** Description changed: + [Impact] + Pd-0.50.2-3 (as shipped with focal) is unable to load the external objects (plugins) shipped in the "puredata-extra" package (which is built from the same source package as "puredata" itself) due to a problem with some symbols that should be provided by libm. The missing symbols are `__exp_finite`, `__log_finite`, `__logf_finite` and `__pow_finite`. The affected externals are: - bonk~ - choice - fiddle~ - sigmund~ The problem appears to come from a change in the symbols when upgrading from glibc-2.30 to glibc-2.31 (e.g. see https://sourceware.org/pipermail/libc-alpha/2020-May/113773.html) + A simple rebuild of the package seems to fix the problem. + + To trigger a rebuild I've added a debdiff that bumps the version number + to "0.50.2-3build1~ubuntu20.04.1" (i hope this is the correct version + scheme for such an upload). + + [Test Plan] - a quick way to check whether the objects can be loaded is by running + A quick way to check whether the objects can be loaded is by running this script (after installing the "puredata-extra" package): ~~~ find /usr/lib/puredata/extra/*/ -name "*-help.pd" -exec pd -nrt -nogui -send "pd quit" {} ";" ~~~ - i've attached the output of such a test run (note the lines starting - with "error:") + I've attached the output of such a (failing) test run (note the lines + starting with "error:") + + + [Where problems could occur] + The rebuild apparently fixes the problem, although a more correct fix would probably be to add "-lm" to the linker-flags when building the plugins. + (This is what upstream did for the Pd-0.51 release). + In order to keep the impact of my patch minimal, i have chosen to just trigger a rebuild. + ProblemType: Bug DistroRelease: Ubuntu 20.04 Package: puredata-extra 0.50.2-3 ProcVersionSignature: Ubuntu 5.4.0-80.90-generic 5.4.124 Uname: Linux 5.4.0-80-generic x86_64 ApportVersion: 2.20.11-0ubuntu27.18 Architecture: amd64 CasperMD5CheckResult: skip Date: Mon Aug 9 11:23:35 2021 ProcEnviron: TERM=xterm-256color PATH=(custom, no user) XDG_RUNTIME_DIR=<set> LANG=C.UTF-8 SHELL=/bin/bash SourcePackage: puredata UpgradeStatus: No upgrade log present (probably fresh install)
