[Bug 337377] [NEW] please restore netselect package: it's _not_ debian-specific

2009-03-03 Thread Zed Lopez
Public bug reported:

Binary package hint: netselect

As described here:

https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/netselect/+bug/275280

the netselect package was removed in intrepid. The justification is
mistaken: while the netselect-apt package that depends upon netselect is
debian-specific and is better off omitted (if not entirely rewritten),
netselect itself is a general tool with nothing debian-specific about
it.

The problems that omitting it were meant to fix can be fixed entirely by
continuing to omit netselect-apt while putting netselect back in.

[Bug 148727] yaird's Templates.cfg refer to /etc/console/boottime.kmap. In ubuntu, it's under /etc/console-setup

2007-10-03 Thread Zed Lopez
Public bug reported:

Binary package hint: yaird

Yaird's cryptsetup and cryptsetup_luks templates within Templates.cfg
expect boottime.kmap.gz or boottime.kmap to be under /etc/console, but
it's under /etc/console-setup (this was also true in feisty.)

[Bug 148724] 1017_cryptsetup_blkid_test.patch results in failure with LVM2 within LUKS

2007-10-03 Thread Zed Lopez
Public bug reported:

Binary package hint: yaird

I created a LUKS partition, /dev/mapper/cryptdisk,
used LVM2 to create a physical volume, volume group, and logical volume within 
it, intending it to be an encrypted root partition. I used yaird to create a 
boot image, and wrote it to /boot along with an appropriate GRUB entry. (I'm 
skimming a complex procedure, but it's the same things that worked in feisty.)

On booting, the yaird image correctly reports loading my keyboard
settings, and prompts for the LUKS passphrase. On entry, it says:

Unable to identify the filesystem on volume cryptdisk.
Reenter, Ignore, Shell?

Looking at the source, I see that 1017_cryptsetup_blkid_test.patch
modifies the cryptosetup and cryptosetup_luks templates to run
/sbin/blkid on the encrypted device. If blkid's output is the empty
string, it concludes the luksOpen (in the LUKS case) failed.

I haven't tested yet whether this is an effect of the LVM2 partition
inside the LUKS, but on my working setup in feisty, blkid's output for
/dev/mapper/cryptdisk _is_ null. There's output for the logical volume
device under /dev/mapper, there's output for /dev/mapper/cryptoswap,
which has its own entry in /etc/crypttab, but none for cryptdisk.

[Bug 148698] Re: network interface numbers weirdness

2007-10-03 Thread Zed Lopez
I had a similar experience. The installer identified the wireless card
as eth0 and the wired network interface on the motherboard as eth1. But
on rebooting, I had no net access, as they had become eth2 and eth3.
Ifconfig made clear what was happening, so a change to
/etc/network/interfaces and an /etc/init.d/networking restart made for a
quick fix, but this would have stumped a newbie.

It'd be really nice if the installer created /etc/iftab entries for the
identified network interfaces' MAC addresses so this didn't come up,
though it's probably far too late for Gutsy.

[Bug 98955] Re: logd not running

My /var/log/boot contains only (Nothing has been logged yet.) and its
datestamp is from early last month, when I installed Feisty.

So I'm also experiencing logd apparently not running.

[Bug 63429] [Edgy] qemu-make-debian-root hasn't worked since Debian Sarge, and not even then

2006-10-01 Thread Zed Lopez
Public bug reported:

Binary package hint: qemu

 0.8.2-0ubuntu1 installs /usr/sbin/qemu-make-debian-root, a script to
debootstrap a working Debian system into a disk image that can be used
in qemu. It fails first because of a reference to libsigc++-1.2-5c102, a
package that existed in Debian Sarge, but not Debian Sid or Etch, let
alone Ubuntu Edgy.

The script includes this line:

debootstrap 
--exclude=syslinux,at,exim,mailx,libstdc++2.10-glibc2.2,mbr,setserial,fdutils,info,ipchains,iptables,lilo,pcmcia-cs,ppp,pppoe,ppp
oeconf,pppconfig,wget,telnet,cron,logrotate,exim4,exim4-base,exim4-config,exim4-daemon-light,pciutils,modconf,tasksel
 --include=aptitude,libsigc++-1.2-5c102 $DISTRO /tmp/mount.$$ $URL

That causes this failure when trying to build sid, etch or edgy:

E: Couldn't find these debs: libsigc++-1.2-5c102

I tried removing the --exclude and --include parameters from the
debootstrap, and also a subsequent dpkg-remove line that also caused
dependency problems. Then, with this invocation:

sudo qemu-make-debian-root 200 edgy http://us.archive.ubuntu.com/ubuntu
edgy

the debootstrap looked good, but the script concluded thus:

I: Configuring pcmciautils...
I: Configuring console-setup...
I: Configuring console-tools...
I: Configuring ubuntu-minimal...
I: Base system installed successfully.

If you created or changed a DOS partition, /dev/foo7, say, then use dd(1)

(See fdisk(8).)
Done.

It did result in a file called edgy, but trying to use that in qemu resulted in 
qemu hanging after saying Booting from Hard Disk...

Making a Debian Sid image (with an unmodified qemu-make-debian-root)
resulted in the same messages and result.

Finally, the script is written to create only the root user, and assigns
the password 'root', i.e., it results in an installation unlike any
conventional Ubuntu installation (though one could get the same results
with debootstrap.) Perhaps an appropriate Ubuntuization would be to
prompt for a login name and password, and to create an ordinary user in
sudoers.

[Bug 61487] Edgy Knot 3 i386 alternative install CD: requested Dvorak during server install, got QWERTY

2006-09-20 Thread Zed Lopez
Public bug reported:

Did a server install from the Edgy Knot 3 i386 alternative install CD.
Requested Dvorak. After installation, the active keymapping in the
console was QWERTY.

Requesting Dvorak during a text installation of Ubuntu from the Knot 3
i386 alternative CD works -- the keymapping is Dvorak both in Gnome and
in the virtual consoles.
