Bug#995396: hdparm udev rule does not trigger for device node names which are four letters or longer
There is another place that needs to be fixed: 95hdparm-apm The line "for dev in /dev/sd? /dev/hd? ; do" should also be changed to "for dev in /dev/sd*[!0-9] ; do" TIA, Andy -- Andreas Ley, SCC, Karlsruhe Institute of Technology (KIT), D-76128 Karlsruhe E-Mail: andreas@kit.edu, Phone: +49 721 608 46341, Fax: +49 721 32550

Bug#913234: shibboleth-sp2-utils: systemd service does not warn if certs not accessible as _shibd (like init.d did)

It seems you didn't use a big enough cattle prod here ;-) Without the explicit systemd service, it still runs seamlessly as root... > There was a NEWS entry as well. I had something in mind like the warning mails I get for behaviour changes from unattended upgrades... Since I don't do dist-upgrades, but clean re-installs to get rid of no-longer-needed stuff on my servers, it seems I have to improve my reading and include all the NEWS* files for all the packages... > Systemd can't really provide a fallback to root anyway.

Yes, this might help - and now that I'm better aware of the NEWS* files, perhaps an entry in a shibboleth-sp2-utils (where _this_ change really happend) NEWS file, like, "now we have a systemd service, now you not only SHOULD change to _shibd, now you MUST" or anything more prominent. You're right, you did document the change, and it's the ignorant admins out there that have a problem, so everything should be fine, but now that you know of these admins, perhaps you stumble upon a bigger prod - if not, ok, it's us admins that have to learn the hard way ;-) Thanks for your time, for the work that you put in these packages and for dealing with people like me :) Bye, Andy -- Andreas Ley, SCC, Karlsruhe Institute of Technology (KIT), D-76128 Karlsruhe E-Mail: andreas@kit.edu, Telephone: +49 721 608 46341, Fax: +49 721 32550 "It's 106 ms to Chicago, we've got a full disk of GIFs, half a meg of hypertext, it's dark, and we're wearing sunglasses."

Bug#913234: shibboleth-sp2-utils: systemd service does not warn if certs not accessible as _shibd (like init.d did)
Package: shibboleth-sp2-utils Version: 2.6.0+dfsg1-4+deb9u1 Severity: minor Dear Maintainer, * What led up to the situation? Migrated shibboleth x.509 keys (root owned, mode 400) from a jessie system to stretch. * What exactly did you do (or not do) that was effective (or ineffective)? Did not realize there now is a _shibd user that needs to access the keys since on jessie, shibd automatically runs as root in such a situation. * What was the outcome of this action? /var/log/shibboleth/shibd.log lists: 2018-11-08 08:30:59 ERROR OpenSSL : error code: 33558541 in bss_file.c, line 406 2018-11-08 08:30:59 ERROR OpenSSL : error data: fopen('.../conf/ssl/sp.key','r') 2018-11-08 08:30:59 ERROR OpenSSL : error code: 537346050 in bss_file.c, line 408 * What outcome did you expect instead? Either the same logic as on jessie or a more prominent hint for the admin to adapt to the new situation. * What caused the problem? On jessie, there is no explict systemd service file but one is generated from /etc/init.d/shibd as /run/systemd/generator.late/shibd.service so the whole init.d logic is also available to systemd. This logic has been amended by debian/patches/Improve-shibd-init-script.patch's prepare_environment() which runs shibd in test mode, looks for the error above and then automatically disables running as $DAEMON_USER The associated warning is easily overseen as the logs are noisy and everything is fine. On stretch, there is a /lib/systemd/system/shibd.service which misses both the automatism and the warning. -- System Information: Debian Release: 9.5 APT prefers stable-updates APT policy: (500, 'stable-updates'), (500, 'stable') Architecture: amd64 (x86_64) Kernel: Linux 4.9.0-8-amd64 (SMP w/6 CPU cores) Locale: LANG=en_US.utf8, LC_CTYPE=de_DE.utf8 (charmap=UTF-8), LANGUAGE=en_US:en (charmap=UTF-8) Shell: /bin/sh linked to /bin/dash Init: systemd (via /run/systemd/system) Versions of packages shibboleth-sp2-utils depends on: ii adduser 3.115 ii init-system-helpers 1.48 ii libc62.24-11+deb9u3 ii libfcgi0ldbl 2.4.0-8.4+b1 ii libgcc1 1:6.3.0-18+deb9u1 ii liblog4shib1v5 1.0.9-3 ii libsaml9 2.6.0-4+deb9u1 ii libshibsp-plugins2.6.0+dfsg1-4+deb9u1 ii libshibsp7 2.6.0+dfsg1-4+deb9u1 ii libstdc++6 6.3.0-18+deb9u1 ii libsystemd0 232-25+deb9u4 ii libxerces-c3.1 3.1.4+debian-2+deb9u1 ii libxmltooling7 1.6.0-4+deb9u1 ii lsb-base 9.20161125 Versions of packages shibboleth-sp2-utils recommends: ii openssl 1.1.0f-3+deb9u2 shibboleth-sp2-utils suggests no packages. -- debconf-show failed

>There is: http://bugs.debian.org/ is the main page, >http://bugs.debian.org/447595 shows the log of this specific bug. Good to know - when I reported my problem to kernel.org, I got a reply with the URL to the report's page - there was no such URL in the debian answer. Dumb of me not to look for myself, but may I suggest that the URL gets added to the standard reply template? Would help the ignorant people :) >There's no log of your response there either, so unfortunately it seems >that your message was lost somewhere :-( Ok, but since the problem is solved, no need to worry about that. Thanks for your cooperation and the work you do! Hope not to (need to) hear from you any more :) Merry christmas!

>As I didn't receive any feedback for almost 2 months, I'm now closing >this bug report. In fact, I did send feedback (on Mon, 22 Oct 2007 18:50:21 +0200 (CES)), but didn't receive any answer, so I guessed you classified the problem as non-debian related and silently discared it (AFAIK there's no web page where I could've looked up the status of the bug). I later found out, that other applications also show this bug, filed it as a kernel bug (http://bugzilla.kernel.org/show_bug.cgi?id=9315) and got told, that this was a known problem, with an existing but for several weeks unreleased patch. So yes, the bug should be closed, but with a "solved" state. Thanks for your support!

Bug#447595: rsync writes zeros to destination files on nfs volumes
Package: rsync Version: 2.6.9-2etch1 Severity: grave Justification: causes non-serious data loss At least when syncing the 2007-10-20T13:49:53 version of security.debian.org::debian-security/dists/etch/updates/main/binary-i386/Packages.gz on etch (2.6.9-2etch1) or sarge (2.6.4-6) to an nfs destination, rsync writes zeroes from 4c00 to 4fff in the destination file. Local destinations work fine, as does rsync on woody (2.5.5-0.6). Other source files haven't been tested yet. The same applies to a self-compiled (on woody) 2.6.9 with sources from rsync.samba.org - works on woody, fails on sarge and etch. -- System Information: Debian Release: 4.0 APT prefers stable APT policy: (500, 'stable') Architecture: i386 (i686) Shell: /bin/sh linked to /bin/bash Kernel: Linux 2.6.23.1 Locale: LANG=C, LC_CTYPE=de_DE (charmap=ISO-8859-1) Versions of packages rsync depends on: ii libacl12.2.41-1 Access control list shared library ii libc6 2.3.6.ds1-13etch2 GNU C Library: Shared libraries ii libpopt0 1.10-3lib for parsing cmdline parameters ii lsb-base 3.1-23.2etch1 Linux Standard Base 3.1 init scrip rsync recommends no packages. -- no debconf information -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe".
