Bug#340503: acknowledged by developer (Your bug report about Mailman in Debian)
reopen #340503 quiit foundation: |/var/lib/mailman/mail/wrapper post foundation Now it has to look like: foundation:|/var/lib/foundation/mail/mailman post foundation ^^ Certainly not. It has to be mailman there, we don't create a directory in /var/lib for each list. Besides, there is a symlink in /var/lib/mailman/mail from wrapper to mailman, so the old alias file entries will just work, won't it? Or am I completely confused? You're missing the point that there are a pile of new aliases created, and some of the arguments are changed too: admin and request were previously mailowner and mailcmd.The worst problem is that the return-path has changed.

Bug#341767: simple script causes sshd to run out of memory and die
Dec 1 21:37:40 mpiblaster kernel: HighMem: empty Dec 1 21:37:40 mpiblaster kernel: Swap cache: add 0, delete 0, find 0/0, race 0+0 Dec 1 21:37:40 mpiblaster kernel: Out of Memory: Killed process 19833 (sshd). While infinite recursion is certainly a error in the script, it should not cause sshd to die. Because it kills sshd, a malicious user can prevent anyone from logging in via ssh until the daemon is restarted. What is happening here is that you are running your entire system out of memory, and the kernel is then killing a process (as it will do if it runs out of system memory). This is the expected behaviour of the system.

Bug#339541: xemacs21-mule: installation fails
Hi, Is there any further information? Or, already fixed? I can't reproduce this bug. Sorry, I've been busy. 1. Are there any files in /usr/share/xemacs21/site-lisp/gnus? Do you have *.elc files there? Yes, 152 elc files. I have no idea where they came from, though. Should they not be there? 2. How about running this command? # dpkg-reconfigure gnus This produced the following: [EMAIL PROTECTED]:~# dpkg-reconfigure gnus install/gnus: Ignoring emacs. install/gnus: Ignoring emacs20. install/gnus: Byte-compiling for emacs21...found emacs21 ..done. [EMAIL PROTECTED]:~# 3. How about reinstalling gnus package? # apt-get --reinstall install gnus I did this, too, and the xemacs21 install still complains. Would you like the output again?

Bug#343029: mailman: No warning about breaking admin passwords!
Package: mailman Version: 2.1.5-8 Severity: important Hi, Another upgrade issue that's just bitten me. /usr/lib/mailman/bin/change_pw says: Prior to Mailman 2.1, list passwords were kept in crypt'd format -- usually. Some Python installations didn't have the crypt module available, so they'd fall back to md5. Then suddenly the Python installation might grow a crypt module and all list passwords would be broken. In Mailman 2.1, all list and site passwords are stored in SHA1 hexdigest form. This breaks list passwords for all existing pre-Mailman 2.1 lists, and since those passwords aren't stored anywhere in plain text, they cannot be retrieved and updated. That's all very well and good, but this means that everyone upgrading from oldstable to stable will have had all their passwords broken. Without any warning during the upgrade. This time there's nothing in README.Debian either. There really should be warning of this (well, actually, I think breaking the passwords like that is pretty poor, but nonetheless, not warning the admin you're doing so is bad).

Bug#338474: I don't think this is really a bug.
All of these books have one thing in common: there are multiple books that carry the same name. With the exception of John, because of the More specifically, they share the feature that you're missing the 1 off the beginning. If you wanted 1 Timothy, you'd ask for it, so obviously you don't, in the mind of the parser. Does that make sense? I am undecided as to whether this is a behaviour that should be modified. Certainly, making the parser think Timothy-1 Timothy (for example), would be a non-trivial amount of work. Also, personally I think of the books including their number. YMMV...

Bug#382978: bible-kjv-text: Please remove dependancy on bible-kjv or change to suggest.
Hi, bible-kjv and bible-kjv-text depend on each other. If there really is such adependancy they should be made into one package. I think that They're separate packages because the text is architecture- independent; that's a saving on mirror space. bible-kjv-text doesn't depend on bible-kjv though. The data is fine without bible-kjv, it just sits there. The data isn't much use without a reader and bible-kjv is a reader, but it's not the only possible one. Actually, it's the only package that can read the compressed text- file format. At the moment, neither package is any use without the other.

As discussed on IRC, chiark-repomove doesn't work with seds that
require a trailing newline (e.g. solaris sed). The fix is:

Bug#464267: bible-kjv: FTBFS: sort: open failed: +1nr: No such file or directory
Hi, Thanks for the bug report. sort: open failed: +1nr: No such file or directory The problem is that new coreutils' sort has finally deprecated the sort +number syntax. On older systems, `sort' supports an obsolete origin-zero syntax `+POS1 [-POS2]' for specifying sort keys. POSIX 1003.1-2001 (*note Standards conformance::) does not allow this; use `-k' instead. -k fields are numbered starting with 1 So, I think, the answer is to replace sort +1nr with sort -nrk 2 on line 71 of makeconc.pl Matthew -- Matthew Vernon MA VetMB LGSM MRCVS Farm Animal Epidemiology and Informatics Unit Department of Veterinary Medicine, University of Cambridge http://www.cus.cam.ac.uk/~mcv21/ -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of unsubscribe.

This is what happens with the conffiles, but not with the non-conffiles. You appear to misunderstand dpkg's operation.

Can I suggest you at least document this fact? Which way are you thinking of? It's sort of documented in the BTS now. Well, the manual page would seem to be a good start, or the README.Debian, or somesuch? Particularly, once this bug is archived, it won't be at all obvious to people, and whilst it may be an inevitable feature of the interaction between tleds, the keyboard and xscreensaver[1], it's a slightly obscure one which it would seem to me sensible to document.

Bug#410563: python2.3-pyrex: Produces invalid C code (!)
Package: python2.3-pyrex
Version: 0.9.3-1
Severity: normal
Hi,
Pyrex produces C code that is illegal. Specifically, it uses a whole
slew of reserved identifiers - all identifiers beginning __ are
reserved (C99 section 7.1.3, IIRC), so to use them as pyrex does is
undefined behaviour.
Using the example from the pyrex website:
def primes(int kmax):
cdef int n, k, i
cdef int p[1000]
result = []
if kmax 1000:
kmax = 1000
k = 0
n = 2
while k kmax:
i = 0
while i k and n % p[i] 0:
i = i + 1
if i == k:
p[k] = n
k = k + 1
result.append(n)
n = n + 1
return result
Gives the following .c:

Bug#411524: python2.3: pydoc -w doesn't produce proper HTML
Package: python2.3 Version: 2.3.5-3sarge2 Severity: normal Hi, If you feed the output of pydoc -w [some module] to the w3 validator, it complains about two issues: firstly, the doctype is wrong. It should be: !DOCTYPE html PUBLIC -//W3C//DTD HTML 4.0 Transitional//EN not !doctype... [note case] Secondly, no charset is specified. Just doing meta http-equiv=Content-Type content=text/html;charset=utf-8 in the head would probably do.

Hi, This is the reply from the author, so I'm closing this bug. snip Might it at least be worth documenting this somewhat bizarre behaviour? users might reasonably be running a shell script with set -e or similar, and be suprised if they make an error and the script doesn't exit. In general, I'm not sure this sort of behaviour is actually helpful, but I can see that upstream isn't going to buy that.

Bug#315580: installation-reports: Dell Precision 370 unusable
Package: installation-reports Debian-installer-version: 16/06/05 (I think) Date: 23/06/05 17:00:00 BST Method: CDROM (attempted netboot) Machine: Dell Precision 370 Processor: Intel P4 Memory: 512MB, I think. The initial boot works fine. There are then two different problems: booting 2.4, the SCSI controller can't be detected: modprobe'ing the aic79xx module reports: aic79xx: no such device. Since the hard disk is a SCSI disk, this is a show-stopper. Maybe the vendor has changed the PCI id, or some such irritating thing. So, I try boot linux26. This can't find the ide CDROM the sytem booted off. Looking through logs, it seems that libata starts up, and then hogs the interrupt 0x1f0-0x1f7 so that the ide probing fails: ide0: I/O resource 0x1f0-0x1f7 not free ide0: ports already in use, skipping probe /proc/ioports shows its libata using that I/O resource. I can't find a way to stop the isntaller using libata. I then tried expert26 mode Turning off the ata_piix module in the Detect and Mount CD-ROM step seems to be a solution. Now the installer will apparantly load the aic79xx module, but doesn't detect any of the attached disks. /proc/scsi/scsi doesn't list any attached devices. I can't get add-single-device to work any magic either, even having modprobed in sd_mod and sg So, I must admit defeat. Any hints on how I can get something working on this machine gratefully accepted :/ Matthew -- Matthew Vernon MA VetMB LGSM MRCVS Farm Animal Epidemiology and Informatics Unit Department of Veterinary Medicine, University of Cambridge http://www.cus.cam.ac.uk/~mcv21/ -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of unsubscribe.

Hello, What is the status of this bug? I just stumbled over it and was about to report it, when I saw, that it has allready been reported nearly 1 2/3 years ago. IMHO this find doesn't makes any sense, and I wonder why after your fist comment nothing happend. Can't you just remove this find or mark this bug wontfix if you don't agree? You'll notice that I replied to the original submitter. I was expecting there to be further discussion, but there wasn't. In particular, this behaviour was introduced in response to a previous bug report, where debroster had failed to notice eterm being installed in a non-standard place. I wasn't convinced that reverting to the either eterm is somewhere sensible, or we don't bother looking for behaviour was the best course of action. Perhaps you could convince me?

Bug#351823: valgrind: Valgrind deals badly with redirected std{in, out}, especially as regards gdb invocation
Package: valgrind Version: 1:2.4.0-2 Severity: important Hi, valgrind's --db-attach=yes option ought to behave sensibly when debugging programs with redirected stdin/stdout. valgrind --db-attach=yes foo input-file will get to the first error and then exit(0)! This is Far From Ideal (TM). It's particularly bad because programs that take input on stdin and output onto stdout are a standard UNIX idiom, so not being able to debug them sensibly using valgrind/gdb is a serious problem. Suggesting authors of code re-write chunks of code just to be able to debug them is not plausible. Valgrind should supply a gdb helper script that replugs fds and /dev/tty to set things up in the obviously sensible manner, and that should be the default debugger command. I don't believe this would be overly difficult to do.

Bug#274528:
I think the right thing here is to move the default configuration location out of /etc/bind; probably we should make /etc/chiark- scripts/ and stick it in there. That will involved postinst checking for an extant configuration file and putting a symlink in place if it finds one; if not, then it can leave an empty file in the new location. While we're at it, it's not clear that /etc/bind is the best default directory, either. [an alternative would be to make it just emit a warning on not finding the config file, but given we're going to have to do some work migrating to a new configuration file location anyway, I don't believe that to be a win] Clearly the man-page will need modifying too.

Bug#384052: gcc-3.3: gcc should (optionally) warn about use of reserved identifiers
Package: gcc-3.3 Version: 1:3.3.5-13 Severity: normal Hi, There are a fair range of reserved identifiers in C; it is a not uncommon programming mistake for a coder to use one. It would be good if gcc told you when you did this; it would need to avoid doing so for system headers, but that's a general problem that gcc has already solved. http://web.archive.org/web/20050321091104/oakroadsystems.com/tech/c-predef.htm has a list of them, as does the C standard, but not collected together quite so conveniently.

Bug#503204: gcc-4.1: erroneously emits warning on C99-required #pragma STDC FENV_ACCESS
Package: gcc-4.1
Version: 4.1.1-21
Severity: important
Hi,
C99 requires that code that tests floating-point state flags (or frobs
other bits of the floating-point environment) calls #pragma STDC
FENV_ACCESS ON:
If part of an application tests floating-point status flags, sets
floating-point control modes, or runs under non-default mode settings,
but was translated with the state for the FENV_ACCESS pragma off, the
behavior is undefined. (7.6.1.2)
Yet, if you do this in gcc with -Wall turned on, you get a warning
message:
[EMAIL PROTECTED]:/tmp$ cat test.c
#include stdio.h
#include fenv.h
int main(void)
{
#pragma STDC FENV_ACCESS ON
if(feclearexcept(FE_ALL_EXCEPT))
printf(feclearexcept failed\n);
else printf(feclearexcept succeeded\n);
return 0;
}
[EMAIL PROTECTED]:/tmp$ gcc -std=gnu99 -Wall test.c -lm
test.c: In function ‘main’:
test.c:6: warning: ignoring #pragma STDC FENV_ACCESS
[EMAIL PROTECTED]:/tmp$ ./a.out
feclearexcept succeeded
[EMAIL PROTECTED]:/tmp$
It's obviously buggy to emit a warning on standards-mandated behaviour!
I know you can turn this warning off with -Wno-unknown-pragmas, but
that's not something you want to be doing in production code.
Regards,
Matthew

Hi, Bastian Blank wrote: It's obviously buggy to emit a warning on standards-mandated behaviour! I know you can turn this warning off with -Wno-unknown-pragmas, but that's not something you want to be doing in production code. Please show the part of the standard. A compiler may produce warnings without reason. Was the section I quoted in my original bug report not sufficient? Paragraph 7.6.1.2 of C99 says [again]: If part of a program tests floating-point status flags, sets floating-point control modes, or runs under non-default mode settings, but was translated with the state for the FENV_ACCESS pragma off, *the behaviour is undefined*. [emphasis mine] These are things that many correct programs will want to do. For example, SuSv3 has this to say about pow(): An application wishing to check for error situations should set errno to zero and call feclearexcept(FE_ALL_EXCEPT) before calling these functions. On return, if errno is non-zero or fetestexcept(FE_INVALID | FE_DIVBYZERO | FE_OVERFLOW | FE_UNDERFLOW) is non-zero, an error has occurred.[1] Gcc as-is, will encourage (quite strongly, since may people will compile with -Wall, +/- -Werror) users to write code that calls feclearexcept() and suchlike without using #pragma STDC FENV_ACCESS ON first. This is undefined behaviour, according to C99! It seems clear to me that this is a bug in gcc.

Hi, | A quick look at packages.debian.org suggests glibc and ghc (the haskell | compiler) ... if that is all then the empiricist in me considers the case closed! touche ;) Profiling libraries of everything would be overkill, but gsl seems as good a target as libc, IMAO. | An alternative, would be to have a DEB_BUILD_OPTION that did as I | suggested (resulting in a single package containing the | profiling-enabled .a files, with filenames such that you could install | them into /usr/lib without over-writing anything).

If not, it will always see the entry and will want a package. I'm not immediately sure; avoiding this sort of thing is another reason to just make a -prof package and ship it ;-) Also if it doesn't overwrite, you need to mod all your local Makefiles to pick up the different version. Makes no sense to me. Only in as much as changing -lgsl to -lgsl_p (which you need to do for many uses of the libc-prof package - e.g. -lc_p -lm_p) I don't see this being easy. Now, if you feel volunteering your time and preparing a tested patch ... Otherwise, I am afraid, it is so backburner that I'd rather be honest with you and close it (as a non-believer in nice to have but will never be done before cows come home wishlist bugs). My tuit-supply is small, but I might scratch an itch in due course; would you accept a builds another package version, or only a optionally builds just the -prof package patch? NB I am not promising anything! The only compromise I can think of is to have a 'debug _and_ profile' static build, but I guess you want 'no debug and profile' ?

I still I always prefer something minimally invasive.
Right, I've sorted this. The attached patch (which includes an
explanatory README.Debian) means you can do:
DEB_BUILD_OPTIONS=buildprof dpkg-buildpackage -b -rfakeroot -us -uc
and get a libgsl0-prof .deb which you can install.
The normal build does not produce a -prof package. The only thing I've
not done is provide a changelog entry ;-)

+ Profiling GSL
+
+Sometimes when writing complex code, you may want to profile it using
+gprof. In this case, having libraries with profiling information
+compiled in is invaluable. It is possible to build your own .deb
+containing profiling libraries, that may be installed on your system
+in parallel to the usual libraries. To do this, follow these simple
+instructions:
+
+i) download the gsl source (and the build dependancies if necessary):
+apt-get source libgsl0
+apt-get build-dep libgsl0
+ii) build a binary profiling package:
+DEB_BUILD_OPTIONS=buildprof dpkg-buildpackage -b -rfakeroot -us -uc
+iii) install the resulting .deb
+dpkg -i ../libgsl0-prof_[version]_[arch].deb
+
+Finally, you need to specify -lgsl_p and -lgslcblas_p to link your
+program against the profiling libraries.

+ Profiling GSL
+
+Sometimes when writing complex code, you may want to profile it using
+gprof. In this case, having libraries with profiling information
+compiled in is invaluable. It is possible to build your own .deb
+containing profiling libraries, that may be installed on your system
+in parallel to the usual libraries. To do this, follow these simple
+instructions:
+
+i) download the gsl source (and the build dependancies if necessary):
+apt-get source libgsl0
+apt-get build-dep libgsl0
+ii) build a binary profiling package:
+DEB_BUILD_OPTIONS=buildprof dpkg-buildpackage -b -rfakeroot -us -uc
+iii) install the resulting .deb
+dpkg -i ../libgsl0-prof_[version]_[arch].deb
+
+Finally, you need to specify -lgsl_p and -lgslcblas_p to link your
+program against the profiling libraries.

Could you possibly try it at current sources, ie gsl_1.11+dfsg-1 ?
Done. It's mostly the same as before.

Bug#529793: mtr: only works for hosts on local network
Package: mtr Version: 0.73-1 Severity: important Hi, mtr doesn't seem to work for hosts that are on different networks. The failure mode is that I type in an IP address (or hostname) [or specify same on command-line], and then it just sits there - nothing appears in the trace bit of the window at all. It works fine with localhost, and seems to at least work with reasonably nearby network hosts (my machine is in bio.warwick.ac.uk, and it works to www.warwick.ac.uk, for example, but not www.cam.ac.uk). Putting in an IP address rather than a hostname doesn't change this behaviour.

Bug#581431: inn2: nntpsend manual incorrect on -D and -d options

The ``-D'' flag does the same and it passes ``-d'' to all innxmit invocations, which in turn causes innxmit to go into debug mode. The code, however, does the following: ## -d debug mode, run innxmits with debug as well ## -D same as -d except innxmits are not debugged ...

Bug#581558: inn2: nntpsend should use a per-site lock
Package: inn2 Version: 2.4.5-5 Severity: normal Hi, It's not unusual to want to run multiple nntpsends out of cron (to feed different sites at different frequencies, for example). However, nntpsend uses one global lock file, and silent exits if unable to get that lock. I suggest it instead uses a per-site lock (particularly if a site is specified on the command-line). Emitting an error if unable to get the lock would be better than silently failing, too. Thanks, Matthew -- At least you know where you are with Microsoft. True.

Bug#579219: icedove: viewing all a messages headers is impossible due to display bug
Package: icedove Version: 2.0.0.24-0lenny1 Severity: important Hi, If you select View-Headers-All, icedove attempts to expand the grey headers bit of the message display such that the full headers can be displayed in it without scrolling. In the event that there are too many headers for this to fit in the window available, then the headers will over-flow over the rest of the window. Further, if there are any long header lines, they get truncated. [if this isn't clear I could send a screenshot, but I'm sure you can reproduce it with a message with more than about 35 header lines] When viewing all headers, if there are lots of headers and/or some header lines are long, the headers display should get scrollbars rather than just filling the entire window.

Bug#527953: angband-doc: doc-base control files misnamed
Package: angband-doc
Version: 3.0.3.4
Severity: normal
Hi,
when upgrading to lenny, angband-doc's postinst fails:
Setting up angband-doc (3.0.3.4) ...
/usr/share/doc-base/angband-doc-faq1: cannot open control file for reading: No
such file or directory
dpkg: error processing angband-doc (--configure):
subprocess post-installation script returned error exit status 2
This is right the bottom of the postinst:
# Install doc base documentation
if which install-docs /dev/null 21; then
if [ -e /usr/share/doc-base/${package_name} ]; then
install-docs -i /usr/share/doc-base/${package_name}
install-docs -i /usr/share/doc-base/${package_name}-faq1
install-docs -i /usr/share/doc-base/${package_name}-faq2
fi
fi
But in fact, angband ships slightly-differently-named files:
matt...@ming:~$ dpkg -L angband-doc | grep doc-base
/usr/share/doc-base
/usr/share/doc-base/angband-doc_faq1
/usr/share/doc-base/angband-doc
/usr/share/doc-base/angband-doc_faq2
note _ not -.
I whacked in symlinks, and the postinst ran OK.
Regards,
Matthew

Hi, Further experimentation shows that if I load /usr/share/emacs21/site-lisp/vm/vm.el by hand then M-x vm works. I still can't figure out why emacs21 can't do this by itself, but most other lisp seems to be working, so I think it's a problem with the vm packaging...

Bug#528493: texlive-base: apalike.sty missing
Package: texlive-base
Version: 2007.dfsg.1-5
Severity: important
Hi,
apalike.sty is missing from the distribution. It is necessary to go with
apalike.bst, one of the standard BibTeX style files.
! LaTeX Error: File `apalike.sty' not found.
[\usepackage{apalike} will generate this error, obviously; I assume you
don't need any more information than this. If you really want an example
file I can produce one, but it seem unnecessary in this case]
etch has this file (and etch's version seems to work OK).
Regards,
Matthew

Bug#259362: More information on random emacs21 hangs under X
Package: emacs21
Version: 21.4a+1-5.6
Followup-For: Bug #259362
Hi,
I've been seeing this problem too, after upgrading to lenny. I use fvwm
and the nv driver (the free version). stracing the affected process
shows:
--- SIGALRM (Alarm clock) @ 0 (0) ---
setitimer(ITIMER_REAL, {it_interval={0, 0}, it_value={0, 1000}}, NULL) =
0
rt_sigreturn(0) = -1 EINTR (Interrupted system
call)
futex(0x2b0e218e19e0, FUTEX_WAIT, 2, NULL) = -1 EINTR (Interrupted
system call)
(so similar to other reports).
HTH,
Matthew
