Bug#305528: xscreensaver: Stop thermometer from sinking when you're typing

2005-05-02 Thread era eriksson
On Sat, 30 Apr 2005 13:59:22 -0700, Jamie Zawinski [EMAIL PROTECTED] said:
 That's not a bad idea; I've made it add 10% to the time remaining every
 time you type a key.

Thanks. I'm not convinced that's how it should work, though. How about
make it stop sinking for 3 seconds? Or start over from the top? But if
you've already considered these, and think adding 10% (I assume 1/10 of
the full height, not of the remaining height) is the best solution, I'm
not complaining or anything. :-)

 Hi,

 I'm talking with the guys at #openmsx and they say that they have a
 Debian/AMD64 user who reported that version 0.5.1 works fine on AMD64.
 I just compiled the package from source with apt-src, so it seems that
 all that's needed is to add amd64 to the list of architectures.

 On a side note, they say that this version should also work on ppc, and
 the next one on sparc and others.

Bug#307257: samba winbind 3 install not correct for squid

2005-05-02 Thread Nirina Michel
Package: samba
Version: 3.0.7-1

(1) The squid daemon run as user proxy and does not
have  access into directory
/var/run/samba/winbindd_privileged 'drwxr-x--- root
root' which IMHO should be 'drwxr-xr-x root root'. I
don't know the security issue with this. However, the
permissions of the file
/var/run/samba/winbindd_privileged/pipe is right (rwx
for everyone).

(2) After some research on the net and the squid
mailing list, I found that wb_group is no longer used
with version 3 of samba  winbind and is replaced by
wbinfo_group.pl. In the winbind package, wb_group is
still provided and wbinfo_group.pl is missing.

Bug#307259: Insecure mailbox generation due to incomplete open() call

2005-05-02 Thread Moritz Muehlenhoff
Package: passwd
Severity: normal
Tags: security

The 4.0.8 changelog points to a change with minor security implications:
| useradd: fixes a potential security problem when mailbox is created in
| useradd.
| Patch and comment by Koblinger Egmont [EMAIL PROTECTED]:
| Only two arguments are passed to the open() call though it expects three
| because O_CREAT is present. Hence the permission of the file first becomes
| some random garbage found on the stack, and an attacker can perhaps open
| this file and hold it open for reading or writing before the proper
| fchmod() is executed. (Actually, we could also pass the final mode to
| the open() call and then save the consequent fchmod().)

Bug#307260: apel: Invalid character errors

2005-05-02 Thread Boris Daix
Package: apel
Version: 10.6+0.20040418-1
Severity: normal

Hello,

Emacs-ist for two years or so, I've often been disturbed by mysterious
Invalid character: 020031, 8217, 0x2019 errors while working.
Especially, I wasn't able to use nnrss backend in Gnus, that fetches
and converts RSS streams in Gnus articles.  Now I know what makes it
fail:

/usr/share/emacs21/site-lisp/apel/poem.el:82:
(defalias-maybe 'char-or-char-int-p 'integerp)

As APEL is loaded from /etc/emacs/site-start.d/ with rank 20 (quite
normal for a library on which other stuff will rely),
char-or-char-int-p is always bound to integerp.  Gnus' nnrss.el uses
Gnus' mm-util.el, in which char-or-char-int-p is used if it exists
(char-valid-p otherwise).  But with APEL loaded, char-or-char-int-p
isn't reliable anymore...

E.g., the following sexp reproduces above error:
(message Char 8217: %c
 (if (char-or-char-int-p 8217) 8217))

I'm afraid other errors could occur with such defalias-maybe macros
loaded from poem.el (characterp, ...).  Wouldn't it be possible to
bind those predicates more precisely, or to prefix them with poem-?
Besides, why poem is loaded in case mule-ucs is available (rank 40 in
site-start.d)?

Bug#307261: kmail: IMAP email is lost when using spam filter

2005-05-02 Thread Steve Freitas
Package: kmail
Version: 4:3.3.2-3
Severity: critical
Justification: causes serious data loss


On my IMAP server, I created a subfolder under INBOX titled Spam. I
then started the anti-spam wizard, in which I told it to utilize the
spamassassin installation it found on my system. I told it Classify
messages using the anti-spam tools, and Move detected spam messages to
the selected folder. I selected the newly created Spam folder on my
IMAP server. I then selected a day's worth of email and did Apply
Filters, which caused it all to disappear. It was purged from the IMAP
server, and as far as I can tell, it's just gone. I've checked all local
and IMAP folders with no luck.

I've done no configuration of my system's spamassassin installation.

  Yes.  That is how it should look.
 
 Committed into my development tree, thanks for your input.
 
 One final question.  If you read date(1) manual page, you
 will see that 'date +%c' should display output using
 locale settings.  As date_fmt was introduced so that date
 output can be localized without this flag, I do not know
 why there are 2 fields, and maybe d_t_fmt (which is used
 with 'date +%c') has other uses.  For instance in French,
 'date' was badly broken and 'date +%c' was quite good.  
 So I decided to fix only the former, and keep the latter
 unchanged. In your language, do you believe that 'date
 +%c' is also broken, or can it be kept as it is now?

In the sense that nobody writing just barely correct Faroese
would write a date/time-stamp like that, it is definitely
badly broken.

 1) It is wrong to write abbreviations without a closing 
punctuation mark (.).

 2) The day of month is considered an ordinal number and
should thus also have a punctuation mark (.) appended.

Since we don't know the principle behind this variation, I
will suggest that we use a conservative fix, until we find
an explanation of the use of the format.

This is the most conservative change to %c, which makes 
sense in Faroese:

% LANG=fo_FO date +%a. %d. %b. %Y %H:%M:%S %Z
mán. 02. mai. 2005 09:25:48 CEST

Bug#302762: acknowledged by developer (cooledit removed)

2005-05-02 Thread A. Costa
On Sun, 01 May 2005 12:18:11 -0700
[EMAIL PROTECTED] (Debian Bug Tracking System) wrote:

 It has been closed by one of the developers, namely
 Matej Vela [EMAIL PROTECTED].
 ...
 cooledit was removed from Debian unstable in January 2004.  See
 http://bugs.debian.org/229615 for further information.

Closing unfixed bugs for all removed packages is a bad idea, and arguably 
violates Debian's Social Contract which says:

We will communicate things such as bug fixes, 
improvements and user requests to the upstream 
authors of works included in our system.

I believe I understand why closing a bugs like this is done -- nobody maintains 
them, therefore there's no Debian maintainer to forward them upstream.  Also 
Debian's BTS is used for statistics and planning, like a census; counting 
thousands, perhaps tens of thousands of orphaned bugs would create a misleading 
picture of the distro's current status.  

The problem is real; but closing all open bugs is a poor solution...

Blowback 1:  suppose package 'foo' is orphaned, and all its bugs closed.  Later 
some new maintainer adopts 'foo'.  Where are the orphaned bugs?  In the 
archive.  Some may still be valid.  The maintainer might not have the time to 
search every archived bug just to find out which were closed due to the 
package's being orphaned, and if he did have the time, it still WASTES his time 
in having to review them when the bugs simply could have been left open.  

Blowback 2:  suppose a conscientious upstream package author occasionally 
reviews various downstream package BTS's for new bugs, in case nobody 
downstream remembered or cared to report those to upstream.  Would such a 
conscientious author have time to review all the archived closed Debian bugs 
just to find the minority of still valid orphaned bugs?  Even if he would, this 
would WASTE their time -- thus violating the spirit if not the letter of 
Debian's Social Contract.

Blowback 3: User Bob finds bug #X in 'foo'.  Then 'foo' is orphaned, then 
months later adopted by a new maintainer who lacks the time to deal with 
Blowback #1.  So bug #X remains closed, even though it's not fixed.  Later user 
Betty finds the same bug in 'foo', and checks the BTS to see if its already 
been reported -- she finds nothing open, and reports it as bug #Y in 'foo'.  It 
WASTED user time to report an already reported bug.


Suggested fix:  create a new bug status between Open and Closed -- call it 
Limbo maybe.  Limbo bugs would be any bug that was Open when orphaned, or 
any bug reported after a package was orphaned.  Programs that tabulate bug 
statistics could consider Limbo bugs as Closed for most purposes.  Upstream 
maintainers and users would still see them as virtually Open for most 
purposes.  When any orphaned package was re-adopted, the Limbo bugs could be 
changed back to Open.


NB: I've noticed many such closings of other bugs before, and the maintainers 
themselves seem to WASTE a lot of their time closing 'em.  On 4/4/05 I wrote 
Colin Watson, the current BTS admin, to ask how he feels about a consequence or 
relation of this problem:

http://bugs.debian.org/cgi-bin/bugreport.cgi?bug=302814msg=9att=0

So far no reply, so I'll now reopen that bug just to keep the message in play.  
I think the whole problem of a bug is EITHER closed OR open constitutes a 
serious bug.  It wastes the time of Debian Maintainers who adopt packages, and 
Debian maintainers who close such bugs and reports, not to mentions upstream 
authors, and last and perhaps least and perhaps also most numerous, users who 
don't know about these things and mistakenly send redundant info.

Bug#249396: lsb-release: Please upload a fixed version which supports amd64

2005-05-02 Thread Andreas Jochens
severity 249396 important
thanks

Please reconsider uploading a fixed version of lsb-release which
supports the amd64 architecture.

Unfortunately, the ia32-libs package (Build-)Depends on lsb-release
and many important packages depend on ia32-libs. This includes 
the whole amd64 toolchain via libgcc1 from gcc-3.4 which Build-Depends 
on ia32-libs-dev.

The fix is very easy: 'amd64' just needs to be added to the 
'Architecture:' line in debian/control.

Bug#306820: ppp in on demand mode hangs with tcsetattr: Invalid argument error

2005-05-02 Thread David Burrows
Hi,

I am also getting this error with kernel 2.6.11.7 and dialup modem (USB
ISDN).  The problem is with persist or demand, first connection goes
through fine, reconnection fails with tcsetattr error.  I am using latest
Debian sid tree.  Downgrading ppp to version 2.4.2+20040428-6 seems to
resolve the problem.  All versions after that one have this problem.  I
did some further debugging and discovered that the first time the
connection goes around the fd is 7, the next time it goes to reconnect the
fd increases to 8.  This might be normal, I'm not sure whats going on.

Thanks for your time,

David Burrows.

Bug#305854: zope2.7: 2.7.5-2 confirmed

2005-05-02 Thread Balazs Ree
Package: zope2.7
Version: 2.7.5-2
Followup-For: Bug #305854


Andrea,

the 2.7.5-2 solves the current problem

I have run the tests this way: changed dir to my instance dir,
(/var/lib/zope2.7/instance/default) and did a bin/zopectl test.
All works right for me.

I think you received 0 tests run because the directory where
it looks for tests to run must be given by the --libdir parameter,
or by default it is under the current directory. If you do not
give --libdir and you are in the wrong place, this is what happens.

And thanks for solving this. (BTW, I don't think this change 
could break anything, unless someone would want to manually 
symlink test.py out to some other location and run it from there,
but as the designated way is now to run test.py via zopectl,
this should not be a big worry. IMO.)

Balazs Ree

Bug#297810: just my 2 cents...

 I don't follow all the detail of the discussion above, all I can say
 that it's very counter-intuitive to apt-get install the plone package,
 then have to make your own zope instance (at least you're told you need
 to do this) and then log in to http://localhost:9673/manage to discover
 that there is no Plone site product to add :-(
 
 Why not uncomment the Debian specific
 # products /usr/lib/zope2.7/lib/python/Products

This can't be done by default. After sarge release, we (the Debian Zope
Team, I mean) will introduce a new layout for zope setup which will
handle this issues. Such a change can't be made before the release.

Thanks for your suggestion,

Bug#307265: cvs: man page includes too many blank lines

2005-05-02 Thread Michael Wardle
Package: cvs
Version: 1:1.12.9-13
Severity: minor

The cvs(1) manual page contains far too many redundant new lines.
Paragraphs are mostly separated by two blank lines, rather than the
customary one, and as many as six blank lines appear in places.

This differs from the usual manual format and means less information
than usual can be displayed on one screen.  This is symptomatic of
authors who are unfamiliar with nroff and troff, as the section and
paragraph macros (such as .SH and .PP) already create their own new
lines to separate paragraphs.

Perhaps the author has his MANPAGER or LESS environment variable set
such that the -s option is in use and redundant new lines are squeezed
into one new line.  In any case, I would hope the problem will be
resolved.

Bug#307264: info bash has too many blank lines

2005-05-02 Thread Michael Wardle
Package: bash
Version: 2.05b-26
Severity: minor

Each link (text preceeded by * indicating a link to another document) is
separated by a blank line, giving the appearance of double-spaced lines.

This is unnecessary, causes less information to appear on the screen at
once, is unlike many other TeXinfo documents (such as CVS's), and in my
opinion makes the document more distracting and difficult to read.

Bug#307266: debconf can't work properly

2005-05-02 Thread Michael Tautschnig
Package: fai
Version: 2.8.1

FAI currently expects a package that should be configured using debconf whilst
being installed/updated by FAI to use the values from the debconf-db, set via
debconf-set-selections. Although this is a sensible approach, many packages
fetch their default values from some configuration file or the template-file,
which is sensible too. This results in packages being configured to something
else than the FAI-user expected.

I'm working on a solution, but meanwhile I file this bug to inform other users
about this possibly unexpected behaviour.

Regards,
Michael

Bug#305672: usbmount: flashdisk not mounted

2005-05-02 Thread Peter Stelmachovic
Hi,
I am sending the output of user.log after applying the patch.
P.S. I have noticed that the same problem occurs if the device is 
plugged into USB1 port
(different pc with debian stable - no usbmount, no udev, kernel 2.4 but 
a simple script to automatically mount the flashdisk when plugged in. 
Again the disk cannot be mounted immediately but the script needs to 
wait for some time before  mounting a partition on the disk). With other 
devices (flashdisks) that I  have tried nothing like that was needed.

I have tried two devices of this type and both have had the same problem.

Bug#128818: gzip and ed stuff

2005-05-02 Thread Robert Lemmen
hi folks,

i had a look at the patch above and have some suggestions and questions:

- the zcat part should be done by the apt-internal method, using the
  library directly in the ed part or somewhere else spoils apt's design.
  as far as i can see this should be easy
- the big question is how to implement the ed part. it would be most
  natural to make it a mathod as well, but i don't think this is
  reasonable as normal methods take one argument and prduce one file,
  where the ed part would need two arguments (the original and the
  patch) and produce one file. of course this could be coded into the
  url, but that's ugly. so should i just create a method that takes the

perhaps some of the people who are closer to the design of apt could

 Works for me. Do you use a GTK theme ? That very much looks like a
 broken theme engine. Try with another theme, or none.

 That was my first thought; tried about 6 different themes with no luck.

Then please try without any theme at all.

Bug#307275: phpmyadmin: upgrade breaks included conffiles from other packages

2005-05-02 Thread Jelmer Jaarsma
Package: phpmyadmin
Version: 4:2.6.2-1
Severity: important

Upon the upgrade of phpmyadmin the apache2.conf was rewritten to only
include *.conf files from the conf/ subdir. Other packages such as
gallery and amavis-stats put a symlink there to include their config
file but they do not end in .conf. As a result their config files will
be ignored.

Bug#306530: powernowd: stuck at lower freq

2005-05-02 Thread Steve Langasek
Hi Bdale,

 severity 306350 important
 thanks

 This bug report does not merit the severity 'grave' in the Debian BTS.  In
 fact, I'm not yet convinced this is a bug in powernowd at all.

Is this still your assessment?  (The severity change didn't take.)

Bug#307188: [Pkg-octave-devel] Bug#307188: octave-gpc: FTBFS: no match for 'operator[]' in '*m[vertices]'

 Package: octave-gpc

 When building 'octave-gpc' on i386/testing,
 I get the following error:

 The newer version 0.1.5-4 in sid builds fine.

Well, it is not octave-gpc's fault if its newest version is not in sarge
yet.  According to http://bjorn.haxx.se/debian/testing.pl?package=octave-gpc,
we have:

# trying to update octave-gpc from 0.1.4-1 to 0.1.5-4 (candidate is 60 
  days old)
# octave-gpc is waiting for gpcl
  * gpcl is not yet built on alpha: 2.31-5 vs 2.32-1 (missing 2 binaries: 
libgpcl-dev, libgpcl0)
  [...]
  
gpcl is in non-free and octave-gpc is in contrib.  How could this problem
be fixed?

Bug#307281: quagga has to depend on real packages first

2005-05-02 Thread Holger Levsen
package: quagga
severity: serious
Version: 0.98.3-1

Hi,

When installing quagga with aptitude install quagga, the amd64-kernel gets
also installed. But the server is plain i386. Installing quagga with apt-get 
works just fine. So I asked Daniel Burrows, the aptitude maintainer, if this 
is a known bug in aptitude. 
He replied This is a bug in quagga, which violates policy 7.4 (last 
paragraph) by not listing a real package first in its dependency on 
kernel-image.  It doesn't show up in apt-get because apt-get doesn't honor 
Recommends.

Holger

 Hi Daniel, hi list,

 should I file a bug against aptitude ? (I have not checked all the 115
 normal bugs against aptitude...) IMHO this is serious, as it installs a
 non-working kernel (a amd64-kernel on i386), which renders the system
 unusable.

 Is there a aptitude mailing-list or such ? Or only debian-devel or rather
 debian-dpkg ?

  The same when not installing quagga via fai: after the install aptitude
  would install amd64-kernel and apt-get not. So this is not a fai bug, but
  a aptitude bug, i think. But I wanted to let you know.

Bug#306533: causes wine (and probably others) to FTBFS

2005-05-02 Thread Steve Langasek
severity 306533 important
thanks

It looks like the real problem here is that nvidia-glx diverts copies of
libGL.so.* in both /usr/lib and /usr/X11R6/lib, but then only installs a
replacement in /usr/lib.  Mimicking the behavior of xlibmesa-gl-dev itself
by installing symlinks in the other directory should fix this bug.

A bad bug, but since there's a workaround and it's not a problem in
autobuilder environments anyway, I don't think it's RC.  A FTBFS here is
arguably much better than a misbuilt that causes a package in main to have a
tangled dependency on the nvidia version of libGL...

Cheers,

Bug#220170: csh: strange behavior with quotes and special character *

2005-05-02 Thread Philippe BEUDAERT
Hi,
I've found a strange behavior with csh like the one describes in this 
bug report.

The version of csh I used is: csh_20020413-1 (the problem is still the 
same with csh_20050313-1)

The output of an echo command is strange when quotes (single or 
double) are used with the * special character:

* without quoting, output is OK:
$ echo hello .cshrc
hello .cshrc
$ echo hello .cshrc*
hello .cshrc .cshrc_save
* with quotes, output is wrong if a * is used:
 $ echo 'hello' .cshrc
hello .cshrc
$ echo  'hello'  .cshrc*
\h\e\l\l\o  .cshrc  .cshrc_save
NB: I've tested that command under other OS:
* solaris 8
$ echo 'hello' .cshrc*
hello .cshrc .cshrc_save
* RHEL AS 3 (csh comes from tcsh-6.12-4)
$ echo 'hello' .cshrc*
hello .cshrc .cshrc_sav
Thanks a lot for your help!
Regards,
Philippe.

Actually, the build should _fail_ in that case and not continue to

Package: gnome-ppp
Version: 0.3.21-1

The Auto reconnect option under Setup-Options is not working for me 
anymore. I have tried unselecting it and closing the program then 
restarting and selecting it again, but that does not seem to help. This 
did work for me previously.

I think a new version of Gnome-PPP went in recently (I saw it was not in 
testing for a while) but this might also have been me playing about with 
the config files that say do not play with these files. I had thought 
I did not save any changes, but if you can't reproduce the bug then it's 
probably my fault, sorry :(

 When installing quagga with aptitude install quagga, the amd64-kernel gets

 works just fine. So I asked Daniel Burrows, the aptitude maintainer, if this 
 is a known bug in aptitude. 
 He replied This is a bug in quagga, which violates policy 7.4 (last 
 paragraph) by not listing a real package first in its dependency on 
 kernel-image.  It doesn't show up in apt-get because apt-get doesn't honor 
 Recommends.

Typically, one doesn't depend on kernel-images at all, because satisfying
this dependency (or Recommends:) does not ensure a running kernel of that
version.

Anyway, this is not a release-critical issue for sarge.

Bug#307289: openvpn: Please do stop on upgrade

2005-05-02 Thread John Summerfield
Package: openvpn
Version: 2.0-1
Severity: normal



For security reasons (and for ease of access to the whole LAN) I
regularly connect to remote systems over a vpn.  This is how I normally
connect when doing system maintenance. Likely, I update software on
several systems at once.

When openvpn stops it means my session is terminated and I can't see
what has happened. Potentially this leaves me with a broken system and
the need to visit affected sites. If the sites were more remote (a mate
maintains systems on the other side of the Indian Ocean) I'd need local
hired help.

I am not sure what's best for all, but I'd settle for just leaving
openvpn running. In all probability it will work just fine.

The current situation is untenable.

Too bad that aptitude does not ask something like Package quagga
recommends 'kernel-image-2.4' which is provided by the following packages,
please decide if you want to install one or more of them:.

With the current situation I can only remove the Recommends line as

Therefore I also clone this report as a wishlist bug against aptitude.

Bug#259696: Not quite fixed (wrt footbib)

2005-05-02 Thread Martin Quinson

Hello,

the version of footbib you reincluded into tetex-extra does not work with
the 3.0 tetex...

In attachement, an updated version I got from the author (the error message
said to contact him, and he happen to work in the same building than me).

He (naturally) granted me to forward this to howeven I need to get this
properly distributed.

I've no idea of how to forward it to upstream, unfortunatelly. I hope you do
:)

Thanks for your time,
Mt.

Bug#307242: rsync: replaces non-ASCII character with '??' in verbose mode

2005-05-02 Thread Paul Slootman
On Mon 02 May 2005, Per Andersson wrote:
 
 I've used two identical Sarge systems, both using UTF-8.
 
 Using rsync (over ssh), syncing (or listing the contents) from one
 system to the other, non-ASCII characters get replaced with '??', eg:
 
   [EMAIL PROTECTED]:~$ rsync system2:~/test_åäö_test
   drwxr-xr-x  72 2005/05/02 02:39:30 test_??_test
 
 The result above is new since version 2.6.4-2 and makes logs from
 backup-scripts (using rsync) almost unreadable when lots of files and
 directories with, in my case swedish, non-ASCII character are being processed.

This is related to bug #242300, see
http://bugs.debian.org/cgi-bin/bugreport.cgi?bug=242300

I'll look in to an extra format option for --log-format that will give
the raw filename, as I don't expect a 2.6.5 that soon.

Gallery's postinst doesn't restart Apache2 after package configuration.

Bug#307295: shorewall: Please guarantee a working firewall after upgrade

2005-05-02 Thread John Summerfield
Package: shorewall
Version: 2.2.3-1
Severity: normal


I maintain the software on several systems remotely, connecting over
they Internet.

I am concerned that one day an upgrade to shorwall will leave me with a
broken firewall and the need to visit the site or worse, find local
hired help.

Ideas that come to mind:
Use alternatives to choose the active version. This should be in manual
mode. Store config files in version-dependant directories -
/etc/shorewall22 etc.

Use iptables-save to save a working firewall script and make this the
default, to be changed at a time of the sysadmin's choosing.

This is quite a serious concern to me; I've been cracked and my firewall
rules are part of my plan to limit (by IP address range) locations from
which connexions can be made to sensitive services.

Bug#305672: usbmount: flashdisk not mounted

2005-05-02 Thread Martin Dickopp
On Mon, May 02, 2005 at 11:13:13AM +0200, Peter Stelmachovic wrote:
 I am sending the output of user.log after applying the patch.

Hi,

Thank you for the quick reply. I have once again a patch for you. :-)
This should fix the issue, so it is hopefully the last patch I have to
ask you to try. Please let me know if it really fixes the issue.

 P.S. I have noticed that the same problem occurs if the device is 
 plugged into USB1 port
 (different pc with debian stable - no usbmount, no udev, kernel 2.4 but 
 a simple script to automatically mount the flashdisk when plugged in. 
 Again the disk cannot be mounted immediately but the script needs to 
 wait for some time before  mounting a partition on the disk).

It appears that the device reports itself ready (i.e. 'cat
/sys/block/sdc/device/state' returns 'running') before it really is.
My proposed fix therefore tries to read from the device and only
continues if this succeeds (or gives up after 20 seconds).

Cheers,
Martin

 Ferenc Wagner [EMAIL PROTECTED] writes:

 And really,

 That's what I suspected. The fix would be simple (call `set-file-modes´
 only when `file-modes´ returns non-nil).

 Nevertheless, I'm curious to know why (file-modes diag.txt) returned
 nil. Could you, please, give me the full Tramp file name of
 diag.txt? Mainly, I'm interested in the access method.

 Sure: /ssh:csoki:/home/wferi/anulus_reports/diag.txt

 The remote machine is FreeBSD 5.3-STABLE, btw.

 Still strange. `file-modes' should always return a valid value in the
 ssh case.

I don't quite get it.  `file-modes' is a primitive, is Tramp
invasive enough to deceive it?  Eh, nevermind.

 But so what, I've fixed your initial problem in Tramp CVS. If you want
 to test it yourself you might apply the appended patch to tramp.el
 (note that there are other fixes since Tramp 2.0.48, too). The fix will
 be included in Tramp 2.0.49.

Thanks a lot, I applied the patch, which seems to work wonderfully.

Bug#307297: blogtk: Hard to get started

2005-05-02 Thread Mark Brown
Package: blogtk
Version: 1.0-1.1
Severity: normal

The account user interface for blogtk is quite hard to get started with.
There are a number of issues:

 - There is no indication provided as to what would be a suitable URI to
   supply.  It appears that the URI of the XML RPC server is required
   rather than something like the root of the blog itself.
 - It is not possible to check that the settings are valid from within
   the account selection dialog.
 - When an attempt to connect to the server from the file menu fails the
   only indication of error is a message in the bar at the bottom of the
   window saying that an error occurred.  It would be useful if this
   error message were both more obvious and more verbose about what the
   error was (for example, indiciating if it was a 404, a permission
   denied message or similar).

An interface more like that for the gnome-blog panel applet might work
better: it explicitly says it wants the XML RPC address and provides a
mechanism for attempting to connect to the server as part of the dialog
(by virtue of having a lookup blogs option).

Problem occured after upgrading:

twiki 20040902-1.1 - 20040902-3
apache2-common 2.0.53-5 - 2.0.54-2
(other packages were also upgraded at the same time, complete list below)

Perl v5.8.4
Linux twiki 2.4.25 #1 SMP Fri Mar 5 10:32:46 EST 2004 i686 GNU/Linux
libc6 version 2.3.2.ds1-21

Problem description
---

Immediately after upgrading Apache and TWiki as described above we 
started getting this error:

Insecure dependency in exec while running with -T switch at 
/usr/share/perl5/TWiki.pm line 3454.

Whenever we clicked the Diffs link on a TWiki topic.

The problem seems to start on line 378 of /usr/share/perl5/TWiki/UI/RDiff.pm

  my $rev1 = $query-param( rev1 );

At this point rev1 (and rev2) are tainted.

On line 410 (411 for rev2) they are run through a regexp:

  $rev1 =~ s/r?1\.//go;  # cut 'r' and major

but it does not seem sufficient to untaint them.

Changing the line to something like:

 ($rev1) = $rev1 =~ /r?1\.(\d*)/;  # cut 'r' and major

does work.

 Please do not close this bug; instead, reassign to the set of packages
 excluding your (fixed) package.

Oh, no, that's a nightmare; just clone the bug and let each package
close theirs.

 The QA web page [0] indicates that these packages do not have manual
 pages for at least one of their binaries.

There are probably many more packages which have the some problem.  I
don't think filing bug reports on all of them helps (unless you
include a man page).

Bug#306773: Please support UTF8/Unicode

 Last week I looked at the python-id3lib code a bit (for the purpose of
 adding UTF8 support to Jack) and came to the conclusion that IMHO it
 would be better to drop python-id3lib in favor of python-eyed3.
 
 The upstream python-id3lib package seems to be unmaintained and the
 underlying libid3 library itself also seems to have a plethora of open
 bugs, several of which related to UTF8.  The python-eyed3 library on the
 other hand seems to be well maintained and UTF8-aware.  Porting an
 application from python-id3lib to python-eyed3 is quite easy.
 
 So, in this respect I prefer to spend my time porting Jack (and if
 requested also other rdepends on python-id3lib) to python-eyed3 than
 fixing python-id3lib itself.
 
 Hope you understand...

I do understand - and agree that it sounds most sane to abandon
python-id3lib.

It seems only pytone, quodlibet and rbscrobbler rdepends on
python-id3lib. I would appreciate your help patching those packages to
switch to using python-eyed3 instead, so that python-id3lib can be
dropped completely.

I have now cloned this bugreport to the relevant packages.

Bug#307286: cupsys-driver-gimpprint: apt-get upgrade fails

-BEGIN PGP SIGNED MESSAGE-
Hash: SHA1

Martin Lutz [EMAIL PROTECTED] writes:

 Package: cupsys-driver-gimpprint
 Version: 4.2.7-9
 Severity: grave
 Justification: renders package unusable

 apt-get upgrade fails

Are you updating an existing testing installation, or upgrading from
woody, or installing the package for the first time?

If you are upgrading testing, when did you last do a full upgrade?

 We get the following error message:

 Setting up cupsys-driver-gimpprint (4.2.7-9) ...
 Can't use an undefined value as filehandle reference at
 /usr/sbin/cups-genppdupdate line 95.

I can't reproduce this myself:

  Unpacking replacement cupsys-driver-gimpprint ...
  Setting up cupsys-driver-gimpprint (4.2.7-9) ...
  Updated /etc/cups/ppd/c60.ppd using 
/usr/share/cups/model/gimp-print/4.2/escp2-c60.ppd.gz
  Updated 1 PPD files.  Restart cupsd for the changes to take effect.
  Restarting Common Unix Printing System: cupsd.

This is the code in question:

   91   # Find all in-use Gimp-Print PPD files...
   92
   93   my @ppdglob = glob($ppd_dir/*.{ppd,PPD});
   94   if (@ppdglob) {
   95   open PPDFILES, '-|', 'grep', '-i', '-l', 'Gimp-Print', @ppdglob or 
die can't grep $ppd_dir/*: $!;
   96   while (PPDFILES) {
   97   chomp;
   98   push @ppd_files,  $_;
   99   }
  100   close PPDFILES or ($! == 0) or die can't close grep pipe: $!;
  101   }

In your case, PPDFILES is undefined, but it's not clear why.

Is the grep package installed?

If you apt-get install cuspsys-driver-gimpprint, do you get the
error again?

As root, what does ls -l /etc/cups/ppd show?


Thanks,
Roger

Bug#306981: rsync -b --sufix does not keep a copy of deleted files

2005-05-02 Thread Paul Slootman
On Fri 29 Apr 2005, Jaume Guasch wrote:
 
 With (old) rsync 2.6.3-2 I used the following options to syncronize
 different computers:
 
 DATA=`date '+%Y-%m-%d'`
 RSYNCGET=rsync -abxHzu --progress -v --suffix=.~${DATA} --exclude=*.a 
 --exclude=*.o  --exclude=*~*  --exclude=*.exe --exclude=.nfs* 
 --exclude=msg.* --exclude=lock --exclude=*\# --exclude=.\#* 
 --exclude=Backup --exclude=pine-bin.linux --delete --delete-after -e 
 ssh   

Is this the exact line from the script? This looks suspicious, as the
command is enclosed in double quotes, but the command also uses
unescaped double quotes which hence will not be put into the variable
$RSYNCGET.

 ${RSYNCGET} server:dir dir 

This becomes:

rsync -abxHzu --progress -v --suffix=.~2005-05-02 --exclude=*.a --exclude=*.o 
--exclude=*~* --exclude=*.exe --exclude=.nfs* --exclude=msg.* --exclude=lock 
--exclude=*# --exclude=.#* --exclude=Backup --exclude=pine-bin.linux --delete 
--delete-after -e ssh server:dir dir

You're probably lucky that because of the --suffix= prefix, the * won't
be expanded (as it doesn't match anything).

Note also that -e ssh is redundant.

 This makes a full copy, and leaves a backup copy of every changed and 
 deleted file in the client, with a name which contains the date 
 of the transfer. 
 
 Since I installed 2.6.4, the same command does not perform the
 same:
 
 If a file is deleted in the server, it will be deleted in the client,
 WITHOUT leaving a backup copy.
 
 Expected behaviour: a backup copy should be left in the client

I've confirmed this, and have filed a bug against the upstream source.
Upstream is usually very quick with fixes for these matters. I'll upload
a fixed version as soon as the fix is available.

Hi,
Thank you for the quick reply. I have once again a patch for you. :-)
This should fix the issue, so it is hopefully the last patch I have to
ask you to try. Please let me know if it really fixes the issue.
 

P.S. I have noticed that the same problem occurs if the device is 
plugged into USB1 port
(different pc with debian stable - no usbmount, no udev, kernel 2.4 but 
a simple script to automatically mount the flashdisk when plugged in. 
Again the disk cannot be mounted immediately but the script needs to 
wait for some time before  mounting a partition on the disk).
   

It appears that the device reports itself ready (i.e. 'cat
/sys/block/sdc/device/state' returns 'running') before it really is.
My proposed fix therefore tries to read from the device and only
continues if this succeeds (or gives up after 20 seconds).
Cheers,
Martin

Bug#307306: debian-installer: Uses 2.6.10 kernel on amd64.

2005-05-02 Thread Kurt Roeckx
Package: debian-installer
Version: 20050317
Severity: important

Hi,

It seems that the debian-installer package is getting build with
a 2.6.10 kernel on amd64.  Could you please change the
KERNELVERSION to 2.6.8-10-amd64-generic in config/amd64.cfg?

Note that the 2.6.10 kernel was only in svn for a short time and
that seems to have made it in the packaged version.

Bug#303024: Who should be maintaining kernel-patch-powerpc-{2.4.27,2.6.8}?

2005-05-02 Thread Andrew Pollock
Hi Sven,

You've orphaned kernel-patch-powerpc-2.4.27 and kernel-patch-powerpc-2.6.8,
and I'm a bit confused by the text of #303024 and #303021

Who in your mind should be listed as the maintainer of these packages if not
either yourself or the Debian Kernel Team?

They've been orphaned for nearly a month, and they're at the top of the list
of packages that need to be uploaded with their maintainer set to the QA
group, but this doesn't seem to be the right thing to happen in my mind.

regards

Andrew

A more user-friendly approach would be to symlink /usr/share/doc/emacs21* to

  ...
  cooledit was removed from Debian unstable in January 2004.  See
  http://bugs.debian.org/229615 for further information.
 
 Closing unfixed bugs for all removed packages is a bad idea, and
 arguably violates Debian's Social Contract which says:
 
   We will communicate things such as bug fixes, 
   improvements and user requests to the upstream 
   authors of works included in our system.
 
 I believe I understand why closing a bugs like this is done -- nobody
 maintains them, therefore there's no Debian maintainer to forward them
 upstream.  Also Debian's BTS is used for statistics and planning, like
 a census; counting thousands, perhaps tens of thousands of orphaned
 bugs would create a misleading picture of the distro's current status.  
 
 The problem is real; but closing all open bugs is a poor solution...
 
 Blowback 1:  suppose package 'foo' is orphaned, and all its bugs
 closed.  Later some new maintainer adopts 'foo'.  Where are the
 orphaned bugs?  In the archive.  Some may still be valid.  The
 maintainer might not have the time to search every archived bug just
 to find out which were closed due to the package's being orphaned, and
 if he did have the time, it still WASTES his time in having to review
 them when the bugs simply could have been left open.  
 
 Blowback 2:  suppose a conscientious upstream package author
 occasionally reviews various downstream package BTS's for new bugs, in
 case nobody downstream remembered or cared to report those to
 upstream.  Would such a conscientious author have time to review all
 the archived closed Debian bugs just to find the minority of still
 valid orphaned bugs?  Even if he would, this would WASTE their time --
 thus violating the spirit if not the letter of Debian's Social
 Contract.
 
 Blowback 3: User Bob finds bug #X in 'foo'.  Then 'foo' is orphaned,
 then months later adopted by a new maintainer who lacks the time to
 deal with Blowback #1.  So bug #X remains closed, even though it's not
 fixed.  Later user Betty finds the same bug in 'foo', and checks the
 BTS to see if its already been reported -- she finds nothing open, and
 reports it as bug #Y in 'foo'.  It WASTED user time to report an
 already reported bug.

Packages are only removed after a while really nobody showed any
interest in them. The bugs are archived, so any interested party can
look them up.
 
 Suggested fix:  create a new bug status between Open and Closed --
 call it Limbo maybe.  Limbo bugs would be any bug that was Open
 when orphaned, or any bug reported after a package was orphaned.
 Programs that tabulate bug statistics could consider Limbo bugs as
 Closed for most purposes.  Upstream maintainers and users would
 still see them as virtually Open for most purposes.  When any
 orphaned package was re-adopted, the Limbo bugs could be changed
 back to Open.

Orphaned package's bugs are not closed, only when the package is really
purged from the archive, this happens. The amount of those bugs simply
does in no way warrant an extra state.
 
 NB: I've noticed many such closings of other bugs before, and the
 maintainers themselves seem to WASTE a lot of their time closing 'em.
 On 4/4/05 I wrote Colin Watson, the current BTS admin, to ask how he
 feels about a consequence or relation of this problem:

 So far no reply, so I'll now reopen that bug just to keep the message
 in play.  I think the whole problem of a bug is EITHER closed OR
 open constitutes a serious bug.  It wastes the time of Debian
 Maintainers who adopt packages, and Debian maintainers who close such
 bugs and reports, not to mentions upstream authors, and last and
 perhaps least and perhaps also most numerous, users who don't know
 about these things and mistakenly send redundant info.

Debian isn't a collection place for *all* bugs in the GNU/Linux world.
As the social contract says, we'll do our best to inform upstream
authors etc, and we specificly won't ever delete a bug report, but once
a bug is closed, it's no longer relevant for Debian, and it'd be much
overkill to spend a lot of time on things that most likely are never
looked up again. Debian is a volunteer organisation, if a maintainer
fails to forward requests to upstream, who can do it? QA is already way
understaffed with actually fixing bugs, and apparantly (the package is
orphaned) nobody else is really interested.

Please forward requests you care about yourself to upstream if you find
it important enough to spend your time on.

Bug#264069: PHP/WebApp policy/mailing list

Definitely.
 
 Here is the name that sounds to be the good one, according to this thread:
 
 [EMAIL PROTECTED]

Seconded. Fwiw, I don't see this as a temporary list, webapplications
are *growing* in use, and there's a lot of trickyness involved that
isn't well document/standard at all compared to a regular package with
some data files, libraries and a few binaries.
 
 We have to find a correct description for the list, let me give you a 
 first try:
 
 Coordination for web application maintenance and Debian Webapp
 Policy issues.

Coordination and discussion for web application packaging.

I wouldn't even mention the policy in the description, it's of course
part of it, but not the main focus IMHO - it's just a logical
conclusion that this discussion should be on debian-webapps then.

Bug#303024: Who should be maintaining kernel-patch-powerpc-{2.4.27,2.6.8}?

 Hi Sven,
 
 You've orphaned kernel-patch-powerpc-2.4.27 and kernel-patch-powerpc-2.6.8,
 and I'm a bit confused by the text of #303024 and #303021
 
 Who in your mind should be listed as the maintainer of these packages if not
 either yourself or the Debian Kernel Team?

The debian kernel team will handle most stuff in the kernel-source package
itself, and i have arranged a powerpc pegasos box for simon horms, who should
be back in a week or two, and he will do the actual builds of the kernels. I
will help with the .config maintenance, as best i can, but all this should
really be automated, since the only thing needed is a rebuild in case a new
kernel-source is released.

 They've been orphaned for nearly a month, and they're at the top of the list
 of packages that need to be uploaded with their maintainer set to the QA
 group, but this doesn't seem to be the right thing to happen in my mind.

I don't intent to do an upload with QA as kernel ackages are in deep freeze,
and affect d-i and stuff.

Furthermore the maintainers are already marked as the kernel maintainer team,
so ...

No off to the airport, see you in two days or so ...

Friendly,

Sven Luther

Bug#295728: Debian package for peercast..

 hi!
 
 I send you an email because you are maintaining icecast-server or icecast2.
 
 I have made a package for the P2P streaming server peercast -
 www.peercast.org - , using mainly icecast-server package as backbone.
 
 Then I have asked for a sponsor at debian mentors, but could not get any, so
 I'm asking you as I hope this package can interest you.
 
 All the stuff is located at:
 http://www.cti.ecp.fr/~beauxir5/debian
 an can be included as a repository:
 deb http://www.cti.ecp.fr/~beauxir5/debian binary/
 deb-src http://www.cti.ecp.fr/~beauxir5/debian source/
 
 Any remark, comment would be welcome.

I do not want to sponsor your package, but I am willing to temporarily
adopt the package until you become an official Debian maintainer.

I consider package sponsoring to be broken - a bad hack that should
never have been invented. You are most welcome to help out maintaining
the package while waiting in the new-maintainer queue: file good
bugreports with your suggested improvements to the package. If you want
to provide proof of your packaging skills then do local packaging and
attach the .diff.gz file from your local package to the bugreport you
file requesting improvements - and point your DAM to those fine
bugreports of yours indicating perfection in the skill of packaging.

I am aware that adopting your package instead of sponsoring it for you
will not get you points for getting into Debian. I relly want more
people into Debian, but I believe it to be stupid that knowing someone
already inside of Debian (or persuade someone unknown) to sponsor you
gets you raises your chances of getting in is fundamentally wrong.

I believe packages are best maintained by those the package maintainance
scripts was build for, and has access to all communication about the
Debian project, including the secret (and too active IMHO) mailinglist
[EMAIL PROTECTED] .


See http://bugs.debian.org/112118 for a similar discussion.


Kind reagards,

 - Jonas


P.S.

I cc'ed this email to the relevant bugreport as well, for the record
(literally).
