Bug#538716: lintian: special cases for files from GNU libc
On Sun, Sep 13, 2009 at 10:13:46PM -0700, Russ Allbery wrote: Aurelien Jarno aure...@debian.org writes: The libc6 package ships a lintian override file, as the libc binaries to not behave the same as the other normal packages. With multiarch coming, it would be nice to at least do not have an architecture specific override file. For that lintian could at lest implement special casing for the following overrides: | # ld.so must be executable, otherwise the system will not work | libc6: shlib-with-executable-bit lib/ld-2.10.1.so 0755 Will be fixed in the next release. | # It is normal that the ELF dynamic linker does not need any other library | libc6: shared-lib-without-dependency-information ./lib/ld-2.10.1.so Looks like we already got this one a while back for /lib, but not for /lib32 or /lib64. Added for the next release. | # ldconfig must be executable even when the libc is not configured, and | # thus must be linked statically | libc6: statically-linked-binary ./sbin/ldconfig Will also be fixed in the next releaes. | # pt_chown must be setuid root, otherwise non-root users won't be able | # to login | libc6: setuid-binary usr/lib/pt_chown 4755 root/root This one is a bit of a special case in that Lintian doesn't maintain any list of binaries that are expected to be setuid. The idea here is that the Lintian override is documentation that the package maintainer knows the setuid binary is there and has audited it. (Well, I see that's not entirely true since Lintian allows setuid binaries with -suid in the name and ones that are linked against the console graphics library. I wonder if we should remove those.) Thanks for all of that, I am looking forward to the next version :) BTW, while testing the modifications, I noticed that libc-bin doesn't have a versioned dependency on libc6 and that's also producing a Lintian error. I assume that's because libc6 depends on libc-bin. Should we add an exception for that as well? It's necessary because it chokes apt and aptitude from lenny to have a dependency loop (but dpkg is fine). I hope that sooner or later we can restore this dependency, so I think I'll put an override instead.

Package: lintian
Version: 2.2.14
Severity: normal
When diverting away an executable and its manpage and replacing them
with a different executable and manpage, lintian shouldn't report
diversion-for-unknown-file merely because the manual page sections differ.
An example is libmodule-corelist-perl, see #474529 and
http://lists.debian.org/debian-perl/2009/08/msg00084.html
Quoting Colin Watson in #474529:
It's almost always wrong to handle manual pages differently from
binaries in maintainer scripts - if you divert foo to foo.real, you
should also divert foo.1.gz to foo.real.1.gz. (Similarly for
alternatives.)

We were not aware of the desktop-file-validate tool int he desktop-file-utils

The error message of an invalid category was not solvable by looking up the

Lintian should indicate the nice validation tool.

Severity: normal

Hi,
I believe I'm getting a false error from lintian on one of my packages
(http://lintian.debian.org/full/norse...@ubuntu.com.html#gecko-mediaplayer).
I guess the problem is that lintian doesn't properly consider commented
out dh_quilt_* calls.
This is simply solved by anchoring the regex (quite commonly done in
all other checks AFAICS), like on the attached patch.
Cheers,

pike7.8 is finally coming, so it needs to be added to the list of known

we haven't decided whether the metapackages should be restructured (IOW the
required depencency might be something other than pike$1-core | pike$1 for
7.8).

Package: lintian
Severity: wishlist
The OCaml compiler enables linking code in various ways: most notably
bytecode and nativecode. The bytecode executables though can be linked
together with the interpreter (the so called custom mode), generating
ELF executables which can not be stripped. Since long time there is a
better alternative to that and we would like to encourage that.
As such, we would like to add a lintian check to warn against OCaml
custom mode executable. They can easily detected by looking for a magic
number at the end of the file, as described in the forwarded mail from
upstream.
Before actually providing a lintian check for that, I would like to know
from the lintian maintainers if the magic number is enough for them, or
if they consider it too prone to false positives. Please let us know.
TIA,
Cheers.

Hello Sylvain,
The solution we discussed was to find a test that can tell us what
binaries are ocamlc -custom executable. If we can find them, we can
warn packager that it should be rebuild without the deprecated option.
To detect these files we must have a very simple script, lets call it
ocaml-custom-detect. The best option is that this script will be
written using sh or perl (maybe having an ocaml executable is
also be ok, we must see what is the easiest way).
At OCaml Meeting, Xavier Leroy told me that there was a way to detect
it.
Can M. Leroy provides us with more details for detection?
Basically, a mixed bytecode/native executable produced by ocamlc -custom
is characterized by being a native executable (i.e. produced by gcc)
concatenated with a piece of OCaml bytecode, recognizable by the fact
that it has the magic number Caml1999X008 at the *end* of the file.
(The last digit of the magic number changed during the life of OCaml,
but it's been 8 since June 2004, and I don't expect it to change any
time soon. If you want to play it safe, recognize the regexp
Caml1999X0[0-9][0-9].)
So, here is a trivial implementation of the ocaml-custom-detect tool
you proposed:
#!/bin/sh
if file $1 | grep -q 'ELF .* executable' \
test `tail -c 12 $1` = Caml1999X008; then
echo $1: is a Caml bytecode/native mixed executable
exit 0
else
exit 1
fi
Once we have ocaml-custom-detect, we can:
- add a policy rules telling that building executable using -custom is
an ERROR
- provide a test for this policy rules to lintian (Debian package
policy checker)
I don't know how serious such ERRORs are. My humble opinion is that a
positive on the -custom test should be reported to the packagers and
probably to upstream as well, but is not serious enough to
e.g. prevent the package from entering stable or whatnot. Of
course, the policies are up to you Debian guys.
Best regards,
- Xavier Leroy

Package: lintian
Version: 2.2.12
Severity: wishlist
The libc6 package ships a lintian override file, as the libc binaries to
not behave the same as the other normal packages. With multiarch
coming, it would be nice to at least do not have an architecture
specific override file. For that lintian could at lest implement special
casing for the following overrides:
| # ld.so must be executable, otherwise the system will not work
| libc6: shlib-with-executable-bit lib/ld-2.10.1.so 0755
| # It is normal that the ELF dynamic linker does not need any other library
| libc6: shared-lib-without-dependency-information ./lib/ld-2.10.1.so
Note that the dynamic linker can be in /lib, /lib32 or /lib64, and is
always have the name ld-${version}.so.
It would be nice if it is also possible to get rid of those overrides,
though they are not related to the multiarch case:
| # ldconfig must be executable even when the libc is not configured, and
| # thus must be linked statically
| libc6: statically-linked-binary ./sbin/ldconfig
| # pt_chown must be setuid root, otherwise non-root users won't be able
| # to login
| libc6: setuid-binary usr/lib/pt_chown 4755 root/root

Package: lintian
Version: 2.2.13
Ubuntu allows symlinked changelog files. So please do not report
debian-changelog-file-is-a-symlink if the package is an Ubuntu package.
I tried to write a patch for it, but Perl does not like me (or the other
way round). The check rule should look like
if (-l 'changelog' !($version =~ /$UBUNTU_REGEX/ or $distribution =~
/$UBUNTU_REGEX/)) {
tag debian-changelog-file-is-a-symlink, ;
return 0;
}
but I don't know how to determine $distribution.
Cheers,
Benjamin

Package: lintian
Version: 2.2.14
Severity: wishlist
thanks for maintaining lintian.
for at least two packages i've worked on, it seems that they get
depends-on-metapackage lintian errors:
http://lintian.debian.org/tags/depends-on-metapackage.html
Packages that are not themselves metapackages must not depend on metapackages,
since this may prevent the user from removing portions of the package set they
don't need.
both education-desktop-other and ltsp-client are metapackages, or nearly so,
containing only standard /usr/share/doc files, lintian overrides (for the
predecessor to depends-on-metapackage, depends-on-x-metapackage), and i guess
education-desktop-other also contains a cdd task file. but that still confuses
me why ltsp-client is treated as a metapackage.
how does lintian determine if a package is a true metapackage?
live well,
vagrant

Package: lintian
Version: 2.2.14
Severity: normal
Hi.
I'm filing this bug as it seems that the BTS is down or unreacheable for
me (could not check if this would be a duplicate bug or not).
Anyway, while preparing a package containing Type 1 files (with the
prefix t1-*), I get the following lintian messages:
,
| I: t1-urw-garamondno8: font-in-non-font-package
usr/share/texmf/fonts/type1/urw/garamond/ugmm8a.pfb
| N:
| N:This package contains a *.ttf or *.otf file, file extensions normally
| N:used for TrueType or OpenType fonts, but the package does not appear to
| N:be a dedicated font package. (Dedicated font package names should begin
| N:with ttf- or otf-.) If the font is already packaged, you should depend
| N:on that package instead. Otherwise, normally the font should be packaged
| N:separately, since fonts are usually useful outside of the package that
| N:embeds them.
| N:
| N:Severity: wishlist, Certainty: possible
`
Instead of writing an override, I think that the proper solution would
be if lintian recognized font packages with other prefixes too.
Regards, Rogério Brito.

Package: lintian
Version: 2.2.14
Severity: wishlist
Tags: patch
Hi,
Attached is a patch that enables most of the checks in 'scripts' for scripts
shipped as examples (in /usr/share/doc/package/examples/).
It adds some new tags that mimic the 'main' tags, but are of pedantic severity.
In order to avoid clutter in the main flow, the patch adds a wrapper function,
script_tag(), which checks if the filename looks like an example and uses the
example- tag prefix if it does. This required a swap of the informational
arguments when tagging as wrong-path-for-interpreter.
I was not sure if 'pedantic' or 'info' is more suitable for Severity and
decided to err on the less annoying side :) Feel free to adjust.
Thanks for considering,
dam

Add a check for init script deps. that should be virtual
Some init scripts depend on a non-virtual facility although they should
really depend on the virtual facility that implies that non-virtual
facility.

Bug#545078: lintian: warn if symbol file contains tag but no build-dep on dpkg-dev (= 1.15.3~)
Hello, On pirmadienis 14 Rugsėjis 2009 12:44:27 Jakub Wilk wrote: * Russ Allbery r...@debian.org, 2009-09-13, 20:19: dpkg-dev 1.15.3 introduced the following change: * Support tags before symbols in symbols file contained in source packages.

Thanks to Modestas Vainius modes...@vainius.eu for the patch. See dpkg-gensymbols(1) for more information. Closes: #521551 lintian should warn if symbol file contains tags but the package does not build-depend on dpkg-dev (= 1.15.3~). The tricky part of implementing this is that currently all of Lintian's analysis of symbol files is based on the binary package, and by that point dpkg-gensymbols has already analyzed and removed the tags. Finding the symbol files in the source package is a bit trickier since they can be assembled on the fly if the package wishes to, and it would mean parsing them again. I think we can accept the possibility of false negatives in case these files are generated on the fly. Symbols in the source package should be checked anyway, because this is the only way to early catch issues in arch-specific symbol files. (Imagine one makes a typo in debian/symbols.s390 but don't have a S390 handy to check if the package is actually built correctly.) Just grep possible source symbol file templates for tag specification and warn if no strict dpkg-dev build dependency exists. Another issue is a set of supported tags (those which are acted upon, not just passed by) in the particular dpkg-dev version. More tags will probably supported in the future so it makes sense to implement a mini tag specification parser in lintian as well. What happens if a package with a symbol file using tags is built with an old version of dpkg-dev? Does the tag end up in the installed symbol file as if it were a symbol? Yes, unless a tag contains spaces, it is considered by old dpkg-dev as a part of symbol name. That is, in many cases, a package would simply FTBFS due to missing symbols... Yeah, 99% of packages will FTBFS due to #MISSING symbols when built with old dpkg-gensymbols. -- Modestas Vainius modes...@vainius.eu signature.asc Description: This is a digitally signed message part.

On Mon, 14 Sep 2009, Modestas Vainius wrote: Just grep possible source symbol file templates for tag specification and warn if no strict dpkg-dev build dependency exists. I'm not convinced that the requested check is really important (after all, it will be useless in squeeze+1 when that version of dpkg-dev can be assumed by default), but if it's implemented, then the suggestion of Modestas is fine. Another issue is a set of supported tags (those which are acted upon, not just passed by) in the particular dpkg-dev version. More tags will probably supported in the future so it makes sense to implement a mini tag specification parser in lintian as well. This part could wait until we have libdpkg-perl so that lintian can reuse the same parsing code than dpkg-gensymbols. We expect to stabilize the perl API during the squeeze timeframe. Yes, unless a tag contains spaces, it is considered by old dpkg-dev as a part of symbol name. That is, in many cases, a package would simply FTBFS due to missing symbols... Yeah, 99% of packages will FTBFS due to #MISSING symbols when built with old dpkg-gensymbols. Indeed.

version=1 = W: ancient format 1 (current is N) There's no such version=1 format, version one watch files lack the version= string. And I don't see much point regarding warning about version 2 watch files as there is no plan to deprecate it any time soon.
