And yes, i know about -sa or whatever it was, but it is so easy to forget. I think it would be reasonable to include the .orig with -0experimental.1 or something such uploads, or at least issue a warning about this if such a version is detected and -sa not provided.

Bug#462104: dpkg: [S-S-D] --pidfile and --retry seriously broken
Package: dpkg Version: 1.14.16 Severity: critical Quoting the changelog: * Keep checking for the process when start-stop-daemon is called with --retry even if the daemon removed the pidfile. Closes: #460903 This though broke s-s-d completely if you use --retry and --pidfile together, as now s-s-d will block for the amount of time specified by --retry, even if the process itself has stopped already. E.g. in network-manager I have start-stop-daemon --stop --retry 60 --quiet --pidfile $PIDFILE \ --oknodo --user $USER --exec $DAEMON Since 1.14.16, s-s-d will block now for 60 secs *always*, although the daemon is usually stopped withing less than a second. I'm filing with severity critical, because now an upgrade of network-manager will cause the update process to hang for 60 secs. Many users will believe that it crashed or hangs and abort the installation/upgrade. I tested this with other daemons, and e.g. added --retry 60 to /etc/init.d/ssh, which also caused the stop action to last 60 secs now.

Bug#456332: dpkg could use an elevated pre-depends or depends on lzma
Raphael Hertzog writes (Bug#456332: dpkg could use an elevated pre-depends or depends on lzma): On Tue, 18 Dec 2007, Ian Jackson wrote: IMO the lzma binary package should Provide a new virtual package name, lzma-deb-support or some such. Packages could Pre-Depend on that. What does it bring? I assume you mean why do it like that. The answer is that you don't need the lzma support in cases where it's not needed. The dependencies are more accurate. Also, see my previous comments: that dpkg should execute decompressors as subprocesses (the way it used to before doogie changed it). Decompression also takes more memory than bzip2 but with 32M for the bigger packages, I think it's okay. I have machines still in service with as little as 20Mby of RAM. Obviously they don't have the biggest packages but such memory use during decompression can be a problem. Ian. -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of unsubscribe. Trouble?

Bug#432893: Sort out these bugs
Sorry, I have just been prompted to look what happened here and it seems that my message to 432893@ was misaddressed and bounced. I wrote: Following discussions on debian-dpkg and debian-policy and in #443334, we seem to have concluded that the correct behaviour for dpkg is to not run the postinst in the confusing case. That is, if the package was halfconfigured beforehand, then the postinst should not be run in an attempt to fix it. I think it's still correct that if the package wasn't broken to start with (ie, installed or trig*), a failing dpkg --remove should put the package back the way it started - ie, it should run the postinst and if that's successful the usual rules about the meaning of successful postinst should apply (basically, the package will then be installed or perhaps trig*).

Bug#456332: dpkg could use an elevated pre-depends or depends on lzma

Packages could Pre-Depend on that. What does it bring? I assume you mean why do it like that. The answer is that you don't need the lzma support in cases where it's not needed. The dependencies are more accurate. You don't need a virtual package for that. You just need to have each package depend on the right decompressor. I would only be in favor of that if we modify dpkg to auto-generate that dependency, unfortunately right now we only know how to compress when dpkg-deb -b -Zsomething is called and this is after dpkg-gencontrol obviously.
