** Description changed: + ============================================================= + Impact: vdeterm failure corrupts terminal + Development fix: restore terminal on failure + Stable fix: same as development fix + Test case: run 'vdeterm', then try 'ls'. Terminal should act as normal when vde has been patched. + Regression potential: this fix has been applied since quantal to the same version, so there should be no risk of regression + ============================================================= + When vdeterm fails at start (such as happens when specifying the wrong vde socket), then it does not restore the terminal. The terminal is thus left in noecho mode. # lsb_release -rd Description: Ubuntu 10.04.2 LTS Release: 10.04 # apt-cache policy vde2 vde2: - Installed: 2.2.3-3 - Candidate: 2.2.3-3 - Version table: - *** 2.2.3-3 0 - 500 http://fr.archive.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/ lucid/universe Packages - 100 /var/lib/dpkg/status + Installed: 2.2.3-3 + Candidate: 2.2.3-3 + Version table: + *** 2.2.3-3 0 + 500 http://fr.archive.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/ lucid/universe Packages + 100 /var/lib/dpkg/status What do I expect: on error, vdeterm should restore the terminal into the state where it found it in What happens instead: the terminal is left with noecho (... and possibly other settings wrong as well...) ** Changed in: vde2 (Ubuntu Lucid) Assignee: Serge Hallyn (serge-hallyn) => (unassigned) ** Changed in: vde2 (Ubuntu Precise) Assignee: Serge Hallyn (serge-hallyn) => (unassigned) ** Changed in: vde2 (Ubuntu Lucid) Status: Incomplete => New ** Changed in: vde2 (Ubuntu Precise) Status: Incomplete => Confirmed ** Changed in: vde2 (Ubuntu Lucid) Status: New => Confirmed -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/804647 Title: vdeterm does not restore terminal when it returns in error To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/vde2/+bug/804647/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
