Re: Should I be able to use mergemaster with freebsd-update?
I'm using freebsd-update to upgrade my system to the latest minor version
(from 8.3-RELEASE to 8.4-RELEASE).
I'm surprised that the merge handling system isn't more robust. When
upgrading
the old way, from source, I was used to using mergemaster to handle any
merges that couldn't be done automatically.
But when using freebsd-update, it seems that any failed merges require that
you get dumped into an empty text editor for each file.
[...]
As I continue with this process, doing all the mergemaster tasks manually, I'm
finding that the situation is even worse than I first realized.
First, the relatively painless part. As I mentioned, after running
'freebsd-update -r 8.4-RELEASE upgrade', I had to deal with the un-mergeable
files.
Although mergemaster apparently isn't an option, its interactive merge
function is really just a front-end for sdiff, so I found that I could
replicate that part of its functionality by doing this in a separate window
(-w 100 because I use a 100-column terminal):
cd /var/db/freebsd-update/merge/8.4-RELEASE
find -X . -type f | xargs -n 1 -o -I % sh -c '{ echo Now processing %.
left=current, right=new, help=?; sdiff -d -w 100 -o ../new/% ../old/% %; }'
This populated my 'new' directory with merged files, so that (in the first
window) when I opened the text editor for each one, I only had to just give it
a once-over and exit the editor.
Among the diffs in this 8.3 to 8.4 upgrade were changes to /etc/master.passwd
and /etc/passwd, to add the 'auditdistd' and 'hast' users. As reported in
March 2012 [1] in relation to 8.x to 9.x upgrades, this won't work as
expected, because freebsd-update doesn't run pwd_mkdb after the master.passwd
update.
Now the real hurt begins; in the 8.3 to 8.4 upgrade, it's even worse.
Once I saved all the files in the editor, I was prompted to approve a diff for
each one. I had to answer y or the entire process aborts.
Among the changes I was asked to approve, besides visible diffs, were
unspecified differences in /etc/pwd.db and /etc/spwd.db, the binary files that
contain the password database. There's no choice but to answer y and
approve them, and I don't get any opportunity to rebuild them properly.
So apparently, freebsd-update wants to install new, stock password databases,
which are out-of-sync with my customized, merged master.passwd passwd files.
(And because of the way the freebsd-update system works, what I actually
approved were empty, 0-byte files, the result of the failed merges.)
What would happen if I just let it do this? Surely I wouldn't be able to log
in, after the reboot, right?
After approving the files (again, I had no choice!), I was presented with
lists of all the files that would be deleted, added, and modified. Sure
enough, bad /etc/pwd.db and /etc/spwd.db files were in the list.
At this point, the merge folders were now gone; I no longer had the new
master.passwd in a recognizable place. So I thought, OK, I'll run
'freebsd-update install' and hope that the new files end up in /etc. Then I
could just run 'pwd_mkdb -p /etc/master.passwd' to regenerate passwd, pwd.db
and spwd.db before my reboot.
But the 'freebsd-update install' didn't put them there yet; I guess that
doesn't happen till after the reboot. So they're still sitting in a staging
folder, now gzipped and with obfuscated names, indexed in a separate file.
Averting this disaster-in-the-making is not at all straightforward:
cd /var/db/freebsd-update
mkdir -m 0700 /tmp/oldpwdfiles
zcat files/`grep '^/etc/master\.passwd' install.LYQAJQ/INDEX-NEW | cut -d \| -f
7`.gz /tmp/oldpwdfiles/master.passwd
zcat files/`grep '^/etc/passwd' install.LYQAJQ/INDEX-NEW | cut -d \| -f 7`.gz
/tmp/oldpwdfiles/passwd
zcat files/`grep '^/etc/pwd\.db' install.LYQAJQ/INDEX-NEW | cut -d \| -f 7`.gz
/tmp/oldpwdfiles/pwd.db
zcat files/`grep '^/etc/spwd\.db' install.LYQAJQ/INDEX-NEW | cut -d \| -f 7`.gz
/tmp/oldpwdfiles/spwd.db
mkdir -m 0700 /tmp/newpwdfiles
pwd_mkdb -d /tmp/newpwdfiles -p /tmp/oldpwdfiles/master.passwd
gzip /tmp/newpwdfiles/*
mv /tmp/newpwdfiles/master.passwd.gz files/`grep '^/etc/master\.passwd'
install.LYQAJQ/INDEX-NEW | cut -d \| -f 7`.gz
mv /tmp/newpwdfiles/passwd.gz files/`grep '^/etc/passwd'
install.LYQAJQ/INDEX-NEW | cut -d \| -f 7`.gz
mv /tmp/newpwdfiles/pwd.db.gz files/`grep '^/etc/pwd\.db'
install.LYQAJQ/INDEX-NEW | cut -d \| -f 7`.gz
mv /tmp/newpwdfiles/spwd.db.gz files/`grep '^/etc/spwd\.db'
install.LYQAJQ/INDEX-NEW | cut -d \| -f 7`.gz
rm -fr /tmp/oldpwdfiles /tmp/newpwdfiles
I'm really shocked that it came to this. Did I just overlook the
--no-surprises option in freebsd-update?
And now, before I reboot, I have to figure out how to handle the changes that
got made in /etc/mail ... ordinarily I'd run 'make all install restart' in
there. Not an option till after reboot, though. At least it's not crucial for
the reboot to work.
Again, this is something that mergemaster was really good for. But

Re: When to submit regression in a PR
Hi, Shane Ambler said : My question therefore is: while I will mention these problems upstream, should I also make the PR? Contact the port maintainer directly? I understand it is not FreeBSD specific (same issue on Debian Sid) however it really make the current port unusable for those working on laptops and those needing to input characters only reachable with the compose key. I would. While the ports are handled separately from the base system they need to be maintained as well. If a version of a port has issues then an older version could stay in place. The pr system is used for ports as well as the base system. Mark Felder said : It's probably a good idea to open a PR and let the port maintainer know, but we really need to have upstream to fix it. FreeBSD discourages doing custom development in the ports tree, so even if you could whip up a patch to fix it we would prefer that it get committed upstream and the port updated to pull the new version rather than have the port committer include a custom patch with the port. Thanks Shane and Mark. In fact, shortly after this mail a beginning of fix as been committed, so it will eventually surface in FreeBSD as well. Shane Ambler said: Can't say I'm sure which key you refer to as compose - do you mean Alt or Ctrl? I have heard of the ctrl key being remapped to the caps lock for continuous use. You may also look into turning on sticky keys, it keeps a modifier key active without holding it down so that the next key pressed has the modifier included. see x11/xkbset You can turn any key into a compose/multi key. Mine is mapped on the Right Alt: setxkbmap -option compose:ralt It allows you to input characters such é or ø on keyboards where such keys are missing. It works by making key combos or chords. As for the stickiness of the key this is partly a problem linked to the fix just committed. By default a compose key seems to work both as sticky and non sticky to accommodate different writing styles/needs. This is noticeable in any X applications that accept keyboard input, from terminals to a browser. The last commit in upstream plan9port has brought back the functionality of the compose key only as sticky. When a key chord is done (non-sticky) the compose functionality is not working. Anyway this discussion is not so relevant to this list anymore :) Thanks again for advising on the PR issue! Very useful.

Re: Should I be able to use mergemaster with freebsd-update?
On Tue, Jun 25, 2013, at 15:29, Eugene wrote: I do not quite understand. Is the freebsd-update upgrade process completely broken? IMHO it is partially broken; I'm not doing anything special. How broken it is depends on what's getting changed. Most of what the system is designed to do, it indeed does very well. It also overlaps some of the functionality of mergemaster in that it automatically merges as many files as it can, which is nice. Where it is under-designed and under-implemented is in its rudimentary handling of un-mergeable files, and in its total lack of support for the regeneration of /etc/*.db files (like the, uh, rather important password database) and sendmail aliases - things that you would handle via mergemaster in an ordinary, source-based upgrade, but which you must now figure out how to do by hand, without any guidance, and they really don't make it easy for you. When I upgraded from 8.1 to 8.3, I avoided the issue altogether by not really merging anything; when dumped into the empty text editor, I just loaded my old files and made no changes. In the Handbook, there's an assumption that people who do this will go back later and figure out what merges are needed, but the resources you need to do that don't exist; if you don't do the merge when prompted, you don't get a second chance. In fact, even if you do it when prompted, you need to get it right, or start the whole process over. My upgrade to 8.3 worked out OK because I got lucky; freebsd-update hadn't fetched new, stock password database files. The unmergeable files were all text files, nothing requiring anything to be regenerated. But this time around, for 8.3 to 8.4, I am trying to do everything I'm supposed to, actually merging when prompted. The fact that it's a *really* manual process is a pain, but as I mentioned, I found a way to at least run sdiff from another window, which made it a lot easier, although still more tedious than it should be. The main problem this time is that I'm not so lucky with the password files, because for 8.4, freebsd-update has fetched new, stock .db files to put in /etc. So, yes, I was able to merge master.passwd passwd, but that's not very helpful since the .db files won't be in sync with them. If allow my custom password database to be overwritten with these new, stock .db files, obviously that's bad. And because freebsd-update makes no special allowance for the .db files, it actually put a zero-byte file in the staging area instead of the real .db file (as if it were going to have me modify it with an editor). So if I proceed, my password database will actually be overwritten with an empty file, which I believe would be a disaster. The solution, I feel, is to: 1. make freebsd-update recognize files that most likely need to be regenerated instead of replaced - /etc/*.db, at least, if not also any other binary file, and some of the things that would be generated by 'make' in /etc/mail. The user should be informed that these files need to be regenerated, if there's no way to just regenerate them automatically when their companion source files have been updated or merged. 2. make freebsd-update run mergemaster on the unmergeable text files, instead of dumping the user into an empty text editor for each one. For each file that can't be automatically merged, mergemaster will give the user the opportunity to choose whether to keep the old file, replace it with the new file, interactively merge them via sdiff, or do nothing. It is also smart enough to realize that when certain files are being touched, such as /etc/master.passwd, /etc/mail/aliases, etc. you'll need to run pwd_mkdb, cap_mkdb, services_mkdb, or newaliases...and it will run those for you (or remind you to do it). For this to work, mergemaster would need some tweaking to deal with freebsd-update's staging area, and to not duplicate any of the work that freebsd-update does. I keep hoping that maybe there's some nuance of the process that I'm missing, and that all of this really is not a problem.. user error, or not reading the docs carefully enough, you know?

TIA, Olivier ___ freebsd-questions@freebsd.org mailing list http://lists.freebsd.org/mailman/listinfo/freebsd-questions To unsubscribe, send any mail to freebsd-questions-unsubscr...@freebsd.org

Probably snd_hda will work. A common solution is to try this first (because of the name matching), and then load all drivers and see which one is working. Check the kernel output messages and also cat /dev/sndstat to confirm success. -- Polytropon Magdeburg, Germany Happy FreeBSD user since 4.0 Andra moi ennepe, Mousa, ... ___ freebsd-questions@freebsd.org mailing list http://lists.freebsd.org/mailman/listinfo/freebsd-questions To unsubscribe, send any mail to freebsd-questions-unsubscr...@freebsd.org
