Stop flogging the dead horse. Really. 2. adding debconf is big no-no, doubly so if you're trying to get this an update in stable 3. not starting the service also means the service won't be restarted if it's running upon upgrade, which turns security updates into no-ops The best way to handle this is to have mt-daapd reply with an error code/page as long as the admin password is still the default and the request is not coming from localhost (localhost is special-cased and bypasses the admin password entirely).

My recollection of the events is that the GNOME maintainers asked for the new libimobiledevice in experimental because they needed it, but at the same time the API/ABI isn't final yet. It's still expected to evolve and cleanups should happen at some point too. So it went to experimental both because it was needed there and because it belonged there. Julien will set the record straight if I'm wrong and can update us on the exact upstream status. Depending on that, even staging a transition in experimental doesn't make sense at this point.

Raphael Hertzog hert...@debian.org wrote: I NACKed that because the package would be ridiculously small and this is/has been a cause of REJECT. Well with multiarch shortly ahead of us it's more and more important for lib* packages to have only the library files and not any sort of support file. The multiarch requirements aren't relevant here, as the file is installed in /etc and is identical regardless of the architecture the package is built for. So the overlap will be handled by dpkg. That is, if the wiki page is accurate. So there will be other similar cases and I doubt the ftpmasters will reject them. Their concerns should not forbid us to do the right thing in terms of library packaging. Can you get a statement from them on that? Thanks. Well, we can't bin-nmu in experimental so it means fake source upload in experimental with increased build-dep just to be able to provide updated binaries of all packages using libimobiledevice1... Those uploads will be needed anyway, as I think libimobiledevice2 is/will not be API-compatible with libimobiledevice1. So, could be a moot point. Finally, there's also the option of dropping the FDI file entirely, given we plan to get rid of HAL sooner rather than later. I'm not sure about the status of non-Linux architectures wrt libimobiledevice, so the lack of HAL support there may be a moot point. Several of the reverse build-dependencies of libimobiledevice-dev use it with an architecture restriction [linux-any] but not all of them. I don't know how important that FDI file is in the grand scheme of the library. That's a question for Julien (the other one - why yes, we're everywhere).

Bug#607368: Please decide how kernel ABI should be managed
Don Armstrong d...@debian.org wrote: Hi, Ok. My main concern here is what exactly would happen if we were to ignore the ABI change for this particular issue, and then put in place some kind of a process where the kernel team could be informed of downstream users of the ABI. The harm is done now, reverting or bumping the ABI at this point only makes things worse. Full deployment involves over a thousand workstations. But presumably they're not running a testing version affected by this. At this time I have no assurance that this issue or a similar issue with another symbol won't happen again during the Squeeze lifetime, so they are potentially affected until proven otherwise as far as I'm concerned. To the thousand machines given above, you can add several hundred machines part of several HPC clusters; the nodes use external InfiniBand drivers from ofa-kernel 1.5.2 in the pkg-ofed repository. Having the cluster fail to come online after a kernel upgrade would be interesting. We also have servers using the Brocade FC HBA/CNA drivers from Brocade, due to the 2.6.32 drivers being way out of date (2.6.32-2.6.37 is ca. 100 commits and needs new firmware files with new names, if anyone is interested). package is upgraded, we'd still have issues with on-disk modules not matching the running kernel ABI until the machine is rebooted. This can sometimes take two or three weeks if a long-running computation is running on the machine. Presumably this wouldn't be much of an issue, unless users are going to be newly loading these modules. [Which I would hope wouldn't be the case if you were running a long-running computation.] Modules get loaded automatically pretty much all the time on a workstation: filesystem modules for a USB key or when upgrading grub, drivers for USB devices, you name it. And I'll ask again: what's the point of the kernel ABI number if we have to use strict dependencies? Some modules may need strict dependencies if they are using symbols not covered by the ABI; this is one possible way that we can resolve this issue. The issue I have with that, other than the fact that it is just plain wrong, is that all the module packaging tools were built on the premise that changes to the kernel ABI are reflected by the ABI number. None of the tools work if that premise doesn't hold true.

Could it be I have 30 beta-testers that are affected by this issue on the workstations they have started using for their everyday work. Although it's still a beta phase, at this point, these workstations are to be considered in production given the users have basically made the switch now. Full deployment involves over a thousand workstations. worked around by using DKMS or similar with prebuilt binaries and requiring exact kernel version dependencies? DKMS is useless if the ABI number doesn't change, in its current form. If DKMS was changed to rebuild all modules when the kernel package is upgraded, we'd still have issues with on-disk modules not matching the running kernel ABI until the machine is rebooted. This can sometimes take two or three weeks if a long-running computation is running on the machine. We switched to DKMS to reduce the maintenance cost associated with prebuilt binaries. We'd rather not come back to that if we can help it. It also adds a delay to kernel updates that we'd rather avoid. As to using strict dependencies... it makes all of the above even worse.

Bug#607368: Please decide how kernel ABI should be managed
reopen 607368 tags 607368 - wontfix reassign 607368 tech-ctte retitle 607368 Please decide how kernel ABI should be managed thanks Hi, I am hereby asking the tech-ctte to decide how the kernel ABI should be managed. Case in point: the kernel team decided to ignore changes to the smp_ops symbol in 2.6.32-28 which broke external modules (vmware) without any prior warning. I am worried that this is going to happen again during the lifetime of Squeeze, silently breaking working setups upon reboot after a kernel update, even though the new kernel carries the same ABI number as the previous one. I do agree that it is fine to ignore changes to symbols that are only exported and used inside a self-contained group of modules to which no additional modules will ever need to be added. I disagree with the kernel team's take that it is OK for them to ignore symbol changes in all other cases, especially for symbols exported by the core kernel (like smp_ops). This kind of silent breakage is a nightmare from an ops standpoint and it does have a cost for our users. The ABI number should guarantee that upgrading from a revision of linux-image to another carrying the same ABI number will not cause any breakage with external modules built for this ABI. As the kernel team made it clear that they make their decision partly based on symbol usage, I'd like to highlight once again, for the specific case of smp_ops, that VMware modules aren't exactly pet modules that only a few of our users care about. There is ample proof of this on several web forums and mailing-lists dedicated to either VMware or Debian. I am seeking a generic ruling by the tech-ctte to ensure that the kernel ABI number remains meaningful and dependable. I think it would be best if this matter would be decided upon before the release of Squeeze, or not too long after it, so as to avoid further breakages in early kernel updates for Squeeze.

Bug#607368: Kernel ABI management
reopen 607368 submitter 607368 ! thanks Hi, I am sorry that I have to reopen this bug, but first this is about more than just smp_ops and second the outcome isn't satisfactory. Whether a symbol is exported for a specific purpose or for general usage, whether you like it or not, every symbol that is exported is part of the ABI. If it changes, the ABI changes and it changes for everybody, regardless of whether they're supposed to be using that symbol or not. We would not accept that behaviour from a shared library, I don't see any reason why we would accept it from the kernel. As it stands, the kernel ABI number has just been rendered useless; I can no longer trust it nor rely on it. Every kernel revision will have to be tested to make sure all modules are still compatible with the new ABI, given the ABI will change silently without bumping the ABI number. Unsuspecting users will have their setup break upon reboot after updating their kernel packages without any obvious clue as to what caused the breakage. This is a big deal as it puts a big question mark where the kernel ABI number used to be. This is a problem for users, admins, ISV, vendors higher up the chain, everybody. It's no longer possible to offer certified modules for Debian kernels given the kernel ABI number cannot be relied upon anymore. Out of tree modules exist and you can't just ignore them; in some environments they are necessary to make things work and you won't have a way around that. So I am asking you to reconsider your position and go back to strictly maintaining the kernel ABI number. This situation is a big step backward for the Debian kernel packages and I hope it'll be fixed soon.

Ben Hutchings b...@decadent.org.uk wrote: Hi, Some distributions provide a list all exported symbols which can be depended on not to change. We haven't done that but we do consider What you're saying here is very important: you haven't done that yet, which implies that all symbols are covered by the ABI. This is reinforced by reading the packaging scripts and realizing they check the whole ABI, prior to -28. where symbols are used before deciding a change can be ignored. I can perfectly imagine that you weren't aware of VMware's reliance upon this symbol before, but you are now. No need to tell you that quite a few of our users out there will use VMware on Squeeze and be impacted by this change. (As an example, there are several sets of drivers for related hardware in which one core module exports symbols to the specific driver modules. Those exports should in no way be depended on by OOT modules.) As smp_ops is exported by the core kernel and not by the common core of a self-contained set of drivers, I don't think this argument holds here. Reviewing the kernel revision history, smp_ops was indeed exported to allow building KVM as a module. The commit message certainly doesn't claim that KVM should be the sole user of this exported symbol. I fail to see a reason why VMware or anybody else should refrain from using smp_ops if they need it. We would not accept that behaviour from a shared library, I don't see any reason why we would accept it from the kernel. This is not true; for example, the interface between libc and NSS is not stable. And it's been widely recognized as a design flaw and a royal pain in the ass for, like, forever. Not exactly an example you want to follow. If someone claims to certify something about future Debian kernels without talking to the kernel team, they are a fraud. See the top of this mail where you state that no list of symbols covered by the ABI was ever published for Debian kernels. It isn't unreasonable under these circumstances to assume that all symbols are covered. Out of tree modules exist and you can't just ignore them; in some environments they are necessary to make things work and you won't have a way around that. Example?

Ben Hutchings b...@decadent.org.uk wrote: Hi Ben, This is reinforced by reading the packaging scripts and realizing they check the whole ABI, prior to -28. This is not correct. We have ignored many changes since 2.6.32-12 when the ABI number was bumped to 5. In 2.6.32-27 the symbol version files were refreshed and the ignore list was reset. This is even more troubling. The upstream policy is that symbol exports may be removed when there are no in-tree users. So that export could even be made conditional on CONFIG_KVM_MODULE (or whatever it's called). Upstream policy doesn't break your setup from one kernel package revision to the other. Maybe I should find a way to limit that export so OOT users won't make this mistake. Good luck with that, it's been tried already with EXPORT_SYMBOL_GPL() and people still do work around that. See the top of this mail where you state that no list of symbols covered by the ABI was ever published for Debian kernels. It isn't unreasonable under these circumstances to assume that all symbols are covered. It is extremely stupid. We obviously disagree. VMware, nVidia, various drivers and infrastructure for communications hardware (been there, done that), ... VMware - use KVM. Not possible. We require 3D pass-through that KVM doesn't offer. Windows virtio drivers failed us on Vista/Seven (can't remember, not my area), plain old IDE emulation is too slow to be usable. Also, issues with moving a VM from one host to another from a Windows licensing standpoint (still researching this one, though). It's not that using KVM wouldn't ease our (and our user's) life considerably, it's that we *cannot* use it, and there are real reasons why we cannot (and I'm not even speaking of getting that solution approved internally, it's really a detail given the above). As you can see on my blog, I'm the one responsible for packaging VMware. My life would be better if we could just use KVM, believe me. Packaging VMware 7 was a nightmare. nvidia - use nouveau, report a bug if it doesn't work. Doesn't work with our cards, not by a long shot. Probably won't work for another decade or so, so not an option. We do need working and fast 3D. Switching to AMD - oh yeah, we tried that. I have a drawer full of test cards. Not a single one has working 3D with free drivers, and here again it won't happen for another year or two *best case*. Not an option. Once again: not that we wouldn't like to use free drivers, but we just can't. And I'm the one backporting and testing the nVidia drivers, so believe me when I tell you I'd be using Nouveau if it was an option. We are limited by our user's requirements on the one hand and by what hardware vendors can sell us on the other hand - and they can't sell us yesteryear's tech forever, especially on high-end mobile workstations. Anybody doing this type of large-scale deployment faces the same issues. random drivers - send them to the maintainer of crap (Greg K-H, for the staging tree). :-) That being said, not every out of tree driver comes with source. Although pure crap has made it to staging in the past, I'm pretty sure multi-megabyte binary blobs don't stand a chance. I'm pretty disappointed by the way you're handling this; it feels like you have little care for what your users actually need. I find it a bit sad, given all the very good work you've been doing with the kernel otherwise. As I wrote already, it's not like VMware is some obscure piece of software that nobody knows about.

Bug#595648: libkqueue0: typo in EV_RECEIPT implementation returns random errors
Package: libkqueue0
Version: 0.9.2-1
Severity: serious

Hi,
A typo in the code copying kevents from the changelist to the eventlist
in kevent_copyin() leads to events with EV_RECEIPT having a non-zero data
field.
This breaks libdispatch in interesting ways under the right circumstances,
effectively putting a halt to event processing.
Patch attached, replace errno with status when setting the data field.
Thanks,
JB.

Bug#587306: antlr3: FTBFS everywhere; packaging issues
Source: antlr3 Version: 3.2-1 Severity: serious Hi, antlr3 3.2-1 failed to build everywhere, as it's trying to build the antlr3 binary package which is arch: all (as evidenced by the calls to various helper scripts with -pantlr3 as argument). Also, the only arch: any package produced by the antlr3 source package is empty on amd64 (the arch that got uploaded). Either antlr3-gcj should be removed and it's just a matter of adjusting debian/control, or this warrants a bug of its own. Looking at the source package, it looks like the former, as there's little about antlr3-gcj in there.

Bug#570580: [PATCH] Fixes for libplist
Package: libplist
Severity: normal
Tags: patch
Hi,
I've spent some time debugging a number of portability issues in libplist;
the attached patch should fix libplist on most architectures. There remains
a couple of unaligned accesses that I haven't been able to track down, due
to prctl --unaligned=signal not working on albeniz (kernel still handling the
unaligned trap instead of sending a SIGBUS).
Patch tested on amd64, alpha, hppa.
Please prepare an upload with this patch added and hopefully we'll have some
good news this week-end :)
Thanks,
JB.
-- System Information:
Debian Release: squeeze/sid
APT prefers unstable
APT policy: (500, 'unstable')
Architecture: amd64 (x86_64)
Kernel: Linux 2.6.32.2 (SMP w/2 CPU cores)
Locale: LANG=C, lc_ctype=fr...@euro (charmap=ISO-8859-15)
Shell: /bin/sh linked to /bin/bash
Endianness, alignment and type-punning fixes for binary plist support
- endianness issues: on big endian machines, writing out only part
of an integer was broken (get_needed_bytes(x) sizeof(x))
- shift integer before memcpy() on big endian machines
- alignment issues: unaligned reads when loading binary plist. Leads
to slow runtime performance (kernel trapping and fixing things up),
SIGBUS (kernel not helping us out)
- introduce get_unaligned() and have the compiler generate the code
needed for the unaligned access
(note that there remains unaligned accesses that I haven't been able
to track down - I've seen 2 of them with test #2)
- type-punning issues: breaking strict aliasing rules can lead to
unexpected results as the compiler takes full advantage of the aliasing
while optimizing
- introduce the plist_uint_ptr union instead of casting pointers
Tested on amd64, alpha and hppa.

I haven't retested the freebsd amd64 linker script I sent you already, I think it should be fine too. This causes FTBFS for gnu-efi users on ia32 builds. I am available for sponsoring/helping with the packaging as needed, just drop me a mail and tell me what you need. My previous offer for co-maintenance still stands, too!

Hi, Upstream CVS log: Got rid of dpy global variable in libAfterBase and libAfterIMage for good. Moved it into libAfterStep instead, as it incorporates screen handling functionality. That is an API *and* ABI change for all three libraries, and that warrants a soversion bump for all three libraries. Which has not been done.

Bug#404640: Still insecure?
severity 404460 normal thanks Alexander Kurtz kurtz.a...@googlemail.com wrote: Hi, [1] The web interface can be accessed remotely = local access only That's intended, I don't know why you think it's a bug. [2] There is a default password set, which is mt-daapd = lock admin account per default, set no password Debatable. [3] The password isn't checked if you're coming via localhost = check password Only if no password is set in the config file, and there's one by default. [4] /etc/mt-daapd.conf stores the admin-pw as clear text and is world-readable. It's not world-readable, the postinst adds a statoverride and makes it mode 0600. If you've upgraded, it's possible you fell into a window of time during which the statoverride was mishandled. (that predates my involvment with mt-daapd) So check the statoverrides for /etc/mt-daapd.conf. Could also be the result of using a careless editor used to edit the config file. = store the password using a salted hash OR use the root password like the CUPS webinterface does Hashed password can be done, but requires some invasive changes, is a significant deviation from upstream and breaks the ability to simply edit the config file to change the password. Violates the principle of least surprise for the user, so it's not that great. This is an absolute security nightmare! Even worse, according to Joshua Kwan, only [3] and [4] have been (partially) fixed so far. I have some reserves about Joshua's views on mt-daapd, though I do share some of his concerns. Honestly, installing mt-daapd is IMHO not better than setting your root-pw to root and installing a ssh server! mt-daapd is not running as root, so that's just pure FUD. Put down your crack pipe. To recap: 1. is bullshit, 2. is debatable, but really not a big deal either, it's a matter of policy, 3. is wrong, plain and simple, 4. is wrong on the permissions, correct on the plaintext password. I don't see a bug here, yet. Wishlist bugs, yes, CRITICAL SECURITY BUGS OMGWTFBBQ WE'RE ALL DOOMED ZOMG!!11!!1!!1, certainly NOT. I'm certainly interested in fixing real bugs in mt-daapd, that being said, the mt-daapd package in Debian is probably the best version of mt-daapd you can find due to the patches I've collected or written... Upstream being in the sorry state it is, if I were to go and do some extensive patching, Debian (read: me) would become the de facto upstream, and I'm not sure I want to do that just yet.

I made the presubj script and don't use Ubuntu. The text does mention debian specifically, upstream are using launchpad for their bts which is why presubj directs users there. OK, my bad. Still, I suggest rewording the presubj, as users don't necessarily know what upstream is/means. Something like: If the bug you are reporting is not specific to Debian (packaging bug or introduced by a Debian modification), please file your bug report in the hplip bug tracker located at https://launchpad.net/hplip/+filebug If you want to make the maintainer and other Debian users aware of this bug, you can file the bug in the Debian bug tracking system as well; in this case, please indicate the reference of the bug filed in the hplip bug tracker.

I don't know what's causing that, I did not have enough time to spend on that issue this morning when I sent the followup. I straced -f the postinst script but that output is very long and it takes some time to go through it. I may give it a try tonight or tomorrow, though (was looking for a lockfile to kill). I tried moving away my ~/.openoffice.org2 entirely and that didn't help, confirming that at least for the postinst the lockfile isn't the problem.

Bug#468202: openoffice.org-writer2latex: postinst barfs, no workarounds
Package: openoffice.org-writer2latex
Version: 0.5-5
Followup-For: Bug #468202
Hi,
Here the postinst barfs, the purge barfs too, I have no lockfile around
(contrary to what unopkg claims during the purge), purging and reinstalling
does not work.
strace on the postinst script reveals that unopkg does most (if not all)
of its job but still fails (I can see it opening various XML and other OOo
files).
The upgrade worked on other machines of mine.
I'd happily remove writer2latex which I do not need, if only it wasn't a
Depends. Please demote it to a Recommends.
JB.
