Bug#1068949: libfinance-quote-perl: Quotes failing in Gnucash
Package: libfinance-quote-perl Version: 1.59-1 Severity: normal Dear Maintainer, I ran the Tools > Price Database command in Gnucash using the "Yahoo as JSON" source and got the following response: Unable to retrieve quotes for these items. In the past, this error was resolved by editing /usr/share/perl5/Finance/Quote/YahooJSON.pm. However, this time, I could not find any solutions online. I tried upgrading from version 1.54 (bookworm) to 1.59 (trixie), but that did not resolve the issue either. I hope you can do a better job finding a valid URL for the Yahoo quotes. Alternatively, if you could recommend another, more stable, source for retrieving mutual fund quotes, that would be great too.

Bug#884824: etckeeper: daily autocommit is run even though AVOID_DAILY_AUTOCOMMITS=1
I just noticed some temporary crap was committed last night, and upon investigation, found "daily autocommit" messages dating back to 2020-03-07 when I upgraded to bullseye. Who knows what other crap got committed that I missed with a clean "git diff"? I recently upgraded to bookworm. I have AVOID_DAILY_AUTOCOMMITS=1 in /etc/etckeeper.conf to prevent these evil commits since I'll check in my changes when they are good and ready, and I'll have a much more helpful log message. Whatever it takes to prevent these unwanted commits would be much appreciated. -- Bill Wohler aka http://www.newt.com/wohler/, GnuPG ID:610BD9AD

Bug#1036971: pwsafe: empty window after internal timeout or screen blank
Hi Bill, I can confirm this regression as I experienced it when I upgraded from bullseye (perhaps with a more recent version than 1.12 from backports) to bookworm (with PasswordSafe 1.16) yesterday. Normally, when the database is locked after some time of inactivity, the password dialog appears. This dialog is no longer appearing. That's the bug. Giuseppe, there is a workaround to get the password dialog that takes four more button presses than we'd like: press the Close button followed by the Open button and double-click on your database file. Bill, I *think* I have a compiled PasswordSafe 1.16 from upstream at work that works as expected. I'll double-check the version tomorrow and let you know. I wonder if this is a GNOME 43 incompatibility... -- Bill Wohler aka http://www.newt.com/wohler/, GnuPG ID:610BD9AD

Thanks for explaining the situation. Sounds like just some bad luck. Even so, it would still be good if a mechanism could be created that would prevent this from happening in the future. I appreciate your sending the link to the prior package. It made it much easier to go back, and now my mail is flowing again.. I've also held the package until I see an OpenSSL update.

Bug#928029: planner: segfaulted; now segfaults on every start-up
I fired up planner 0.14.6-7 for the first time since my buster update and this same issue is happening constantly. I think you should be able to reproduce it reliably by moving the window to the upper left-hand corner for example and resizing the lower right-hand corner to the lower right-hand corner of your desktop. If it hasn't crashed already, while still resizing, move the mouse in circles. In the meantime, I'm avoiding resizing the window and saving every time I make a change and running planner in a while loop in the shell to make the program somewhat usable.

It was not. Installing it installed fuse3 that produced an unmet dependency that was resolved by removing fuse 2.9.9. After a reboot, mounting the filesystem in both Nautilus and with gio mount produced the mount point in /run/user/1000/gvfs. Thank you. Note that I tend not to install Recommends or Suggests packages unless it is obvious that I need it. The name "gvfs-fuse" may not have been enough for me to know that this package would provide this utility. Isn't this basic enough functionality that it should be required? Anyway, many thanks for providing the solution! Anything you and other Debian developers can do to help others avoid this situation is very much appreciated. > > I didn't find a Debian glib package.

Bug#956009: gvfs: Nautilus not mounting filesystems in /run/user/1000/gvfs
Package: gvfs Version: 1.44.1-1 Severity: important Since a recent upgrade to bullseye from stretch, navigating to a remote Samba directory via Nautilus or running "gio mount smb://server/share" no longer creates a mount point in /run/user/1000/gvfs. I found [1] which may be helpful. There's a glib packaging fix suggested at the end. I tried the suggested workaround [2] to no avail. I didn't find a Debian glib package. The closest I found was glib-networking:amd64, 2.64.1-1. 1. https://github.com/NixOS/nixpkgs/issues/50254 2. systemctl --user stop gvfs-daemon I marked this important since my scripts that depend on this directory are broken until the directory is populated, or I read some documentation that points out that the mounts can be found elsewhere. So far, all of the documentation points to /run/user/1000/gvfs or $XDG_RUNTIME_DIR/gvfs, which is empty. In case it is useful, here are some diagnostics after running [2] and mounting a remote filesystem in nautilus.

In addition to having a corrupted database, the error message above is incorrect; as you can see, db_home *is* specified. Note that I just upgraded to wheezy, so I'm suspecting a database upgrade had a role to play. If this is true, please retitle this issue yes, it is very likely that the database upgrade caused the problem. to Upgrading database version corrupts database. Dependencies should be put in place so that the pam-abl database is automatically rebuilt upon a database upgrade. At the very least, documentation should be added to /usr/share/doc/libpam-abl/README.Debian. For example, please see Section 2.6, Updating Berkeley DB version underneath bogofilter, in /usr/share/doc/bogofilter-bdb/README.db. Regarding the upgrade procedure, I am not sure that it makes sense to implementing a tool which will upgrade databases during install/update Given the ephemeral nature of this database, I would agree. Currently I mentioned in the README.Debian that one should delete the old databases or try to upgrade them manually in case of libdb upgrade. Thanks. If it's easy to add a message to the installation scripts that the old database needs to be deleted, or perhaps to ask and delete the old database on behalf of the user, that would be helpful. Btw, I've recently uploaded to experimental a new release - 0.6.0. It has important changes, but unfortunately the binary package will not work on wheezy because of dependencies. If you are willing to test it I'll provide the guidelines on how to build it for wheezy. I'm good for now, and recent work travel has limited my free time so I'll wait for my next system upgrade. (I'm writing from a hotel room now.) Sorry for such a long delay and best regards, No worries. Thanks for maintaining this package!

The second pam_abl listing hung and had to be interrupted with C-c. $ sudo pam_abl expected listing $ sudo pam_abl --whitelist -H host No such file or directory (2) while reading config file Invalid argument (22) while reading config file: No db_home dir specified $ sudo pam_abl pam-abl: unable to join the environment pam-abl: unable to join the environment ^C $ I removed all of the files in my pam-abl database directory (db_home=/var/lib/abl/) and this cleared up the problem. In addition to having a corrupted database, the error message above is incorrect; as you can see, db_home *is* specified. Note that I just upgraded to wheezy, so I'm suspecting a database upgrade had a role to play. If this is true, please retitle this issue to Upgrading database version corrupts database. Dependencies should be put in place so that the pam-abl database is automatically rebuilt upon a database upgrade. At the very least, documentation should be added to /usr/share/doc/libpam-abl/README.Debian. For example, please see Section 2.6, Updating Berkeley DB version underneath bogofilter, in /usr/share/doc/bogofilter-bdb/README.db. -- System Information: Debian Release: 7.1 APT prefers stable APT policy: (900, 'stable'), (500, 'stable-updates') Architecture: amd64 (x86_64) Foreign Architectures: i386 Kernel: Linux 3.2.0-4-amd64 (SMP w/2 CPU cores) Locale: LANG=en_US.UTF-8, LC_CTYPE=en_US.UTF-8 (charmap=UTF-8) (ignored: LC_ALL set to en_US.UTF-8) Shell: /bin/sh linked to /bin/bash Versions of packages libpam-abl depends on: ii libc6 2.13-38 ii libdb5.1 5.1.29-5 libpam-abl recommends no packages. libpam-abl suggests no packages. -- Configuration Files: /etc/security/pam_abl.conf changed: db_home=/var/lib/abl/ host_db=/var/lib/abl/hosts.db host_purge=2d host_rule=*:3/1h,30/1d user_db=/var/lib/abl/users.db user_purge=2d user_rule=nobody:3/1h,30/1d -- no debconf information -- Bill Wohler woh...@newt.com aka bill.woh...@nasa.gov http://www.newt.com/wohler/ GnuPG ID:610BD9AD -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to debian-bugs-dist-requ...@lists.debian.org with a subject of unsubscribe.

Bug#704497: libpam-abl: Unnecessary logging when user db not in use
Package: libpam-abl Version: 0.4.3-1 Severity: normal The libpam-abl.conf man page says: If host_db or user_db is omitted the corresponding auto blacklisting will be disabled. When I comment out my user_* entries from the configuration file, I get these log messages for each attempt: Mar 31 06:17:34 tassie pam_abl[30420]: check_user: No host database found in config. Mar 31 06:17:34 tassie pam_abl[30420]: Failed to check user. If I comment out the user rules, there shouldn't be any logging output with respect to user rules. As a workaround, I tried uncommenting out just the user_db line and got these errors instead: Apr 1 04:12:48 tassie kernel: [2488949.181580] sshd[30882]: segfault at 0 ip 7f751a96c83a sp 7fff52e492a0 error 4 in pam_abl.so[7f751a968000+6000] So I uncommented out the rest of the user rules and changed the * to nobody in the user_rule: user_rule=nobody:3/1h,30/1d There aren't any more segmentation violations and hopefully, I won't be hit by DOS attacks on my login. -- System Information: Debian Release: 6.0.7 APT prefers stable APT policy: (600, 'stable'), (500, 'stable-updates'), (90, 'testing') Architecture: amd64 (x86_64) Kernel: Linux 2.6.32-5-amd64 (SMP w/2 CPU cores) Locale: LANG=en_US.utf8, LC_CTYPE=en_US.utf8 (charmap=UTF-8) (ignored: LC_ALL set to en_US.UTF-8) Shell: /bin/sh linked to /bin/bash Versions of packages libpam-abl depends on: ii libc6 2.11.3-4 Embedded GNU C Library: Shared lib ii libdb5.1 5.1.29-5 Berkeley v5.1 Database Libraries [ libpam-abl recommends no packages. libpam-abl suggests no packages. -- Configuration Files: /etc/security/pam_abl.conf changed: db_home=/var/lib/abl/ host_db=/var/lib/abl/hosts.db host_purge=2d host_rule=*:3/1h,30/1d -- no debconf information -- Bill Wohler woh...@newt.com aka bill.woh...@nasa.gov http://www.newt.com/wohler/ GnuPG ID:610BD9AD -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to debian-bugs-dist-requ...@lists.debian.org with a subject of unsubscribe.

I'm getting the Blocking access messages in my log again. Thanks! How did you install the libpam-abl package? It is not available for the stable so far... I don't know! My aptitude log shows that I installed libpam-abl on 2012-10-06 and pulled in libdb5.1 as a dependency. While I run squeeze, I have backports and deb-multimedia as well as sid, experimental, and http://mentors.debian.net/debian (which is commented with PAM_ABL) deb-src entries in my sources.list file. However, I don't see anything in /usr/src, which is usually where I stash sources from sid. Stranger yet, I have files labeled with testing in /var/lib/apt/lists, but do not have testing in my sources.list file! The highest version of Berkeley DB in Debian Stable 6.0.6 (Squeezy) is 4.8.30-2. The tests I performed yesterday where done on the testing system, where libdb is 5.1.29-5 - exactly as on your system. There is a tool called db5.1_upgrade which should be used to upgrade the database, but I don't know if it make sense to use it after running db5.1_recover on the old database... I did a little more investigation. Between the time of the last good log message and the one I listed above, two unusual things occurred. The first is that I put my laptop to sleep, and the other is that I installed the following packages (which don't look like they would interfere): [INSTALL, DEPENDENCIES] libemma-java [INSTALL, DEPENDENCIES] libganymed-ssh2-java [INSTALL, DEPENDENCIES] libjna-java [INSTALL, DEPENDENCIES] libsvnkit-java [INSTALL, DEPENDENCIES] libtrilead-ssh2-java [INSTALL] libsvnclientadapter-java I don't think that these packages could influence libpam-abl and also don't see how putting to sleep would damage the database.. May be it makes sense to run smart check for the drive. Thanks for the suggestion. smartctl -a said No Errors Logged. Also, I noticed that there were about 1000 old .log files in /var/lib/abl. Is this normal? Is there a good way to consolidate them? For the log files you can use db5.1_archive with -d flag, but see the man page for the details. Ah, much better, thanks! After reading the man page, I'd prefer to clean up occasionally and start again from scratch in the case of catastrophic failure (in the case of pam-abl). Thanks again! Ditto!

Bug#681451: gvfs-bin: gvfs-open (via xdg-open) opens pdfs in wrong application
Looks like there is a remnant of OpenOffice: $ xdg-mime query default application/vnd.openxmlformats-officedocument.spreadsheetml.sheet openoffice.org-calc.desktop I also found this: $ grep -r gnumeric .local .local/share/applications/mimeapps.list:application/vnd.openxmlformats-officedocument.spreadsheetml.sheet=openoffice.org-calc.desktop;gnumeric.desktop;libreoffice-calc.desktop;file-roller.desktop; Compare the locations of the applications listed: $ locate openoffice.org-calc.desktop /usr/share/app-install/desktop/openoffice.org-calc.desktop $ locate gnumeric.desktop /usr/share/app-install/desktop/gnumeric.desktop /usr/share/applications/gnumeric.desktop /var/lib/menu-xdg/applications/menu-xdg/X-Debian-Applications-Office-gnumeric.desktop $ locate libreoffice-calc.desktop /usr/share/applications/libreoffice-calc.desktop I think what is happening is that /usr/share/app-install/desktop is not in the search path and /usr/share/applications is, so gnumeric.desktop is being used in favor of openoffice.org-calc.desktop since the former is found and the latter is not. The correct application, libreoffice-calc.desktop, doesn't even get to play. I removed the offensive line from .local/share/applications/mimeapps.list and then ran: $ xdg-mime default libreoffice-calc.desktop application/vnd.openxmlformats-officedocument.spreadsheetml.sheet Now, when I run xdg-open on a .xlsx file, I get libreoffice as desired. At least in my case, it would seem that this is fallout from the OpenOffice to LibreOffice conversion.

Good! And I apologize for not getting back to you earlier.

Care to submit your rules for inclusion in the aide packages?
I will be glad to do so once I stop editing them :-).
Great! Looking forward!
I've just installed 0.13.1-8 with apt-get source. Unfortunately, as
reported in #442214, I always get the following report:
removed: /var/log/aide/aide.log.6.gz
Once that message goes away, I'll be able to determine if this upgrade
closed this issue for me.
Try changing /etc/aide/aide.conf.d/31_aide_aide to read:
/var/log/aide/aide\.log(\.0)?$ LowLogs
/var/log/aide/aide\.log\.1\.gz$ RotatedLogs+ANF
/var/log/aide/aide\.log\.[2345]\.gz$ RotatedLogs
/var/log/aide/aide\.log\.6\.gz$ RotatedLogs+ARF
Maybe this changes things (see also my answer and test case appended
to #442214). However, even the original rule seems to work for me. So
let's find a minimal test case to be able to pin down the issue.
Greetings
Marc

Bug#683874: john: No password hashes loaded
Package: john Version: 1.7.3.1-1 Severity: normal I installed john and uncommented the lines in /etc/cron.d/john.

Bug#596489: metacity: Two keystrokes needed to switch desktops
I found a workaround to this problem. I moved ~/.gconf out of the way, logged out, and logged in again. Then C-M-Right/Left behaved as I would expect. This is suboptimal since it then took me a couple of hours to reset all of my settings. When I do a diff of the old and new settings, I see the following differences in /apps/metacity/window_keybindings: - move_to_workspace_right = ControlAltRight - move_to_workspace_left = ControlAltLeft + move_to_workspace_right = ControlShiftAltRight + move_to_workspace_left = ControlShiftAltLeft I suspect that the old settings were wreaking havoc with the new version of metacity. It would be good for metacity to recognize this issue in the configuration and ask the user to update the config accordingly.

Since this Let's get the facts straight: this is not an udev bug, not even close. udev just has a workaround to prevent it from triggering the first kernel bug. The first bug is the events loop caused by ide-cs and ide-floppy when udev opens the block device, and the second bug is the oops which happens after this. Does this still occur with more recent kernels? Hi Moritz, unfortunately, I have a new laptop that comes with nice card slots built-in, so I haven't had the opportunity to test PCMCIA. I haven't seen any oops with this laptop, so I guess you could close this bug on my account.

Bug#537671: bluez: No documentation for substitutes for deprecated programs dund, etc.
Package: bluez Version: 4.42-2 Severity: wishlist Hi Filippo, /usr/share/doc/bluez/README.Debian says: Legacy daemons -- The bluez-compat package includes old legacy daemons such as dund, pand and hidd for enabling dial-up, ethernet networking and input devices over bluetooth. Elsewhere I read that these would be going away. It would be very helpful to document how we can change our existing configurations to use bluetoothd. For example, I had the following in /etc/default/bluetooth (now in rc.local): DUND_OPTIONS=--listen --persist --auth call treo After an hour of reading docs (which don't exist in the case of main.conf) and Googling, I still have no clue how to use bluetoothd to set up a connection with my Treo. Perhaps you can help us in the transition by documenting it in README.Debian.

Bug#535917: iceweasel: File filter for save as dialog doesn't always work
Package: iceweasel Version: 3.0.6-1 Severity: normal When saving automatically generated documents, the save as dialog recognizes the type, probably from the Content-Type HTTP header and displays the filter filter correctly (the list above the Save button that contains, for example, PDF document or All Files.) However, in some cases, NO files at all will be shown in the list of files--just directories, if any, even if there are files that match the filter (in this case, .pdf files). If you change the file filter to All Files, then the .pdf files are shown. I believe this happens if the URL for an automatically generated document does not end in .pdf as in the following hypothetical example: https://www.bank.com/statements?account=12345statement=12345 Perhaps it is also the lack of or a faulty Content-Disposition header field which triggers the problem as well. My guess is that the file filter is built with extension of the URL or the filename parameter of the Content-Disposition header field and in these examples, the extension is absent. When the extension is absent, the extension should be determined from /etc/mime.types given the media type in the Content-Type header field. I don't think this should be the default behavior, however. If an extension is present in a suggested filename, it should be used. By the way, the case in PDF document and All Files is inconsistent. All Files should probably be All files according to the HIG: http://library.gnome.org/devel/hig-book/stable/controls-option-menus.html.en -- System Information: Debian Release: 5.0.2 APT prefers stable APT policy: (600, 'stable'), (80, 'unstable'), (1, 'experimental') Architecture: amd64 (x86_64) Kernel: Linux 2.6.28-1-amd64 (SMP w/2 CPU cores) Locale: LANG=en_US.UTF-8, LC_CTYPE=en_US.UTF-8 (charmap=UTF-8) (ignored: LC_ALL set to en_US.UTF-8) Shell: /bin/sh linked to /bin/bash Versions of packages iceweasel depends on: ii debianutils 2.30 Miscellaneous utilities specific t ii fontconfig 2.6.0-3 generic font configuration library ii libc6 2.7-18 GNU C Library: Shared libraries ii libglib2.0-02.16.6-2 The GLib library of C routines ii libgtk2.0-0 2.12.12-1~lenny1 The GTK+ graphical user interface ii libnspr4-0d 4.7.1-4 NetScape Portable Runtime Library ii libstdc++6 4.3.2-1.1The GNU Standard C++ Library v3 ii procps 1:3.2.7-11 /proc file system utilities ii psmisc 22.6-1 Utilities that use the proc filesy ii xulrunner-1.9 1.9.0.11-0lenny1 XUL + XPCOM application runner iceweasel recommends no packages.

Hi Kel, I switched to ath5k a couple of weeks ago. Unfortunately, there appears to be a problem with ath5k, WEP, and my chipset AR5211. I can associate with the AP, but the network connection doesn't come up. If I drop WEP, then I can connect. In any event, since I use restricted MAC addresses on my AP, and use ssh and ssl for communications, I'm content with using an unsecured network for now, especially since my ath5k connections have been up for two weeks solid now! I'm hoping to improve things by switching to WPA per [1] but haven't gotten around to that yet. By the way, do you know if this HOWTO is up to date?

Bug#482867: fcron: Forgets root's entries on upgrade
Package: fcron Version: 3.0.1-1.2 Severity: important For the second time in a year, I noticed that my nightly backups hadn't been done in a month. In both cases, the date of the last backup coincided with the date that fcron had been upgraded. It therefore appears that fcron forgets root's settings upon an upgrade.

Bug#473709: madwifi-source: Connection drops within an hour
Hi Kel, I installed kernel version 2.6.25 and there isn't any change--the connection still drops within several hours. I rebooted into 2.6.22 and have been up for days... I found one relevant ticket, http://madwifi.org/ticket/1951, but there isn't any feedback on it yet. I added my two cents. I read about an ath5k release that they are working on. Do you have any news on when that might be available, and do you plan on replacing madwifi-source with it? madwifi-source (1:0.9.4~rc2-1) and linux-image-2.6.25-2-686 (2.6.25-3). -- Bill Wohler [EMAIL PROTECTED] http://www.newt.com/wohler/ GnuPG ID:610BD9AD -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of unsubscribe.

Bug#476784: boinc-manager: boincmgr -s doesn't work
Package: boinc-manager Version: 5.10.45-2 Severity: normal While boincmgr works fine, adding the -s to add an icon to the system tray does not: $ boincmgr -s connect: Operation now in progress [Hangs here] I'm not sure if this useful, but I stumbled across the following after running boinctray, which does work. $ boinctray $ boincmgr -s connect: Operation now in progress The program 'boincmgr' received an X Window System error. This probably reflects a bug in the program. The error was 'BadAlloc (insufficient resources for operation)'. (Details: serial 766 error_code 11 request_code 53 minor_code 0) (Note to programmers: normally, X errors are reported asynchronously; that is, you will receive the error a while after causing it. To debug your program, run it with the --sync command line option to change this behavior. You can then get a meaningful backtrace from your debugger if you break on the gdk_x_error() function.) By the way, any thoughts on why boincmgr shows the correct [EMAIL PROTECTED] icons and images when run from the menus, but shows the BOINC icon and image when run from the command line?

To be honest, I have not many easy ideas of how you may track this bug down; it would most probably be the cause of the Madwifi driver, and you could look through madwifi.org/tickets for releated problem reports or subversion history of the stable branch for suspicious commits and try hacking your way to glory. Both these ideas are likely to end in frustration however :/ Will do. In the worst case, I'll also continue to try again with new kernel and madwifi versions as they become available and will report back if there is any change. I suspect that this behavior will go away on its own in the future :-). Previous versions of Madwifi will not be easy to make build with 2.6.24, in fact a version of madwifi that built against 2.6.24 was major impetus for releasing 0.9.4, not too many other changes snuck in. I discovered that! There is also a small chance that linux 2.6.24 itself is somehow not loving your system as it did in the past. Perhaps, which is a pity since it fixed another problem I had been seeing from 2.6.19-2.6.22--it works with gpsbabel's usb: driver.

Bug#473864: gnome-keyring: Takes over SSH agent functionality without warning
Package: gnome-keyring Version: 2.22.0-2 Severity: normal Josh Triplett [EMAIL PROTECTED] wrote: gnome-keyring apparently supports SSH agent functionality now. While a somewhat interesting feature, it managed to break my working libpam-ssh setup, which has the advantage of working in sessions that don't involve logging into GNOME. I just spent the last few hours trying to figure out why ssh-add suddenly started spitting out SSH_AGENT_FAILURE. As it turns out, I can still use ssh without a password, but now I'm concerned. What is this gnome-keyring? Does it supersede ssh-agent? If so and because it seems to have more functionality than ssh-agent, where can I learn more about it? Are my passwords kept on disk anywhere? If so, how are they encrypted? Do I still use ssh-add or use those pop-ups that I've seen? I use expiration times with ssh-add--are those supported? I logged out of my GNOME session and logged back in and my password was still cached! I don't like that at all. It also created ~/.ssh/*.keystore files for my private keys. Please add a NEWS.Debian item telling people about this change, and please document how to disable it (set the gconf key /apps/gnome-keyring/daemon-components/ssh to false). I agree. Thanks for the tip about the gconf key. In addition, I would love to hear answers to my questions above and I'd suggest that those answers be captured in a README.Debian file as well.
