** Description changed: Racoon fails to load the crypto modules and therefore fails. This is dues to the racoon-tool improperly checking the version number: It uses the following code to work out the module extensions, but will get the wrong (old) extension on 3.0.x Kernels. (As in Oneiric 1:0.8.0-3ubuntu1) $modext = ( $kver =~ /^2\.6\./ ? ".ko" : ".o" ); + + SRU Justification: + + ====== + IMPACT: + * racoon fails to load necessary modules on oneiric if installation uses racoon-tool administrative front-end to manage configuration. This is optional (debconf question at racoon pkg installation). If racoon-tool is chosen over directly editing config, /etc/init.d/racoon init script makes use of racoon-tool which does is broken on oneiric due to a bug in kernel version detection in racoon-tool.pl + + ADDRESSED: + * racoon-tool.pl is maintained in Debian and has since been fixed to properly parse 3.x kernel versions as wel as 2.6.x. It has been fixed in the latest Ubuntu development version since ipsec-tools 1:0.8.0-9ubuntu1. + + REPRODUCE: + * apt-get -y install racoon. Choose 'racoon-tool' at the first debconf question. '/etc/init.d/racoon start' reports dozens of errors similar to: FATAL: Module seed. not found. + + REGRESSION POTENTIAL: + * Minimal. oneiric is the only affected release as its the only Ubuntu release running a 3.x kernel with an affected ipsec-tools package. + ======
