the problem with this setup is that if i understand it correctly, you're
essentially sharing variables between all packages.  in many cases the

 AFAIK templates are all read and registered to debconf database before
 the .config files are run. Pre-Dependencies stage (configuring packages on
 which other pre-depend) takes place later. Why register would not work if
 called from .config and the package containing the global question is also
 being installed? I think a plain dependency is all what is needed to
 make sure the global template is present and read at the .templates stage. 

no, i believe they're registered *by* the config, or whatever script
first sources the debconf library.  so, a template-providing package
must already be pre-configured before debconf questions will work.
*however*, the config script is run once again before the postinst,
at which point you're guaranteed that the package is pre-configured.
asking debconf questions at postinst time is kind of frowned upon,
but i think it's open for discussion whether it'd be okay in this
case.

 By the way, REGISTER looks a really nice approach for questions having
 an essentially similar debconf template (not to be messed with shared/*
 debconf templates). It might even be useful for shared/* questions instead
 of the above schema.

Possible mass bug filing: missing Icon= line in menu files

2004-10-14 Thread Nikita V. Youshchenko
Hello.

I've already tried to write this to debian-qt-kde, but there was no reply.

There are many packages that:
- do provide icons for programs they provide
- do provide files for /usr/lib/menu/
- but don't have Icon= lines in menu files.

This results in unwanted visual effects, such as when a KDE user drags an 
iten from Debian part of K menu item to the panel, panel doesn't get 
appropriate icon (although one is available). This is exactly what users 
of our network reported to me.

At least partial lintian/linda-level check is possible: problem exists if a 
package provides a .desktop file (under /usr/lshare/applications/) with 
Icon= line, and provides a menu file with no Icon= line.

So what's the correct action on the case?
File minor bugs against affected packages?
File wishlist bugs agains lintian/linda?
Doing nothing?
Something else?

 Debconf has no way to know if package B has a newer or an older version

I agree, but:

If B copied A/template automatically at build time, then it is sure that
the newest version of A will contain the newest or the same templates.

If A/templates from package A have preference, then it is only necessary 
to ensure that package A is kept up to date.

If you can't keep A up to date, then its worse than useless.

Hi,
the latest news from my upstream is, that they are not going to release 
a locale package for firefox 0.10 at all. They say they are going to 
release Firefox 10 RC1 instead which is due 18 October.

Now, I understand that many other locale packagers have similar probs. 
What does this mean? What is less unfortunate? Releasing Debian with a 
totally unsupported development release of firefox or dump the 
not-yet-updated locale packages instead?

Personally I'd rather have mozilla-firefox-locale-de removed from Sarge 
in order to get Firefox 1.0 in! The localization can still be installed 
through firefox' extension manager anyway.

 I don't see how we can get this kind of support without ppp and dhcp

I am not sure I understand what you mean here.  Are you saying that
there is no point in ifupdown providing the up command facility if the
up commands don't get run on reconnect as well as initial connect? 
That is certainly something worth discussing.

Currently ifupdown (experimental[1]) runs up commands and scripts
after bringing up any kind of interface.  That reflects its design:
ifupdown is not an active network management program; it assumes that
when it brings an interface up, it stays up.  In order to force PPP and
DHCP interfaces to conform to this model, ifupdown (experimental[2])
runs pppd with the persist option and other DHCP clients with options
that tell them to keep connections up and to keep retrying the
connection if it goes down[3] until they are told (by ifdown) to bring
the connections down.

[1] As I have mentioned before, the testing/unstable ifupdown runs up
commands too early in the case of PPP interfaces.
[2] The testing/unstable ifupdown does not use the persist option.
[3] Actually this is not entirely true.  See #263749 and #253472.

If we want a system that will run common hook scripts on reconnects then
we can certainly hack the feature into ifupdown.  However, our time
might be better spent writing a replacement for ifupdown that is
designed from the ground up to handle dynamic networking.


 It would take some thought to handle all the possibilities properly
 but the end result would be *very* nice.  I've tried a few times,
 and wound up with scripts in ppp, dhcp, and network - all modelled
 similiar to the DHCP state management.


I have also had to deal with this when I made the resolvconf package: I
had to write different hook scripts for each of the DHCP clients, pppd
and ifupdown.  It took a long time to debug them all.

I might be wrong, but I do not think so, if things were this way, debconf
shared questions as described in the debconf manual would never work at the

.config files registering new owners for that question are parsed. What I
vaguely remember is that only templates for packages having a .config file
(and might be that call debconf in it) are loaded, but that it is done before
the .config files are actually run.

Quoting from the debconf-devel man page (shared questions section)

  A  bit of an explanation is called for. By the time your config script
  runs, debconf has already read in all the templates for the packages that
  are being installed.

  By the way, REGISTER looks a really nice approach for questions having
  an essentially similar debconf template (not to be messed with shared/*

I now see that REGISTER might not be good for shared/* questions since it

 If you put it that way, I have to agree with you. However, I would make 
 one restriction:
 - packages in volatile have to keep their commandline (both input and
  output) interfaces compatible, 
 
 would that be 'have to' as in 'MUST'?
 
 Yes.
 
 define compatible.
 
 Not really a good definition, but explains what I have in mind:
 If package A is updated, for it to still keep compatibility, the 
 following needs to be fulfilled:
 
 Any pre-existing piece of software (let's call it X) which interfaces 
 with A must stay fully functional. New features may be added to A and 
 might not be available via the original interface, but any feature 
 previously available must still work in the same way (less bugs being 
 fixed). This also means that spelling mistakes in the C locale must be 
 preserved (they may get fixed in other locales though, including en_US) 
 as well as any (possibly even weird) output formatting.
 
 That last sentence also implies that any script using the commandline 
 interface of A must reset LC_ALL and LANG to C or unset it. Otherwise 
 the output format and wording might change from one revision to the 
 other. This is good practise anyway, since you couldn't rely on a 
 specific output formatting or wording without specifically setting a 
 well-known locale.

This sounds reasonable.  I have yet to understand the value of 'no new 
command-lines interfaces' as opposed to 'no broken scripting interfaces'.
Preserving specifically the system locale, seems like an excellent
balance, and would go a long way to resolving the mailscanner example
I gave (the output was to changed to give better functionality ...),
I wasn't familiar with this convention, but it seems an excellent example
of where a distro like debian can add value over upstream.

I don't think 'less bugs being fixed' could stand without some qualification
somewhere of what bugs it is acceptable to fix and cause breakage.

  but may change C/Python/Perl
  interfaces if no unresolved incompatibility in the whole of Debian is
  created that way. 
 
 Yeah I've never liked those C/Python/Perl people either, 
 not enough soldering irons! ;)
 
 grin It wasn't meant that way. But I think that locally written 
 scripts shouldn't directly use the Perl module API (as in 
 Mail::SpamAssassin for example) but use the commandline interface instead.

I'm uncomfortable with the form of words, but with you on the intended
destination.

I think requiring absolutely static interfaces is too great a 
straight-jacket, but drawing a line like this, so that people know
what to expect, is a good idea.  The line seems drawn with the lay of
the land to me.

I imagine that the maintainers could shed much more light on this.

  However, as far as possible, 
 
 what is the basis for the trade-off.
 
 You mean where I would draw the line for that? I would want to decide 
 that case-by-case. If the change to the API is minimal and the work for 
 avoiding it is tremendous (or other reasons make it important to 
 incorporate that change), it seems wise to allow it in.
 
 they _should_ also keep those compatible.
 
 so that's just a bug then?
 
 ??? You mean the incompatibility? Suppose so.

I wonder if a system where, in the event of breakage being deemed desirable,
it is handled by a device like a package rename, for example spamassassin3,
might be the way to go.  I can imagine the hawks being concerned that this
might provide a temptation to avoid the hard work of backporting, but it
seems like a reasonable device to want to have in the armoury.  Perhaps
some safeguard could exist.  For example the archive team could treat such
a new package as they would a new candidate.

If that were so then perhaps 'for C/Python/Perl incompatibilities the maintainer
should consider (whatever that means!)' use of this device, whatever it is.

As far as the trade-off goes, the example you give 'work for avoiding it'
we also have 'critical to purpose', and I'm sure there are others.  Not
everyone will regard such purposes as equal, so, as with APIs, there may
be some value in trying to enumerate them.

There again perhaps a more realistic model is agent-centred: 
'maintainer decides'
I can't see the harm in pursuing both avenues at this stage.

Returning to 'reasons to rename', perhaps a safeguard could be some consensus
around what are reasonable trade-offs.

 Another reason for exception is an 
 addition to the interface (as little interfering as possible) to allow 
 scanning for and reporting of new security holes or viruses (for 
 security/virus scanners).
 
 This is part of the definition of compatible?
 
 In a way, yes. see explanation above. The addition should interfere with

Do admins in non-english speaking countries use the C locale in this

Clearly there is not absolute consensus on this convention.  What sort
of support does it enjoy?  What (if any) equivalent policies already
exist in debian?

While there may be disagreement on the specifics, the value of proposals

* URL or Web page : 
http://users.skynet.be/solaris/linuxaudio/downloads/FIL-plugins-0.0.1.tar.bz2

  Description : A parametric equalizer LADSPA plugin

 Four-band parametric equaliser. Each section has an active/bypass
 switch, frequency, bandwidth and gain controls. There is also a
 global bypass switch and gain control.
 .
 The 2nd order resonant filters are implemented using a Mitra-Regalia
 style lattice filter, which has the nice property of being stable
 even while parameters are being changed.
 .
 All switches and controls are internally smoothed, so they can
 be used 'live' whithout any clicks or zipper noises. This should
 make this plugin a good candidate for use in systems that allow
 automation of plugin control ports, such as Ardour, or for 
 stage use.

  No. clamav virus signatures, for example, can be maintained by a program,
  freshclam, that downloads database updates from upstream.
 
 I know that, but as far as I under stande, the whole point of volatile
 is to replace exactly that with a situation where each maintainer does
 not have do program his own freshfoo system (and worry about finding a
 location to download from that is known in advance to stay availbale
 throughout the entire lifetime of the next stable release).

We have different understandings.  Some have expressed interest in using
volatile in this way, and I don't see any objection to that, provided
that it is a good way to solve the specific problem in hand.  But, that
is not 'the whole point of volatile', which is more as I describe (naturally :)

   I don't see how that means that there wouldn't be a need for rule
   updates.
 
  See above.  The consensus seems to be that it would be undesirable to 
  even try to push this data through the regular package-management channel.
 
 Whose consensus is this? The debian-devel feed that reaches me shows
 quite enthusiastic support for pushing rule updates through an aptable
 repository.

Sorry, useless generalisation on my part: 'this data'.  Let me try to be
more specific.

Virus definition updates fit in the 'undesirable' category.  Thats not
to say some database can't be packaged.  Here's a couple of references:

(I'll post a reply with the ml archive web urls, in a hurry just now)

For things like snort and spamassasin, both approaches have value.

For slower moving stuff, like the whois example, the question is more 
a case of 'what is a good way?'.

   And in any case the point is that I want to run a *stable* box. I
   am not keeping consciously track with upstream changes to
   background software like spam filters, so I didn't *know* that a
   3.0 version was about to happen. A user of stable should be *able*
   to remain ignorant about such chages.
 
  Ah, but you weren't just a user of stable were you?  
  You'd drunk from the forbidden waters of unstable! :)
 
 Because volatile does not currently exist.
 
   The point is to get improved *classification* without changing the
   *interfaces*.
 
  For me the point is to achieve function.
 
 Function may disappear totally if the update makes things break.

Yes, different people, different software, different requirements.

For me, a totally broken clamav is almost exactly as usefull as two-week
out-of-date clamav, but that's because I believe that the system that
I use can contain that breakage, so that I am _not_ talking about
sending all the mail to /dev/null.

   If upgrading will break existing interfaces, then when means after
   the current testing freezes and is released as stable.
 
  Yes, for stable.  Do we want 'just another stable' ?
 
 No, we want a way to push non-breaking data updates to stable users in
 a controlled way. They'll still be stable users, so they still want
 freedom from gratuitous breaking.

A lot of these two threads has been dedicated to painstaking description
of why 'data updates' doesn't cover it.

  If you s/mozilla/spamassassin/ I might want to argue the point.
 
 Well, I don't want to se an update to spamassassin in volatile if it
 breaks APIs that my scripts use. 

We are in broad agreement here.
Please see discussion with Sven and Thomas elsewhere in this thread.

 Raising spam detection rates from 97%
 to 98% is useless if the update makes my mail system go catatonic and
 deliver all incoming mail, spam or not, to /dev/null. 

Agreed.

 I run stable on
 my mail server because I *don't* want random breakage, and if not
 having any random breakage means that I'll have do delete a bit more
 of my spam by hand, then so be it.

Fine.

 If I wanted random breakage, I'd run testing on the server. But I don't.

Makes perfect sense to me.

And it all goes towards what you would like volatile to be.

  Why are we talking about mozilla?
 
 I don't know. You seem to have some kind of point about it, but I
 still cannot fathom what it is.

I suspect its a hangover from earlier in the thread, and that neither
of us is particularly interested in discussing that particular case.
Given that, we'd do better to talk about what we do care about.
That is my point.

 I now see that REGISTER might not be good for shared/* questions since it
 would add another owner to the question, but it really deserves further

Ah yes, thanks. A little bit of testing confirms for me that merely
having a depends on a package (ssl-cert) is enough to be able to 
register and ask questions from that package. Even on first install 
on a clean chroot.

So, it dosn't seem necessary to do any copying of templates at build

Right Way to make a configuration package

2004-10-14 Thread Mark Roach
I am working on creating a package for UserLinux which will configure
several packages with sensible defaults for an authentication server. At
the moment, that means samba, slapd, pam and nss, but will also include
heimdal later on.

My naive question is: is there currently any mechanism for forcing the
user to configure package x from within package y, and/or for
reconfiguring one package based on reconfiguring another?


## warning, verbosity follows ##

Perhaps I'm just approaching this the wrong way, so here is what I am
doing (and where the problem comes in), and if anyone has a suggestion
for a better approach, I would be happy to hear it.

userlinux-auth-server depends on slapd, samba, libpam-ldap, and libnss-
ldap.

In the postinst, it gets the samba domain name, the dns domain name, and
the ldap master password out of debconf, and populates the necessary
entries.

One problem is that the user may not necessarily have ever configured
samba or slapd through debconf. This package needs that info, but it's
not possible to dpkg-reconfigure a package from within the postinst of
another package. So we would have to tell them to manually dpkg-
reconfigure the dependancies and then reinstall, or gather the
information ourselves, but then there is potentially conflicting info in
debconf...

Another similar problem is that the user may reconfigure samba-common or
slapd at any point and obviously my package wouldn't know about it.

So, my conclusion is that debconf is not particularly well suited to
integrating several otherwise-unrelated packages and I am unsure whether
working around the problem, or helping to improve debconf, or doing it
some other way entirely is the better approach... thoughts?

Thanks,

Only that dpkg-preconfigure is not guaranteed to be called, and if it is
called, there is nothing really to ensure that it runs for all debs that
are being installed (since there is no status updating done to note that
a package was preconfigured). So if the preconfiguration does not happen
at all, or fails for some reason on the package containing the shared
templates, then you could be left with a problem. 

dpkg configuration ordering should take care of it for postinst scripts
(but not for preinsts), if preconfiguration was not done at all.

At a minimum, you'd break this case:

dpkg-preconfigure some.deb

There's no guarantee here that some.deb's dependencies are already
installed, and so it may miss templates or use versions from an older
version of the template package than the one it depends on. You would at
least need to take care to exit the config script in this case and let
it re-run when the package is installed, and if you ever added versioned
dependencies on the template package you would have to make the config
script detect that it was running with templates from an older version
of the package and abort.

There may be other cases that would be broken that I'm not thinking of
right now.

Bug#276606: ITP: libsub-override-perl -- Perl module used to temporarily override subroutines

2004-10-14 Thread Kenneth Pronovici
Package: wnpp
Severity: wishlist

  Package name: libsub-override-perl
  Version : 0.05
  Upstream Author : Curtis Ovid Poe
  URL : 
http://cpan.org/modules/by-module/Sub/Sub-Override-0.05.tar.gz
  License : Perl
  Description : Perl module used to temporarily override subroutines
   This is the CPAN module Sub::Override.
   .
   Perl programmers sometimes have a need to override subroutines,
   particularly for testing purposes.  Sub::Override provides a simple
   way to override subroutines instead of using heavier-weight methods
   such as Mock Objects.

I'm packaging this because the latest libhtml-tokeparser-simple-perl
requires it.

KEN

I'm surprised somebody hasn't done this sooner. Fonts from 1743 have 
been out of copyright for at least, oh, 5 years or so. ;)

Bug#276612: ITP: pstreams -- A C++ IOStream interface to POSIX Process I/O

2004-10-14 Thread Antonio S. de A. Terceiro
Package: wnpp
Severity: wishlist

* Package name: pstreams
  Version : 0.48
  Upstream Author : Jonathan Wakely [EMAIL PROTECTED]
* URL : http://pstreams.sourceforge.net
* License : LGPL
  Description : A C++ IOStream interface to POSIX Process I/O

From the PStreams home page:

   PStreams allows you to run another program from your C++ application
   and to transfer data between the two programs similar to shell
   pipelines.

   In the simplest case, a PStreams class is like a C++ wrapper for the
   POSIX.2 functions popen(3) and pclose(3), using C++ IOStreams instead
   of C's stdio library.

hi,
i saw the linuxcookbook package is only available in stable (i mailed
the maintainer why) but i noticed that the package isnt mantioned on the
devel package of the maintainer:
http://qa.debian.org/[EMAIL PROTECTED]
can someone tell me why?
regards nico:wq
 

The second edition has recently come out, and with it I notice that it 
is no longer housed at TLDP, or available elsewhere other than the 
publisher.
