Bug#31352: Should be marked as wontfix?

2008-01-07 Thread Raphael Hertzog
On Mon, 07 Jan 2008, Christian Perrier wrote:
  Since the Debian project apparently intends to continue distributing

 The point is not even wanting to distribute non-free software or
 not. Even if Debian wasn't distributing non-free software (which is
 highly debatable), tools have no reason to blacklist repositories that
 do. Our priorities are our users blah blah blah.

Of course, blacklisting repositories is not something acceptable. However,
before closing this bug, it makes sense to verify that dselect doesn't
show packages in Suggests: or Recommends: if they don't exist according to
its list of packages.

That way, when non-free is not used, non-free packages are not shown,
which seems to be the right behaviour.

Package: libstdc++6
Version: 4.2.2-5
Severity: important

The latest upgrade of libstdc++6 on i386 introduced a dependency on lib64gcc1,
which in turn pulls libc6-amd64 (10Mb installed!).
As my machine is i386 i.e. 32 bit only (pentium m) I don't want to have
libc6-amd64 and lib64gcc1 installed.
I checked the Debian Changelog but couldn't find any reference why this
dependency was added. Please revert this change again.

Cheers,
Michael

Package: dpkg-dev
Version: 1.14.14
Severity: important

Hi,

dpkg-buildpackage now handles parallel builds with the following code:
if ($parallel || $ENV{DEB_BUILD_OPTIONS}) {
my $build_opts = Dpkg::BuildOptions::parse();

$parallel ||= $build_opts-{parallel};
if (defined $parallel) {
$ENV{MAKEFLAGS} ||= '';
if ($parallel eq '-1') {
$ENV{MAKEFLAGS} .=  -j;
} else {
$ENV{MAKEFLAGS} .=  -j$parallel;
}
}
$build_opts-{parallel} = $parallel;
Dpkg::BuildOptions::set($build_opts);
}

However, many packages don't support parallel building yet. I can see
two use cases for parallel builds:
(1) a developper that knows that his package builds fine in parallel,
and that uses dpkg-buildpackage -j.
(2) archive-wide rebuilds, or fast buildds.

In case (2), the current code is harmful. The safe way to do parallel
builds was to set parallel=n in DEB_BUILD_OPTIONS, so the 10 or 20
packages where parallel building is supported can use it, and all the
others will just build using one thread.

I think that the current code should be changed to:
--- dpkg-buildpackage.pl.orig   2008-01-01 23:06:39.0 +0100
+++ dpkg-buildpackage.pl2008-01-01 23:07:41.0 +0100
@@ -240,10 +240,9 @@
 warning(_g(unknown sign command, assuming pgp style interface));
 }
 
-if ($parallel || $ENV{DEB_BUILD_OPTIONS}) {
+if ($parallel) {
 my $build_opts = Dpkg::BuildOptions::parse();
 
-$parallel ||= $build_opts-{parallel};
 if (defined $parallel) {
$ENV{MAKEFLAGS} ||= '';
if ($parallel eq '-1') {


This way, dpkg-buildpackage would simply ignore parallel=n in
DEB_BUILD_OPTIONS.

An example of package that supports parallel=n but fails to build with
dpkg-buildpackage -j is glibc.

This change is very annoying: it makes it impossible for me to run
archive-wide rebuilds using parallel=n...

Package: ncurses-base
Version: 5.2.20020112a-8
Severity: normal

Hi,

Fortunately, most programs, eg, jed, slrn, mutt, tin, do use and
respect the default xterm foreground and background colors when
they are configured to use colors.

However, there are some programs which don't handle default xterm
foreground and background colors properly, eg, aptitude, dselect,
nano, etc.

Now, what is the use of having the terminfo entry for
xterm-mono, when it is not an xterm without colors?

Try setting yor TERM variable to xterm-mono and then run
dselect.  The Home and End keys become dangerous to use, and often
garbage is displayed on the screen, because the terminfo entry is
now wrong.

So, I really don't care what it is called, I just want a terminfo
entry that is just like the xterm entry, but without colors, and
unfortunately xterm-mono doesn't do this job.

Thanks,
-- 
Jeff Sheinberg

Package: ncurses-base
Version: 5.2.20020112a-8
Severity: normal

Hi,

Fortunately, most programs, eg, jed, slrn, mutt, tin, do use and
respect the default xterm foreground and background colors when
they are configured to use colors.

However, there are some programs which don't handle default xterm
foreground and background colors properly, eg, aptitude, dselect,
nano, etc.

Now, what is the use of having the terminfo entry for
xterm-mono, when it is not an xterm without colors?

Try setting yor TERM variable to xterm-mono and then run
dselect.  The Home and End keys become dangerous to use, and often
garbage is displayed on the screen, because the terminfo entry is
now wrong.

So, I really don't care what it is called, I just want a terminfo
entry that is just like the xterm entry, but without colors, and
unfortunately xterm-mono doesn't do this job.

Thanks,
-- 
Jeff Sheinberg

Package: dpkg
Version: 1.3.22
Severity: wishlist

Seen in src/archives.c:

  narglist[i++]= strdup(f);
  narglist[i++]= strdup(-print0);
  narglist[i++]= 0;
  execvp(FIND, narglist);
  ohshite(_(failed to exec find for --recursive));

The original code read:

  const char **arglist;
  ...
  arglist[i++]= f;
  arglist[i++]= -print0;
  arglist[i++]= 0;
  execvp(FIND, (char* const*)arglist);

and is more correct.

These calls to strdup are completely pointless; they should be
replaced by assignments.  Because this will cause some trouble with
const-correctness because of the char** vs const char** perennial, the
cast in the call to execvp should be reinstated.

There is no actual _harm_ in using m_strdup here (see my other report
about the lack of error checking), apart from a tiny performance
penalty and a lack of clarity in the code, so I am setting the
severity to wishlist.

Ian.

Package: dselect
Version: 1.10.4
Severity: normal

Long ago I discovered that I didn't like dselect's colors, and found
that they could easily be disabled by either using the -cm option of
xterm or setting TERM to xterm-mono.

That worked fine until recently.  Now dselect sometimes fills the screen
with garbage (like when first displaying a help screen, but it doesn't
always happen).  There is no garbage if color is enabled, but then I
have to look at the colors.

I don't know whether the bug is in dselect or in ncurses.

  the packages which depend on them, and run prerm scripts before.

The last sentence is very long and incomprehensible. The first half is 
clear (up to ...force options),) but then the author tries to explain
something about the order of certain scripts being run. 

If I denote with (a) the postinst scripts of the packages in Depends,
with (b) their prerm and (a') for the postints scripts of the package(s) 
being installed, and (b') for the prerm scripts of same packages, I
think I get as order:
(b) (a) (a') 
but I am not sure. Also this seems to be for installation, but says
nothing about upgrades (with possible new Depends:). I read 
file://localhost/usr/share/doc/debian-policy/policy.html/ch-maintainerscripts.html
to understand this, but even there this level of detail is not given
(it mainly talks about the scripts of the package being
installed/upgraded an so on, and only very little about other
packages). 

Given that this is a very complex issue, and that this is the only
place in the entire man page the postinst and prerm scripts are
mentioned at all, I suggest removing the second half of this sentence
and add an appropriate reference in the SEE ALSO section to the
debian policy or some other definitive reference. 

Alternative, you could start being more verbose also in other places
of the man page regarding these scripts, but I think this would be out
of scope here.

If you'd like a patch for this suggestion, please tell me.

I don't know why or how the udev stored PID got out of sync with the
real PID, which seems to be a bug.

But, seeing as this inconsistency can happen, it is also a bug that
udev tried to kill an arbitrary process, and didn't check that it was
a udev process (perhaps /proc/pid/exe=~/\udev\/).

Package: dselect
Version: 1.10.4
Severity: normal

Long ago I discovered that I didn't like dselect's colors, and found
that they could easily be disabled by either using the -cm option of
xterm or setting TERM to xterm-mono.

That worked fine until recently.  Now dselect sometimes fills the screen
with garbage (like when first displaying a help screen, but it doesn't
always happen).  There is no garbage if color is enabled, but then I
have to look at the colors.

I don't know whether the bug is in dselect or in ncurses.

Package: dpkg-dev
Version: 1.14.12
Severity: minor

dpkg-shlibdeps misses some symbols and thus prints warnings about not
using symbols from a library even when doing so.

When compiling xbuffy-3.3.bl.3.dfsg-5 I get the following warning:

| dpkg-shlibdeps: warning: debian/xbuffy/usr/bin/xbuffy shouldn't be
| linked with libXaw.so.7 (it uses none of its symbols).

but when I edit the binary to change the NEEDED section I get:

| $ ldd -r debian/xbuffy/usr/bin/xbuffy
| libYaw.so.7 = not found
| libXt.so.6 = /usr/lib/libXt.so.6 (0xf7eb8000)
| libX11.so.6 = /usr/lib/libX11.so.6 (0xf7db4000)
| libc.so.6 = /lib/libc.so.6 (0xf7c4)
| libSM.so.6 = /usr/lib/libSM.so.6 (0xf7c28000)

| undefined symbol: boxWidgetClass (debian/xbuffy/usr/bin/xbuffy)
| undefined symbol: commandWidgetClass (debian/xbuffy/usr/bin/xbuffy)

Thus those symbols are actually needed. (They are variables with the
object class of the widget, referencing the actual used methods as
function pointers, thus no other symbols from this library are used).

   Ok, there's no way I can duplicate or reproduce that. Once you start 
   downgrading you're moving into on your own territory.
  If this turns out to be the cause, then I think dpkg (I guess) should
  warn the user about downgrades..
 
 Downgrading has never been supported in Debian, and in the general case
 there's no way to fix a downgrade path for a package after the fact if there
 are bugs.  If I were the maintainer I would close this bug, but at the very
 least it shouldn't be listed as RC, so downgrading.

Yep, I agree, thus closing.

Hi,

$ sudo /sbin/start-stop-daemon --stop --pidfile /var/run/ser2net.pid --retry 5 
--quiet --oknodo --verbose
Stopped process in pidfile /var/run/ser2net.pid' (pid 15061).

The daemon is, however, dead since the first kill attempt killed it
successfully. s-s-d did not look at the daemon, but at the pidfile.

This is a rather common cause of grief since /lib/lsb/init-function's
killproc uses --retry 5 if no Signal is explicitly given on the
command line.

I have also filed a bug against lsb-base (#451529) for this to be
addressed in killproc as well.

Greetings

Package: dpkg
Version: 1.9.19

OK, I didn't research this problem very closely, but I wanted to at 
least report it.  I have a pretty normal woody system.  When I did an 
upgrade today, the first thing that dpkg was upgrade itself.  Then it
started segfaulting when it tried to do just about anything.

I suspect there was a conflict with the sysvinit on which dpkg depends.
My gut feeling is that sysvinit needs to be a pre-depend or something
similar to avoid problems for other people during this upgrade.

Like I said, this isn't researched and debugged but since my dpkg was
unusable for awhile I figured it needed to be reported.

It was actually an annoying experience.  How did I get around it?  I 
rebooted, ran dpkg --configure -a (as the segfault error message said)
and dpkg successfully finished the upgrade of sysvinit and has not 
segfaulted since.

  Can you show us an exact error message?
 
 Unfortunately, not any more.  I should have typescripted it but I
 didn't.
 
 I was upgrading via dselect.  Everything went fine through when dpkg
 unpacked the new dpkg.  Then it segfaulted.  I tried to run install from
 dselect again and it unpacked sysvinit and tried to update a conf file
 but then segfaulted.  I tried to run a dselect update and it segfaulted.
 It's unreproducible now on this machine.  I will try on a PPC machine I
 haven't updated in awhile.

I don't think we can do much with the little information provided in
this bug report. Also the versions involved are quite ancient. Thus
closing this report.

The purpose of this program was to fix dir files produced by ancient
and bogus install-info versions, which at the time was handling that
file under /usr/info. Also given that the switch to the GNU install-info
should be imminent, and that we'll most probably get rid of this program
on that transition, I don't see the point in making it handle the old
and new dirs. I'd say we just let it die. Thus closing this bug report.

Thanks for the patch anyway!

  The latest upgrade of libstdc++6 on i386 introduced a dependency on

  As my machine is i386 i.e. 32 bit only (pentium m) I don't want to have
  libc6-amd64 and lib64gcc1 installed.
  I checked the Debian Changelog but couldn't find any reference why this
  dependency was added. Please revert this change again.
 
 This seems to be new behaviour of dpkg-shlibdeps:

I've binNMU'd gcc-4.2_4.2.2-5 on amd64 to get rid of the lib32gcc1

Which wasn't needed anymore because it got replaced by gcc-4.3, and so
also got rejected.
