Package: avfs
Version: 1.0.0-3
Severity: normal
Dear Maintainer,
as (I suppose) extfs files were moved to /usr/share according to the Debian
policy, avfs should be told to look for it there, but not in /usr/lib.
Otherwise, MC extfs support in AVFS is not present.
The symptoms are:
1) AVFS-based programs (avfsd, worker) cannot use MC extfs (they return
"no such file or directory" when one is trying to open files which should
be supported, like 7-Zip archives)
2) There are messages in syslog, like this:
avfs[$pid]: Could not open extfs config file /usr/lib/avfs/extfs/extfs.ini: No
such file or directory
As we can see,
avfs-1.0.0/modules/extfs.c:
--- cut here: start ---
static int extfs_init(struct vmodule *module)
{
<...>
extfs_dir = av_get_config("moduledir");
extfs_dir = av_stradd(extfs_dir, "/extfs", NULL);
extfs_conf = av_stradd(NULL, extfs_dir, "/extfs.ini", NULL);
fd = open(extfs_conf, O_RDONLY);
if(fd == -1) {
res = -errno;
av_log(AVLOG_WARNING, "Could not open extfs config file %s: %s",
extfs_conf, strerror(errno));
av_free(extfs_conf);
av_free(extfs_dir);
return res;
}
--- cut here: end ---
what does av_get_config() do?
avfs-1.0.0/src/sysdeps.c:
--- cut here: start ---
char *av_get_config(const char *param)
{
<...>
if(strcmp(param, "moduledir") == 0)
val = MODULE_DIR;
--- cut here: end ---
and after the avfs ./configure we can find the MODULE_DIR definition:
../src/info.h:#define MODULE_DIR "/usr/lib/avfs"
Also, ${moduledir} is defined at ./configure-time, but there is no
../configure option for it:
../configure:moduledir='${libdir}/avfs' (line 24297)
so I suggest the following patch to ./configure:
--- cut here: start ---
--- avfs-1.0.0.orig/configure
+++ avfs-1.0.0/configure
@@ -24294,7 +24294,7 @@
LIBS="$LIBS -pthread"
fi
-moduledir='${libdir}/avfs'
+moduledir='${datarootdir}/avfs'
--- cut here: end ---
After applying it the following lines in debian/rules were unneeded:
--- cut here: start ---
# Move the scripts to /usr/share
mv $(CURDIR)/debian/avfs/usr/lib/avfs $(CURDIR)/debian/avfs/usr/share
--- cut here: end ---
When I installed the AVFS version built with these patches, `worker` became
able to open 7-Zip archives via MC extfs #u7z module.
Best regards,
Ivan Krylov.
