with lower priority.


This (general) problem has been discussed (several times?) on
debian-devel already and as far as I remember and understood it was that
raising the priority of the relevant systemd binary packages could be
done but it did not solve any *practical* problem. Instead it seemed
easier to just fix policy. I guess that's where everyone lost
interest


Indeed, it doesn't fix any actual problem, but raising priority of
library and helper packages actually creates problems.

Let's take rsyslog as an example, which is priority important, so
raising all the library dependencies to = important now means, if I
debootstrap a chroot and want to exclude rsyslog, I have to exclude all
dependend libraries as well. Or if I remove rsyslog (e.g. because I
switched to another syslogger or no syslogger), I have to manually
uninstall the unused libraries.

Please, let's not continue doing this non-sense and fix policy.


or just build without the dependency in the 1st place like it used to 
be. After all it's not like it adds anything that's essential.

Bug#729088: printer-applet crashes on launch

2013-11-08 Thread Tim Wootton
Package: printer-applet
Version: 4:4.8.4-1
Severity: grave
Justification: renders package unusable

Dear Maintainer,
printer-applet crashes on launch for all users on both systems I've tested on.
Trace from command-line execution:

KCrash: Attempting to start /usr/lib/kde4/libexec/drkonqi from kdeinit

 Problem appears to be a SIGSEGV while attempting to write to an already closed 
and previously O_RDONLY file descriptor for the user's

Bug#309321: approx: Approx stops processing TCP rx queue

2005-05-23 Thread Tim Wootton
Thanks Eric,

As you predicted the 104 Connection Reset errors seem to have gone
with the pipelining workaround. The original problem however persists,
but at least one possible culprit has been eliminated.

Bug#309321: approx: Approx stops processing TCP rx queue

2005-05-18 Thread Tim Wootton
Hi Eric,

Yep, no problem:

Just to help here's a diagram of the initial setup


+-+ +--++--+
+---+
|uk.debian.org||server01  |---|server02
||client01   |
+-+ |(approx  ||(approx  |
|(client of |
+---+   |client of ||client of |
|server02)  |
|security.debian.org|--|localhost)||localhost)| |
| 
+---+   +--++--+
+---+

I should also point out that server02 is shared by a number of other
clients, not just 
client01. 

Is it possible that approx somehow marks a file as pending from
upstream, when in fact 
the download has failed, or been interrupted? It could then permanently
believe the file 
is not yet available, when it never will be.

Syslog on server02 only thing that looks odd is a few
utimes: Operation not permitted on Packages.gz files
When I checked the perms the file is rw for user approx which seems
right to me.


Can fail at any point, sometimes in the download of packages files,
sometimes 
in the fetch of the package.dpkg files. It may not be related, but even
when things
are working fairly ok, I do seem to get quite a few 
Error reading from server - read (104 Connection reset by peer) 
messages in aptitude/apt-get which I don't get if I switch back to
apt-proxy. Each
time it leaves a bunch of connections to it's upstream in the CLOSE_WAIT
state. There
remains, however only one connection in the ESTABLISHED state with a
high value rx q.
If I then repeat the run it will be all or most of the same downloads
that fail.

If I connect apt directly to the upstream, and the upstream is the
remote debian mirror,
that always works fine. Otherwise the same thing happens but not quite
so
regularly, I guess the problem can occur in any of the approx instances
in the chain.
For each instance you take out of the chain the lower the chance of
bumping into a problem.

Different remote? - see above, the debian mirror never fails.

Wget seems to work ok on the files that are getting 
Error reading from server - read (104 Connection reset by peer)
from aptitude/apt-get
which is interesting.

Hope this helps rather than confuses the issue, anything else you'd like
me to try just let me know.

Cheers,

Tim

Bug#309321: approx: Approx stops processing TCP rx queue

2005-05-18 Thread Tim Wootton
Hi Eric,

I may have a clue on reproducing the problem:

Try aborting apt-get or aptitude midway through a download and then
re-try.
This is seems to trigger the problem here. 

Tim

Bug#309321: approx: Approx stops processing TCP rx queue

2005-05-16 Thread Tim Wootton
Package: approx
Version: 1.15
Severity: grave
Justification: renders package unusable


Aprrox appears to hang, netstat shows that it's stoped emptying data from the
rx queue:

Proto Recv-Q Send-Q Local Address   Foreign Address State
tcp65664  0 lonspx01:35773  open.hands.com:www  ESTABLISHED

tcpdump shows only keepalives on the tcp connection - no data flow (assume
window maxed out)

Restarting approx will clear the condition, but it will reccur soon afterwards.
I've left it overnight in this condition, but it dosn't recover.
I'm not sure if it's relevant but the downstream client is another instance of
approx with apt on that machine connecting to localhost.
