bummer.


New version of gramps in Trixie upgrade.

Insisted on upgrading database advising to create backup without means.


the latter would be an upstream bug.


Most likely, but a Debian upgrade which takes the system into a state 
which requires a database upgrade while removing the ability to make a 
backup may justify a Debian News entry so users can back out of the 
software upgrade and perform the backup.



Upgraded and loaded database.

Spat error, lost new record.


could you get into detail with the last bit?
- when was the new record created?
- how was it lost?


On completing the database migration I created a new person, added birth 
and death information including a new death location and notes, and 
clicked OK.


This resulted in the python error referred to in the headline which left 
the new person with the OK button greyed out and no way to save it. The 
record was lost.


This information appears to have been lost in submitting the report:

Just after version upgrade and DB conversion.
Being unable to backup a database after upgrading Gramps and before converting 
the database is highly problematic.

I think that this causes graphical scanners to become unusable on my system but 
I've no time to analyse it.

The RTL2832 can be used as a radio scanner which could be a source of confusion.

Thank you.

Hi again,

I've found my problem: there was another version of gqrx in

Sorry for the noise though I hope this helps anyone else that strikes a

Dear Maintainer,

CVE-2017-8386 "BroadPwn" has been around for a while.

It seems Debian ships the relevant firmware in this package.

Could I impose on you to ensure that all is as it should be?

Bug#402400: state of #402400

Simon Paillard wrote:

reassign 402400 mirrors

Did you see such an error recently ?


Yes, although not as often as the GPG errors which I have seen every day this 
week.

The GPG problem, at least, is not with the mirrors.

The problem is that ISP's 'transparent' caches get out of sync and that the 
wget/dpkg/apt chain fails to use the 'no-cache' http option to force the cache 
to get an updated version of the index files on an error.


When the GPG errors occur I find the cache is presenting Release and 
Release.gpg files which do not match.


I can solve the problem by manually browsing the repository and reloading the 
relevant files


http://security.debian.org/dists/etch/updates/Release
http://security.debian.org/dists/etch/updates/Release.gpg

 while holding down the shift button in Firefox/iceweasel.

I believe the MD5SUM errors are a downstream effect of the same problem.

It would probably be more sensible to reassign this to dpkg than it is to 
assign it to mirrors.

How about "apt-get dist-upgrade"?  The Replaces/Conflicts removal mechanism
used here is so basic that even dpkg can do the automatic removal, without
any need for apt-get/aptitude.  I'm *very* surprised that aptitude is
failing here.

Does "full-upgrade" work as expected?

Bug#515918: raw sauce

2009-02-23 Thread Mark Robinson

I'm seeing this with an HPLJ5L.

The pdf source printed is not in fact raw. It is a graphical rendering of the 
pdf source. It's making my poor old printer run out of memory.


I've seen this in syslog:

Feb 24 18:40:14 localhost parport0: prnt/backend/hp.c 571: INFO: status=1000 
printing...
Feb 24 18:43:09 localhost parport0: io/hpmud/pp.c 517: compat_write_data

media-jam-error; will retry in 30 seconds...


Which is all good apart from the "Invalid argument" bit.

The file associations on this machine have been messed up by other recent 
updates.

Those Unauthorizeds seem spurious.

The filter errors may be more significant to the problem at hand.

Job 149 was a CUPS printer test page.

Must away.

Bug#497385: 1.7.1+1.6.3 works on AMD32; 1.7.2 broken on AMD64

2008-09-03 Thread Mark Robinson

AMD32:
Testing 1.7.1+1.63 was successful while my impression was that this was broken 
a day or two back. I could easily be thinking of 1.7.1 plain.


Upgrading to 1.7.2 restored the "You need to upgrade your flash player" message.

AMD64:
In the interim I have upgraded mobo/processor/ram and installed an AMD64 system.

Using 1.7.2 under the AMD64 system fails silently but does reserve the screen 
real estate for the flash content. No java[script] errors are reported.


All of the above using iceweasel and the same home directory.

Bug#479224: locking firewall clobbers localhost

2008-07-04 Thread Mark Robinson
Tags: patch

I've determined that this bug happens because Firestater locks the entire
firewall including localhost. 

In some configurations (notably Ubuntu Hardy) this blocks an esound event 
generated by firestarter itself.

I've generated a patch which allows such traffic through localhost while
Firestarter is locked which allows Firestarter to unlock itself.

See https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/firestarter/+bug/184017 for
more detail.

In a perfect, future, world it may be possible to configure Firestarter's
locked state from the GUI.

It says to "run apt-get update to correct these problems", but this is
exactly what I did and I still get the same error!


While your criticism of the suggestion in the error message is valid, I think 
the answer to your problem can be found at http://emacs.orebokech.com

Bug#463893: postgresql-8.3: please automate database upgrade between pgsql releases

I think it's important to make all upgrade processes as automatic as possible. 

It's these manual interventions which defeat many if not most people. 

We need to cater to users of applications who use postgres but who have never 
otherwise even heard of it and are unfamiliar with the commandline environment
as well as the system programmers and database gurus. 

I think an automatic upgrade with an opportunity to not upgrade (for disk
space, known problems, or whatever) is the way to go.

If any resultant fallout is then addressed the world becomes a better place.

GPSDrive is not displaying any altitude reading from my GPS (a Garmin

Does the GPS Status bar in the bottom right corner sometimes displays a 3D Fix 
which is needed to determine the altitude? The problem might be that

gpsdrive switches to n/a in the altitude widget as soon as your gps
device loses its 3D fix. If this happens frequently it might look as if
there were no altitude information altogether.
It would be helpful if you could provide a sample of collected nmea
data for example by starting gpsd with -D2 or by reading nmea sentences
directly from the device.


Some GPSes send sentences containing 2D and 3D information every second.

If your GPS sends a 2D sentence last, that could be what you are seeing most of 
the time.

2007-12-13 Thread Mark Robinson

Andreas Putzo wrote:

Looks like this is a mistake in the manual page. The correct command
line switch is now -g , for example:
  gpsdrive -g 800x600


Hi Andreas,

Thanks very much for teaching me about -g.

Sadly it's still quite badly broken, failing to correctly calculate the sizes 
for the various panels leaving critical values (lat, long etc) unreadable and 
failing to make the map the same size as the panel it's assigned to.


Further, there are obvious map rendering errors using when using neither the 
no_dir nor expedia maps at wide zooms.


The scale bar at the bottom right of the image appears to be approximately an 
order of decimal magnitude out.


The map grabbing code seems buggy too.


-s disables the splash screen shown at startup now and -r is no longer
used, see also gpsdrive --help.

The --help option spits an error message but works anyway.

The -g option does not appear in the help or the manpage, while the -s and -r 
options are incorrectly documented in both.


Menus to configure mysql and pgsql seem to have disappeared and that support 
which remains seems broken.


It's a shame that this very promising program seems to be becoming less 
functional with more development.


Perhaps it is worth considering reverting distribution to an earlier version 
which is less buggy.

Andrew's observations are confirmed.

gpsdrive has become useless to me because it always makes the window bigger

I've left severity at normal as I haven't proved that it makes wine 
uninstallable.


It shouldn't, the libcupsys2 in sid provides libcupsys2-gnutls10. But I
suppose I could change it anyway.


The report is prompted by debsecan throwing this up :

CVE-2007-0720 The CUPS service on multiple platforms allows remote...
  <http://idssi.enyo.de/tracker/CVE-2007-0720>
  - cupsys-common, cupsys-bsd, cupsys-client, libcupsys2, cupsys,
libcupsimage2 (low urgency)
  - libcupsys2-gnutls10 (low urgency, obsolete)

Bug#427462: gtkterm memory leak

2007-07-09 Thread Mark Robinson

I can confirm this bug.

I'm using gtkterm to talk to a little micro on a breadboard. Software from the 
micro spits a stream of data down the serial port. Leaving it running for 
around half a day ate up the 1GB ram in this machine leaving it thrashing.


It's possible that this is because there are no CRLFs in the stream but I 
haven't tested that.

Bug#425390: ok, so 2.0 is not in testing yet

2007-05-22 Thread Mark Robinson
but the workaround is giving me grief.

I've can reproducibly revert to 1.5 but all attempts to then follow the steps 
to install 2.0 through up a popup saying something to the effect that another 
version of icedove is running, kill it or restart your system. There's nothing 
to kill, a new x zsession doesn't work, a reboot doesn't work. I can find no 
.pid file lurking.

I am not inclined to do this.

Perhaps the "Conflicts" between 1.3.2 and 1.4.0 could be removed to prevent
this breakage.

Ok, so it's not all texlive but surely the proportion of users that need every
available language installed in vanishingly small ?

Further, as far as I can see the tex system in installed by default to display
manpages. If tex is so good at typesetting why do manpages always appear in 80
column fixed width style ?

Given that manpages always appear in 80 column fixed width form couldn't
something a little leaner be used to display them and thus consign this
behemoth to those specialists that use it's vast powers.

Bug#339744: I'm seeing this too

2007-02-15 Thread Mark Robinson
mplayer subwindow shows up and various urls are shown.

Apparent url of desired media appears and buffers, then there are two whole
screen flashes of black.

Status now shows stopped.

I assume these flashes are text mode, how do I examine them for error messages?

Bug#402400: MD5sum mismatches and GPG errors

2006-12-12 Thread Mark Robinson
Once again I argue that this issue is a release critical security issue.

How can anyone have confidence in Debian as a whole when these problems remain
unaddressed for so long and *SO MANY* bugs remain open against apt ?

I urge developers to cease adding features to apt until many of the bugs are
fixed. I fear it's time to start again at an elemental level and audit the
structure of the program.

This has the appearance of a time bomb which could destroy Debian.

I have attached a file which shows both GPG errors and MD5SUM errors during an
update I attempted this morning.

Neither of these should *ever* happen.

Bug#385878: k3bsetup; cdrecord -> wodim transition

2006-10-05 Thread Mark Robinson
Given that cdrecord has been replaced by wodim, perhaps we should be talking 
about wodim instead. If we are already looking at wodim per

http://bugs.debian.org/cgi-bin/bugreport.cgi?bug=390083
then references in the dialogues need to be patched as well.

At the moment k3bsetup is asking for my root password and then telling me it's 
not right. In the past it appeared to succeed with the su, but still failed to 
actually change the permissions on /usr/bin/cdrecord.


Setting /usr/bin/wodim suid stops k3b from trying to fire up k3bsetup, but it 
doesn't find the drive, and is thus unusable. Gnomebaker seems to be working fine.


I argue against removing k3bsetup as most, especially new, users will have 
trouble adding themselves to the cdrom group, let alone finding out that they 
need to. Perhaps k3bsetup could, perhaps optionally, add the user to the cdrom 
group instead of setting suid on the binaries.


k3b Version: 0.12.17-2+b1
wodim Version: 5:1.0~pre4-1.1

Mark

Bug#376817: apt complains

2006-08-11 Thread Mark Robinson
 Given that this appears to be an update phasing problem between 
various servers/mirrors, is it feasible to add a behaviour whereby apt tries to 
use the same server that was used for the last update as a preferred source for 
packages to be upgraded at least for the first attempt and perhaps within a day 
or two of the update ? 


Should this behaviour be promulgated in the other package management systems 
(aptitude, synaptic ...) ?


Is there an option to display the identity of source servers ?

I assume this means I can't trust this sourcecode.

I've looked for any reference to why a new gpg signature was made on 27Jul to

me ?

Surely these errors should *never* be seen and must raise questions about 
the security of the entire distribution.


Not exactly; the situation is such that apt needs a consistent view of the
archive in order to authenticate it (several different files must match),
and intermediate caches don't always provide this consistency.


When it's checking an MD5SUM it's looking at one file, when it's checking the 
gpg key it's looking at one file.


I've noticed that the packages are uploaded to the servers after the index 
files. This means that you can get the index and then have to wait an hour say 
until the packages all turn up. Would this situation not be improved by the 
index files being uploaded, or made available, last ?


Can we force the Get to blitz caches ?

Bug#376817: confirmation

2006-08-07 Thread Mark Robinson

I can confirm this behaviour.

I am seeing occasional MD5SUM errors as well as GPG failures.

Strangely it seems to work considerably better when not using the debug options 
suggested above.


I have several times seen it flag MD5SUM errors where the expected MD5SUM and 
that computed are identical.


Surely these errors should *never* be seen and must raise questions about the 
security of the entire distribution.

It would be helpful if you could give me a URL for incoming.

Thanks for removing the -s line in the help text. With respect and no urgency I 
would suggest that the following code is a slight improvement:


 print msg
 print "usage: python compilefiles.py [-f] [-q] " \
   "[-x regexp] [file ...] [-]"
 print "-f: force rebuild even if timestamps are up-to-date"
 print "-q: quiet operation"
 print "-x regexp: skip files matching the regular expression regexp"
 print "   the regexp is search for in the full path of the file"
 print "-: read filenames from stdin"
 sys.exit(2)

I replaced

> if arg == '-':
> for line in sys.stdin:  [line 90]
> files.append(line[:-1])

with


if arg == '-':
while 1:
line = sys.stdin.readline()
if line == '':
break
try:
files.append(line[:-1])
except:
pass


Which disposes of the errors above, but which instead gives


Setting up python-serial (2.2-2) ...
Traceback (most recent call last):

So I commented out this code:

#ftime = os.stat(fullname).st_mtime
#try: ctime = os.stat(cfile).st_mtime
#except os.error: ctime = 0
#if (ctime > ftime) and not force: continue

And then suffered

  Ew.


I guess that would be ewe in kiwi parlance.

The -q=n syntax is anomalous, every other option uses -x . I suggest 
that -q= be deprecated and that -qqq or -q n be encouraged instead.


  I think that would be great, and it's how things originally worked;
unfortunately, this led to user complaints (see earlier in this bug log).
And, predictably, it appears that adding a weird special case had unforseen
side effects (who woulda thunk it!)


You really expected me to actually read all that stuff ?

I've figured out how to make aptitude -qq update work but without the =2 stuff.

>  {"quiet", 0, NULL, 'q'},


  while((curopt=getopt_long(argc, argv, "DVZvhS:uiF:w:sO:fdyPt:qRro:", opts, 
NULL))!=-1)


>case 'q':
>  ++quiet;
>  seen_quiet = true;
>  break;

The problems I have reported elsehwere with weird stuff going on with cached 
package list files is preventing me grabbing the apt sources to see how it's 
done there.


I think the next step in being able to parse the -q=2 syntax is to handle 
optopt somehow, but I completely unfamiliar with all that stuff.


http://bugs.debian.org/cgi-bin/bugreport.cgi?bug=349974 is an example where bad 
syntax is not picked up (-q10). Could be merged, when this is sorted properly, 
that will be too.


A side note: Attempting to compile aptitude throws up a linker error about 
not being able to find cppunit. I assume this should be added as a 
build-depends ?


  That should only happen when you run "make check" or do a package
build, and libcppunit-dev is a build-depends already AFAIK.  Which version
are you trying to build and how?


I'm playing with aptitude 0.4.1-1 grabbed from unstable.

I read INSTALL and did ./configure, make  and make install.

There are a couple of other libraries that are required which ./configure threw 
up and which I installed but the requirement for libcppunit doesn't show up 
until ld is invoked.


Merely minor drama.

cheerio

Bug#217477: --quirk

2006-01-25 Thread Mark Robinson

this is still borken

piwakawaka:~# aptitude -qq update
Expected a number after -q=, got q
piwakawaka:~#

which is a lie, there was no -q=

Here's the relevant code from main.cc in aptitude-0.4.1:

case 'q':
  if(optarg == 0)
++quiet;
  else
{
  if(*optarg == '=')
++optarg;

  if(*optarg == 0)
{
  fprintf(stderr, _("Expected a number after -q=\n"));
  return -1;
}

  char *tmp;
  quiet = strtol(optarg, &tmp, 0);

  if(*tmp != '\0')
{
  fprintf(stderr, _("Expected a number after -q=, got %s\n"),
  optarg);
  return -1;
}
}
  seen_quiet = true;
  break;

Obviously the block dealing with the parameters needs to be defined contingent 
on the existance of the "=".



case 'q':
  if(optarg == 0)
++quiet;
  else
{
  if(*optarg == '=')
{
  ++optarg;

  if(*optarg == 0)
{
  fprintf(stderr, _("Expected a number after -q=\n"));
  return -1;
}

  char *tmp;
  quiet = strtol(optarg, &tmp, 0);

  if(*tmp != '\0')
{
  fprintf(stderr, _("Expected a number after -q=, got 
%s\n"),
optarg);
  return -1;
}
}
}
  seen_quiet = true;
  break;


which then gives the behaviour where

aptitude -q -q moo
aptitude -q=2 moo
aptitude -vVsq upgrade

work while

aptitude -qq moo
aptitude -qvvv moo
aptitude -qvVs upgrade

fail as all options after the first q are ignored.

I also changed the line

{"quiet", 2, NULL, 'q'},

in opts[]={ to

{"quiet", 0, NULL, 'q'},

but it still doesn't behave as I would expect.

The -q=n syntax is anomalous, every other option uses -x . I suggest 
that -q= be deprecated and that -qqq or -q n be encouraged instead.


I can't spend any more time on this now and I'm at almost all at sea.

Perhaps a proficient coder could have a look-see.

A side note: Attempting to compile aptitude throws up a linker error about not 
being able to find cppunit. I assume this should be added as a build-depends ?


The docs may need some attention after all this.

Bug#346138: apt: Weird stuff happening with cached index files

2006-01-05 Thread Mark Robinson
Package: apt
Version: 0.6.43
Severity: normal


Apologies in advance that this is a bit woolly.

Since the key debacle (though I dunno what the point is of using keys when
the package has so many hundreds of open bugs) I am having trouble with the
index files. Watch this :

Bug#343539: the daemon doesn't start after upgrade

2005-12-15 Thread Mark Robinson

Found it.

After the upgrade both /etc/cups/cupsd.conf and /etc/cups/cups.d/ports.conf 
contain the line


Port 631

It is assumed that each appearance of this line causes the daemon to attempt to 
grab the port, the second resulting in failure.


Removing either one restores operation.

all the best
Mark

I'm seeing this behaviour too.

twice.

I assume cups is competing with itself for port 631 which appears otherwise 
uncommitted.

Bug#330371: scsi: unknown opcode 0x01

2005-10-18 Thread Mark Robinson

Thank you Michal,

I can confirm that "scsi: unknown opcode 0x01" appears in my dmesg.

The error message output was provided as requested.

My naievete meant that I couldn't tell which of the many error messages
in the output were significant. My instinct was that the one about
suid not being set was the problem. I tried to look at the install
scripts to see if there had been a change there, but the fog defeated me.

I have attempted to apply your one-liner, I downloaded the source,
applied the patch (manually), ran 'make' and then 'make install', but
no joy.

There's a bunch of stuff talking about gnu make being bugridden, and
so I tried the Gmake thing referred to in README.compile but gmake
(which it calls) is not in the distribution.

I installed smake, and tried to compile and install using this as
recommended by the author, but again no joy.

Then I discovered that a binary had in fact been created, buried in obj,
but had not been installed into the system. I copied this to /usr/bin
and whaddya know, it seems to work.

Perhaps a brief addition to debian/README.debian explaining the official
technique for compiling and installing the package for debian would be
useful, perhaps with a link from README.debian among all the existing
README.* files too.

Thank you again for your patch.

regards
Mark

Folks with systems broken by this may get back on the road by removing 
xserver-common and reinstalling the old xserver-xfree86 and xserver-common 
using dpkg -i, perhaps with suitable --force options.


The old packages are gone from the main archive, but can still be wgot from

ftp://debian.paradise.net.nz/debian/pool/main/x/xfree86/xserver-common_4.3.0.dfsg.1-14_i386.deb
ftp://debian.paradise.net.nz/debian/pool/main/x/xfree86/xserver-xfree86_4.3.0.dfsg.1-14_i386.deb

being a mirror which seems to have a broken updating system.

Bug#249499: CRON[19820]: Critical error - immediate abort

2005-10-01 Thread Mark Robinson

Hi folks,

At the same time as the upload fixing this bug was applied to my system 
most if not all cron jobs started dying with the error in the topic.


I googled http://www.developpez.net/forums/viewtopic.php?t=399189

Il s'agissait en fait du fichier /etc/pam.d/cron
Un problème d'authentification.
J'ai remplacé la ligne
auth required pam_env.so
par
auth required pam_unix.so
Et tout est rentré dans l'ordre.

So I did and force-reloaded cron which made the error message go away.

I haven't consciously done anything that would cause this and

-rw-r--r--  1 root root 289 Jul  6 02:45 /etc/pam.d/cron.critical-error

is well in the past.

Is something perhaps broken in this upload ?

all the best
Mark

Bug#328704: workaround

2005-09-25 Thread Mark Robinson

Further to Samuel's information ...

Removing libexif-gtk4 (which gtkam depends on) and then reinstalling 
gtkam brings things to rights.


cheers
Mark

Bug#247857: multimon crashes X and lots of other things when run su from Konsole

2005-04-30 Thread Mark Robinson
Running multimon in this way crashes X, smbd, nmbd ntpd, apache, 
apache-ssl, spamd, portmap, famd, syslogd, named, freshclam, cupsd, 
postfix, postgres, smartd, sshd, atd, cron, webmin, munin-node,  all the 
/sbin/getty processes.

It leave mysqld and the [] kernel processes running.
Scary, and I am well out of my depth.
Feel free to ask for more info.

This is happening for me too.
as root at command line
aptitude install multimon
multimon
then in X as a less privileged user
Alt/F2 multimon
then nothing does much apart from the window manager X which immediately 
crashes X

Bug#298059: couldn't unlink /var/log/ntpstats/peerstats: Permission denied

2005-03-22 Thread Mark Robinson
I've just upgraded my sid system and now have a log full of

...
Mar 23 18:33:49 piwakawaka ntpd[22969]: couldn't  
unlink /var/log/ntpstats/peerstats: Permission denied
Mar 23 18:33:49 piwakawaka ntpd[22969]: can't 
open /var/log/ntpstats/peerstats.20050323: Permission denied
Mar 23 18:33:50 piwakawaka ntpd[22969]: couldn't 
unlink /var/log/ntpstats/peerstats: Permission denied
Mar 23 18:33:50 piwakawaka ntpd[22969]: can't 
open /var/log/ntpstats/peerstats.20050323: Permission denied
...

The latest file is

-rw-r--r--  2 ntp ntp  40957 Mar 16 20:01 /var/log/ntpstats/peerstats.20050316

Did the upgrade change the permissions/ownerships of these files appropriately 
for no-root processes ?

-rw-r--r--  2 ntp ntp 40957 Mar 16 20:01 /var/log/ntpstats/peerstats

looks ok, but

ls: /var/log/ntpstats/peerstats.20050323: No such file or directory

The process still seems to be running as root, yet seems to have been 
restarted as expected :

root 22969  0.0  0.3   3964  3964 ?SLs  18:33   
0:00 /usr/sbin/ntpd -p /var/run/ntpd.pid

Figuring out why a process running as root can't get 
at /var/log/ntpstats/peerstats is beyond my skills.

Mark

Bug#174090: aptitude loses the plot on 404s

2005-02-11 Thread Mark Robinson
aptitude does not handle missing .deb files correctly.
It marks them as upgraded [EMAIL PROTECTED]
This is very dangerous.
This also highlights a problem with the mirroring system ... the index 
files are uploaded to the mirrors first, whereas prudence would see them 
upgraded to the mirrors after all the relevant debs had been uploaded.
