Re: unused dependencies of shared libraries
greetings, i noticed some mistake with my script as well as some varieties with ldd's output. there are many libraries with 30+ unused dependencies on my xubuntu 7.10 amd64 desktop installation (on a dell core2 laptop). here is a very much improved version of the script. its output on my machine is: $ ./s1.sh o.txt 888 of 1183 shared libraries found are sub-optimal Avg # of unused dependencies for those: 6.351 (36 weird, 6 statically linked or not dynamic) i think the script even underestimates the real number of unused dependencies (we are able to catch an unused dependency that is on a standard location like [/usr]/lib but others we dont count cuz we dont know what the path must be, if at all should be something).. thx.. ps: afaik, for most foss programs, when compiling a package from source, just adding LDFLAGS='-Wl,-O1,--as-needed' to the ./configure command eliminates unused dependencies. s1.sh Description: Bourne shell script -- Ubuntu-devel-discuss mailing list Ubuntu-devel-discuss@lists.ubuntu.com Modify settings or unsubscribe at: https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-devel-discuss

Re: Evolution spam filter not working?

For me, Evolution reports that learning spams works fine, everything is present (plugin and binaries), spamassasin is disabled, junk filtering is enabled, but spams don't get caught. I wonder about this because I did never have it working in precedent versions either, and I don't know if this is worth a bug. Maybe just clearing my user configuration would solve it - upgrading is often cause of trouble. Cheers I've run into the same problem. I've followed the advice in numerous forums, and while it will filter junk on command, it won't do it automatically. I wonder if this is a problem with the software (as opposed to the user :-). --Dane -- Ubuntu-devel-discuss mailing list Ubuntu-devel-discuss@lists.ubuntu.com Modify settings or unsubscribe at: https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-devel-discuss
Upgrading Hardy Heron 8.04 Beta to Linux kernel .16 breaks it; it won't boot.
Hi. This is my first post to this kind of list. I'm not a Linux newbie but close to it. I've been using Ubuntu for the last few years (and tried a few other versions before that), but mostly as a Typical Windows User, where I focus mostly on using the applications, not the OS. Anyway, perhaps because of that orientation, I have chosen Ubuntu and love it, and have switched all my learning efforts to applications that Ubuntu supports, e.g. Mythbuntu, StreamRipper, DVD authoring, OpenOffice (tho I'm getting real disappointed in Writer compared to M$ Word), lots more. So here's my problem report: I burned a verified ISO of Hardy Beta a couple weeks ago, and it installed flawlessly (after CD Check OK) on a new hard drive in a 5-year-old box I own, and I was using it a little with no problems on and off for a couple weeks, then last weekend it told me it had a bunch of updates (about 150 MB or 150 packages; I'm not sure) and that went flawlwssly too, and I did some more stuff and shut down normally. Now, when I power on, it appears to boot OK up to where the little orange thingie stops shuttling back and forth, and becomes a normal progress bar, then it goes about 3 jumps till it's about 15% done and then just sits there forever. So I power off and on, then choose the previous version from the GRUB menu (I think it's kernel .12 to boot OK, rather than the .16 that fails). I will be happy to send some startup logs or sys info or whatever would help, but I don't know how to get them. I can run Terminal and browse the Filesystem and Locate and install new tools via the Package Manager. So if you want me to run some command-line utility, maybe with sudo, please tell me exactly what to type and I will pipe the output to a file and send it to you or whatever will help. In general, I would like to learn what troubleshooting/diagnostic tools I should use in a situation like this, so if you want to send me some URLs to those I will learn some more.

Re: Upgrading Hardy Heron 8.04 Beta to Linux kernel .16 breaks it; it won't boot.
Hi Jim, This is something that I would recommend report a bug on at: https://launchpad.net/ubuntu From your description it sounds like it is a kernel problem, so look for the appropriate linux package. Make sure you have the latest available and then you should provide some more information in the reports. For some good ideas see: https://wiki.ubuntu.com/DebuggingProcedures and in particular: https://wiki.ubuntu.com/KernelTeamBugPolicies Things to make sure you include are the output of dmesg, lspci, and the like. You should also change your grub boot options to remove the splash so you can see the errors etc. better. This type of problem is generally better for the users list or forums. Requests and posts to this list should be more mature in nature and something that developers would or could act more directly on. Follow up questions would be better addressed by those lists as well (until the point at which it is a confirmed bug and there is a clear fix and something that should get developers attention, use your discretion on that one) Best Regards, Todd On Tue, Apr 15, 2008 at 2:01 PM, Jim and Judi Harris [EMAIL PROTECTED] wrote: Hi.

Re: Upgrading Hardy Heron 8.04 Beta to Linux kernel .16 breaks it; it won't boot.
Hey Jim, I believe that the error you are experiencing is a side effect of a fix that was comitted to workaround an issue the ALSA modules had. This fix was reverted soon thereafter. Have you attempted to boot under linux -12 kernel? try: sudo apt-get update sudo apt-get upgrade If that does not work for you then you might want to file a bug at http://launchpad.net Regards, - Juan C.
