere. The best that
can be done is to learn how they affect the filesystem interface
and apply that model to all applications that operate on the
filesystem.
The touch command follows symlinks because generally everything
follows symlinks. The commands that do not follow symlinks are the
exceptions to that rule.
I'd say this is the opposite for commands that operate on meta-data
(such as 'touch').
I wanted to trim my quote but I was not sure to what part you were
referring to as being the opposite. I did not understand the meaning
of your statement. Sorry.
Touch simply open()s the file or calls utime{,s}() on the file. The
underlying filesystem then follows the symlink as expected. At least
as I expect it to do anyway. :-)
A symlink can never be an open file. That may help to understand part
of the operating model. Any operation that operates on an open file
descriptor won't be operating on the symlink. By getting to the open
file it will have already passed through the symlink and on to the
target.
The rm command is not an exception here because rm operates on
symbolic links normally.
It is an exception as it doesn't follow the symbolic links.
But in the case of removing file arguments there is no meaning to
following a symlink. The symlink itself is the file argument and it
is removed. Since rm is really performing a directory operation the
directory either includes the file argument and it is removed from the
directory or it does not and an error occurs.
On another level different from opening files to access the file
contents many filesystem commands are directory level commands. They
either add to or remove from the directory. The rm command is one of
those commands. It removes entries from the directory. Since the
file is never opened the value of the symlink is not used.
The ls command is an exception and where it handles symlinks
specially is documented.
The stat command (from the coreutils) is also an exception.
Okay, you got me on stat(1). But it is a new addition to coreutils.
Previously it was a standalone command. If it is not documented
appropriately for use with symlinks then that should certainly be
improved. However looking at the documentation now it looks to be
adequate. I don't like the wording personally and this will motivate
me to submit an update.
Ditto for chown and chgrp. I think that most commands that operate
on meta-data are exceptions!
Yes. So? Other commands are the majority such as cat, grep, sed,
cut, paste, join, and so on. The number of commands that operate on
the inode are a smaller set. I think this means that we are in
agreement here. (Not sure though.)
Recently, in the grand scheme of Unix time, symlinks were added and it
has taken a while for command to catch up by adding options to operate
on the symlink rather than the symlink target. These require
operating system support such as lstat(2) and lchown(2).
Note: chmod is a bit special because symlinks don't have file
permissions.
Well, BSD symlinks do not have modes anyway. SysV does have modes but
they are cosmetic only.
Also touch and chmod are different from other file
operations that follow the symlinks in the sense that they don't
return an error if the file doesn't exist:
But for different reasons.
vin:~ ln -s file link
This stores the string value file into the value of the file link.
If you look at the size of the resulting file you will see that it is
four characters long. Other values would create different sized
symlinks. The value is stored in the symlink and will be used by the
filesystem later if file access calls need to resolve through it.
There is no validation that the target name value stored there exists.
It can't because it does not need to exist when the symlink is
created. It might exist in the future. Or it might never exist. The
file resolution will be handled by the filesystem at the time access
is attempted.
Since the symlink was created successfully the command returns a
successful exit code. If the symlink cannot be created such as due to
insufficient permissions in the directory then a failing exit code
will be returned.
vin:~ touch -c link
This calls utimes(2) on link, which returns ENOENT (No such file or
directory), indicating that the file does not exist. Because the -c
option was given the file is not created if it does not exist and a
successful exit code is returned. If the -c had not been given then
touch would have opened link for writing and created the file. If it
was successful in creating the file it would have exited no error. If
Bug#438967: laptop-net: arp-discovery does not work on Xircom PCMCIA NIC
Package: laptop-net Version: 2.26-8 Severity: important I am using a setup with a static address and a catchall DHCP entry for other networks. I am attempting to use arp-discovery to detect the static address network by using the ip-map table to probe the upstream gateway. At this point, detection fails: arp-discovery definitely sends out ARP packets, however they are never recieved by the network card. This network card has problems with multicast and other related stuff and has to be put in promiscuous mode to use such things, which may be causing this problem. It also may be an issue that arp-discovery produces arp packets with invalid from IP address. (0.0.0.0) Which may be confusing the gateway or causing the packets to get mislaid. In attempting to diagnose this problem I have looked through the entirety of the laptop-net shell scripts without finding any obvious knobs to turn and have run arp-discovery with the network card up and properly connected to the static network where it still failed to recieve any responses. Has anyone had any experience with this or similar issues before? and are there any tricks / hints that could get this to work for me? I have not included the debconf information as this information has been superceded by custom configuration in the schemes and ip-map files. I will include them if requested, however there is nothing overly special in them.

When I moved that cursor to the top of the upper screen, hanging over the top edge, it also appeared at the top of the other monitor. I can consistently reproduce this. And the duplicate cursor goes away as soon as you leave the top of the screen? top of the screen only means the top-most line? top of the screen here means any position in which the cursor image hangs off the top edge of the screen. I can move several pixels down, and as long as the cursor image still goes off the top of the screen, the phantom cursor appears on the lower monitor. It doesn't occur with the non-busy cursor? Not that I've observed. However, the normal cursor cannot hang off the top edge, because it has its hot spot at the top of the cursor image. That may or may not relate to the bug. What if the put the busy cursor at the top of the screen and leave it there until it becomes non-busy again, does the duplicate cursor go away? Or do you get two non-busy cursors? It goes away. If you move the cursor horizontally on the top of the screen, do both duplicates move the same? Yes. I don't know which package causes this problem; it could represent a driver bug, an X server bug, or a hardware bug. I also don't know if it applies to unstable. The box I observed this on runs etch. I am voting for the driver, hence reassigning to xserver-xorg-video-ati.

The former contains some cursor-related cleanups, and it should be easy to backport to Etch (just a couple things to change in debian/control, let me know if you need help). The latter will require some new libs (at least libdrm2) so I'll understand if you don't want to even try backporting it.

Bug#438969: libxrandr2: Restoring the backlight uses inadequate values
Package: libxrandr2 Version: 2:1.2.1-1 Severity: normal I do have a Sony laptop, and I have mapped the function keys controlling the brightness of the display to a script setting values in /sys/class/backlight/sony. This works fine both in the console and within X up to the point where xscreensaver kicks in and sets the display to DPMS standby, suspend or off mode. After reactivating the computer the screensaver sets the brightness of the display using the xrandr extension not to the value the display brightness had before, but to the value which is still in memory. To make a long story short, xrandr should check the actual brightness of the display before it is changed. I am filing this bug against xrandr because the xbacklight tool shows the same behaviour, so I do not think that this is an xscreensaver problem. If I am wrong, please feel free to reassign the bug to another package.

I personally noticed it when I was changing forum software on an Ubuntu forum. Since the two forum applications had different ways of handling character sets I had to convert the forum database from latin1 to utf8 for the forum application to correctly pick up the characters. Of course, I was quite frustrated with the inability of the forum packages to deal with the character sets correctly but I also realised that the problem may have been non-existent if the database originally had been utf8. The suggested solution is to always compile the mysql package with utf8 as default character set. (./configure --with-charset=utf8) I am using Ubuntu 7.04, 2.6.20-16-generic kernel and libc6 2.5-0ubuntu14. The reason I am reporting this with Debian bugs and not with Ubuntu bugs / Launchpad is because I noticed it was - as I believe - as incorrect in the Debian package as it is in the Ubuntu package. I also have a suspicion that the Ubuntu package is supplied directly from the Debian package without modification - I may, of course, be wrong about that.

After reactivating the computer the screensaver sets the brightness of the display using the xrandr extension not to the value the display brightness had before, but to the value which is still in memory. To make a long story short, xrandr should check the actual brightness of the display before it is changed. I am filing this bug against xrandr because the xbacklight tool shows the same behaviour, so I do not think that this is an xscreensaver problem.

Bug#438971: devscripts: [new] chdist: tool to easily play with several distributions
Package: devscripts
Version: 2.10.7
Severity: wishlist
Hi,
I'd like to propose a new script for devscripts. It's a rewrite of what
used to be known as 'MultiDistroTools' (or mdt). Its use is to create
'APT trees' for several distributions, making it easy to query the
status of packages in Ubuntu without using chroots, for example.
Example usage:

The main problem with my script is that it's written in ruby, and I
would really hate to rewrite it in perl just to include it in
devscripts. I've seen that so far, you only have sh and perl scripts. Do
you have a policy against adding scripts in other languages?
I've attached the script in question. I'll work on a clean patch if you
agree on its inclusion despite being in ruby.
Thank you,

I finally got the solution: Something in the debian installation, most probably mac-fdisk or partman breaks the Apple_Driver partition or the contents of it.

I'd say this is the opposite for commands that operate on meta-data
(such as 'touch').
I wanted to trim my quote but I was not sure to what part you were
referring to as being the opposite. I did not understand the meaning
of your statement. Sorry.
I meant that the commands that operate on meta-data don't follow
the symbolic links in general, and 'touch' is an exception.
Touch simply open()s the file or calls utime{,s}() on the file.
I don't understand. The utime(2) man page says:
int utime(const char *filename, const struct utimbuf *buf);
int utimes(const char *filename, const struct timeval times[2]);
i.e. these functions take a filename (string) in argument, not a
FILE *, not a file descriptor either. So, I don't see why 'touch'
needs to open the file.
The underlying filesystem then follows the symlink as expected. At
least as I expect it to do anyway. :-)
A symlink can never be an open file.
I agree. But my point is that 'touch' doesn't need to open a file
(as I said above). Also note that the end user (who reads the 'touch'
documentation) doesn't necessarily know how 'touch' is implemented
(and shouldn't need to).
The rm command is not an exception here because rm operates on
symbolic links normally.
It is an exception as it doesn't follow the symbolic links.
But in the case of removing file arguments there is no meaning to
following a symlink. The symlink itself is the file argument and it
is removed. Since rm is really performing a directory operation the
directory either includes the file argument and it is removed from the
directory or it does not and an error occurs.
That's true that it doesn't modify the inode if there are additional
links.
Ditto for chown and chgrp. I think that most commands that operate
on meta-data are exceptions!
Yes. So? Other commands are the majority such as cat, grep, sed,
cut, paste, join, and so on.
All these commands read or write file *contents*, basically doing an
open.
The number of commands that operate on the inode are a smaller set.
I think this means that we are in agreement here. (Not sure though.)
Yes, this is *exactly* what I mean: 'touch' is part of the few commands
that operate on the inode, thus it should be documented concerning the
behavior on the symlinks (since amongst these commands, the behavior
on the symlinks is not always the same, and in general, symlinks are
not dereferenced).
vin:~ touch -c link
This calls utimes(2) on link, which returns ENOENT (No such file or
directory), indicating that the file does not exist. Because the -c
option was given the file is not created if it does not exist and a
successful exit code is returned.
But it would be more logical to return a non-zero exit status, as
the 'touch' could not be performed. The -c option means that the
file is not created (if it doesn't exist), no more. For instance,
'touch -c blah/cd' can return the error
touch: setting times of `blah/cd': Permission denied
though blah/cd doesn't exist. That's inconsistent.
vin:~ chmod 644 link
That does seem to be incorrect. It can't succeed and so to me seems
like it should fail. But I have not looked at the history. I will
investigate this one.
OK.
vin:~ cat link
cat: link: No such file or directory
The open(2) fails, is reported, and a error exit code is returned.
The exit status is the status on the *command*, not on some internal
system call. The 'cat' could not be performed, therefore a non-zero
exit status is return. The 'touch -c link' could not be performed,
therefore it should have returned a non-zero exit status. Similarly,
the noclobber zsh option also allows to avoid file creation when
using '':
vin% setopt noclobber
vin% echo ab cd || echo fail
zsh: no such file or directory: cd
fail
vin%
As you can see, a non-zero exit status was returned, because the
command could not be performed.
Isn't that confusing?
The chmod handling of dangling symlinks is confusing and I think
deserves a closer look as to why it is doing what it is doing. All
else follows normally and seems perfectly reasonable to me. Except
for the chmod case above don't you agree?
No. I can see 3 classes of commands that operate on files/inodes
(I don't include those that operate on directory entries such as
'rm', though their argument are filenames):
1. Those that follow symbolic links because it would make no sense
if they were not: 'chmod' and all the commands that operate on
the file contents.
2. Those that operate on meta-data and follow symbolic links though
both the symbolic link and the file have such meta-data (visible
with 'ls -l'): 'touch'.
3. Those that operate on

Bug#438869: #438869, qt-x11-free should Build-Depend on firebird2.0-dev
Hi,
Here's an improved version of the patch.
Changes since the last:
* Added powerpc to debian/rules' interbase-architectures list.
* Fixed bad typecast in interbase sql driver, causing FTBFS on amd64
That last needs some explanation:
-d-ibase = (isc_db_handle)connection;
+d-ibase = (isc_db_handle)(long int)connection;
thing is that connection is defined as void* and isc_db_handle is
defined like this (/usr/include/ibase.h):
#if defined(_LP64) || defined(__LP64__) || defined(__arch64__)
typedef unsigned intFB_API_HANDLE;
#else
typedef void* FB_API_HANDLE;
#endif
typedef FB_API_HANDLE isc_db_handle;
So on 32-bit architectures both connection and isc_db_handle are void*,
but on 64-bit one is isc_db_handle is unsigned int (32-bit), while
connection is void* (64-bit).
In older versions of firebird, isc_db_handle was void*.
As I understand it, the intention of FB_API_HANDLE is to give 32-bit
number on all architectures. This causes problems on 64-bit ones, where
void* is 64-bit. The (long int) intermediate cast in the patch serves
only to shut up the compiler, knowing that connection always contains
32-bit number.
The proper way to fix this is to use isc_db_handle as the type of
connection. This, however means API change and may be better made upstream.
Anyway, I believe the patch is complete now and would cause no harm.
Please consider applying.

I intend to NMU apt-rdepends with the attached patch. I really need this
change because I wrote a small script allowing to query the APT database
of another distribution (see chdist - #438971). I'd like to add support
for apt-rdepends in addition to apt-get and apt-cache, but this has to
be fixed first.
Please speak up if you have anything against that NMU.

Bug#438979: korganizer's poor syncronization behaviour causes data lost
Package: korganizer Version: 4:3.5.7-2 Severity: grave --- Please enter the report below this line. --- Using a remote calendar on different machines is extremely dangerous. It looks like korganizer just overwrites the local calendar when (re)loading the remote calendar and just overwrites the remote calendar when saving the local one. This leads to dangerous situations as happened for me a few minutes ago. Korganizer failed for some reason to load the changes I've made on a remote calendar yesterday on startup of korganizer. I made some changes, not knowing that I was working with an outdated copy of my calendar. When korganizer finally saved the local changes to the remote calender, all my changes I've made yesterday on the other machine where gone. Korganizer should really make sure not to overwrite newer remote or local calendars when syncronizing. I think it could use the LAST-MODIFIED fields in the .ics file to check if the local/remote event/todo-item is newer. I've decided to use grave because it leads to data loss. Important could be appropriate too since it's not useless for everyone, but I think data loss weights more in this case.

Indeed, the parser is in a bad shape and it is already on top of my priority list currently. Thanks for reminding me the rewrite will also need to properly deal with comments. (Actually, I'm currently misusing the parser originally written for the Packages files, that simply never was written with comments in mind. So comments are just treated as unknown headers, which are not warned against. So to disable a whole distribution specification, you have to put a # in front of the seperating empty line before or after it, to make it comments into that distribution.) It would be much better if reprepro just ignored stanzas which contained nothing but comments, or at least gave a clue which part it was referring to. I hope this will all get better once the new parser is finished. There is currently just too much abstraction involved. Thanks again for your report, it's coming at an almost moment, as I was plaing to work on the parser this weekend, as I finaly got annoyed enough by it using libz's gzgets in its current form which severly slows down updating...

Bug#437838: cyrus-imapd-2.3: Daemons/tools die due to Berkeley DB version mismatch
On Sun, Aug 19, 2007 at 08:07:39PM +0200, Ondřej Surý wrote: Correct fix would be to find why it didn't find libdb4.4. The reason is in the comment of the proposed patch. Every libdbX.Y Debian package installs the library as /usr/lib/libdb-X.Y.so, because that's the SONAME of the Berkeley DB 4.x libraries. The libdbX.Y-dev package however installs the /usr/lib/libdb.so symlink that points to the DB version the -dev package belongs to. That means you _can_ link to any BDB version if you use an explicit DB name (like the Cyrus configure script does) even when the -dev package is not present or if the -dev package belongs to a different library version. So, if you happen to have _any_ libdbX.Y package installed that has a version higher than the -dev package (example: you have all libdb4.4, libdb4.4-dev, and libdb4.5 installed) then the Cyrus configuration snippet will find the highest library version (4.5 in this case, since the linker will find the /usr/lib/libdb-4.5.so library), and not the version of the -dev package. And that will cause the version mismatch. The reason why this problem do not occur with other packages is that almost every other library (including the 3.x series of BDB) uses a SONAME of the form libfoo.so.X.Y.Z, i.e. the SONAME does not end in .so. Could you supply more information about your build environment? Include at least list of libdb*-dev packages installed. I used the Debian-provided packages, so you should check the experimental buildds. I know nothing about them. However I noticed this problem during personal builds long before there was a Debian package available. Just install both libdb4.4-dev and libdb4.5 and see what happens.

Bug#438987: backuppc hangs/loops with libc6 2.3.6.ds1-13etch2
Package: backuppc
Version: 2.1.2-6
Severity: important
since the libc6/libc6-i686 upgrade from 2.3.6.ds1-13 to 2.3.6.ds1-13etch2,
backups for one of our machines hang in an endless loop:
open(/var/lib/backuppc/pc/illuin/new//f%2fusr/,
O_WRONLY|O_CREAT|O_TRUNC|O_LARGEFILE, 0666) = -1 EISDIR (Is a directory)
stat64(/var/lib/backuppc/pc/illuin/new//f%2fusr/, {st_mode=S_IFDIR|0750,
st_size=4096, ...}) = 0
write(8, log Can\'t open /var/lib/backuppc/pc/illuin/new//f%2fusr/ for empty
output\\n\n, 76) = 76
write(8, log create 0 / 0 \n, 42) = 42
stat64(/var/lib/backuppc/pc/illuin/new//f%2fusr/, {st_mode=S_IFDIR|0750,
st_size=4096, ...}) = 0
the last file accessed (according to XferLOG) is
/usr/src/linux-headers-2.6.18/usr, which is a directory; backuppc seems
to want to create /usr as a file.
going back to libc6 2.3.6.ds1-13 (on the backuppc server) fixes the problem.
backup is done via rsync.
all package versions are from etch + security updates.

Bug#436276: Problem mostly solved ... Please close
This problem was apparently related to a problem in libglib2.0 which I had downloaded from Experimental. As a result of other problems. I deleted that file and replaced it with one from Sid. I still get the message, but upon closing it, Filezilla runs fine. -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of unsubscribe. Trouble? Contact [EMAIL PROTECTED]
Bug#438992: gqview: Edit-in the Gimp... option is broken with gimp 2.4.0~rc1 in unstable
Package: gqview Version: 2.0.4-1 Severity: normal Right clicking on an image or filename and selecting Edit - in the Gimp... no longer works. gqview sends this message to stderr: Unknown option -n I'm not sure if the GIMP is at fault here--it certainly provides a -n option with the new release, but this is the only thing that changed recently. It might have come in with gqview 2.0.4-1, but I thought I used the option since then.

Bug#427218: [D-community-discuss] Sugestion for a new mailing list
Hi, On Monday 20 August 2007 15:03, Andrei Popescu wrote: A [EMAIL PROTECTED] list has been requested by me (#425439) and Martin Joey Schulze (#427218), but nothing has happened yet. Maybe the project could start one and migrate later to lists.d.o if it attracts sufficient interest. I think this could also be an opportunity to attract some very valuable subscribers from debian-user. If you read d-u you might remember the big discussion around offtopic posts a few months ago. As a result the offtopic discussions have dropped to almost zero. This is not a bad thing considering the high volume of d-u, but IMHO it's missing the community spirit and this is what we are trying to promote, isn't it? ;) I'd agree that we could technically easily host that mailinglist as part of the d-community project on alioth, but I wonder whats the debian listmasters final decision is on this, as I dont think it's wise to create this mailinglist on alioth now and then move it to lists.debian.org in a short timeframe. So, debian-listmasters, what's your stance? FWIW, I support the idea of such a mailinglist, even if I wont subscribe. And, as I understand it, this mailinglist should be about offtopic stuff, but this doesnt mean it should be used for flaming or other behaviour which is against the code of conduct for the debian mailinglists. regards, Holger pgpswLTdL7uK7.pgp Description: PGP signature
Bug#438504: please help investigate potential gcc / kernel ICE on powerpc32 machines in lenny/sid.
We have tested it on a powerbook and a mpc8349e-mitx board, but it seems they don't believe in me or something, so what is really needed is an independent test and confirmation. Could you do : apt-get build-dep linux-2.6 apt-get source linux-2.6 cd linux-2.6-2.6.22 dpkg-buildpackage -rfakeroot -us -uc -B and let it run in the background while you do something else. After an hour or two, it will either ICE or not. OK I'll do that right now. signature.asc Description: Ceci est une partie de message numériquement signée
Bug#398778: 32bits debs on 64bits archs for building wine

Hello. I apologize for not replying to this sooner. I'll leave this request open, but I'm not likely to find the time to work on this request. However, if someone submits a patch, I'd consider it including it. In any case, there is already a freeze in place for etch, so this would have to be post-etch. I guess it would be better if wine could use native 64-bit libraries, but I imagine that will come in time. Then again, I'm not really aware of what would be involved in making that happen. I can send a patch, but it would require some readjustments. I would have to replace the targets provided by CDBS autotools.mk, in a similar way as how the grub2 package handles multiple builds.
