[Bug 1449089] Re: Regression: compiz 1:0.9.11.3+14.04.20150313-0ubuntu1 segfaults on Radeon HD 7470/8470

2015-04-28 Thread Jonathan Reed
After more research, this turns out to be a bizarre interaction of
various things.  The culprit is the intersection of this version of
compiz and running older kernel versions.   As soon as we updated to
linux-image-3.13.0-49-generic, the problem went away.  So I think it's
still the case that something in the latest compiz update, at least on
that one specific radeon card, is tickling a bug that was present at
least as recently as 3.13.0-44, but went away some time between then and
the current version.  (I do see some radeon-specific notes in the
changelog for the package, for the -45, -46, and -47 releases).

(For unrelated reasons, a site-specific script to prune old kernel
versions had the side effect, in Trusty, of removing linux-image-
generic, due to changed dependencies between trusty and precise.  As a
result, machines didn't take kernel updates in a timely manner, which is
why this bug got noticed, and the failure mode did coincide with the
machines taking the latest compiz.)

So feel free to close this, unless there's any further info you want.

2015-04-27 Thread Jonathan Reed
Public bug reported:

After taking the 20150313 update of Compiz, compiz segfaults on Dell
Optiplex 7010 workstations with a Radeon HD 7470/8470 graphics card.
I'm going to get try and get more debugging information, but there was
not a stack trace in the kernel.log, only a single segfault mention in
/var/log/syslog.

2015-04-27 Thread Jonathan Reed
Unfortunately we disable apport on our public workstations.  I will try
to reproduce it on a workstation with apport enabled and retrieve a
crash file, if there is one.

We do not use fglrx; we use the stock radeon (this is on 14.04.2,
without the HWE stack), and the problem occurs on machines with kernel
versions ranging from 3.13.0-32 to 3.13.0-46.  The common denominator is
the specific Radeon card, and the 20150313 update of compiz.

I'll paste the syslog line shortly.

[Bug 1355845] [NEW] partman/unmount_active is not preseedable

2014-08-12 Thread Jonathan Reed
Public bug reported:

The partman/unmount_active question is not preseedable.  This is a
problem.

Due to some other d-i bug introduced in trusty, the mountmedia command
is extremely ... insistent, and when we re-install machines in an
unattended mode, it finds /dev/sda1 (a /boot partition) and insists on
mounting it on /media, even when anna/retriever is set to net-retriever.
This causes partman to complain about mounted partitions.  I should be
able to pre-seed this question, but I can't, because it forces the seen
flag to false.  It is a bit presumptuous of d-i to think that it knows
my installation environment better than I do:  these are unattended
machines installed over the network, and any mounted partitions should
get overwritten.  I do understand the desire not to accidentally
scribble over installation media, but at the same time, consider letting
sysadmins who know what they're doing preseed answers to questions here.
If you're concerned, introduce another debconf key
partman/disable_all_safety_checks or something that defaults to false.

For another example of people getting bitten by this problem, see:

2014-08-12 Thread Jonathan Reed
And before someone bothers to point out that partman/filter_mounted is
preseedable, that doesn't help.  All that does is tell partman not to
filter out mounted partitions.  So if I set that to false, partman
doesn't display the warning, but will attempt to create a partition on a
mounted filesystem, which doesn't work.  There is absolutely no way to
tell partman No, really, there should not be any local block devices
mounted. short of forcing things in an early_command, which is a fairly
large hammer.

The default apparmor 'X' abstraction permits access to
/{,var/}run/lightdm/authority/[0-9]*, ostensibly for the xauthority

For anyone, like me, who is naive enough to think that it's possible to
set XDG_CACHE_HOME or DCONF_PROFILE to values other than the default,
note that this fix _only_ allows access to the user profile.  If you
rename your user profile, you cannot use any apparmor-enabled
application that uses dconf.  I know there's nothing to be done about
this, but I'm leaving this comment here lest anyone else encounter this

[Bug 1338163] [NEW] unity lock screen provides no way to force-logout a user

2014-07-05 Thread Jonathan Reed
Public bug reported:

Let me start by saying that I realize that unity's screen locker is not
the same thing as gnome-screensaver.  That having been said, there are
major regressions in functionality with the advent of Trusty.  Virtually
every site that uses Linux in any sort of public computing areas makes
use (or used to, at least) of gnome-screensaver's logout-delay and
logout-enabled functionality, which would, after the screen had been
locked for a pre-determined amount of time, present a Log Out button
that would end the user's session, optionally running a custom command
to do so.  This is vital, lest people walk away from their workstations,
rendering them unusable by others until they are rebooted.

unity's lock screen mode provides no way to do this.  Right up until the
final beta, it was possible to swap out unity's lockscreen mode for
gnome-screensaver, but that was removed as well.  I wouldn't mind if it
was possible to configure the alternate use of a screensaver, but Unity
goes out of its way to ensure you can't do this.  If there's some magic
way to do this, by adding an applet to the panel when in lockscreen
mode, or by invoking some D-Bus black magic, I'd be happy to hear about
it.

But really, removing this level of functionality while simultaneously
preventing any workarounds, is a real problem.

Steps to reproduce:
1) Log in to a unity session.
2) Lock the screen.
3) Observe that org.gnome.desktop.screensaver gsettings keys are not honored.
4) Examine the com.canonical.unity* schemas and observe there is no way to 
enable this behavior.

[Bug 1249515] Re: regression with session-cleanup-script triggering without actual logins

2014-06-24 Thread Jonathan Reed
I'm also seeing this in Trusty (lightdm 1.10.1-0ubuntu1).  At our site,
we have a custom greeter using the GIR bindings, and calling
.cancel_authentication() causes the session-cleanup script to run.  As
this is designed to, you know, clean up after a session, it is not
idempotent and is not designed to be run without the corresponding
session-setup script having run.  Obviously we can workaround this, but
seeing as how this was a pretty serious regression, is there any hope of
this getting fixed?

[Bug 1332131] [NEW] avahi-cups-reload Upstart job leads to weird race conditions

2014-06-19 Thread Jonathan Reed
Public bug reported:

I'll start out by saying that I cannot _consistently_ reproduce this (it
is, after all, a race condition), however the fix is trivial and a no-
op, so I'm filing the bug anyway.

I ran into the following situation on Ubuntu 14.04:  After booting, it
was often the case that CUPS would not be running.  CUPS started just
fine if started by hand, and there were no obvious causes of this in the
syslog.  However, the times when CUPS was not running, I noticed the
boot process seemed to be a bit more sluggish than usual.  I eventually
tracked this down to the avahi-cups-reload job, which unconditionally
kicks CUPS once avahi has been started, with no regard for whether CUPS
is actually running.  As soon as I moved that Upstart job out of the
way, the problems vanished.  My particular issue stems from the fact
that our site also has another init script that attempts to ensure CUPS
is running (and restarts it if not), and much of the time, this was
happening while avahi-cups-reload was attempting to reload CUPS.  This
resulted in CUPS eventually failing to restart (because the post-start
script in the CUPS job determined CUPS wasn't running, and exited 0.),
which Upstart interpreted as success, and therefore assumed that CUPS
was in fact running.

I realize this is quite a specific problem, and may well be unique to
our site, but is there any reason why the the avahi-cups-reload job
cannot change its condition from:

start on started avahi-daemon

to

start on (started avahi-daemon and started cups)

which also seems to fix the problem for me, by at least ensuring things
start in an orderly manner.  (There may well be a subtle Upstart bug
here too, but this seems like an easy fix.)  See also, Launchpad
#1251735, where someone else appears to be experiencing a variant of
this issue, and is also requesting the same fix.

[Bug 1328677] [NEW] unity first-run stamp should not be in XDG_CACHE_HOME

2014-06-10 Thread Jonathan Reed
Public bug reported:

The unity first_run.stamp file should not be in XDG_CACHE_HOME.  As it
is a _cache_, it can be ephemeral.  Rather, it should be in
XDG_CONFIG_HOME.  Once the keyboard shortcut list, for example, has been
presented, I don't need to be told about it again, even if I need to
purge my ~/.cache directory.

This is a problem at our site, where XDG_CACHE_HOME is stored on a
temporary filesystem, to cut down on the tremendous amount of useless
network traffic between workstations and the user's file server.  As a
result, users now have to learn about Unity keyboard shortcuts on every
single login.

[Bug 1327384] [NEW] unity-panel-service --lockscreen-mode does not provide a way to disable Switch User

2014-06-06 Thread Jonathan Reed
Public bug reported:

Unity's screen locking mechanism does not respect any existing gsettings
having to do with disabling the Switch User functionality, nor does it
provide any way to do it natively.  Ideally, it would respect
org.gnome.desktop.lockdown, but I realize that's probably never going to
happen.

I was able to disable the Switch User functionality in the indicator
menu by setting com.canonical.indicator.session user-show-menu false
in gsettings, but the lockscreen mode of unity-panel-service does not
respect this.  gnome-screensaver provided a way to do this
(org.gnome.desktop.lockdown disable-user-switching true), so this is a
major regression for anyone attempting to use Ubuntu in a public
computing environment.

Steps to reproduce:

1) Start a unity session.
2) gsettings com.canonical.indicator.session user-show-menu false
3) Observe that Switch User disappears from the indicator menu.
4) Lock the screen.
5) Observe that Switch User is present on the indicator menu.
6) Be sad.

[Bug 1322260] [NEW] devscripts-el and emacs cannot be installed in same transaction

2014-05-22 Thread Jonathan Reed
Public bug reported:

In Trusty, you cannot install devscripts-el and emacs in the same apt
transaction, because devscripts-el's postinst will fail.  If emacs is
already installed prior to the transaction, it works fine.

Steps to reproduce:
1) Install 14.04 (amd64) from the Desktop CD, accepting all the defaults.  
(This does not install emacs)
2) Run apt-get install devscripts-el
3) See the transaction fail (a typescript is attached)

Some things to note:
If you install emacsen-common (just emacsen-common, not emacs itself) first, 
you will see the following errors during the transaction:

Preparing to unpack .../apel_10.8+0.20120427-6_all.deb ...
ERROR: apel is broken - called emacs-package-install as a new-style add-on, but 
has no compat file.

Preparing to unpack .../devscripts-el_35.8ubuntu2_all.deb ...
ERROR: devscripts-el is broken - called emacs-package-install as a new-style 
add-on, but has no compat file.

The transaction will still fail as it does above.  Despite all the
packages above being listed as broken, it's only devscripts-el that
can't be installed in the same transaction.  All combinations of (dpkg-
dev-el, debian-el, apel) and emacs in the same transaction work fine, so
it is clear that it's devscripts-el is to blame here.  This also seems
related to Debian Bug #734531.

Additional info:

(No matter how much I try, or what I set MaxReports to, I cannot
convince apport to generate an error log for this failure.)

[Bug 1206387] Re: openafs-modules-dkms 1.6.1-1+ubuntu0.2: module FTBFS on 3.8.0

2013-12-02 Thread Jonathan Reed
Running a 1.6.5 module against a 1.6.1 userspace seems like a worse idea
than taking 1.6.5 as an SRU.  Would you accept the backport if we
provided additional userland test cases?

I'm not interested in starting a debate about the HWE process, but from
our perspective, the HWE stack broke a package in universe (albeit one
with a small userbase compared to, say, Xorg).  From our perspective,
any working package is better than a broken package.  Because of AFS'
small userbase, this SRU should also have far less of an impact than one
for, say, Xorg.

 If you have newer hardware that requires the newer enablement stack, it's
 better to have it available than not, even if that means some out-of-tree
 modules are not available.  If you don't need the new enablement stack, then
 it's recommended that you use the LTS kernel.

Not to get too off topic (and I tried to bring this up in UDS chats when
rolling releases/HWE became a thing), but that really only works in
homogenous environments, which are not really a thing in academia or
other large non-enterprise environments.  In our case (and I suspect
Russ speaks for a similar environment), we replace our workstations on a
rolling 3-year cycle (meaning we get new hardware whenever Dell feels
like changing the chipset).  So some machines require HWE, others don't.

The other challenge is that to the average end user, it is not at all
clear that using point release media means an HWE stack, but using
original media and upgrading to the point release doesn't.  We had a
terrible time when the Quantal HWE came out, and whether or not they had
working OpenAFS was determined by whether they installed from an ISO
image or a net install.

[Bug 873551] Re: dictionaries-common: debconf corruption

2013-04-02 Thread Jonathan Reed
I ran into this and believe I have found the root cause.  In update-
default-ispell, this logic is wrong:

  # Question is empty, but $class elements are installed. Two possibilities.
  if ( -x /usr/bin/apt-extracttemplates ){
# apt-utils is installed. Other possibility is debconf database corruption.


Just because apt-utils is _installed_ doesn't mean the templates were parsed 
correctly.  For example, if dpkg-preconfigure doesn't like the shell that d-i 
gives your late_command:

 Preconfiguring packages ...
 Unknown terminal: bterm
 Check the TERM environment variable.
 Also make sure that the terminal is defined in the terminfo database.
 Alternatively, set the TERMCAP environment variable to the desired termcap 
entry.
 debconf: whiptail output the above errors, giving up!

So update-default-ispell should not conditionalize on the existence of
apt-extracttemplates to decide whether the database is corrupted or not.
Regardless, update-default-ispell failing in the postinst should not be
a fatal error.

[Bug 1115424] [NEW] latexmk recommends non-existent package, pulls in KDE on Quantal

2013-02-04 Thread Jonathan Reed
Public bug reported:

The latexmk recommends xpdf-reader | pdf-viewer, among other things.
However, xpdf-reader has not existed since Lucid, so APT attempts to
satisfy the virtual recommendation on pdf-viewer.  In Precise, this
was not a problem, because evince-gtk was the first choice for a PDF
reader.  However, in Quantal, the first choice for this is okular, which
attempts pull in all of KDE with it.

Please update latexmk to Recommend xpdf | pdf-viewer so that it
actually tries an existing concrete package before the virtual one.

Steps to reproduce:
1) Install Ubuntu Server 12.10
2) apt-get install latexmk (or texlive-full, which is how I noticed this); 
watch it pull in all of KDE.

[Bug 1111537] [NEW] lightdm's post-stop sometimes fails

2013-01-31 Thread Jonathan Reed
Public bug reported:

In our somewhat complicated environment, I've managed to trigger a race
condition in which shutting down or rebooting the machine from a
(custom) lightdm greeter results in the machine popping up the low
graphics mode warning, and never shutting down.  The greeter is using
the Python GIR bindings to call LightDM.shutdown() and
LightDM.restart(), respectively, so I'm fairly certain it's not the
greeter's fault.

I finally tracked this down to the post-stop script in lightdm's upstart
job, namely that initctl emit desktop-shutdown is sometimes returning
non-zero.  Because all Upstart jobs are run with set -e, lightdm
fails, and Upstart then decides that X isn't working and pops up the
low-graphics mode warning.

Adding the usual || : idiom fixes this, e.g.

   post-stop script
if [ $UPSTART_STOP_EVENTS = runlevel ]; then
initctl emit desktop-shutdown || :
fi
   end script

I think this is the right thing to do anyway, because if lightdm is
being stopped, and for whatever reason, the desktop-shutdown signal is
not emitted, there's not a good way to recover from that anyway, so it
shouldn't be a fatal failure.  This is hard to reproduce (indeed, my
steps to reproduce include Try this about 30 times until it fails.
While on a single machine, this is not a big deal, distributed over 400
heavily used public machines, it's becoming a real problem), but the fix
is easy and a no-op, so I would hope it would be considered anyway.

As of Thunderbird 16, Thunderbird is apparently back to looking in

2012-09-20 Thread Jonathan Reed
I encountered this earlier in the installation, from a 12.04.1 CD
install, and the traceback was in /usr/lib/ubiquity/plugins/ubi-
timezone.py, line 173.

Based on this and some other bugs, it seems like working network is a
hard requirement for Ubiquity, not just a for best results as
described on the installation page.  It's also possible that ubiquity's
network detection code should be more robust.  In my (and many academic
environments), you get a crippled network connection, redirecting you to
a registration page (similar to that found in hotels, free wifi
hotspots, etc).  So to a naive program, it may look like a real
network connection, and all host queries will resolve (to the A record
for the registration page), but anything that expects a working network
will be disappointed.

[Bug 1046490] [NEW] Saving attachment displays error because of null path

2012-09-05 Thread Jonathan Reed
Public bug reported:

When attempting to save an attachment in Evolution 3.2.3-0ubuntu6 on a
clean install, saving the attachment opens a GtkFileChooser initially
browsing the path , which naturally displays an error saying The
folder contents could not be displayed: Operation not supported.  This
is because the key Gconf key /apps/evolution/shell/file_chooser_folder
is set to an empty value.  If set to the user's homedir (e.g.
file:///home/joeuser), or even a sane default (e.g. file:///), this
error is not displayed.   If the user dismisses the error, and navigates
to a valid location in the GtkFileChooser and saves the file, then that
location will be saved in the Gconf key and the error won't recur, but
this is not good user experience.

Steps to reproduce on a clean install of Ubuntu 12.04:

1) Launch Evolution.

2) Configure an e-mail account.

3) Navigate to a message with an attachment

4) Attempt to save the attachment

5) See the error.

6) Run gconftool-2 -s /apps/evolution/shell/file_chooser_folder -t
string file://$HOME

7) Repeat steps 1-4, note that no error occurs.

I had the same situation described in comment #12, and changing screen
resolution, even down to 1024x768, didn't help much.  It did reduce the
flashing and black screen, but not enough to make it really usable.   So
I think that reducing screen resolution makes the problem less bad,
not actually better.

That having been said, with the latest (as of Aug 29) updates, the black
screen and display artifact issues went away, and when Compiz crashes,
Unity manages to restart itself after a short delay, so the machine
isn't completely unusable.

Please look at the other bug report to see if there is any missing

Would that I could, except the other bug is private.   #764414 strikes

Is there any chance of seeing this in Quantal, or is Metacity considered

[Bug 883112] [NEW] python-cups no longer depends on libcups2

Public bug reported:

Somewhere between Natty and Oneiric, python-cups stopped depending on
libcups2.  This makes the package kind of useless, since all attempts to

2011-08-15 Thread Jonathan Reed
Public bug reported:

In Lucid, I could specify a printer with a URI of something like
lpd://username@hostname/queuename.  This no longer works in Natty (to
the point that system-config-printer prevents you from typing the @, and
the CUPS web interface just clobbers everything between the protocol and
the hostname when reading the URI).  This is in direct conflict with
http://localhost:631/help/network.html which explicitly says that
lpd://user@host/queue URLs are supposed to work.

[Bug 818933] [NEW] Dell 790 fails to reboot without either reboot=bios or acpi=off

Public bug reported:

This is pretty much the same thing as #488319 (which happened with a
Dell 760) or #115011 (with a Dell 745).  Basically, every time Dell
comes out with a new workstation, rebooting simply doesn't work when
ACPI is enabled.

The symptom is that it will sit at [  1234.56789 ] Restarting system
forever until power-cycled.

[Bug 670629] Re: EULA not shown for Microsoft Fonts

2011-07-31 Thread Jonathan Reed
We encountered the same thing Bruno saw in comment #14.  It was consistently 
reproducible on Natty when leaving tasksel blank (that is, only installing 
standard), but running a postinstall script that, among other things, pulls 
in fontconfig and ttf-msttcorefonts-installer in the same aptitude transaction 
(a metapackage which depends on both of those and a ton of other things.   The 
problem is actually a poor interaction between those two packages.  Two of my 
colleagues tracked it down:
1) Both packages are unpacked.  Since it's part of ttf-mscorefonts-installer, 
/usr/share/fonts/truetype/msttcorefonts is created and exists.
2) fontconfig is configured first.  fontconfig's postinst helpfully cleans 
up empty all subdirectories under /usr/share/fonts when it's upgrading from 
pre-2.4.0-1 (and since  sorts earlier, it's triggered on a fresh install)
3) ttf-msttcorefonts-installer is now configured, and attempts to write the 
README to a nonexistent directory.

Arguably, fontconfig's conditional is wrong and should use lt-nl,
however msttcorefonts could also fix this by mkdir -p before writing
the README file.  Bugs will be filed for these issues, but I wanted to
leave this comment here in case anyone encounters this in a Google
search and wants to know what the hell is going on.

2011-04-11 Thread Jonathan Reed
This is apparently fixed as of April 11, in that if I create a new local
account and select Ubuntu Classic, I essentially get a Lucid panel.
However, for accounts that used the previously-broken Ubuntu Classic,
I still get appmenu, presumably because the gconf migration path is
broken.

[Bug 436936] Re: gdm upstart job checks /proc/cmdline for single user mode, won't start on post-boot runlevel change

2011-03-17 Thread Jonathan Reed
I tested the new gdm.conf, and confirm that
a) GDM doesn't start in recovery mode
b) GDM does start if I telinit 2 from a recovery mode shell

However, (b) is not particularly helpful, because it still doesn't work
if I choose the Resume option from the Recovery Menu.

All the Resume option does is exit.  From 
/usr/share/recovery-mode/recovery-menu:
  if [ $choice = resume ]; then
exit
  fi

So it's possible that once this is fixed, a bug should be opened against
friendly-recovery to have it run telinit 2 instead of  just exit

This bug is still present as of the latest updates (March 17), and UI
freeze is in a week.  Can anyone confirm whether this change was by
design or not?  Because if there's no way to opt-out of Unity on a per-

then I have to update a lot of documentation and re-train 6000 or so
users between now and April.

[Bug 724604] [NEW] gnome-panel 2.32.1-0ubuntu6 forces Unity on gnome-classic session users

2011-02-24 Thread Jonathan Reed
Public bug reported:

Binary package hint: gnome-panel

The latest release of gnome-panel in Natty seems to have forced the
Unity interface on me while ignoring my session type.  When I specify
Ubuntu Classic at the login screen, I expect to to see a traditional
panel.  Instead I get a Unity-style panel, including the Start Menu
and the menubar/panel combination.

Note: I believe this is a gnome-panel bug that originates from the
changes in made in 2.32.1-0ubuntu6, not a gnome-session bug.

[Bug 436936] Re: gdm upstart job checks /proc/cmdline for single user mode, won't start on post-boot runlevel change

2011-01-25 Thread Jonathan Reed
This bug is still present in Lucid.

It is exacerbated by the fact that recovery mode offers a resume
option which is supposed to return the machine to its normal state.
However, since recovery mode is single user mode, gdm never starts.

It would be great if this was finally fixed in Natty, especially since
it's a one line fix.

[Bug 638211] [NEW] Thunderbird no longer checks /usr/lib/thunderbird for default preferences

2010-09-14 Thread Jonathan Reed
Public bug reported:

Binary package hint: thunderbird

Thunderbird 3.0.7+build1+nobinonly-0ubuntu0.10.04.1 fails to look in
/usr/lib/thunderbird for configuration files.  It now only looks in
/usr/lib/thunderbird-3.0.7.

This is in direct conflict with /etc/thunderbird/pref/thunderbird.js, which 
says:

// You can, with this file and all files present in the
// /etc/thunderbird/pref directory, override any preference that is
// present in /usr/lib/thunderbird/defaults/pref directory.


For our site configuration, we set a new value for
general.config.filename, and store that file in /usr/lib/thunderbird.
This worked fine in Jaunty and Karmic.  However, under Lucid, this
causes Thunderbird to unfortunately exit with Failed to read the
configuration file, since it's looking for our config file in
/usr/lib/thunderbird-3.0.7.

If this is the new upstream behavior, that's fine, but then the comments
in /etc/thunderbird/pref/thunderbird.js need to be updated to replace
this.  Additionally, it would be nice if there was some way to
programmatically determine the name of that directory that was something
other than dpkg-query and sed.

[Bug 538912] Re: xlinks shouldn't replace Firefox as /etc/alternatives/x-www-browser

I would claim that that means that Firefox is Ubuntu's default browser

Indeed, Ubuntu claims this too.  See

(Yes, I know it's community documentation, but it's help.ubuntu.com, not the

[Bug 600390] [NEW] gdm doesn't display contents of /etc/nologin

2010-06-30 Thread Jonathan Reed
Public bug reported:

Binary package hint: gdm

When logins are disabled by the presence of /etc/nologin, GDM simply
responds with Authentication failure after the username is entered.
While what it says is technically true, this is a terrible user
experience.  Ideally, it should display the contents of /etc/nologin.
Failing that, it should at least say Logins are disabled.

The username list is disabled via gconf (/apps/gdm/simple-
greeter/disable_user_list true), so I haven't tested the behavior if the
username list is enabled.

Steps to reproduce:
1) Create /etc/nologin
2) Type a username at the GDM login screen
3) Observe that it says Authentication failure

[Bug 387536] Re: Zenity should ignore markup with a flag

2010-06-16 Thread Jonathan Reed
Any text with an ampersand will trigger the bug.

$ zenity --info --text 'This has an  in it'

The following is printed to stderr:
(zenity:21569): Gtk-WARNING **: Failed to set text from markup due to error 
parsing markup: Error on line 1: Character ' ' is not valid at the start of an 
entity name; the  character begins an entity; if this ampersand isn't supposed 
to be an entity, escape it as amp;

And zenity displays its default All updates are complete dialog
instead of the text.

Ideally, it should be told to ignore Pango markup.  Failing that, the
man page should explicitly inform users that they need to escape
anything that could be interpreted as Pango markup.

[Bug 569212] [NEW] zephyr-clients manpages have incorrect paths

2010-04-23 Thread Jonathan Reed
Public bug reported:

Binary package hint: zephyr-clients

The following manpages reference incorrect paths:  zwgc(1), zctl(1),
zmailnotify(1), xzwrite(1), and zhm(8)

zwgc(1) claims that zwgc_resources and zwgc.desc are in 
/usr/athena/share/zephyr.   They are now in /etc/zephyr.
jdr...@infinite-loop:~$ dpkg -L zephyr-clients | egrep 
zwgc.desc|zwgc_resources
/etc/zephyr/zwgc.desc
/etc/zephyr/zwgc_resources

zctl(1) claims that zephyr.vars is in /etc/athena.  It is in /etc/zephyr
jdr...@infinite-loop:~$ dpkg -L zephyr-clients | grep zephyr.vars
/etc/zephyr/zephyr.vars

zmailnotify(1) claims that zwgc.desc is in /usr/athena/lib/zephyr.  As
noted above, it's in /etc/zephyr

xzwrite(1) claims that XZwrite and xzwrite.bitmap are in 
/usr/athena/lib/zephyr.  They are in /etc/zephyr:
jdr...@infinite-loop:~$ dpkg -L zephyr-clients | egrep XZwrite|xzwrite.bitmap
/etc/zephyr/XZwrite
/etc/zephyr/xzwrite.bitmap

zhm(8) claims that zhm is in /etc/athena.  It is in /usr/sbin:
