I am not right person to implement it -- it is big change, it is complicating further svlogd (which is already beast, comparing with rest of runit, which I love for simplicity) and I personally do not use it. This is definitely case when you should call Gerrit Pape (upstream). While usually Debian Maintainer should be a man between user and upstream author, I think in this case you will explain situation better yourself.

Well, I can revert it, but truth is that this package is maintained by Gerrit Pape, who is not active for some years. I took over some of his packages, but I am not interested in `cvm'. I just need to transit bglibs, since latest version of `bcron', in which I am interested, requires latest bglibs. Probably this upload should be QA upload, not NMU for lack of actual maintainer. It is any way to ask QA team to make this upload on their behalf?

The modules act as a filter, taking a set of credentials as input and writing a set of facts as output if those credentials are valid. Optional input is given to the module through environment variables. . Some of the ideas for CVM came from experience with PAM (pluggable authentication modules), the checkpassword interface used by qmail-pop3d, and the "authmod" interface used by Courier IMAP and POP3. This framework places fewer restrictions on the invoking client than checkpassword does, and is much simpler to implement on both sides than PAM and the authmod framework.

Package: sponsorship-requests
Severity: wishlist
Dear mentors,
I am looking for a sponsor for my package "bglibs"
* Package name : bglibs

Upstream Author : Bruce Guenter
* Url : http://untroubled.org/bglibs/
* Licenses : LGPL-2.1+
Programming Lang : C
Section : libs
${S:Long-Desc}
.
This package contains the shared libraries.
It builds those binary packages:
* libbg2
* libbg2-dev
* libbg2-doc
Please note, that package is maintained with dgit(1) tool using
dgit-maint-merge(7) workflow. In particular, it means that quilt
patches are squashed in source package and are not intended for
review. For more information about how to sponsor this package,
see dgit-sponsorship(7).
Git repository: https://anonscm.debian.org/cgit/users/kaction-guest/bglibs.git
Git branch: master
Orig tar.gz: from tag 2.03.dfsg
With /bin/sh following commands should suffice:
$ git clone https://anonscm.debian.org/cgit/users/kaction-guest/bglibs.git
bglibs
$ cd bglibs
$ git archive -o ../bglibs_2.03+dfsg.orig.tar.xz 2.03.dfsg
$ dgit sbuild
Changes since last upload:
* QA upload
* New upstream release
* Add debian/watch file and associated upstream GPG key
* Replace manual invocation of dpkg-buildflags in debian/rules
with inclusion of /usr/share/dpkg/default.mk
* Disable network-accessing tests
* Change binary package names, since this version of library
is both source-incompatible (headers are restructured) and
binary-incompatible (soname is chaged)
* Convert debian/rules to debhelper
* Rebuild doxygen documentation during build process
* Re-enable hardening
* Generate symbols file
* Register documentation with doc-base

Bug#848239: deluser on purge
First of all, I am sorry, if my response sounded rough or impolite or offensive or somehow demostrated negative attitude. It was not intended. I beg your pardon. English is not my native, and sometimes I fail to notice differense between neutral wording and non-neutral. My intention to convey purely technical idea. Summary of out conversation, as I understood it: * You want system user and its $HOME to be removed at purge * You rationale it with piuparts and example of several other packages * I state that it would make dh-sysuser code complicated, and will require handling unknown amount of corner cases. Failure to catch one of them may lead to disaster, * I state that I do consider 'aganist' outweight 'for' To make piuparts happy I can propose following algorithm on purge: * remove exactly those files in $HOME, that are same as in /etc/skel. * if $HOME now is empty, remove it and remove user.

Debian, as far as I observe, is fine with certain level of "overhead", like linking programs with libraries like libsystemd or libaudit or libdbus. Maintainer gets simplicity of packaging, user gets more dependencies and used memory. It is considered fine. Back to our ocassion. You propose adding different features to dh-sysuser. Some of them in my opinion has fair balance between usefuness and complexity, like `chmod $HOME', I can't say so about feature of removing $HOME and deleting user. Here I am stating that I trade a little (IMHO) of user good for a lot of my good, and that it is common practice. > But I understand my argument is not well received so I will go back in > my hole of mutual ignorance. I am sorry to hear it. I hope I clarified my position well enough and I hope that you will change your mind and we can return to technical discussions. PS. See next email about setsid() function.

You are right. But what are we going to do anyway in case if user
installs 901 different daemons? Seems that approach of system users
does not scale at all.
Just a thought: `setuid(2)' accepts uid_t, which is 32bit on my 64 bit
system. So probably it possible to run process isolated without creating
entry in /etc/passwd? Here is little C program:
#include
#include
#include
int
main(void)
{
printf("%d\n", (int)(sizeof(uid_t)));
setuid(10);
sleep(1000);
return 0;
}
Will it misbehave on different kernels or architectures, then x86_64 GNU/Linux?
If it is okay, then let's consider why system users are usually used? As
far as I understand, to run some process and
- protect it from other processed
- protect other processes from it
- do not allow it to write files it do not need
- do not allow it to read files it do not need
setuid(BIG_INT) is fine to solve first two tasks. About third we can do
following:

Why go all this trouble to just purge system user? While I do appreciate this nit-picking spirit, it is aganist spirit of Debian. After all, leftover system user is just one extra line in /etc/passwd and one more wasted UID, but we have ~32k of them.

I can't reproduce it. Here is my minimal working example:
#include
#include
#include
#include
int
main(void)
{
GDBM_FILE db = gdbm_open("store.db", 0, GDBM_NEWDB|GDBM_SYNC,
0644, NULL);
datum datum, key;
if (!db) {
fprintf(stderr, "Failed to open database: %s",
gdbm_strerror(gdbm_errno));
return 1;
}
datum.dptr = malloc(100);
datum.dsize = snprintf(datum.dptr, 1000, "%d", (int)
(time(NULL)));
gdbm_store(db, datum, datum, GDBM_REPLACE);
for (key = gdbm_firstkey(db); key.dptr; key = gdbm_nextkey(db,
key)) {
printf("%s\n", key.dptr);
}
return 0;
}
As I understand your report, this program every invokation would output
one more line then on previous. At least on my system, this program
outputs exacly one line -- current time. I linked this program with
libgdbm3_1.8.3-13.1. Same behaviour with libgdbm4.
Moreover, in gdbm-1.12 source there is following lines in src/gdbmopen.c:144
case GDBM_NEWDB:
dbf->desc = open (dbf->name, O_RDWR|O_CREAT|fbits, mode);
need_trunc = TRUE;
break;
I understand, that this bug is almost 10 years old. So with reasoning
above I close it instead of marking +moreinfo/+unreproducible. Feel free
to reopen if you still experience problems.

Your first bug report is very good. Thank you.
But it is not real bug. Issue is that you call your function `write',
which is collision with normal write(2) function.
In this situation I would expect linker error, but what actually happens
is that your function shadows write(2) one. Problem is that `gdbm_open'
internally uses write(2), so here we have endless rescursion.
If you have little available descriptors, result will be as you described.
If you have many available described, result will be stack overflow and
segfault. It happens on my system.
Try renaming your `write' function into `my_own_write' and check again.
Closing bug for now. Feel free to reopen it, if `my_own_write' would still
misbehave.

BTW, main function must return something, otherwise exit code is

I am debian maintainer of dvtm, but I am not convinced yet that removing
signal(SIGPIPE, SIG_IGN) would do more good then evil. Link to something
like 'signal(SIGPIPE, SIG_IGN) considered harmful'?
So far, it looks to me that you are artificially pushing your opinion on
what other programs should or should not do. No offense.
Sure, I was able to find workarounds, but like when things just work,
don't we?

Hi Dmitry, I'm still much interested in the djbdns (provides tinydns-run) and bcron packages, while twoftpd isn't that fency any more. If you want, please take over maintainership for twoftpd. For the other two packages, I suggest you switch them to debhelper (I never liked that) with my permission, since it appears to be really necessary. Add yourself as uploader, but please (not yet) switch the maintainer. Best Regards, thanks for all the time you put into Debian, Gerrit. --- End Message ---
