 Yes, both are an improvement over sysvinit.

pros or cons.
 
 I think this is false, both as a description of fact and as a
 description of claimed consensus view. Systemd has advanced
 significantly further than upstart, and this is more a technical reality
 than a matter of opinion like something such as preferred GUI behavior;
 this is better compared to whether Linux or MINIX was a more promising
 platform for future development in the 1990s. There is a lack of
 consensus, rather than a consensus that it's a matter of opinion or
 philosophy with no clear technical arguments.

We can argue for a long time about which one is technically better.
The result of that discussion does not matter much (since you are invoking
Linux vs MINIX, look at Hurd vs Linux).

If I were you, I would be very worried about the risk that the decision
will be taken not by looking at which one is the best, but by looking at
which one is de-facto supported in Debian. In that area, systemd is very
late, since:
- AFAIK nobody has started the effort to document things in policy
- there are 300+ upstart job files ready to be imported from Ubuntu

So, please work on:
- policy support
- outlining how systemd and sysvinit can properly co-exist in the archive
  (this is required in any case for the duration of the transition)
- outlining how the transition could be achieved, eased, and tracked

   Well, Colin Watson, Matthias Klose, Steve Langasek, James Hunt and I
   have discussed the state of the kfreebsd possibility a few times over
   the past year or so.

 I started porting libnih and upstart to GNU/kFreeBSD some months ago,
 just for fun, whenever I had nothing else to do. But then I'm not
 interested in assigning my copyright to a for-profit company that is
 not employing me (and no, this is not a job request); so I didn't
 post anything yet, because I don't use upstart, didn't want to promise
 anything (still don't), and it would present as an _interesting_
 situation for the Debian upstart maintainers (either reject the
 patches or carry them forever as a small fork...).

This is interesting to know.  Out of curiosity, if you don't intend to
license your patch under the Canonical CLA, what was your aim in doing this
port?  I'm not sure where that puts us; we're certainly interested in seeing
a BSD port of upstart, but obviously being unable to integrate that port
upstream is less than ideal.  By chance is there anyone else among the BSD
porters who would be more willing to do do such a port under the CLA terms? 
Or do you think Scott's original suggestion to maintain the bsd port as a
separate branch (which for Debian's purposes might imply a separate source
package; or else a patch stack in the source package that needs
forward-ported after each upstream release) is viable?

Oh, FYI, libnih is not covered by the Canonical CLA; Canonical is not the
sole copyright holder on it, and Scott, not Canonical, is the upstream
maintainer.

 As mentioned on the porting guide above, waitid() should be replaceable
 with kqueue's EVFILT_PROC anyway.

While it's good in a general sense to know that there are comparable
facilities that upstart *could* be ported to on BSD, I don't see a port
being successful without direct engagement from a BSD porter.  Certainly, I
don't see Canonical being the ones to drive this forward.

On advocating NM applicants

2013-05-22 Thread Jonathan Wiltshire (Front Desk)
Hi,

In the past few days and weeks there have been many advocacies, for new
applicants and for DM-DD applicants.

Please take advantage of the NM web interface where possible, as it makes
the process much more streamlined for us. If the applicant doesn't have a
record there yet, please wait patiently until they (or front desk) say go!
and then do that.

Your message will be sent on to debian...@lists.debian.org on your behalf,
and meanwhile we get all the information required in one place.

To advocate someone through the web interface:

1. Log in to https://nm.debian.org/
2. Use the People tab to find the applicant of interest [1]
3. Choose something appropriate from the links at the top right of the
   page. Advocate for DD is normally what you're after.
4. Enter your message and if you're the first, also choose if this is to be
   an uploading or non-uploading application.

You can still email your advocacy to front desk or debian-nm, but it will
be copied into here in any case.

Thanks for your assistance!


1: you will end up somewhere like https://nm.debian.org/public/person/jmw/

 Additionally, there was requests for packaging for xssstatus, which is
 (by upstream) a part of suckless-tools too, but (as for other
 suckless-tools) have separate tarball. For example, if xsstools will
 be included in main package, then «tools for minimalist window
 managers» will depend on xscreensaver even if they also includes dumb
 x locker. So, at least two or three of the tools already have reasons
 for making separate packages for them, that's not good — it's better
 then packages for one vendor organized in some common way.

You don't need to depend if only a minor functionality of the package
depends on some other package, a suggests is fine.  See
http://bugs.debian.org/cgi-bin/bugreport.cgi?bug=119517

With 3.0 (quilt), you can have multiple upstream tarballs too.

Theoretically yes, but I haven't looked into DEP8 so far ... reading ...

Quoting from the autopkgtest specification:
 The cwd of each test is guaranteed to be the root of the source
 package, which will have been unpacked but not built.  HOWEVER note

Since piuparts does not know about source packages, this may be a bit
more difficult.
But it looks like it could be rather easy to have an --autopkgtest
option for pbuilder/sbuild as they already have the matching sources at

A related point which I think is very important is the effect of

Actually, in the EU this is called antitrust and considered a good
thing for a “market”, also increasing innovation by open competition.

Systemd is already guaranteed to live,

Yeah, in a proprietary RedHat world…

could easily switch to. Maintaining and extending such a split between
distros should be seen as a big negative, regardless of how upstart

No, it should be seen as a bit *positive*, for the aforementioned
reason as well as for reasons already seen on the list.

IMO essentially irrelevant distractions such as effects on marginal
systems like kFreeBSD shouldn't be brought up at all.

Like it or not, but kFreeBSD *is* now part of the ecosystem.
And I still think internal consistency is something desirable,
so sysvinit should stay the default, with other init systems
(yes this does include OpenRC) available for these who want
to use it.

 As Debian, we have two different problems:
 1. We need to decide which init systems we want to support, and how.
 2. We need to decide which init system should be the default.

We will have a GR about that.

I don't think it's at all obvious that it would make sense to support
more than systemd

Debian is the Universal Operating System, not GNOME OS.
If you want to develop GNOME OS, please do it as a Derivate
or Blend, or something entirely separate.

Really, reading this makes Roger’s (IIRC) suggestion of removing
it entirely all that more enticing…

fit-for-use maintenance of all three systems sounds like a rather costly

I see it like with new ports: if a new init system wants to be
supported, they should help the package maintainers along in
providing support, while the individual package maintainers
should be gently encouraged to actually include said patches.
And sysvinit is still the gold standard. (I personally like
BSD stuff more, but from what Debian provides it’s the least
evil or rather the one most people can agree to work with.)

software among people, companies, businesses, non-for-profits,
governments and NGOs than any other free software company or
organisation. It can be seen from the amount of pre-installed machines
shipped with Ubuntu from all Tier-1 hardware vendors and many other
smaller hardware vendors. Oracle is a company with a cold, hard,
cash goal. Canonical whilst striving to be self-sustaining, evidently
spends most of its profits/money on new ResearchDevelopment be it
Linaro, Unity, Juju or the SaaS offerings like U1  Landscape suite of
services. Some produce more open source software than others, and all
of these will be ranked differently by each person differently, am I
still yet to be screwed by Canonical's projects. Please correct me if
I am wrong, but none of Canonical CA covered projects yet to (a)
change their license or (b) go proprietary. Since Canonical's CA
inception, it has been modified to grant less rights to canonical and
counter keep more to the authors, thus adjusting the balance based on
community feedback. And more and more software is released as open
source. Contrast with what Oracle has been doing in the past years.

FSF on the other hand:
* GFDL fiasco - because clearly the world cannot live another day
without RMS essay, and oh my one shouldn't generate GCC documentation
from code comments
* SSL licensing - the combination of gnutls going v3  v3 still being
incompatible with OpenSSL and/or v2
* Clang/LLVM - moving gcc to v3  thus making Apple contribute/develop
LLVM instead of continuing to use gcc (/me is on gcc camp, thus it's
fsf's negative point. Others might cheer for this move, which gave the
birth to Clang, eventually)
* GNU Project mismanagement/micromanagement - (GnuTLS  sed  others)
https://lwn.net/Articles/529522/  https://lwn.net/Articles/530460/
These are just a few grudges I have against FSF.

I like FSF EU division though.

As you say, Relatedly, the PSF is great. So CA alone, is really not
a cause or reason for one's actions. In general, I like CAs as it
assigns liability to a 3rd party that can afford lawyers.

Dmitrijs.

mere fact that you remove profit from the equation reduces quite a bit

No, that is *exactly* the point: yes, companies may have different

to those objectives.

A contract is binding, whether one party to the contract is a nonprofit,
a company, or a private person; if you receive promises (in writing)

anyway, you have perfect grounds to sue them for breach of contract.

 The problem (quotes because it's just the
 way things are) with companies is that they can be sold and bought, and
 the new management can have entirely different objectives, and

If you trusted the former management and didn't sign any contract with
them, then that's your own fault, and you got entirely what you deserved.

In contrast, if you signed a well-specified contract with the former
management that specified explicitly what they could and could not do,
and then the new management heads off and does it anyway, you still have
the right to sue them. After all, you signed a contract with the
company, not with the company's management.

]] Lucas Nussbaum 

 If I were you, I would be very worried about the risk that the decision
 will be taken not by looking at which one is the best, but by looking at
 which one is de-facto supported in Debian. In that area, systemd is very
 late, since:
 - AFAIK nobody has started the effort to document things in policy
 - there are 300+ upstart job files ready to be imported from Ubuntu
 
 So, please work on:
 - policy support
 - outlining how systemd and sysvinit can properly co-exist in the archive
   (this is required in any case for the duration of the transition)
 - outlining how the transition could be achieved, eased, and tracked

We're going to respond to those once the time period for the survey is
up.  Until then, could we please not be having this discussion?

When you compare the time it takes to write an upstart job file or a

think this argument makes any sense. If the only things we do for
improving the distribution are to take stuff from Ubuntu because, well,

Deciding on init systems (Was: Debian systemd survey)

  As Debian, we have two different problems:

(I assume that by about that, you mean (2). For (1), we only need
people to do the work.)

While this is a possible outcome, I think that this is rather unlikely.
If it happens, it would be the most technical GR ever seen so far, and a
failure, as we would not have been able to achieve a decision by other
means.
Also, it would be very inefficient to ask every DD to acquire sufficient
knowledge about init systems to be able to take an informed decision
about that.

Instead, if the decision of which one should be the default is not
consensual by the time we have made sufficient progress on supporting
the various init systems (policy changes, understanding how they can
coexist and how packages can migrate to them), I think that it would be
a good solution to ask the technical committee to decide on that.

As the maintainer of a package which is strongly tied to the init 
system, I disagree.

 Then, something I failed to find in the discussion was a discussion of
 how sysvinit / systemd / upstart could co-exist (not on a single system,
 but in the archive).
I suggest that this is related to my first point.

 I understand that systemd replaces some parts of
 initscripts, could also replace syslog, etc. How do systemd supporters
 see that working in practice? What kind of feature duplication between
 init sytems should be expected? How much does it increase the
 maintenance effort?
I am not strictly a systemd supporter but more like a modern init 
system supporter, and the duplication, increased mainteinance overhead 
and lack of QA are the reasons why I do not want to support multiple 
init systems in my packages and I do not think that Debian should either 
as a project.

 Is it realistic to dream about a generator that would automate the
 generation of sysvinit scripts, systemd .service files, and upstart job
 files for a majority of our packages (the easy ones)?
The easy ones can continue using sysvinit scripts for a while, since 
they can coexist with both upstart and systemd configurations.
(Maybe better in the systemd case.)

It predates suckless-tools in the archive. Therefore, suckless-tools

Yes, both are an improvement over sysvinit.



Hrmm, I have not tested systemd yet, but personally I'm not conviced 
about the advantages of upstart:


- Stops booting *somtimes*, does not provide any information why. I 
didn't report a bug yet as an almost black screen won't help in any way 
how to figure out why it stopped. Already that stops without any further 
information why and where is a sufficiently big design issue, imho.
(Btw, in the mean time I belive this issue is related to /etc/mtab, but 
I'm not sure yet.).


- Updating/install programs in a chroot fails with weird messages that 
those programs (afaik for example X) cannot connect to upstart. Well, it 
is a chroot, what does it expect?


- Personally I'm using unionfs-fuse as very first init script to mount 
/etc and /var and others on my development systems. So no need to modify 
an initrams, but a very simple approach and controllable using a boot 
script. But specifying a script to be run *before* anything else is not

 What about launchd? Wouldn't it be possible to port that to

launchd relies heavily on Mach and Apple specific interfaces, and while
there was a GSOC to port it to FreeBSD, funnily enough, in the end it
might be easier to port it to GNU/Hurd! :)

Also last I checked the upstream svn repo had not seen any update in a

  Description : ESO data reduction pipeline SINFONI

This is the data reduction pipeline for the SINFONI instrument of the
Very Large Telescope (VLT) from the European Southern Observatory (ESO).
.
SINFONI is a near-infrared (1.1 - 2.45 µm) integral field spectrograph
fed by an adaptive optics module, currently installed at the Cassegrain
focus of UT4. The spectrograph operates with 4 gratings (J, H, K, H+K)
providing a spectral resolution around 2000, 3000, 4000 in J, H, K,
respectively, and 1500 in H+K - each wavelength band fitting fully on
the 2048 pixels of the Hawaii 2RG (2kx2k) detector in the dispersion
direction. The spatial resolution is selectable from 0.25, 0.1 to
0.025 per image slice, which corresponds to a field-of-view of 8x8,
3x3, or 0.8x0.8 respectively. The instrument can be also used for
seeing limited open loop observations.

  Description : ESO data reduction pipeline FORS

FORS pipeline recipes for the reduction of data obtained with the FORS1
and FORS2 instruments in the LSS, MOS, MXU, PMOS, and direct imaging
instrument modes.
.
FORS is the visual and near UV FOcal Reducer and low dispersion
Spectrograph for the Very Large Telescope (VLT) of the European Southern
Observatory (ESO). Two versions of FORS have been built, upgraded and
moved to the Cassegrain foci of different telescopes in the past years.
In April 2009, FORS1 was dismounted to make room for X-shooter, so only
FORS2 is in operation. FORS is designed as an all-dioptric instrument
for the wavelength range from 330 nm to 1100 nm and provides an image
scale of 0.25/pixel (or 0.125/pixel with the high resolution
collimator) in the standard readout mode (2x2 binning). FORS2 is
installed on UT1 (Antu) and is by default equipped with a detector
system that is optimised for the red with a very low level of fringes
thanks to a mosaic of two 2k x 4k MIT CCDs (with 15 µm pixels). However,
the blue-optimised detector system that was previously available on
FORS1 has been commissioned on FORS2 and can be requested for Visitor
Mode observation. The geometries of both detector systems are similar,
with the optical axis falling ~30 above the gap and offsets of a few
arc-seconds between the two chips. FORS2 has many modes, including
multi-object spectroscopy with exchangable masks, long-slit
spectroscopy, imaging and spectro-polarimetry and high-time resolution
imaging and spectroscopy.

 Yes, both are an improvement over sysvinit.

 Hrmm, I have not tested systemd yet, but personally I'm not conviced
 about the advantages of upstart:

 - Stops booting *somtimes*, does not provide any information why. I
 didn't report a bug yet as an almost black screen won't help in any
 way how to figure out why it stopped. Already that stops without any
 further information why and where is a sufficiently big design
 issue, imho.
 (Btw, in the mean time I belive this issue is related to /etc/mtab,
 but I'm not sure yet.).

Sorry you ran into trouble with upstart.  Probably related to /etc/fstab,
rather than /etc/mtab...  Due to incomplete upstart integration of plymouth
in Debian at present, if there are problems in /etc/fstab, mountall won't
always be able to display any prompt to the user asking what to do (cf. 
http://web.dodds.net/~vorlon/wiki/blog/Plymouth_is_not_a_bootsplash/).

Whereas sysvinit would eventually give up on trying to mount filesystems in
/etc/fstab if they were missing at boot and continue booting without them,
upstart takes the design decision that this is an error that the admin needs
to deal with directly.  This ensures that the system always boots reliably
in the face of slow disks, which become more of a problem now that your
init system is so fast that it can boot before your hardware has been
probed.

Feel free to file a bug report against the upstart package (with a copy of
your /etc/fstab attached) so we can look at this further.

 - Updating/install programs in a chroot fails with weird messages
 that those programs (afaik for example X) cannot connect to upstart.
 Well, it is a chroot, what does it expect?

This is bug #685779, which will be fixed in the next upload of sysvinit to
unstable.

 - Personally I'm using unionfs-fuse as very first init script to
 mount /etc and /var and others on my development systems. So no need
 to modify an initrams, but a very simple approach and controllable
 using a boot script. But specifying a script to be run *before*
 anything else is not possible (yet?).

I'm skeptical of the value of such a design in place of just using an
initramfs, but the 'friendly-recovery' package in Ubuntu gives an example of
to do this.  You create an upstart job that's 'start on real-startup-event',
runs your necessary pre-setup, and at the end calls 'initctl emit startup'
to call into the rest of the boot sequence; then you pass
'--startup-event=real-startup-event' to init on the kernel commandline.

In which way do you disagree with what I wrote, exactly? Maybe my
English was wrong, so let me explain it in simple words.
Time to write an upstart job = short
Time to write a systemd unit file = short
Time to test an upstart job = long
Time to test a systemd unit file = long

Therefore:
How much we should care of existing upstart jobs = little
How much we should care of existing systemd unit files = little

  If the only things we do for improving the distribution are to take stuff

 and freedesktop.org without regard to integration with our existing system,

Yes of course, because Debian is well-known for using fd.o and GNOME
software as is, without patching it ever, and adopting new technologies
blindly and very quickly, before they are well tested.

Have it ever occurred to you that people might want to see systemd as
default, not because Lennart said it, but because they think it is
better than any alternative? Better than upstart *in the way it
integrates with our existing system*, BTW.

I understand it will be a pain for Ubuntu if Debian picks a different
init system. I don’t think this is relevant for the discussion, though.

 E: libgd-tools: binary-or-shlib-defines-rpath usr/bin/annotate

 Yes, I'm afraid that's unavoidable.  This issue is mentioned in the
 README.Debian file.  This works by installing the .so file in a
 non-standard location so that it can coexist with libtiff4, and linking
 in that way with libtool the rpath to be embedded.  Once the tiff
 transition is completed and the packages are rebuilt, this problem will
 go away.

 This shouldn't be required, since the two libtiff shared libraries can
 both go into /usr/lib (since they have different SONAMEs).  The only thing
 that can't go into /usr/lib and has to go somewhere else is the *.so
 symlink, which doesn't require an rpath setting, only a -L flag during
 linking.

The .so files (there are two libraries), static libraries, and .la files
are already the only files in a non-standard location.  Basically only
the files whose names clash are in non-standard locations.  (Tiff still
can't remove its .la file yet, or at least it couldn't though I can't
remember the exact details of when it's okay to remove the .la
fileit has a lot of reverse dependencies  It's the only package
I maintain that still installs .la files.)  I don't remember exactly
what is causing the rpath to appear, but I remember having investigated
it and determined, possibly incorrectly, that I couldn't fix it without
modifying libtool.  I will give it another look.  It is my recollection
that libtool is automatically adding the rpath when it finds the .so
file in a non-standard location since it assumes that the actual shared
library will be in the same directory as the .so file.  In other words,
the rpath is not actually being used hereit is pointing to a place
where the libraries are not found.  I am already adjusting the .so file
manually in the installation to ensure that it points to the correct
place:

$ dpkg --contents libtiff5-alt-dev_4.0.2-6_amd64.deb | fgrep .so
lrwxrwxrwx root/root 0 2013-01-26 12:33

./usr/lib/x86_64-linux-gnu/libtiff5-alt/libtiffxx.so - ../libtiffxx.so.5.1.0

 See the krb5-multidev and heimdal-multidev packages for how this is done.

I'll give them a look and see if I can tell what they're doing
differently.

these are just more or less a simple set of instructions to give
systemd some hints on how to deal with the targets and services, it
actually does most of the work automatically without the need of scripts
at all (which are obviously still required for upstart).


If the only things we do for improving the distribution are to take stuff
from Ubuntu because, well, it’s here, we might as well stop developing
anything at all.


Sure; obviously the right thing to do is to instead take stuff from GNOME
and freedesktop.org without regard to integration with our existing system,
because if Lennart says it's right it must be so.


Honestly, these personal accusations against Lennart are getting old and
boring. Don't you really have any other good argument to bring up
against systemd other than you dislike *one* of the systemd developers?*

And while I don't support all of the decisions GNOME upstream makes, I
fully support f.d.o as an actual free and independent organization
which hosts the development of systemd.

*When* there is one company that is trying to fragment the Linux world
then it's Canonical with its urge to come up with one NIH project
after another, be it Bazaar (which seems to have been abandoned by
upstream with 2000 open bugs [1]) or the Mir display server
which isn't supported by neither the X.org/DRM developers or
any developers of desktops like KDE, Enlightment or GNOME.

* As you may know, systemd is developed by a large amount of

Bug#709363: ITP: libmodule-build-cleaninstall-perl -- module to remove the old module before installing the new one

2013-05-22 Thread Oleg Gashev
Package: wnpp
Severity: wishlist
Owner: Oleg Gashev o...@gashev.net

* Package name: libmodule-build-cleaninstall-perl
  Version : 0.05
  Upstream Author : Joel A. Berger joel.a.ber...@gmail.com
* URL : https://metacpan.org/release/Module-Build-CleanInstall/
* License : Artistic or GPL-1+
  Programming Lang: Perl
  Description : module to remove the old module before installing the new 
one

 Module::Build::CleanInstall is a subclass of Module::Build with one
 additional feature, before upgrading the module from and old version to a new
 one, it first removes the files installed by the previous version. This is
 useful especially when the new version will not contain some files that the
 old one did, and it is necessary that those files do not remain in place.
 .
 Since it is a subclass of Module::Build it is used exactly like that module.
 Module::Build::CleanInstall does provide an additional action uninstall, but
 it need not be called separately; the action install will call it when
 invoked.
 .
 The uninstalling is done by removing the files in the installed module's
 packlist|ExtUtils::Packlist which is created when the module is first
 installed.

 Actually it sounds like you propose to stop developing and take

 Seems to me that luckily not everybody agrees with that approach (CTTE

This isn't appropriate.  I'm quite confident that Josselin is making
informed technical judgements in what he views as the best interests of
the project and the best technological direction for Debian.  It's
certainly fair game to disagree with him about the wisdom of that
direction, but please don't level these kinds of accusations.

There are a lot of people who choose to use systemd on its own merits.  I
know of green-field Linux-based projects with no vested interest in any
choice that have chosen systemd purely on its merits (and others that have
not).  This is not one of those decisions where there's an obvious correct
choice and everyone else is just not looking at the problem properly.

The CTTE bugs you cite were about a difficult tradeoff between integration
and flexibilty, with strong usability arguments to be made on both sides.
Just because the CTTE ended up disagreeing with the initial choice of the
GNOME maintainers doesn't mean that Josselin did anything wrong.  It means
that we have a governance process for making controversial decisions;
that's what it's there for.  It's not always obvious what decisions will
be controversial in advance, and different people working on different
parts of the project can, completely in good faith, view the relative
merits of different tradeoffs differently.

I agree that ideally, a swift and uneventful transition to a single
modern init system would be great. Unfortunately, we have two strong
alternatives, and no clear collective understanding of which one is
better now, and will be for the future.

I fully understand that supporting more than one init system increases
the maintenance effort and the QA needs significantly, and that this is
unlikely to be sustainable on the long term. However, this is a possible
compromise that buys us time while we gain a better understanding of the
pros and cons of each solution.

What I failed to understand so far is what it would mean to support
sysvinit, systemd and upstart from the point of view of udev (and other

systemd .service file conversion

2013-05-22 Thread Helmut Grohne
On Tue, May 21, 2013 at 10:53:43PM +0200, Lucas Nussbaum wrote:
 There was a GSoC project in 2012 about generating sysvinit scripts from
 systemd .service files. Was there some communication about its outcome?

I had a look at this idea and its result. From what I saw, I do not
believe a conversion process to be successful in a big enough fraction
of actual .service files. This is because systemd (and for that matter
upstart should we consider a job file conversion as well) actually
provide more functionality than sysv does. Some of that functionality
does not properly map to an init script conversion.

 * stdout/stderr to syslog redirection
   This is possibly implementable, but needs more than a line of shell.
 * supervision/service restart/heartbeat
   sysv simply does not provide this functionality. Other tools are
   needed to mimic this. An option could be djb's daemontools. Still you
   either end up with some supervision process with similar tasks as
   systemd/upstart or have a supervision process per service.
 * missing dependencies
   Due to the use of socket activation it is to be expected that
   services stop declaring their dependencies. In .service files this
   information commonly is not present, because it is not needed.
 * socket activation cont'd
   I guess that at some point services will expect that their sockets
   are already open when they are started, because this eliminates a
   privileged bind() operation.
 * resource/privilege limitations
   Service files provide a mechanism to describe and limit the required
   privileges or resources. Some of these map to shell commands, others
   don't. Arguably this part is non-essential to a conversion process.

You can already see parts of these in action in current .service files,
but it is to be expected that there will be more usage of these and
other features.

 Is it realistic to dream about a generator that would automate the
 generation of sysvinit scripts, systemd .service files, and upstart job
 files for a majority of our packages (the easy ones)?

Based on the above arguments, I believe that a conversion process will
not work out. (I note that I may be wrong here.) Talking just about
systemd and sysvinit, there is the possibility to create a .service
interpreter to let sysvinit execute systemd .services. upstart already
has such an interpreter. The necessary hooks in sysvinit/insserv already
exist and are easily extensible. I therefore suggest to drop the idea of
generating shell scripts. Also consider the amount of work required to
fix a bug in a conversion utility compared to an interpreter. Are we
really gonna rebuild all services (that only ship a .service file)?

From my point of view this raises the question of interoperability
between systemd and upstart. Is a conversion in either direction
feasible? Possibly systemd - upstart, because we already have the job
interpreter?

A hint of what? That some people will appeal to the CTTE regardless (or
to a GR, like it was hinted several times in this thread already)
because they feel entitled to tell others what to do and how they should
do it? Because they know better what an operating system should be?

I do not accept this kind of intellectual terrorism, where a handful of
low-throughput contributors (when they contribute at all), who never
even try to understand the issues at hand, keep on bitching and whining
endlessly, unsatisfied until others abandon whatever they were trying to
improve. This behavior is toxic to the project. It leads to sclerosis,
killing any kind of momentum that can be built around a given direction.

You don’t get to define what Debian is. It is fortunate that the CTTE
thinks twice before answering to such requests; and in the case of NM,
despite heated discussions, the result ended up satisfying for all
involved parties – except of course for those who just can’t stand the
idea that NM could be installed on a Debian computer, but it’s not as if
those who really develop Debian really cared for them.

Thanks for CCing me, which I assume was in my rôle as base-passwd
maintainer.  I only really need to be involved if you need static IDs
for some reason, rather than the normally-preferred method of using
dynamic IDs via 'adduser --system'.  If so, please give a short
explanation of why that's the case.

Policy 10.9 does say to check even dynamic names with the base-passwd
maintainer, and I congratulate you for being one of the very few
developers to read it in close enough detail to notice that. ;-)  That
wording should perhaps be revised, as neither I nor (as far as I know)
any of my predecessors have kept a registry of all dynamic names used in
Debian, only of the IDs we've allocated from the static ranges 0-99 and
6-64999, so we aren't really in a position to perform a reliable
check for name uniqueness.

I'd normally just require that statically-allocated user/group names
should be obviously derived either from your package name or,
occasionally, from the name of one of the commands you ship, and that's
generally good practice for dynamically-allocated names too.  The names
you suggest are close enough to your package name, and that package name
is distinct enough, that I think there's very unlikely to be a clash and
you should be fine.  So, if all you need is dynamically-allocated IDs,
then go ahead.

We currently have no good policy about how to name system users, but

alphanumeric usernames like those.  (They are longer than eight
characters, which avoids some local namespaces, but not all.)

There are two conventions that other packages have used to make it less
likely that system accounts will conflict with local usernames:

* Append Debian- to the username, as in Debian-opensmtpd
* Append an underscore, as in _opensmtpd

I personally mildly prefer the latter just because it's simple, although
it isn't as informative or robust against any namespace issue.  Note that
you will have to pass --force-badname to adduser to let you use an
underscore in the name.

 We currently have no good policy about how to name system users, but

I've never been a fan of worrying about this, largely because the names
that are really a practical problem are mostly the ones that have been
around forever and that we're stuck with (things like man could well
be a real name; I have a co-worker whose initials are apparently SSH;
people occasionally try to use things like staff; and so on), while
most of the ones that have been introduced more recently, and certainly
the longer and/or more elaborate ones, are likely to be innocuous.

Pragmatically, I wouldn't be inclined to lose any sleep over the chances
of somebody having a local username called opensmtpd that wasn't
actually for a local installation of this very same package.  And our
user/group namespace is such that it really almost has to be handled
pragmatically.

 There are two conventions that other packages have used to make it less
 likely that system accounts will conflict with local usernames:
 
 * Append Debian- to the username, as in Debian-opensmtpd

This was used by Debian-exim and not a lot else that I ever heard of.
In my view this scheme rightly failed; plenty of simple system
monitoring tools (top, ps, and the like) truncate long usernames in many
modes or turn them into UIDs, and sticking a seven-character prefix on
the front just seems to be trying to maximise the probability of trouble
like this, even though it is certainly clear.

  while there are some gotchas currently with process lifecycle (which will be
  fixed soon), there is also very complete documentation (for these issues,
  and generally).

 In which way do you disagree with what I wrote, exactly? Maybe my
 English was wrong, so let me explain it in simple words.
 Time to write an upstart job = short
 Time to write a systemd unit file = short
 Time to test an upstart job = long
 Time to test a systemd unit file = long

 Therefore:
 How much we should care of existing upstart jobs = little
 How much we should care of existing systemd unit files = little

I see - yes, I misunderstood your argument, and thought you were claiming
that upstart jobs take longer to write and test.  The above makes more
sense.

I do think that in the context of Debian, upstart has the upper hand in
terms of the testing owing to the fact that Ubuntu, which is very similar to
Debian, has already worked out most of the kinks.

But I'd rather demonstrate this instead of spending time arguing it, so...

   If the only things we do for improving the distribution are to take stuff
   from Ubuntu because, well, it’s here, we might as well stop developing
   anything at all.

  Sure; obviously the right thing to do is to instead take stuff from GNOME
  and freedesktop.org without regard to integration with our existing system,
  because if Lennart says it's right it must be so.

 Yes of course, because Debian is well-known for using fd.o and GNOME
 software as is, without patching it ever, and adopting new technologies
 blindly and very quickly, before they are well tested.

There certainly have been cases of fd.o changes being dropped into Debian
without dealing with the integration questions.  mime - .desktop is a prime
example of this.  .desktop is clearly far superior - but that doesn't mean
it's ok to drop the existing stuff on the floor.  So if your comment is a
fair critique of upstart proponents, then mine is an equally fair critique
of systemd proponents.

 Have it ever occurred to you that people might want to see systemd as
 default, not because Lennart said it, but because they think it is
 better than any alternative? Better than upstart *in the way it
 integrates with our existing system*, BTW.

Oh, it absolutely has occurred to me.  And has it occurred to you that the
upstart proponents likewise feel that theirs is the better alternative?

I'd be happy to hear you expand on how you think systemd integrates better
with the existing system in Debian.  I certainly don't see that this is the
case - particularly when the systemd dbus services, which people have told
me are so essential a component of the GNOME desktop going forward, had no
tested backend that integrated with the Debian locations for system-level
config files until I provided one for Ubuntu.

 I had a look at this idea and its result. From what I saw, I do not
 believe a conversion process to be successful in a big enough fraction
 of actual .service files. This is because systemd (and for that matter
 upstart should we consider a job file conversion as well) actually
 provide more functionality than sysv does. Some of that functionality
 does not properly map to an init script conversion.

Note that such conversion to a sysv init script is not supposed to
provide all the features that upstart and systemd provide.  Else
there would be no need to move to systemd or upstart in the first
place.

  * stdout/stderr to syslog redirection
This is possibly implementable, but needs more than a line of shell.

Do you know about logger(1)?  If that itself is not good enough,
it should be easy enough to make something that does what you
want.

  * missing dependencies
Due to the use of socket activation it is to be expected that
services stop declaring their dependencies. In .service files this
information commonly is not present, because it is not needed.

It's not because it's not needed that we can't add this.  If we
already have this information there is no need to throw it away.

  * socket activation cont'd
I guess that at some point services will expect that their sockets
are already open when they are started, because this eliminates a
privileged bind() operation.

That would just mean that those don't work at all with sysv
anymore, and since I think we still have to support sysv,
we should fix them.

 Based on the above arguments, I believe that a conversion process will
 not work out. (I note that I may be wrong here.) Talking just about
 systemd and sysvinit, there is the possibility to create a .service
 interpreter to let sysvinit execute systemd .services. upstart already
 has such an interpreter. The necessary hooks in sysvinit/insserv already
 exist and are easily extensible. I therefore suggest to drop the idea of
 generating shell scripts. Also consider the amount of work required to
 fix a bug in a conversion utility compared to an interpreter. Are we
 really gonna rebuild all services (that only ship a .service file)?

I would argue that if such a conversion script would exist, we can
probably have more consistent init script implementations, and
less bugs in them.

I'm also not sure why fixing a conversion script is that much
work.

Plsese note that I'm not saying that such a script is a good or
bad thing, just that I don't follow your arguments.

2013-05-22 Thread Nick Andrik
 That reminds me.  Is there a way to get blhc to tell me *which* line in a
 build log makes it think that compiler flags are hidden?

I agree that would be really useful

 https://buildd.debian.org/~brlink/packages/r/remctl.html is reporting that
 the compiler flags are hidden.  So far as I know, this is false, but this
 package builds Perl, PHP, Python, and Ruby extensions, and it's possible
 that one of those build systems is misconfigured.  But I can't tell from
 this page which line it's upset about.

Usually what I do is to copy the whole page and pass it through the
blhc on my local system.
In your case I get this message:

I wouldn't say that bazaar is completely dead, I just had a commit

still employed in other positions there. I have no idea what their

continue to be consumers of bazaar for the foreseeable future. No one
has stepped up to drive development, and I do wish Canonical would
make some sort of official statement about their intentions.

While it's a lot of work to query artibrary upstream projects, it
is pretty easy to query a distribution. Fedora is likely the most
unit-file-endowed distribution out there. According to repoquery,
724 distinct binary rpms provide unit files in /usr/lib/systemd/system,
in Fedora 19.

I'd guess that the majority of those files will be usable by Debian,
which usually packages more than Fedora.

This number must be compared with 1094 packages with scripts in
/etc/init.d (quoting Lucas Nussbaum from earlier in the thread here),
and packages having inetd or xinetd files. I'm not sure if this
comes out to a majority, but it probably fairly close.

started in parallel. If one of the services then attempts to query the
other, it'll hang (the kernel queues the packet) until the other
service starts processing requests. Declaring the dependency
explicitly doesn't gain anything, and can add an unnecessary slowdown.
It is just better to have the dependencies solved automagically, and
adding explicit requirements for the sake of sysvinit conversions is
unlikely to be met with much enthusiasm.

   * socket activation cont'd
 I guess that at some point services will expect that their sockets
 are already open when they are started, because this eliminates a
 privileged bind() operation.
 
 That would just mean that those don't work at all with sysv
 anymore, and since I think we still have to support sysv,
 we should fix them.
 
  Based on the above arguments, I believe that a conversion process will
  not work out. (I note that I may be wrong here.) Talking just about
  systemd and sysvinit, there is the possibility to create a .service
  interpreter to let sysvinit execute systemd .services. upstart already
  has such an interpreter. The necessary hooks in sysvinit/insserv already
  exist and are easily extensible. I therefore suggest to drop the idea of
  generating shell scripts. Also consider the amount of work required to
  fix a bug in a conversion utility compared to an interpreter. Are we
  really gonna rebuild all services (that only ship a .service file)?
 
 I would argue that if such a conversion script would exist, we can
 probably have more consistent init script implementations, and
 less bugs in them.
 
 I'm also not sure why fixing a conversion script is that much
 work.
Providing a conversion script which recreates all of systemd
functionality would basically mean reimplemting a big part of
systemd in shell. Providing an interpeter would man reimplementing
a big part of systemd in whatever the interpreter is written in.
Both options seem infeasible, unless only partial functionality is
supported. [1] lists e.g. SystemCallFilter=, PrivateTmp=, PrivateNetwork=,
CapabilityBoundingSet=, SecuritBits= which have security and
correctness implications, and are IMHO pretty hard to recreate.
