Package: console-tools Version: 1:0.2.3dbs-56 Severity: normal
I had a problem with my software suspend script which I tracked down to a hang in vt-is-UTF8. vt-is-UTF8 works by writing a sequence of characters to the terminal and then querying it. However, if a background process just happens to write to the terminal at the exact moment between when vt-is-UTF8 has written its characters and when it queries the terminal, vt-is-UTF8 will hang indefinitely. -- System Information: Debian Release: 3.1 Architecture: i386 (i686) Kernel: Linux 2.4.23 Locale: LANG=en_GB, LC_CTYPE=en_GB (charmap=ISO-8859-1) (ignored: LC_ALL set to en_GB) Versions of packages console-tools depends on: ii console-common 0.7.49 Basic infrastructure for text cons ii debconf 1.4.30.13 Debian configuration management sy ii libc6 2.3.2.ds1-22 GNU C Library: Shared libraries an ii libconsole 1:0.2.3dbs-56 Shared libraries for Linux console ii sysvinit 2.86.ds1-1 System-V like init -- no debconf information -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe".
