Package: python2.4 Version: 2.4.4-3+etch1 Severity: important
After yesterday's security upgrade from python2.4-2.4.4-3+etch1 to 2.4.4-3+etch2 (CVE-2008-2315_3142_3143_3144.dpatch), my TF_Bittornado (btphptornado.py, from torrentflux, a web-based bittorrent-client) "stopped working". However, I don't have proper error messages yet, as is spawned via php-cgi, which is in turn is started from lighttpd-1.5 and nothing went to the error logs. Perhaps running lighttpd under gdb would help, if it follows its children too. If some python guru has a better idea how to debug scenarios like this, please let me know! Anyway: with 2.4.4-3+etch1 it was working fine (and it is now, after I downgraded to 2.4.4-3+etch1 again) and it stopped working with 2.4.4-3+etch2. Looking at CVE-2008-2315_3142_3143_3144.dpatch I only notice that this is quite a huge change (+1000 lines added!), rather unusual for a stable change, no? -- System Information: Debian Release: 4.0 APT prefers stable APT policy: (500, 'stable') Architecture: amd64 (x86_64) Shell: /bin/sh linked to /bin/dash Kernel: Linux 2.6.24-19-xen Locale: LANG=en_US.UTF-8, LC_CTYPE=en_US.UTF-8 (charmap=UTF-8) Versions of packages python2.4 depends on: ii libbz2-1.0 1.0.3-6 high-quality block-sorting file co ii libc6 2.3.6.ds1-13etch7 GNU C Library: Shared libraries ii libdb4.4 4.4.20-8 Berkeley v4.4 Database Libraries [ ii libncursesw5 5.5-5 Shared libraries for terminal hand ii libreadline5 5.2-2 GNU readline and history libraries ii libssl0.9.8 0.9.8c-4etch3 SSL shared libraries ii mime-support 3.39-1 MIME files 'mime.types' & 'mailcap ii python2.4-minimal 2.4.4-3+etch1 A minimal subset of the Python lan python2.4 recommends no packages. -- debconf-show failed -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe".
