Bug#954762: systraq: Annoying as Hell

2020-03-22 Thread Brice Hunt
Package: systraq
Version: 20160803-3
Severity: critical
Tags: security
Justification: breaks unrelated software

Dear Maintainer,

You annoyed me with your jackass hourly cron job (once a day is sufficient) Now
I'm annoying you.

Enjoy Jackass

Solution: uninstall Debian, go with a distro that doesn't use jackasses instead
of developers.

Bug#954432: geophar: Fails to start

2020-03-21 Thread Brice Hunt
Package: geophar
Version: 18.08.6+dfsg1-1
Severity: grave
Justification: renders package unusable

Dear Maintainer,

   * What led up to the situation?
Wanting to see if Geophar is useful to me.

   * What exactly did you do (or not do) that was effective (or
 ineffective)?
I installed Geophar with its default dependencies from the 
package repository.

After installing, I issued the following command in a terminal:

geophar

   * What was the outcome of this action?

After issuing the command in a terminal, the following lines
were printed and the program exited:

QSettings::value: Empty key passed
QSettings::value: Empty key passed
malloc(): unsorted double linked list corrupted
Aborted

   * What outcome did you expect instead?

The program to start and run.

Bug#873370: kmenuedit: All versions in repositories are extremely out of date.

2017-08-26 Thread Brice Hunt
Package: kmenuedit
Version: 4:5.8.4-1
Severity: grave
Justification: renders package unusable

Dear Maintainer,

The out of date kmenuedit saves configuration files in the wrong directories, 
causing most menu edits to be lost.
The newest version in repositories is 4.8.5. The newest version available from 
upstream is 5.10.5. The version of kmenuedit
in the repositories does not work with the version of plasma that is available 
in the repositories.

The recommended solution is to package a more up-to-date version for Debian and 
submit it.

Bug#870104: kio_http_cache_cleaner runs indefinitely after logging out of KDE

2017-07-29 Thread Brice Hunt
Package: kio
Version: 5.28.0-2
Severity: normal

Dear Maintainer,

2nd or 3rd graphical logins to Plasma Desktop by various users sometimes hang 
in 
diverse and weird ways. Upon investigation, many processes were found to still 
be 
running after users log out. Further investigating, kio_http_cache_cleaner 
seems 
to be consistently running after a log out, causing other processes to not quit 
on logout. Killing this process would end the other processes that had remained
running, and the weird hangs never seem to happen if this process is killed 
after logging out.

I would submit a patch, but I am not sure of how sddm controls the logout to 
ensure processes are terminated appropriately.

Bug#659832: Quick and dirty workaround using sudo

2012-05-04 Thread Brice Hunt
Until this bug can be fixed, I am using the following quick and dirty bash 
script to work around the issue. Note, this quick and dirty work around really 
is quick and dirty and may have security problems or other issues. The way it 
is written requires sudo, but if you don't mind entering passwords multiple 
times, it could be used with su -c instead of the first sudo and eliminate the 
second sudo in front of the su. I put this script in ~/bin/ as I'm the only 
one on my computer that ever needs to be root. I use this script in 
conjunction with a custom Konsole profile for whenever I need a root command 
line.

This script, as written, gets your xauth magic cookie, asks for your user 
password once to add the magic cookie to root's xauth file, then immediately 
reuses the sudo authorization to start a root command line.

~/bin/mysux

#!/bin/bash
 
 cookie=`xauth list $DISPLAY`
 sudo xauth add $cookie
 sudo su -

Bug#671405: [laptop-mode-tools] usb-autosuspend enabled for all devices by default

2012-05-03 Thread Brice Hunt
Package: laptop-mode-tools
Version: 1.60-1
Severity: normal

--- Please enter the report below this line. ---
By default, /etc/laptop-mode/conf.d/usb-autosuspend.conf enables laptop-mode-
tools to turn the power off for many (all?) usb devices after three seconds of 
non-use when AC is unplugged. This behavior is unwelcome and causes problems 
the first time it happens.

I do not have a single USB device that I want powered down while actively 
using my computer, even in power saving mode. My wired USB mouse, my bluetooth 
radio that I use to connect to my car's computer, various cameras, my laptop 
cooler, and my various usb mass storage devices all become annoying to use 
when the USB power is shut off after only a few seconds. If I am not using 
them, I typically will unplug them from the USB port just because I cannot 
have everything plugged simultaneously into my laptop.

The fix for this bug is easy. It involves either disabling usb-autosuspend (set 
CONTROL_USB_AUTOSUSPEND=0 in /etc/laptop-mode/conf.d/usb-autosuspend.conf). 
Alternatively, you can set  AUTOSUSPEND_USE_WHITELIST=1 and then whitelist the 
usb devices that you can be autosuspended with AUTOSUSPEND_USBID_WHITELIST= 
and AUTOSUSPEND_USBTYPE_WHITELIST= in the same file as above. You can use 
lsusb when the device is plugged in to determine its type and/or USB ID. I 
consider either of these solutions preferrable to blacklisting because most 
USB devices are designed to be used while they are plugged in and many of them 
have their own power-down routines and stop drawing power when they're not 
being used.
