Not all backups will trigger an atime update... backups based on comparing dates (as is the default in rsync, and quite typical in other backup utilities) will not poison popularity contest figures. Kernel 2.6.20's innovation, the "relatime" flag, offers more trouble. It will by default trigg

Bug#635673: popcon won't run consistently on machines that sleep at night

2011-07-27 Thread Bryce Nesbitt
Package: popularity-contest Version: trunk As configured in Debian, popularity-contest can miss sending reports. The day parameter specifies a day, but it is possible that a particular machine will be consistently asleep at that time. For example a machine in a 9-5 Monday-Friday office. Eve

This bug affected also, but the current trunk in svn uses a different method of listing packages that works. In my case all the 64 bit libraries showed the error, due to improper building of the path. -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to debian-bugs-dist-requ...@lists.debian.org with a subject of "un

Adding to this: this script adds a twice an hour cron job, even if there is no webserver running at all. This is laptop unfriendly. /etc/cron.d/php5 should also get comments, so those of us seeing "why is my laptop not sleeping" can track it down. But better yet, find a less awkward way to clea

For a patch for this issue see: http://cafbit.com/entry/gnome_terminal_friendly_clipboard_patch The presence of multiple "clipboard" selection buffers in the X Window System has long been a source of irritation with me, and I frequently end up pasting the wrong thing. The root of the problem is

The correct action in this case is almost always "delete the offending line from the known_hosts file". But really this is an upstream bug, not Debian. -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to debian-bugs-dist-requ...@lists.debian.org with a subject of "unsubscribe". Trouble? Contact listmas...@lists.debian

I can verify that editing /etc/pam.d/cron and commenting out @include common-session supresses lines like this from /var/log/auth.log: Jan 17 06:30:01 u2 CRON[26443]: pam_unix(cron:session): session closed for user production Jan 17 06:30:01 u2 CRON[26453]: pam_unix(cron:session): session opene

Bug#293272: Agree with OP

2010-01-23 Thread Bryce Nesbitt
I agree with the OP. Logging cron events here is better avoided. I often have multiple lines in each cron job, and each gets it's own auth.log line (multiple rows per second). Log spam makes it harder to monitor and extract useful information from logs. And, at the very least, this change s

Bug#556142: Move openssh-client recommendation of xauth to an X related package

2009-11-15 Thread Bryce Nesbitt
Hmm. Well: Ubuntu has a lot of case where you run a binary or command, and instead get back an error message that says you need to install the package... a nice clear error message. Never mind that this can blow up scripts that test if a binary is present... ignore that. The same base idea cou

Package: openssh-client Version: 1:5.1p1-5 openssh-client ( http://packages.debian.org/lenny/openssh-client ) recommends xauth ( http://packages.debian.org/lenny/xauth ) which brings in a lot of X libraries. Could instead those X recommendations be moved to another package that comes with X? S

Package: libdbd-pg-perl Version: 2.8.7 We're upgrading from Etch to Lenny, and have found a serious regression. Basically if pg_server_prepare is set to zero, you can no longer store characters above 127 to the database. pg_server_prepare has to be set to zero because the notoriously unstable

Bug#539365: bash completion of "cd $VARNAME" gets mangled (too smart for its own good?)

2009-07-30 Thread Bryce Nesbitt
Package: bash-completion Version: 20080705 "echo $HOM" gives "echo $HOME". "cd $HOM" gives "cd \$HOME". True in Etch and Lenny. Workaround fixes: 1) Set the shopt variable cdable_vars (but seemingly this only fixes it accidentally) 2) Run "complete -F _cd cd" 3) Run "apt-get remove bash-comp
