Bug#308368: ITP: exo -- Library with extensions for Xfce

2005-05-09 Thread Emanuele Rocca
Package: wnpp
Severity: wishlist
Owner: Debian Xfce Maintainers [EMAIL PROTECTED]

  Version : 0.3.0
  Upstream Author : Benedikt Meurer [EMAIL PROTECTED]
* URL : http://libexo.os-cillation.com/

  Description : Library with extensions for Xfce

 libexo is a library for Xfce that contains a bunch of additional widgets 
 and a framework for editable toolbars (an improved version of the framework
 present in GNOME), light-weight session management support, functions to
 automatically synchronize object properties (based on GObject Binding
 Properties) and several miscelleanous utility and helper functions for
 application developers.
 .
 While Xfce ships with quite a few libraries that are primarly targeted at
 desktop development, libexo is targeted at application development, with a
 focus on applications for Xfce.

Bug#308813: --force-yes needed by apt in experimental

2005-05-12 Thread Emanuele Rocca
Hi,

I've just noticed that the version of apt which is currently in
experimental wants that you supply the --force-yes flag when apt-get is
called with the -y option.

The attached patch adds the --force-yes flag where needed.

Thanks.

Bug#305450: wishlist for urlview

2005-05-15 Thread Emanuele Rocca
Hello Justin,

* Justin Vander Ziel [EMAIL PROTECTED], [2005-04-19 22:35 -0500]:
  Of course this means nothing to most apps but urlview can figure it out.
  However, it has this annoying habit of double-checking whether the URL
  it extracted should be opened or not with a rather cryptic dialogue:
  
  UrlView 0.9: (1 matches) Press Q or Ctrl-C to Quit!
  
  -1 http://www.mapnp.org/library/pay_ben/cmpnstn/cmpnstn.htm
  
  After some experimentation I learned that this required that I press the
  Enter key twice and then it would follow up by passing the resulting
  URL to the /etc/urlview/url_handler.sh
  
  This is really annoying since this prompt effectively stops me from
  using this convenient tool in a shell script which I associate with a
  file type in Rox, for example, since the program stops in a hidden
  window and waits in vain for someone to press Enter (I am guessing that
  this is what happens based on my CLI experience). In an ideal world the
  program would work so well that I would never know it existed and my web
  pages would just magically appear in my browser after I clicked on an
  URL file.

urlview shows that menu because often there's not only a single URL in
its input; this way the user can choose which of the links he wants to
open.

Do you want to see urlview simply running url_handler.sh without asking 
anything if there's only a single URL?

If this is the request, I'll retitle the bug. 'whishlist for urlview'
it's a bit too generic. :)

Thanks.
ciao,

Bug#307576: should allow wrapping

Hello Martin,

* Martin Michlmayr [EMAIL PROTECTED], [2005-05-04  1:59 +0100]:
  It would be nice if urlview would allow to wrap around lines using the
  cursor, i.e. pressing up on the first line should go to the last
  line.  I frequently have to open the last URL in a list and this

Urlview is almost dead upstream, so there's no point in forwarding your
request.
I'll try to see what I can do to implement your whishlist; in the
meanwhile, do you know that you can press the url number to 'jump' to
it?

If you've got 42 matches, you can jump to the last one simply typing
'42'.

HTH.

Bug#308813: buggy apt pinning in experimental

2005-05-17 Thread Emanuele Rocca
Hi,
this seems to be an infinite whishlist bug. :)

The version of apt in experimental is buggy for what regards pinning:
see #308445 for a description of the problem.

As a workaround, one could set experimental as the favourite
distribution without using /etc/apt/preferences, but /etc/apt/apt.conf.

The following patch solves this problem, together with the ones formerly
outlined:

Do you still find this wishlist useful?

Now that #307577 is fixed it is possible to use page up and page down to
go through the list also with only a few urls.

However, I am thinking about documenting the 'jump-at' feature.

Maybe changing the urlview sentence to something like this:

UrlView 0.9: (N matches) Press 1-N to jump to an url, Q or Ctrl-C to Quit!

Well, not very nice, but it's a start.

I consider that this change could be more useful.
What's your opinion?

Bug#338645: postgresql-contrib-8.1: dbf2pg silently ignores the -F and -T options

2005-11-11 Thread Emanuele Rocca
Package: postgresql-contrib-8.1
Severity: normal
Tags: patch

Hello,
according to contrib/dbase/Makefile, iconv support for dbf2pg is 
disabled.
If there is no specific reason to do so, it would be really nice to
uncomment the PG_CPPFLAGS += -DHAVE_ICONV_H line, so that dbf2pg can
convert charsets properly.

Moreover, the user is not informed about lack of iconv support, and that
causes a lot of problems trying to understand why there is no charset
conversion even passing -F (and -T) to the command line. :)

The attached patch prints a warning if there is no iconv support and the
user passes the -F option.

Thanks!

Bug#327127: darcs-buildpackage: should no rebuild .orig.tar.gz file if debian version is not -1

Hello John and Peter,

  True.
  
   The system should detect that when there is no .orig.tar.gz file and  it
   is creating a higher version release (ie not -1) it should bail out or
   (better) use apt-get source to get the .orig.tar.gz file.
  
  I'm not so sure about this part.  Perhaps an all-caps warning is in
  order, but for me, part of the allure of this tool is the ability to go
  back in time and build working source and binary packages.  Uploading
  them to Debian isn't always the end goal.  There is also no guarantee
  that a user's apt-get would be configured in such a way that it can
  obtain the source for the version in question.
  
  So I'm inclined to tag this one wontfix and set it to wishlist, but I'm
  interested in your thoughts on what I've said.

I agree with you, and everything works fine if one switches to
darcs-buildpackage for a new upstream release or an initial
debianization.

But is a full source upload the correct way for switching to 
darcs-buildpackage for a  1 Debian revision?

If so, why not stating it into the docs? 
Maybe even an all-caps warning at the end of the building process which
informs you that the .orig.tar.gz has been changed could be very 
helpful.

it would be very handy for us if you could attach your patch as a

Anyway, do we want to allow the choice between the old Debian logo and

  Choice is good and I guess not everybody prefers the new logo over the old

  maybe there are other logos which could be integrated in kpd.

OK, I agree that it's better to let the users decide their favourite

Hello James,

* James R. Van Zandt [EMAIL PROTECTED], [2006-10-28 16:14 -0400]:
  Actually automake is not required to build the package, so I removed
  it from the list.

I've tried rebuilding minpack 19961126-10 under pbuilder, but it fails.

If you don't need automake and autoconf in the build process, you should
not check if they're available in configure.in:

--- snip ---
AC_PATH_PROG(autoconf, autoconf, FAIL)
if test $autoconf = FAIL; then
AC_MSG_ERROR(Cannot continue: autoconf not found)
fi

AC_PATH_PROG(automake, automake, FAIL)
if test $automake = FAIL; then
AC_MSG_ERROR(Cannot continue: automake not found)
fi
--- snip ---

Removing the lines above, and running autoconf afterwards, minpack
builds correctly without the dependencies on automake and autoconf.

This seems to solve #395984 as well.

BTW, the package builds without problems even dropping the dependency on
libtool.

  Are you using 'chkrootkit'? If so, that seems to be the culprit (it uses
  netstat and netstat outputs those lines). If not, do you have lsof installed?

I'm using chkrootkit and I've got lsof installed. 

And I've just noticed the comment in check_rootkit:

Bug#377584: downgrading

2007-12-22 Thread Emanuele Rocca
Hello Mirco,

* Mirco Bauer [EMAIL PROTECTED], [2006-07-10 11:13 +0200]:
  Neither the sparc nor the s390 port of Mono are near usable yet,
  specially with the stable branch (1.1.13.x), thus downgrading to
  wishlist.

I've been able to build mono on sparc without problems from 
mono_1.2.5.1.orig.tar.gz with the classic procedure:
./configure ; make ; make install 

dpkg-buildpackage from the debian sources fails as follows:

install -o root -g root -m 644 debian/cli.binfmt \
  debian/mono-common/usr/share/binfmts/cli
install: cannot create regular file `debian/mono-common/usr/share/binfmts/cli': 
No such file or directory

Changing that command to:

install -D -o root -g root -m 644 debian/cli.binfmt \
  debian/mono-common/usr/share/binfmts/cli

allowed me to build mono successfully on sparc under pbuilder:
http://people.debian.org/~ema/mono_1.2.5.1-2_sparc.build

So, the macroscopic problem seems to be that
debian/mono-common/usr/share/binfmts/ is not created properly; obiouvsly
for other arches this is not the case.

Bug#304325: linda: Please provide a more informative long description

2005-04-12 Thread Emanuele Rocca
Package: linda
Severity: wishlist

Hello,
as the recent thread on -devel [0] pointed out, there is a bit of
confusion about linda and lintian.

IMHO it would be a good idea to provide an improved description for 
linda; I CCed -devel to hear also other opinions.

Here it is my proposal:

 Linda is a Debian package checker that runs some rudimentary checks over
 source and binary packages to see if they comply to Policy.
 .
 It is much like lintian, but it is faster and internationalized (l10n 
 strings for most errors, in German only at the moment). Linda is 
 developed in Python.
 .
 Since Linda and Lintian implement a different set of tests, you may
 find useful to run both of them on your packages.

Please be patient with my english. :)
Thanks for your time.

Idem, I obiouvsly can be wrong. :)

But I think that it should be python bindings for /the/ libstatgrab

   FK Hi, in July, Sune Vuorela sent a mail to debian-sparc requesting
   FK to try reproducing #433801 on kdm, but there were no answers. I
   FK checked the web archives and couldn't find the mail. Perhaps for
   FK some reason the mail didn't reach debian-sparc, so I'm trying
   FK again. Quoting Sune :
  
We have recieved the following bug report in the kde team.  As we
kind of are out of sparc computers we are seeking help.  You need:
a debian sparc running recent unsntable and a attached monitor.
Try to install kdm and log in.  Report back if it works or not.

  i have a similar problem, with gdm not working on sparc running
  current unstable debian. similarly with Scott, after i've upgraded a
  bunch of packages, the X server did not start any more: gdm was
  starting, but X server flashes and immediately stops, leaving only
  gdm running.

Could you guys please check if these issues are related to #432256?

I've rebuilt xorg with the patch suggested there and I can't reproduce
the bugs you reported: both kdm and gdm are woking properly on my system.

As building xorg is quite time consuming, you may want to get the
packages I've built for myself from here:

  As you said, upstream is aware of the problem so I don't think it'll be fixed
  anytime soon, you'll have to wait.
  
  I don't think there's a proper solution than fixing xfdesktop code, and this
  won't happen. If by chance you know C and can hack xfdesktop, maybe upstream
  will accept patches for this issue, but nobody knows...

I don't think so... From upstream bts (#2430):

Yup, this is known; pretty sure there was a bug filed on this in the past, or
 maybe a discussion on the mailing list.  Either way, not gonna get fixed.  Wait
 for Jannis' real fd.o menu implementation in 4.6.

Opening a bug against OO.o is not a proper fix, as Zoran said.

I guess we could just keep this bug open to document the problem and
wait for 4.6?

   This is invalid and should be dropped altogether.
  
  Thank you for your interest for building firebird2 on sparc.
  
  The above patch snipplet was modelled around the changes for
  i386/amd64 and sort of blindly applied to sparc too. This is now
  removed in the pkg-firebird svn repository.
  
  Does firebird2 packages build on sparc after this change? If yes, I'll
  be glad to initiate an upload that adds sparc to the list of supported
  architectures.

Now firebird builds correctly on sparc:
http://people.debian.org/~ema/firebird2_1.5.3.4870-12_sparc.build

What I did was just dropping the -march=ultrasparc patch and adding

Bug#414460: Unnecessary build depend on automaken

2007-03-11 Thread Emanuele Rocca
Package: ebview
Version: 0.3.6-2
Severity: important

ebview builds correctly without automake, therefore the build dependency on
automaken should be dropped (see http://wiki.debian.org/AutomakeTransition).

I'm planning to NMU ebview fixing this bug and #410444 because the
package is currently out-of-date on sparc.

Bug#412245: helix-player: FTBFS on sparc

2007-02-24 Thread Emanuele Rocca
Package: helix-player
Version: 1.0.8-2
Severity: serious
Justification: Fails to build

In #339469 the submitter reported two different problems: FTBFS on
powerpc and FTBFS on sparc.

While the upload of helix-player 1.0.7-1 fixed the former [1], the
latter is still present [2].

The attached patch fixes the problem, but the build fails some steps
later. [3]

Comments/Problems:

There's a known issue [0] installing over ssh on a 1GB hard drive in low
mem. Without a big enough swap partition the ssh daemon goes out of
memory creating the root fs, disconnecting the user.

Moreover, trying to login again to resume the installation, partman hangs
doing:
 cd /var/lib/partman/devices/=dev=mtdblock0
 open_dialog DUMP

(from /lib/partman/init.d/35dump)

BTW, besides from this issue, the installation was perfect, congrats for
the really fine job.

I've been able to complete the installation twice, the first time with a
128M swap partition, and now even with a smaller one, as suggested by
Otavio [1], just 96M.

The partman-auto reciepe for put everything in one partition creates a
swap area of around 80M, which are not enough; I'd suggest to raise the
default size, maybe only if in low-mem.

Bug#400263: installation report: low memory install (kbd-chooser and ext3 creation)

2006-11-25 Thread Emanuele Rocca
Hello Holger,

* Holger Wansing [EMAIL PROTECTED], [2006-11-24 20:52 +0100]:
  Partitions:  hda13,9 GB ext2 as /
   hda296 MB as swap   (but I tried
   several different schemes, read further)
[...]

  2. ext3 creation on low memory machines.
 There has been a bugreport on nslu2 where creating 
 1GB ext3 partitions failed (ran out of memory) when
 swap partition was to small.
 I have here a 4GB hard disc and I wasn't able to
 create a ext3 partition of this size (tried with
 different swaps, max was 128 MB). Progress bar froze
 everytime at 33%.

With the nslu2 I've been able to create an ext3 fs on a 1G partition
with 96M swap (see #399951). So there seems to be a relation between the
size of the swap partition and the maximum size of the ext3 fs you can
create.

I don't know, maybe  partman-auto could decide the size of the swap area
according to the disk size?

   - Or some note in the manual about this situation?

Yes, I think that documenting this problem would be very useful.

Even if partman-auto could do some magic to setup a swap area big enough
to avoid the problem, the user has always the option to partition the
disk manually (obiouvsly).

Trying to boot with this initrd the kernel is not able to find the
firmware for my qla2xxx, although a diff -Nur between the contents of
the following two images yields to nothing:

The one suffixed with '.bak' is a working initrd built with 0.87b.

Albeit it's not the source of this problem, notice the creation of the

Bug#432256: libxinerama1: XineramaIsActive disagrees with XineramaQueryScreens on sparc

2007-07-08 Thread Emanuele Rocca
Package: libxinerama1
Version: 1:1.0.2-1
Severity: important

Hi,
according to XineramaIsActive(3):

 XineramaIsActive()
The  XineramaActive function returns a Boolean operator used to determine 
if Xin‐
erama is activated on the screen. Returns True  for  active  and  False  
for  not
active.

(there's a typo, s/XineramaActive/XineramaIsActive/)

 [...]

 XineramaQueryScreens() returns NULL and sets number to 0 if Xinerama is
 not active.

Actually on my sparc machine XineramaIsActive() returns True, while
XineramaQueryScreens sets the number of screens to 0 and returns a NULL
pointer.

This bug makes gdm unusable, and probably other packages.

I've tried the following program on sparc and i386:

#include stdio.h
#include X11/Xlib.h
#include X11/extensions/Xinerama.h

int main() {
Display *disp = XOpenDisplay(NULL);
int n_screens;
XineramaScreenInfo *xscreens = XineramaQueryScreens (disp,
n_screens);

printf(XineramaIsActive: %d\n, XineramaIsActive(disp));
printf(Number of screens: %d\n, n_screens);

if(xscreens == NULL)
printf(XineramaQueryScreens returned a NULL pointer\n);
else
printf(XineramaQueryScreens returned something useful\n);

XFree(xscreens);

return 0;
}

The program above prints the following on my sparc machine:

XineramaIsActive: 1
Number of screens: 0
XineramaQueryScreens returned a NULL pointer

Conversely, on i386 the bug is not reproducible:

XineramaIsActive: 1
Number of screens: 1
XineramaQueryScreens returned something useful

xserver-xorg-core: 2:1.3.0.0.dfsg-7
xserver-xorg-video-ati: 1:6.6.3-2

I'm not much into X internals, but after a quick grep for Xinerama on
-video-ati and -video-sunffb it seems to me that the latter doesn't
provide useful replies to Xinerama related requests like
X_XineramaIsActive, while the former does.

Somehow libxinerama assumes that XineramaIsActive even if sunffb doesn't
handle such request?

Bug#426404: initramfs-tools: firmware related problems in hook-functions

I've tried today with -rc5 after a dist-upgrade and actually there are
some differences (see attached diff).

I can confirm that with initramfs-tools 0.87b the initrd is created
properly.

Bug#426404: initramfs-tools: firmware related problems in hook-functions

2007-06-27 Thread Emanuele Rocca
* maximilian attems [EMAIL PROTECTED], [2007-06-24 16:51 +0200]:
  hmm diff looks sane, so can you check that if you land in the initramfs
  that qla2xxx is loaded?
  cat /proc/modules

The module is loaded but it cannot find firmware images.

I think I've found the reason, though: with initramfs-tools 0.88 here's
what goes under /lib/udev:

ls /tmp/new/lib/udev/
firmware.agent

firmware.agent tries (and fails) to source /lib/udev/hotplug.functions

And the following is /lib/udev with former versions of initramfs-tools:

ls /tmp/old/lib/udev/
ata_idedd_id  hotplug.functions  path_id  usb_id
cdrom_id  firmware.agent  ide.agent  scsi_id  vol_id

Your patch works correctly here. I would also suggest to redirect the

As it is now, afbinit.init prints the firmware revision number every
time:

   They both point to the same file. Maybe the right thing to do is
   creating a new motd for the guests, rather than pointing to
   /var/run/motd?
  
  Emm yes. This is obviously a standard behaviour that must have changed since
  woody or something.
  
  But this must mean that this file will be regenerated at reboot, right?

Yes, by /etc/rcS.d/S55bootmisc.sh:

# Update motd
uname -snrvm  /var/run/motd
[ -f /etc/motd.tail ]  cat /etc/motd.tail  /var/run/motd

However, I do not believe that this makes the bug less important,
especially on machines that are not rebooted often like servers.

Try passing fbcon=map:1 (or video=atyfb:off) to the kernel.

There's a known problem with atyfb cards, upstream is working on it.

Please let us know if this workaround actually solves your problem, so
that we can merge these two bugs as well.

Bug#327850: urlview: remove back latest looping cursor (wishlist)

2005-09-12 Thread Emanuele Rocca
Hello Osvaldo,

* Osvaldo La Rosa [EMAIL PROTECTED], [2005-09-12 16:17 +0200]:
  Hi, in the latest version of urlview the cursor goes from the 1st http
  url to the last and when pressing cursor down instead of stopping it
  begins again from top, and viceversa:
  this is absolutely a big problem for blind people - totally
  blindunfriendly while the previous version doesn''t got this problem;
  a good suggestion acceptable for all shoudl be to return to the previous
  option wheer top and bottom are limited, but of course where the current
  blindunfriendly feature shoudl be proposed as option.

Sure, I'm sorry but this is something I wasn't thinking about.
I'll eventually make it a configurable option; in the meanwhile, you can
build a custom version of urlview without the wrapping patch as follows:

apt-get source urlview
cd urlview-0.9
rm debian/patches/07-wrapping.patch
dpkg-buildpackage -rfakeroot -us -uc

If you don't want to do it by yourself, you can find a 'unpatched' 
binary here:

Thanks for your contribution.

No, the reason why you see only one result is that if the same url

I cannot see the point repeating them. If you agree, I would close this

  Hmm.  The urlview I have (0.9) shows both entries.  But that is not the
  point of the defect I reported:  the first url won't work with
  url_handler.sh because it appears to be exec()'d with a trailing newline
  character on the URL parameter.  The second url does not do this.
  
  What version of urlview are you using?

I've tried to reproduce the behaviour you reported using the same
version of urlview you're using, 0.9-15. Here the url is displayed only
once and it works fine. Trying to modify the second one (in order to
have it displayed) it seems that both of them are properly passed to
url_handler.sh, and properly handled.

Did you modify something under /etc/urlview/*?
Could you please post your version of those files?

Thank you.

  I've attached a tarball with all the requested files (and more).  I'm a
  little baffled that your urlview of the same version does not show two
  different URLs from the example file.

I was able to reproduce the 'two-URLs' problem.
URLs are repeated more than once if (and only if) you supply your own
~/.urlview AND one of the URLs is followed by other text.

In the following example http://www.debian.org is reported once, even
with a ~/.urlview file:
 snip 
http://www.debian.org

Debian: http://www.debian.org

This example actually proves the 'two-urls bug':

As you can see, there is some text *after* the URL.
Removing ~/.urlview the program extracts the URL only one time.
 
This is a bug, obiouvsly, and I'll eventually investigate it.

I must say, however, that I cannot reproduce your problem, either with
your same config files and running urlview with the input you reported.
Both URLs are opened correctly.

Could you please try to remove *everything* urlview-related and try
again with 0.9-15? Maybe on a test box, or inside a sid chroot, if you
prefeer avoid breaking your setup. :)

Thanks.

Bug#322432: urlview: Some URLs are handed off to url_handler.sh with a trailing newline

2005-08-11 Thread Emanuele Rocca
severity 322432 normal
retitle 322432 please document ~/.urlview better
thanks

* Keith Hellman [EMAIL PROTECTED], [2005-08-11 12:37 -0600]:
  OK, I did this on a fresh etch install (which I just happened to have
  recently completed).  Here are the results:
  
  - was able to replicate your success if I didn't use a ~/.urlview;
things worked perfectly.

  - tried with my original ~/.urlview file (sent in the latest tarball);
REPRODUCED BOTH multiple URL entries as well as the trailing newline
defect that apparently I alone am experiencing

  - copied the /etc/urlview/system.urlview to ~/.urlview; things worked
perfectly

  - changed the COMMAND entry of the file to point to my own handler,
exactly as it does in my original .urlview; things work perfectly

  - tested this new ~/.urlview on a second machine and things worked
perfectly.
  
  My impression is that there is some munged up logic while processing a
  user's .urlview, since the your able to see at least the symptom of
  multiple URLs listed.  

Things seems to be simpler than we think.

urlview reads ~/.urlview OR /etc/urlview/system.urlview.

Try for instance to only specify REGEXP in your user-defined conffile
and you'll notice that urlview will fail to execute url_handler.sh, because
it cannot find it in the current directory.

The first .urlview you sent me was defining only COMMAND. That's why as
soon as you've copied the default system.urlview to ~/.urlview things
worked as expected.

  Thanks for all your help,

Thank you for your time, and sorry if on the first message I didn't
understand what you were saying. :)

With this mail I'm downgrading the severity and retitling the bug,
because I think that simply stating clearly that it's mandatory to
define both COMMAND and REGEXP in ~/.urlview is enough.

More precisely, the manpage already states it. You may object that it's
not clear at all. Right. :)

quoting urlview(1):
urlview attempts to read ~/.urlview upon startup.  If this file doesn’t
exist, it will try to read a system wide file in 
/etc/urlview/system.urlview

*If this file doesn't exist*, it will try to read...

Any suggestion to improve the man page is very welcome.
