Thanks for the effort, but:

Duplicate #2002 and there's already pull request for it #2160.

Looks like cherry-pikcing that patch and thinking about the default setting.

Bug#944038: gpsd missing sysvinit script and breaks functionality on upgrade

2019-11-03 Thread Joerg Dorchain
Package: gpsd
Version: 3.19-2
Severity: Serious
Justification: Breaks silently functionality on upgrade

Hello,

after upgrading to version 3.19-2, I saw two effects (admittingly
after a while, but that makes it worse):

- the gpsd was not running anymore
- the init script is gone

In my setup, gpsd is required to start at system boot with a sysv
init.

The upgrading process stops the running gpsd, and without the
init script, it is not restarted, resulting in a system without
gps information.

Please bring the init script back.

Bye,

Joerg

Package: ifupdown2

Hello,

with this package and this version, my system comes up without any
networking configured, giving an error message at startup

My system is running on sysvinit.

An acceptable proposal would be to log to stderr until /dev/log has been setup

The init script used looks as follows:

Well, I could give it a try.

However, I received ~5 faxes last year and sent 1, so I am not
the most active fax user ever. Besides, with more bandwidth and
less jitter, faxes even work with plain iaxmodem[0]

Nevertheless, when there is a newer opal version in debian and
t38modem then has a nother FTBS-bugs, I can proabably package the
version from github.

Done. Patch attached.

I am not sure if this is really the proper way, but works for
me(tm).

BTW, the non-package build works fine without this, it must be
triggered by some debian-specific hardening flags.

Bug#784682: Make wishlist

2016-06-06 Thread Joerg Dorchain
reopen 784682
retitle 784682 "Please backport new version to jessie"
severity wishlist
thanks

Hello Zed,

reopening this bug as a hint for people like me who ran into problems
with the version of snoopy currently in stable.

The dangling file descriptor that is fixed in the mentioned upstream bug
report also affects co-existence with other packages, for me notably
puppet. The package recompiles without change on jessie, so backport is
rather trivial, just needs an upload to the backport queue. A recent
version of snoopy might also fix other bugs.

TIA for considering.

tags 711486 + patch
thanks

Hello,

replacing import_request_variables with extract is relatively
easy, e.g.

-import_request_variables('GPC', 'i_');
+extract($_GET, EXTR_PREFIX_ALL, 'i');
+extract($_POST, EXTR_PREFIX_ALL, 'i');
+extract($_COOKIE, EXTR_PREFIX_ALL, 'i');

as already written by the original poster.

Please note that this feature was removed from php for security
reasons (turning potentially unverified user input into code).


Also, please find a way to get the working parts a freeradius into
testing again. I would appreciate.

Package: dovecot-core

Hello,

the new version 1:2.1.7-6 lacks support for tcpwrappers. Despite
the mention in the NEWS file, it does not contain a
/usr/lib/dovecot/tcpwrap and is obviously not compiled with
tcpwrap support:
dovecot --build-options

SQL driver plugins: mysql postgresql sqlite

This breaks existing installations, as it even fails to install.

Thanks for fixing it.

 If upstream don't intend to release then I would argue the viability of the

I had the same problem with checkinstall. After a running checkinstall
