Bug#819273: A licence file has finally been added to the RobotoMono github repo!

2024-03-07 Thread Philip Armstrong

A licence file has finally been added to the Roboto Mono github repo!

It’s now officially Apache-2.0 licenced:

  https://github.com/googlefonts/RobotoMono/blob/main/LICENSE.txt

If someone is willing to do the work of adding Roboto-Mono to the 
fonts-roboto package that would be great :)


cheers, Phil

Looking at /usr/share/texlive/texmf-dist/tex/hitex/base/hiplainpage.tex & 
diffing it with the
version at CTAN, it seems that the latter spells the word in question as 
“preferred”.

If I edit prefered -> preferred in the Debian file, the install completes 
successfully.

cheers,

Phil

Bug#979407: amd64-microcode: Amd64 microcode is not being loaded by the kernel from early initramfs.

2021-01-06 Thread Philip Armstrong
Package: amd64-microcode
Version: 3.20191218.1
Severity: normal

On boot, the cpus are reported as having the following microcode version by the 
kernel:

  microcode: CPU0: patch_level=0x0800820c

But this is not the latest version of the microcode, which is 0x800820d & if I 
trigger a microcode
load from the shell with

  echo 1 > /sys/devices/system/cpu/microcode/reload

after booting then the microcode is updated to that newer version.

I have checked & the initramfs does contain an uncompressed cpio archive 
containing the microcode
file kernel/x86/microcode/AuthenticAMD.bin as expected.

So either the kernel is not seeing this, or for some reason it does not contain 
the latest microcode
version, despite that latest version being the one loaded from 
/lib/firmware/amd64-microcode when
triggered post-boot.

It would be nice to sort this out! Any suggestons as to where to start?

cheers, Phil Armstrong

Bug#728442: gnome-control-center crashes gnome-shell trying to raise privileges

2013-11-01 Thread Philip Armstrong
Package: gnome-control-center
Version: 1:3.8.3-3
Severity: normal

Pressing the Unlock button on the gnome-control-center user manager
page causes the entire desktop to freeze for about 5s after which
gnome-shell appears to crash  restart the following error is reported
by g-c-c:

$ gnome-control-center
(gnome-control-center:30973): Gtk-WARNING **: Error acquiring

org.gnome.controlcenter.user-accounts.administration

Obviously this might be a bug in another part of gnome, but I've no
idea where to start looking. The password entering infrastructure for
things like gpg works fine if that's relevant at all.

I see the following output in /var/log/auth.log at the same time:

Bug#623340: libunac1: Type error in unac.c causes segfault

2011-04-19 Thread Philip Armstrong
Package: libunac1

A function call in unac.c ought to use size_t rather than int. I think
this is the cause of a segfault I've been trying to track down in
flactag.

Patch attached.

Bug#598330: libvirt-bin: libvirtd is failing to start due to use of unimplemented iptables option

2010-09-28 Thread Philip Armstrong
Package: libvirt-bin
Version: 0.8.3-1
Severity: grave
Tags: sid
Justification: renders package unusable

Libvirtd is using a new iptables option which isn't implemented in the
sid version of iptables:

# /usr/sbin/libvirtd

There's some more information in Gentoo bug 334921:
  http://bugs.gentoo.org/334921

virtd is unusable at the current time until this bug is fixed, either
by patched out the relevant code in libvirtd (as detailed in that
Gentoo bug) or upgrading the version of iptables in sid; as it
currently stands at the moment, libvirtd has a hard dependency on the
later version of iptables.

cheers,

Bug#550083: grub-pc: Grub2 has trouble with lvm on md raid1

2009-10-07 Thread Philip Armstrong
Package: grub-pc
Version: 1.97~beta4-1
Severity: normal

Grub2 fails to boot directly into my root on LVM on md raid1 setup.

At boot time, I get

Grub loading, followed by a pause, then a biosdisk read error is
printed, followed by another pause (10s) or so, then entering rescue
mode, another pause then finally the grub menu appears on screen.

So, grub is successfully booting, but more by luck than judgement it
seems!

This appears to be launchpad bug 396564, but there's not much of use
there, except for confirmation of the bug from other sources.

Happy to try any debugging suggestions.

Phil

Bug#548873: Acknowledgement (xserver-xorg-video-radeon: Latest X server crashes on startup inside the radeon driver)

2009-09-29 Thread Philip Armstrong

reassign 548873 xserver-xorg-core 2:1.6.4-1
thanks

Addendum.

Downgrading from xserver-xorg-core 2:1.6.4-1 to 2:1.6.3.901-1 fixes
the problem.

Refiled against xserver-xorg-core.

Make sure you upgrade epiphany-gecko, not just epiphany-browser.


Ah: epiphany-gecko doesn't appear to have hit the UK mirror
yet. Presumably the other packages don't actually depend on
epiphany-gecko 2.22.3-5.

(In fact, epiphany-gecko for i386 hasn't even hit the main debian
archive yet.)

I'll try again when it does  report back if the bug is still
there. Hopefully not!

Also, the dpkg-reconfigure xserver-xorg process fails to detect my

fails to do so: after the attempt at autodetection I end up being
asked to give the full monitor specs regardless. The Xserver detects
the monitor just fine as far as I can see from the logs. Should I file
a separate bug?

Looks like not all of 1:7.3+7 has arrived yet. I'll try it when it
becomes available.

It may be relevant that this machine has been pretty much continually
upgraded for the last six or seven years, mostly tracking
unstable. It's not exactly a fresh install of Debian ;)

OK, just done an update  dragged in 1:7.3+7. Problem still exists.

Just to test things, I tried removing the debconf config.dat cache
file, so as to get all the defaults from the new package, but it
didn't make any difference.

Oh wait: I've found the problem!

I didn't have discover installed (it was doing annoying things to my
machine in the past) and this wasn't being picked up
anywhere. Installing discover fixes the problem. Looks like the
configuration needs to be aware of whether discover is installed or
not, since it's currently a 'recommends' not a 'depends'.

Bug#448790: epiphany-browser: Epiphany dies attempting to display large image

2007-10-31 Thread Philip Armstrong
Package: epiphany-browser
Version: 2.20.0-3
Severity: normal

Trying to display this image:

  http://www.dumpert.nl/mediabase/foto/7f8dad84_humanity.jpg

causes epiphany (and any other gecko based browser, so maybe the bug
should be against one of the libraries?) to die with an X11 error on
my machine:

  The program 'epiphany-browser' received an X Window System error.
  This probably reflects a bug in the program.
  The error was 'BadAlloc (insufficient resources for operation)'.
(Details: serial 3587 error_code 11 request_code 53 minor_code 0)

Now, it maybe that the X server couldn't allocate enough memory (no
idea why, but I'm using the radeon driver with an R200 with EXA turned
on. I'll have to see if turning off EXA makes any difference...) but
if that's the case then the browser shouldn't just die; it should
refuse to display the image with an error. Really of course, there's
no reason why it shouldn't be able to display the image even if
there's not enough X resources to be able to store the whole image on
the server: eog manages to display the image just fine.

cheers, Phil

2007-07-18 Thread Philip Armstrong

Package: tix
Version: 8.4.0-6
Severity: wishlist

Although the Tix page at http://tix.sf.net/ doesn't mention it, there
do appear to have been a couple of Tix point releases made over the
last couple of years, which are available from the sourceforge
download page. The current release appears to be version 8.4.2 


See the files page for the Tix sourceforge project:

The author named in the changelog for the new releases appears to be

Bug#429998: enscript: A better haskell.st script

2007-06-21 Thread Philip Armstrong
Package: enscript
Version: 1.6.4-11
Severity: wishlist
Tags: patch

The haskell.st shipped with enscript is a bit dumb. Attached is a
better version (in my opinion obviously). It highlights datatype
constructors and gets rid of the buggy function type highlighting. It
also adds a couple of new keywords which were not in the original
('qualified' and 'as').

No longer have the G400 to hand (it's in the mediabeast), so can't
actually check...

Given that xftcache doesn't even exist as a binary in stable (etch), I
can't reproduce the problem as reported!

(In general, web browsers seem to be OK with Helvetica as far as I can
recall these days.)

Please feel free to close the bug.

I didn't use that particular patch, but one that uses a goto into the
standard function exit/cleanup path.  


However, e2fsprogs is still mostly written in a pre-C99 style, because
there are systems where free() will fail or crash if passed the NULL
pointer.  (I'll note that the gdb coding standards still requires the
use of xfree(), which does the null pointer check because of this
concession to pragmatics.)  So Steinar simply wrote the patch in the
style of the surrounding code, which is a Good Thing.


Argh. (Point taken on the style issue though.)

Phil

ps: Wasn't free(NULL) supposed to be OK in C*89* ?? googles Ah yes,
the Rationale specifically mentions it: The null pointer is specified
as a valid argument to this function to reduce the need for
special-case coding. The real world beats 18 year old standard every
time of course, but are there really actual systems still around
(which e2fsprogs is expected to run on) that crash on free(NULL) ? A
bit depressing if so...

Bug#375530: mutt segfaults if mailbox is emptied from underneath it

 tags 375530 + unreproducible

 Re: Philip Armstrong 2006-06-26 [EMAIL PROTECTED]
  Steps to reproduce:
  
  1) Open mutt on mailbox with an email in it.
  2) Open the email in mutt
  3) Open a second mutt and delete the email from the mailbox. Quit this
 mutt
  4) Hit q in the first mutt. It will say Mailbox was externally
 modified.  Flags may be wrong. at the bottom, and the flags will
 change to F.
  5) Hit $ to sync mailboxes: Instant segfault -- *** glibc detected ***
 double free or corruption (!prev): 0x0817ad60 *** Aborted
 
 thanks for the report and sorry we didn't reply earlier.
 
 I just tried to reproduce it with the current mutt version in
 etch/sid - it works.
 
 Can you still reproduce it on your machine?

Not anymore: the new behaviour is that the first mutt thinks the email
is still there, but can't display it anymore...which is better than
segfaulting I guess.

I think I eventually tracked this down to being a result of the

Bug#262038: Here's a backtrace with dbg symbols

I'm seeing this crash too: epiphany crashes on print every time (to a

Here's a backtrace with debug symbols. Looks like it might actually be
a fontconfig bug, it's dying in FcCharSetDdestroy().

Bug#262038: Here's a backtrace with dbg symbols

2006-11-15 Thread Philip Armstrong
Missed out some dbg symbol packages the first time around. I think
I've got the full set in this backtrace.

Looking at the source at
http://gitweb.freedesktop.org/?p=fontconfig;a=blob;h=5da131283d07f17991fbe361c239511282dd9a61;hb=b9cc1c4ed81c8caefb5b857f37fdc24e804a5ef9;f=src/fccharset.c
it looks like 

void

  53 FcCharSetDestroy (FcCharSet *fcs)
  54 {
  55 int i;
  56 
  57 if (fcs-ref == FC_REF_CONSTANT)
  58 {

So FcCharSetDestroy() is being given a duff pointer by the
nsFontMetricsPS destructor (gdb says FcCharSet *fcs doesn't point to
any allocated memory).

Bug#375530: mutt segfaults if mailbox is emptied from underneath it

2006-06-26 Thread Philip Armstrong
Package: mutt
Version: 1.5.11+cvs20060403-1
Severity: normal

Steps to reproduce:

1) Open mutt on mailbox with an email in it.
2) Open the email in mutt
3) Open a second mutt and delete the email from the mailbox. Quit this
   mutt
4) Hit q in the first mutt. It will say Mailbox was externally
   modified.  Flags may be wrong. at the bottom, and the flags will
   change to F.
5) Hit $ to sync mailboxes: Instant segfault -- *** glibc detected ***
   double free or corruption (!prev): 0x0817ad60 *** Aborted

Alternatively, replace step 5 with another quit and get the
same end result.

You have to be actually reading the email in the first mutt for the
corruption to occur. If the first mutt is on the index view, then
there's no segfault.

Bug#369947: ghc6: ghc 6.4.1 conflicts with gcc4 according to 6.4.2 release notes

2006-06-02 Thread Philip Armstrong
Package: ghc6
Version: 6.4.1-2.1
Severity: important

The release notes for ghc 6.4.2 state:

  6.4.2 now works correctly with gcc 4.x; if you are using gcc 4.x,
  then you need 6.4.2.

  http://haskell.org/ghc/docs/6.4.2/html/users_guide/release-6-4-2.html

Since gcc4 is now the default C compiler in unstable, this means that
the current ghc installation is invoking gcc4. (I've checked)

An upgrade to 6.4.2 therefore seems more important than just
wishlist.

NB. I've packaged this release up for my own purposes, using your
package as a base. As far as I can see, directfb 25.1 has accepted
most of your patches, so the Debian patches dir collapses to something
pretty small.

I can pass on my patch if you want it, but if mostly consists of
ripping out the stuff that's already been applied upstream and leaving
the rest alone, so there's not much actual work there. I think there's
one change in the keyboard symbol list somewhere which needs an extra
patch.

Bug#358564: fuse-utils is uninstallable if kernel fuse module is not installed

2006-03-23 Thread Philip Armstrong
Package: fuse-utils
Version: 2.5.2-3
Severity: grave
Justification: renders package unusable

fuse-utils appears to be uninstallable if /dev/fuse does not exist. If
you use udev, then /dev/fuse will only exist if the fuse kernel module
is available:

# dpkg --configure -a
Setting up fuse-utils (2.5.2-3) ...
creating fuse device...
creating fuse group...
The group `fuse' already exists as a system group. Exiting...
chown: cannot access `/dev/fuse': No such file or directory
dpkg: error processing fuse-utils (--configure):
 subprocess post-installation script returned error exit status 1
# modprobe fuse
# dpkg --configure -a
Setting up fuse-utils (2.5.2-3) ...
creating fuse device...
creating fuse group...
The group `fuse' already exists as a system group. Exiting...

Installing fuse-utils should not depend on the prescence of the fuse
module in the kernel. Perhaps this shouldn't be a grave bug, since
fuse is now shipped with the standard kernel  can be installed if
required to get around the bug. It does require manual intervention
however.

 So if /dev/fuse file doesn't exist this part of code should be skipped. 

The second line is wrong: /dev/.static/dev/fuse exists (because
MAKEDEV created it at some point presumably), but /dev/fuse doesn't,
so an error is reported by chown.

Did you mean:

Bug#354991: installation-report: Partman fails to detect windows LDM partitions

Partman can't see the windows dynamic disk partitions, even though the
kernel can.

  # cat /proc/partitions

 8 1   39070048 sda1

 816  244198584 sdb
 817   39062016 sdb1
 818  205125632 sdb2

Which is just fine (these are the partitions created by the windows
install -- I'm looking to install Debian in /dev/sdb1)

However, the partman partition editor screen looks like this:

  SCSI4 (0,0,0) (sda) - 250.1 GB ATA WDC WD2500SD-01K
#1 primary   40.0 GB B   ntfs
#2 primary  210.0 GB
  SCSI5 (0,0,0) (sdb) - 250.1 GB ATA WDC WD2500SD-01K
#1 primary  250.1 GB ext3

Which means that partman is reading the dos partition table on the
discs :(

Can partman be made to use the kernel's idea of where the partitions
are, even if it can't create or change them? (parted doesn't
understand ldm at this juncture AFAIK)

Given that the kernel is happy with the partitions, it seems a shame
to have to abort the installation at this point.

cheers, Phil

 What do you mean by dynamic partitions? Do you mean you have them set up 
 as RAID in the BIOS (dmraid)? In that case that is indeed not supported 
 by the installer currently.

No, they're in the new (not so very new now) windows partition
format. Nothing to do with dmraid.

It does happen that Windows will only software raid partitions which
are in the LDM (Logical Disk Manager) format, which I suppose it might
be nice if dmraid could detect (it can't at the moment) but that's not
relevant to this problem.

I got around it by switching to a shell, using debootstrap to install
 then chrooting in  making the system bootable by installing a
kernel, lilo etc etc.

It just seems unfortunate that there's a lovely set of kernel device
nodes that I could use, if only I could get to them in the installer.

 What I read from it, is that it has a another disklabel
 I now can imagine why partmen fails, but _I_ have no clue how to fix it.

Indeed. Why MS couldn't just use Intel's GPT disklabel instead I have
no idea. NIH syndrome presumably.

If there was a way to get partman to not use parted to detect the
partitions, but to just use the existing kernel detected ones in
/proc/partitions (which of course would not be editable) then that
would at least allow pre-existing partitions to be used by the
installer. Perhaps partman is too closely intertwined with parted for
this to be possible -- I haven't looked.

Bug#349580: fetchmail: Fetchmail stops after delivering first bounce to postmaster alias

2006-01-23 Thread Philip Armstrong
Package: fetchmail
Version: 6.3.1-4
Severity: important

When fetchmail gets a multidrop email which contains an undeliverable
address, it delivers the bounce to the postmaster address in
/etc/fetchmailrc and then stops altogether, regardless of whether any
emails remain to be downloaded. Changing whether fetchmail uses a uidl
file makes no difference to this behaviour.

After downgrading to 6.2.5.4, everything works as expected. Has
something changed that I've missed? I've had a rootle through the
changelogs but nothing jumpe out at me.

Sample debug run follows:

# /etc/init.d/fetchmail debug-run

Bug#337922: too much aggressive HELO_DYNAMIC_* tests

 Yes, I am arguing that the scores for these two tests are too much
 aggressive.
 The message was rejected (even after a -2.3 bonus score!) *only* because
 it had a generic-looking rDNS hostname also used in the HELO[1]:
 
  Received: from dsl-217-155-153-11.zen.co.uk (dsl-217-155-153-11.zen.co.uk 
  [217.155.153.11])

That's a static IP allocation. Check the whois data for 217.155.153.11
It should never *be* triggering any dynamic IP rulesets (in a perfect
world). If it does, then the ruleset is broken. (Or my ISP is putting
my IP address in the DUL which is possible I suppose -- I've never
checked.)

 This may not have been the wisest choice by the administrator
 considering the circumstances, but I think it's hard to argue that
 people should use an HELO string different from the rDNS...

Quite. If I set it differently to the rDNS then I hit another set of
reject rules. Unfortunately, my ISP doesn't currently offer the
ability to set my own rDNS to match my personal domain, which is what
I'd prefer to do obviously.

 If after this you still believe that a 7.7 score is correct then please
 say so, at least he (who I Cc'ed) will know why in the future all his
 mail will be rejected by spamassassin. :-)

7.7!

Seems extreme for someone who has a static ip address  has set the
SMTP HELO to match the rDNS for that ip. Given that this is
*precisely* what is suggested by the relevant RFCs I'm slightly
peeved!

Should I prod spamassassin upstream to whinge?

Bug#337922: too much aggressive HELO_DYNAMIC_* tests

 What are those other reject rules?

I'm not referring to spamassissin specifically -- I've had mail
rejected by smtp servers for both having a address the HELO which
didn't match the reverse DNS string and for using a bare IP address.

Such servers are breaking the RFCs of course, but it's understandable.

 The problem here is *not* simply that your rDNS looks dynamic in any
 way.  We in SpamAssassin understand that many ISPs still do that, c'est la
 vie. The problem, instead, is threefold:
 
   1. that the rDNS string appears symptomatic of a dynamic pool
 
   2. that you're delivering direct-to-MX
 
   3. that the HELO string matches the dynamic-looking rDNS
 
 The combination of all 3 has been a very strong spam signature with
 virtually nonexistent nonspam hits, for over a year.
 
 The easiest part to fix is number 3.  Change your MTA to use its own name
 (e.g. mail.yourdomain.com) as the HELO string, instead of whatever rDNS
 it has been assigned.
 
 To the best of my knowledge and experience, using a HELO string that
 doesn't match rDNS will not cause issues with filtering elsewhere, as it's
 SOP for many other domains.

I've had mail rejected.

 I'm seeing 4.7 here, nowhere near 7.7.

Still peeved :)

It turns out that my ISP has got around to offering custom rDNS
entries, so I suspect I'll be doing that in order to fix this.

Are the available DUL lists so unreliable that your pattern matching
is better? Many ADSL ISPs in this country are using this kind of
naming scheme with both static and dynamic IP allocation.

Nope. I tried that:

This appears to be the same problem as bug #256790.

If the running daemon's on disk binary has changed, the
/proc/pid/exe will look something like:

  lrwxrwxrwx  1 root root 0 2005-11-07 13:22 exe - /sbin/udevd (deleted)

instead of 

  lrwxrwxrwx  1 root root 0 2005-11-07 13:22 exe - /sbin/udevd

Could this be the source of the problem? I believe s-s-d is using
/proc/pid/exe to see if the argument given is actually a running
program. Would it be sensible to get s-s-d to match on the strings
postfixed with  (deleted) in order to avoid this problem? I don't
know how kernel dependant that postfix string is though...

It does make s-s-d completely unreliable in the presence of things
like prelink at the moment.

Perhaps prelink should be leaving the old binaries around
(dotted-versions in the same directory perhaps?). Then /proc/pid/exe
could look something like

  lrwxrwxrwx  1 root root 0 2005-11-07 13:22 exe - /sbin/.udevd.original

and perhaps s-s-d, prelink and anything else that likes to alter
binaries could agree on a renaming scheme to match on. 

Then programs like prelink could simply check for running instances by
rootling through /proc/pid/exe and leave a renamed binary around if
they find one. s-s-d and co would then check for this renaming if they
fail to find the requested running binary.

Since you only requested a single operation it is extremely likely
that
the package is simply not installable and a bug report against

With PNPBIOS set, the kernel seems to think that the io range is in

cheers,

Phil

 could you please look at the following ide dma bug report for piix in
 debian - http://bugs.debian.org/cgi-bin/bugreport.cgi?bug=289770
 full dmesg of both 2.6.8 and 2.6.10 are posted there.

Incidentally, this may be the same bug as Debian bug #284558:

  http://bugs.debian.org/cgi-bin/bugreport.cgi?bug=284558

which involves more recent PIIX hardware.

 2.6.9 is borked for piix, but 2.6.10 works for other,
 aboves doesn't look like ide breakage,
 but could be related to acpi.
 
 can you try to boot 2.6.10 appended with pci=noacpi
 and post that dmesg.

ACPI is disabled anyway -- the BIOS on this laptop is pre 1999.

I'll try explicitly disabling it though.

Bug#289770: kernel-image-2.6.10-1-686: 2.6.10 fails to set up DMA on my IBM thinkpad

2005-01-10 Thread Philip Armstrong
Package: kernel-image-2.6.10-1-686
Version: 2.6.10-3
Severity: normal

I have a thinkpad 600E. In the 2.6.8 Debian kernel, DMA is correctly
set up for the hard drive and DVD-ROM (hda and hdb respectively). In
both 2.6.9 and 2.6.10, the kernel doesn't believe that DMA is
available, although according the hdparm, the hard drive thinks that
it is in UDMA mode 2.

Needless to say, this has an unfortunate effect on the performance of
the laptop!

I was going to add this report to a similar bug reported against an
earlier kernel, but couldn't find it. Besides, 2.6.10 still has the
bug so...

Any suggestions appreciated.

cheers,

Phil
