[Bug 1704762] [NEW] bootstrap fails while compiling gcc-4.9.4 packages from source on yakkety and later

2017-07-17 Thread Florin Gherendi
Public bug reported:

On yakkety and zesty, trying to compile the gcc-4.9.4 packages from source will 
fail on bootstrap phase. This is because gccgo-4.9.4 will try to store non-zero 
values in .bss in the assembler source, and that will trigger an assembler 
error in binutils >= 2.27 provided with yakkety and zesty. The error is 
explained in binutils/gas/Changelog-2015 (search bss).
I didn't go further to see if other compilers from the gcc package will trigger 
this error, but it's possible as well (so far, g++, objc, objc++ and gcc itself 
do not).

I know that this is rather a gcc bug and the 4.9.4 is just a maintenance
release, and the development of this version ceased; but there are still
many apps out there requiring gcc-4.9. I think a patch to solve this
would be more than useful.

[Bug 1574642] Re: mediascanner-service-2.0 prevents ejecting, unmounting & or formatting usb drives in a desktop session

2017-07-06 Thread Florin Gherendi
I also have this problem with 16.04LTS since a very long time, and many others 
that are not even worked on (kernel panics on shutdown, systemd taking forever 
to shutdown mysql or other random services, sticky notes no longer working, etc 
etc). And the irony is that most of the times the bug reports are closed for 
"lack of activity". 
Due to the increasing number of problems occuring from one LTS to another LTS 
version of Ubuntu, and most of the bugs being solved in the following release 
but never in the LTS version, I don't see a reason in calling it LTS (Long Time 
Support); and I also don't have time to backport the solutions or replace the 
whole distribution every time a bug is solved, so I am seriously beginning to 
think to migrate to a cutting-edge pure Debian or even Linux From Scratch and 
keep it like that; it would cause less trouble and less waste of time.

[Bug 1551351] Re: dhclient does not renew leases

2016-11-08 Thread Florin Gherendi
It happens to me after recent updates in 16.04 LTS. On boot I get an IP
from the DHCP server, all is well, but the IP is dropped after a while,
without complaint from network manager applet which still shows like the
network is connected. Unplugging and plugging the ethernet cable solves
the problem for the whole day. Looking in the syslog it appears that
NetworkManager is started at boot time and then systemd tries to start
it again, causing an IP conflict:

[Bug 1597782] Re: Visolate crashes by just launching

2016-10-28 Thread Florin Gherendi
It's just another problem in the 16.04 LTS distribution, among many
other... It shouldn't have been named LTS, nobody ever answers to
support requests and it's far from being stable. Why in the world they
put visolate version 2.1.6 in the repository together with OpenJDK 8 as
long as they are known not to work together?

[Bug 1620249] [NEW] gnome-tweak-tool no options in "Titlebar Buttons"

2016-09-05 Thread Florin Gherendi
Public bug reported:

After upgrade from Ubuntu 14.04 LTS to 16.04 LTS, the windows title bar has no 
minimize/maximize buttons. In gnome-tweak-tool the "Titlebar Buttons" entry has 
no options to configure.
Running compiz flashback mode (I don't like the Gnome tablet style interface). 

Computer is an Intel Core I7 with AsRock Z77 Extreme4 motherboard and 
integrated Intel graphics.
I have to mention that the distro upgrade totally broke the X so I had to purge 
it and completely reinstall Xorg, Ubuntu desktop and Gnome desktop (gdm3 was 
hanging, Xorg was "stopping successfully" according to log, and never start 
again, and startx was leading to indefinite hang, and no message in the logs 
was giving any clue)

[Bug 1155145] [NEW] IMAP attachments corruption

2013-03-14 Thread Florin Gherendi
Public bug reported:

On Oneiric Ocelot 11.10, Evolution 3.2.2-0ubuntu0.1 corrupts attachments when 
saving from IMAP account. It hapens very often on MS Office files (not on all 
of them), which makes it practically unusable.
The IMAP server is local so network latency should not be a problem. Saving 
attachment from pine and then copying from server is ok, so it's not a problem 
of the attachment itself.

It might be related to the fact that sometimes the IMAP connection hangs
indefinitely and has to be stopped.  IMAP ping errors are also reported
frequently (bad timeout management issue?).

Looking for an obvious answer on google, there might be one, but I had
no success  after a very long search time (and I am not a newbie), so I
cannot tell if these problems have been fixed  for more recent releases.
No update that would fix this has been released so far for Ubuntu 11.10.
