Bug#565480: Problem seems to be with pm-powersave too
Package: anacron Version: 2.3-14 Severity: important I have this same problem, but I don't think the problem lies entirely in /usr/lib/pm-utils/power.d/anacron This file gets bad information from pm-powersave which assumes that if on_ac_power returns false then the system is not on AC power. This is incorrect as, according to its man page, on_ac_power can return 255 meaning 'I don't know'. Since this usually happens when there are no power saving features in the machine it's actually very likely that it IS on AC power, whereas pm-powersave assumes it isn't. There is also a fault in power.d/anacron in that the comment says, sensibly, that we just try to run anacron every time and let it abort if there's no AC but instead of this it actually uses the parameter to decide whether to start anacron or to stop it. Stopping anacron is very different from not starting it, and the resume from hibernate process actually starts anacron (sleep.d/95anacron) and then stops it (00powersave calls pm-powersave calls power.d/anacron true) leaving a very confusing trail in the syslog! It also hard codes a second decision about whether to run anacron in powersave mode which is better handled in /etc/init.d/anacron which checks for the 255 return from on_ac_power and acts accordingly.

Bug#500690: [recoll] Problems with missing document handling packages
2008/10/16 Jean-Francois Dockes [EMAIL PROTECTED] Thanks a lot for running these tests and sending the results. It's quite reassuring that initial indexing works as expected. About later indexing passes, I had another look at how Recoll *really* works (as opposed to how I thought it worked :) ) and in fact, for file types with missing helper applications, indexing is always retried (so that it succeeds as soon as the helper is installed). Trying to execute the filters wastes quite a lot of time. This explains why the times go down after the helper is installed: the files get indexed the first time, then nothing further happens if they stay unchanged. Recoll 1.11 has been modified to work slightly differently: executing a missing filter is only tried once per indexing pass. The program then remembers the failure and doesn't retry. The files still get indexed at the first indexing pass following helper installation, and there is almost no performance penalty for missing helpers, best of both worlds (hopefully). Thanks again for prompting me to implement this well-needed change. Regards, J.F. Dockes Thank you JF, This is a great example of how flexible and reactive Open Source software can be - thank you for sharing this excellent program with us all.

2008/9/30 Jean-Francois Dockes [EMAIL PROTECTED]: Hello, Kartik Mistry writes: On Tue, Sep 30, 2008 at 6:45 PM, Peter Salisbury [EMAIL PROTECTED] wrote: I installed recoll on a fairly sparse system and it took ages to index every time. It was only when I ran it from a terminal that I realised it was missing some required packages for indexing certain types of file. Ideally a better message would be given via the UI, and/or it would skip the types of file it can't index rather than take the time to fail at runtime. But perhaps at least these extra packages could be depend/recommend/suggested by recoll. The ones I had to install were: libimage-exiftool-perl libid3-3.8.3-dev pstotext I can think of no reason why Recoll indexing should be slower when the helper programs are not installed (so I'm quite probably missing something). I do agree that missing helpers should somehow be listed in the UI when indexing finishes, this has been on the todo list for ages, the difficulty is for the implementation not to get ennoying if the user doesn't want to install them. They are listed at the end of the error/debug log, but nobody looks at this of course. Normally, file types which can't be indexed by content (no helper package) are indexed by file name the first time, and then skipped if they don't change. After installing the helper, you need a full reindex (recollindex -z) to get them indexed. If Peter can spare some time to do more testing, I'd be quite interested by the output of the following sequence: - Add loglevel = 4 to ~/.recoll/recoll.conf - Uninstall the 3 helper packages, then: time recollindex -z 2 /tmp/rcllog-znopack.txt time recollindex2 /tmo/rcllog-nopack.txt - Reinstall the 3 packages then: time recollindex -z 2 /tmp/rcllog-zpack.txt time recollindex2 /tmo/rcllog-pack.txt The log files should at least contain file names, but they might also contain data in some error cases. If no confidentiality issues prevent it, and in case the timings of the first phase are indeed longer, I'd be quite interested to have a look at them. Really excellent program which found my file in the 'safe place' where I'd lost it! Great, I'm glad that this thing can be of some use from time to time ! Cheers, J.F.

Bug#463977: libccid.rules causes udev to delay for 10s when syncing palm device
Package: libccid Version: 1.3.2-1 Severity: normal --- Please enter the report below this line. --- When upgrading libccid from 1.3.1-2 to 1.3.2-1 my Palm Treo stopped syncing. This turned out to be because the devices ttyUSB*, which are created by udev when the hotsync button is pressed, were not being created for 10 seconds. By this time the sync software on the Treo has timed out. I narrowed the effect down to /etc/udev/rules.d/libccid.rules - renaming this file or downgrading libccid to 1.3.1-2 corrects the problem. The only change to the rules file has been 8a9,14 # last file created by the kernel, if this is present everything should be WAIT_FOR_SYSFS=bInterfaceProtocol # sleep for 1s - the wait_for_sysfs might not be enough PROGRAM=/bin/sleep 1 which I don't understand but looks like it might well be causing a delay. This seems to me a problem even if it didn't break the Palm sync as a 10 second delay is enough to be confusing/annoying.
