Bug#1006754: theli tries to use swarp from suckless-tools instead of SWarp from swarp

2022-03-04 Thread Yann Vernier

Package: theli
Version: 3.1.3-1
Severity: important

Dear Maintainer,

I tried installing theli on Debian unstable. Upon running the program,
it immediately reports swarp is the wrong version. Checking the swarp
package, Debian has renamed that program from swarp to SWarp, to avoid
collision with the suckless-tools program named swarp.

I reckon the appropriate thing to do in the Debian package, particularly
as swarp is a dependency, is to make the similar change to call the
correct program in theli as well.

As a workaround, it is possible to make a directory with a lower case
symlink and add it to PATH to run theli, e.g.:

$ mkdir ~/theli-bin
$ ln -s /usr/bin/SWarp ~/theli-bin/swarp
$ PATH=~/theli-bin:$PATH theli &

It is also possible that the program would look for SWarp if swarp were
not present, in which case this is a conflict with suckless-tools.

Bug#951033: Workaround found

2020-05-22 Thread Yann Vernier
I just mucked about with Cura and tracked down inaccessible buttons to a
lacking implicitWidth for the background of ActionButton in the QML.
However, when digging for more information, I found 

https://github.com/Ultimaker/Cura/issues/5488#issuecomment-588560291

This suggests setting QT_QUICK_CONTROLS_STYLE=material, and in my
testing that does indeed resolve several of the UI bugs, including the
crash when previewing and the misrendered (size, placement, missing
background) buttons. 

I shall see if I can set this in Cura itself, but the quick workaround
would seem a wrapper script that sets the environment variable. Such
tweaks are in fact the main content of the cura script itself (aka
cura_app.py), so something like:

os.environ["QT_QUICK_CONTROLS_STYLE"] = "material"

before the CuraApplication creation (next to last line) should do.



Bug#921491: debirf: Broken on usr merged systems

2019-11-14 Thread Yann Vernier
Having run into this issue also, I must note that this behaviour of dpkg 
contradicts their FAQ:

https://wiki.debian.org/Teams/Dpkg/FAQ#Q:_Will_dpkg_replace_a_symlink_with_a_directory_or_vice_versa.3F

Q: Will dpkg replace a symlink with a directory or vice versa?
A: No. As dpkg does not currently track file metadata, it does not know if a 
symlink or directory was switched by a previous package or by the sysadmin. As 
part of the dpkg credo, preserving human configuration is of utmost importance, 
and this kind of change has always been considered as so.

As of now, this should be handled by the package maintainer scripts (possibly 
with aid from dpkg-maintscript-helper), failing to do so should be considered a 
serious bug.



Bug#626450: workaround if you have a root shell

2011-05-12 Thread Yann Vernier
For those unlucky enough to hit this bug, yet lucky enough to still have a 
root shell open:
/lib/ld-linux-x86-64.so.2 /bin/ln -s /lib /lib64
Statically linked versions of ln (for instance in sash or busybox-static) 
should also work. Unfortunately, su will not.

Bug#598059: octave3.2: axis equal/square incorrect for gnuplot 4.4

2010-09-25 Thread Yann Vernier
Package: octave3.2
Version: 3.2.4-7
Severity: normal


There is a bug in handling of 2d plots with Octave 3.2 and Gnuplot 4.4.

I found that while axis equal or axis square change the plot, both
on screen and in print, it does not calculate the ratios correctly.
Whatever it is setting seems dependent on the window shape, which really
should never affect the printout.

Forcing __gnuplot_has_feature__(screen_coordinates_for_{lrtb}margin)
to 0 fixes this problem. That variable appears to be intended to handle
some change in gnuplot 4.3, which I am not aware of.
Within __go_draw_axes__ that variable affects not only margin
calculation but disables setting of gnuplot parameters origin and size.
The variable also affects the axis command itself, as dataaspectratio
seems to change format.

axis equal and axis square should be equivalent to gnuplot set size
ratio -1 and set size ratio 1 respectively.

Additionally, there seems to be a developer note about this in
__go_draw_axes__:
  ## FIXME -- nothing should change for gnuplot 4.2.x.
Whoever wrote that probably has a better idea than I what's going on.

Bug#548898: gvfs crashes gtk file chooser

2009-09-29 Thread Yann Vernier
Subject: gvfs crashes gtk file chooser
Package: gvfs
Version: 1.4.0-1
Severity: critical

*** Please type your report below this line ***
This was certainly a pain in the ass. For the record, the correct
response to an optional feature (gvfs) failing is not to crash the host
program. It's possible that bug belongs in libgtk, but the underlying
problem is just as severe (sending messages with unknown effects to
something that handles the file system).

Red Hat bug 512461 indicates that the problem is a protocol change
within gvfs - that is, between the library and the daemon processes it
automatically starts without user intervention. It spews a few error
messages of the form process 6686: type array 97 not a basic type then
crashes whatever Gtk program called the file chooser. Reproduced in
Iceweasel, Emacs, Comix, Viking etc. Not a bug is an insult to the
user, as this is nearly as destructive as it gets.

Appropriate handling:
#1. On failures, fall back to sane behaviour; i.e. non-vfs usage. 
#2. Make the protocol indicate version. Mismatches can then be detected.
Give a warning/error code that can be handled.
#3. If a sane solution exists (in this case, have gvfs* daemons exit),
consider automating it or at least suggesting it.

The problem could have been resolved in my instance by having the gvfs
package kill the daemons when they're upgraded.

Bug#494751: madwifi-source: fails with AR2413 on Linux 2.6.25-2-686

2008-08-11 Thread Yann Vernier
Package: madwifi-source
Version: 1:0.9.4+r3772.20080716-1
Severity: important

This package of madwifi does not work on my system. I'm using a stock
Debian kernel and hostapd, but even manually bringing it up in adhoc
mode fails. The interface appears, but no beacons ever occur; other
devices never see the atheros equipped machine.

An error shows up in dmesg, stating:
[2171794.419413] wifi0: ath_bstuck_tasklet: Stuck beacon; resetting (beacon 
miss count: 11)

I downloaded upstream v0.9.4, following links on madwifi.org, and that
works fine. I'm not sure how the Debian package differs.

2008-01-13 Thread Yann Vernier
Package: libsdl-mixer1.2
Version: 1.2.8-3
Severity: normal


When playing pydance, I found some songs that played at less than half
the speed they should. It turns out pydance was initialized to 22050Hz
sample rate, and SDL_mixer would play 44.1kHz songs resampled but 48kHz
songs were not. Further experiments showed that resampling would occur
at half rates, but not close rates. Playing 44.1kHz songs at 48kHz
sample rate thus showed a similar problem. This is quite unacceptable
for a program like pydance which relies on correct timing and switching
songs.

2007-11-19 Thread Yann Vernier
Package: kaya
Version: 0.2.7-2

Justification: no longer builds from source

This package fails to build because the diff contains files generated by
the configure phase. config.status, all Makefiles, config.log and
probably tests/test???/output should not be in the diff. Additionally,
the diff makes a change to configure.ac which has not been propagated to
configure; if it's intentional, autoconf needs to be rerun.

Subject: xkb-data: virtual keys missing from evdev keycodes, breaks modifiers
Package: xkb-data
Version: 0.9-4
Severity: normal

*** Please type your report below this line ***

Upon switching from kbd to evdev driver, and thus from xorg to evdev
keycode mappings, my window manager bindings stopped working. I
eventually traced this down to a weird part of the keycode files. 
In keycodes/xfree86, there are mappings for seven keys including META
to codes that never occur. I added similar lines to evdev:
// Fake keycodes for virtual keys
MDSW =   241; 
LVL3 =   242; 
ALT  =   243;
META =   244; 
SUPR =   245; 
HYPR =   246; 
And now my bindings do work. In linux/input.h keycode 240 is called
unknown and the range 241-255 are not defined.

  * Add option to show commands in kdesu password requests.

Partway there, but not quite enough for me, sorry. The new function
tries to display a command, but doesn't quite succeed at that (see
attachment).

In addition, it still runs this kdesu_stub, making it impossible to
use sudo's fine-grained command control to allow kwlan to administer the
network without giving away all control of the system. 

In my opinion, the bug should probably be transferred to kdesu at this
point, or use of sudo *instead* of kdesu should be added to kwlan. I'm
hesitant to trust kdesu, and since sudo is the point of privilege
escalation, I want to be able to use its functions properly.

Bug#427583: kwlan: can't be set up in a trustworthy manner

2007-06-04 Thread Yann Vernier
Package: kwlan
Version: 0.6.1-2+b1
Severity: important

kwlan uses kdesu to run arbitrary, unknown commands as root. The
documentation says You need to be able to run networking relevant
commands like dhclient, ifconfig, iwconfig, route and wpa_supplicant.
The phrasing indicates that this is NOT sufficient information to answer
the question (What programs does a user need to able to run using
sudo?), and there does not seem to be a correct answer. Checking my
auth.log, it seems it only runs one command:

Jun  5 03:05:21 zex sudo: yann : TTY=pts/3 ; PWD=/home/yann ;
USER=root ; COMMAND=/usr/bin/kdesu_stub -

In other words, it runs a stub for *arbitrary control*. Even this is run
hidden from me by a window that requests my or root's password without
hinting at what command it's talking about. I would like for the
question to have a proper answer, i.e. run the commands in question
using sudo, not a strange wrapper, and list the commands.

Bug#425593: cfv: please add support for bsd md5 -r format

2007-05-22 Thread Yann Vernier
Package: cfv
Version: 1.18-2.2
Severity: wishlist

Some friends of mine run FreeBSD, and therefore had checksum files produced
by their md5 command. The default output is already supported, but using
the switch -r it outputs something that's almost but not quite identical
to md5sum. Example:

md5 $(which md5) = MD5 (/sbin/md5) = 18eacbe50f75f0221195d16a5967bf7e
md5 -r $(which md5) = 18eacbe50f75f0221195d16a5967bf7e /sbin/md5

As far as I can tell, all that's needed to support verification of such
files is changing [ *] to [ *]? in this regex (class MD5):
_foosum_rem=re.compile(r'([0-9a-fA-F]{32}) ([ *])([^\r\n]+)[\r\n]*$')

Writing, however, would require an additional switch. The difference is
merely the absence of the text/binary specifier (either a space or *,
always written as * by cfv).

The -r switch (for FreeBSD) is poorly documented. Apparently NetBSD has
the same function as -n. The OpenBSD man page says that it matches
cksum, which uses yet another format.

Bug#278312: xserver-xfree86: [palmax] Touchscreen packets not processed unless under high load

 About 2 years ago, you reported a bug to the Debian BTS regarding
 touchscreen packets being ignored under high load. Did you reproduce
 this problem recently? If not, I will close this bug in the next
 weeks.

I rarely use that machine anymore, but if I recall correctly I did
about six months ago, and had to reapply the fix when I upgraded X.
It's probably easier to check the code to see if the logic error is
still there (not processing a packet unless *more* data is present). 
I can recheck it if you want, but not today.

Bug#392498: palmax touchscreen logic bug prevents use in low loads

2006-10-11 Thread Yann Vernier
Package: xserver-xorg-input-palmax
Version: 1.0.0.5-2

The palmax touchscreen driver contains a bug related to
the parsing of data from the serial port. The problem 
occurs when less than five bytes have been read after the
current package to be processed, a very frequent case
except when the system is under high load. The result is
that touchscreen data is discarded instead of parsed,
rendering the touchscreen unresponsive. 

I have found the faulty logic and am attaching a patch 
which seems to solve the problem correctly for me, though
it could probably use a second set of eyes to check for 
other thinkos. 

I am using a Palmax PD-1100, and with this patch applied
my touchscreen seems to work fine.

Bug#362096: rtorrent: doesn't properly check for write errors

2006-04-12 Thread Yann Vernier
Package: rtorrent
Version: 0.4.5-1
Severity: normal

While downloading to a nearly full disc, rtorrent will assume writes
succeed and download much more than it could store. I don't know if this
also makes it send incorrect data.

Bug#301999: dnsmasq insists client is first one in /etc/ethers with read-ethers

2005-03-29 Thread Yann Vernier
Package: dnsmasq
Version: 2.21-1
Severity: normal

When I have read-ethers on, dnsmasq keeps registering an otherwise
unknown dhcp client as the first one I have in /etc/ethers. This occurs
even though that client sends another hostname, and whether or not the
name in /etc/ethers is also listed in /etc/hosts. Currently working
around by not reading ethers, but this was one of the features that made
me choose dnsmasq in the first place. The MAC address registered in the
lease is that of the dhcp client, not the one listed in ethers, but
the name was taken from ethers.
