This looks like it's probably a kernel bug, or maybe (though less likely IMO) a bug in the efivar userspace library. Reassigning to the kernel for now. I suspect "strace -f -s 1024 grub-install --target=x86_64-efi" and "strace -f -s 1024 efibootmgr" might be helpful, along with checking dmesg to see if the kernel is logging any errors there. -- Colin Watson (he/him) [cjwat...@debian.org] Thanks for the advice to check dmesg - the kernel seems to think there is a firmware bug, which somehow I didn't notice earlier: [Sun Jul 11 20:36:36 2021] [Firmware Bug]: Page fault caused by firmware at PA: 0x66cd61d0 [Sun Jul 11 20:36:36 2021] WARNING: CPU: 0 PID: 66728 at arch/x86/platform/efi/quirks.c:712 efi_recover_from_page_fault+0x2a/0 xc0 [Sun Jul 11 20:36:36 2021] Modules linked in: tun ufs qnx4 hfsplus hfs cdrom minix msdos jfs xfs rfcomm ctr ccm cmac algif_has h algif_skcipher af_alg bnep binfmt_misc nls_ascii nls_cp437 vfat fat ext4 btusb ath10k_pci mbcache btrtl btbcm btintel jbd2 s nd_hda_codec_hdmi ath10k_core snd_sof_pci snd_sof_intel_byt snd_sof_intel_ipc snd_sof_intel_hda_common snd_sof_xtensa_dsp snd_ sof bluetooth snd_sof_intel_hda snd_soc_skl snd_hda_codec_realtek snd_soc_hdac_hda ath snd_hda_ext_core snd_soc_sst_ipc mac802 11 snd_hda_codec_generic snd_soc_sst_dsp ledtrig_audio intel_rapl_msr snd_soc_acpi_intel_match snd_soc_acpi jitterentropy_rng snd_hda_intel x86_pkg_temp_thermal intel_powerclamp coretemp kvm_intel snd_intel_dspcfg kvm soundwire_intel soundwire_generic_ allocation snd_soc_core joydev snd_compress soundwire_cadence uvcvideo videobuf2_vmalloc irqbypass rapl videobuf2_memops wdat_ wdt intel_cstate videobuf2_v4l2 videobuf2_common watchdog drbg rtsx_usb_ms serio_raw pcspkr cfg80211 ansi_cprng videodev [Sun Jul 11 20:36:36 2021] hid_sensor_accel_3d hid_sensor_trigger efi_pstore memstick snd_hda_codec hid_sensor_iio_common ind ustrialio_triggered_buffer ecdh_generic kfifo_buf ecc acer_wmi at24 crc16 industrialio wmi_bmof mc hid_multitouch rfkill snd_h da_core snd_hwdep soundwire_bus intel_xhci_usb_role_switch tpm_crb libarc4 roles tpm_tis tpm_tis_core snd_pcm snd_timer intel_ vbtn soc_button_array sparse_keymap ac evdev snd tpm mei_me soundcore rng_core mei int3403_thermal processor_thermal_device in tel_rapl_common int3400_thermal int340x_thermal_zone acpi_thermal_rel intel_soc_dts_iosf intel_pmc_core msr parport_pc ppdev l p parport fuse configfs efivarfs ip_tables x_tables autofs4 btrfs blake2b_generic xor raid6_pq libcrc32c crc32c_generic rtsx_usb_sdmmc rtsx_usb usbhid dm_crypt dm_mod hid_sensor_custom h

Package: evince

to the version of evince currently in wheezy, and fixes the problem:

Bug#651848: nload: incorrect output with amd64 kernel, i386 userland
Package: nload Version: 0.7.3-1 Severity: normal Running nload on an amd64 kernel with i386 userland, I get the following output, which is not correct: ### Avg: 63.47 GBit/s ### Min: 63.44 GBit/s ### Max: 63.60 GBit/s ### Ttl: 32.00 GByte I assume this is due to an 64/32 bit integer conversion issue - nload seems to be taking the system info from /sys/class/net/, but I didn't see quite how to fix it... this bug also seems to be present in the current testing version 0.7.3-1, as I built that on stable and had the same issue, so this is perhaps not the same problem as bug 300267.

The documentation says that the -H and -L options conflict, however, not
only do they not appear to conflict, but
fdupes -L -H dirs...
is exactly what I want to do to deduplicate certain collections of files.
Removing the following check from

Bug#541388: xserver-xorg: Xmodmap settings lost across suspend/hibernate
I also have this problem on one machine only, other machines work fine. I've attached an X log in case its of any use. I use both xmodmap and xinput to change settings, and both sets of changes are lost. It may be of interest to know that re-running xinput restores the desired settings, but re-running xmodmap does not.

Bug#570898: rsync: add translate.diff patch
Package: rsync Version: 3.0.3-2 Severity: wishlist There's a patch in the rsync upstream patch collection which adds a --tr flag which enables you to replace certain characters with other ones in file names. This is useful if you are trying to sync from say ext3 to vfat, where the latter file system supports a smaller character set.

Bug#515865: running evince foo.pdf from command line doesn't open new window
Le mardi 17 février 2009 à 20:44 -0600, Joseph Maher a écrit : and then run it again, you don't get a second window, and your focus gets shifted to the first, even if it is on a completely different desktop... I think this is expected, as opening another window for the same document is counterproductive. How do you think it should behave? I preferred the original behaviour, opening a new window on the current desktop - I sometimes wish to look at different parts of the same document on different desktops... Joseph

This is correct and, in turns out, deliberate, see.
http://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=343176#c4
The work-around is to use a range. If your original data was not in a
range as-is, create a new range that simply copies the data.
The documentation appears to be fixed in 1.9.x:
static GnmFuncHelp const help_small[] = {
{ GNM_FUNC_HELP_NAME, F_(SMALL: @{k}-th smallest value in a data
set.)
},
{ GNM_FUNC_HELP_ARG, F_(data:data set)},
{ GNM_FUNC_HELP_ARG, F_(k:which value to find)},
{ GNM_FUNC_HELP_NOTE, F_(If data set is empty this function returns a
#
NUM! error.) },
{ GNM_FUNC_HELP_NOTE, F_(If @{k} = 0 or @{k} is greater than the
numbe
r of data items given
this function returns a #NUM! error.)},
{ GNM_FUNC_HELP_DESCRIPTION, F_(This function is Excel compatible.)
},
{ GNM_FUNC_HELP_EXAMPLES, F_(Let us assume that the cells A1, A2, ...,
A5 contain numbers
11.4, 17.3, 21.3, 25.9, and 40.1.) },
{ GNM_FUNC_HELP_EXAMPLES, F_(Then SMALL(A1:A5,2) equals 17.3.
SMALL(A1:A5,4) equals 25.9.) },
{ GNM_FUNC_HELP_SEEALSO, PERCENTILE,PERCENTRANK,QUARTILE,LARGE},
{ GNM_FUNC_HELP_END }
};
Closing as NOTABUG because the change was deliberate and necessary to fix
implicit iteration.

Bug#515161: gnumeric: function small has changed behaviour since etch
Package: gnumeric Version: 1.8.3-5+lenny1 Severity: important In etch's gnumeric you could evaluate =small(A1, A2, A3, 2) and this would give you the second smallest value of the listed cells. This doesn't seem to work in lenny's gnumeric, though =small(A1:A3, 2) does. However, I have many old spreadsheets using the old behaviour on non-contiguous cells, so this is somewhat inconvenient. Note that the documentation describes the first behaviour, but gives an example of the second...

Bug#343139: transfig: fig2dev changes fontsize in ps/latex export
Package: transfig
Version: 1:3.2.5-alpha5-2
Severity: wishlist
If you export a .fig to ps/latex, fig2dev only allows a maximum font
size of about 41. This can be fixed by changing the file
transfig-3.2.4-rel/fig2dev/dev/texfonts.h
replace the line:
#define TEXFONTSIZE(S)(texfontsizes[((S) = MAXFONTSIZE) ? round(S)\
: (MAXFONTSIZE-1))])
with
#define TEXFONTSIZE(S) (S)
rebuilding transfig causes the specified font sizes to be passed through
to the latex file. If you actually want to get different font sizes you
also need a \usepackage{type1cm} somwhere in the tex file, eg
fig2eps -add=type1cm foo.fig
I obtained the solution here:
