--- Begin Message ---Package: svgalib-bin Version: 1:1.4.3-21 Severity: normal The textmode(1) script starts off like so: ----begin---- #!/bin/sh dir=/etc/vga [ -w "$dir" ] || dir="$HOME/.vga" .... ----end---- It checks whether or not /etc/vga is writable, even though it will only be reading saved VGA state files. If you had previously run savetextmode(1) as root, but then run textmode(1) as a user, the restore* programs will read from ~/.vga, even if it does not exist. (This script is not part of the svgalib upstream; it is brought into being by the 001_fhs_transition patch.) Aside from this issue, I notice that the script uses both of the VGA state files (in a given directory) even if only one is present. May I suggest a different approach? ----begin---- textregs= fontdata= for dir in /etc /etc/vga "$HOME/.vga" do test -r "$dir/textregs" && textregs="$dir/textregs" test -r "$dir/fontdata" && fontdata="$dir/fontdata" done test -n "$textregs" && restoretextmode -r "$textregs" .... case "$textregs" in /etc/vga/*) ;; /etc/*) echo >&2 "WARNING: ..." ;; esac ----end---- -- System Information: Debian Release: 3.1 Architecture: i386 (i686) Kernel: Linux 2.6.11-1-k7 Locale: LANG=C, LC_CTYPE=C (charmap=ANSI_X3.4-1968) Versions of packages svgalib-bin depends on: ii libc6 2.3.2.ds1-22 GNU C Library: Shared libraries an ii libsvga1 1:1.4.3-21 console SVGA display libraries -- no debconf information

(Closes: #376006) - As a side effect, there's no problem anymore with not using the C locale when using bracket expressions. (Closes: #343597) * Fix bashisms by removing svgalib-bin.preinst (which was handling an upgrade path from oldstable to stable) and replace -a with && inside a [] in libsvga1.postrm. * Now using Standards-Version 3.7.2 (no changes needed). * Switch to debhelper compatibility level 5. * Update FSF's address. * Make textmode look at /etc/vga when run as user, and remove old warning about files directly under /etc. (Closes: #324766) Thanks to Daniel Richard G. <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> for the initial patch. * Use LSB sysvinit output functions, thus svgalib-bin Depends on lsb-base. * Remove unused commented lines and GZIP setting in debian/rules. * Fix massive amounts of typos. (Closes: #356816, #356817, #356818, #356819, #356820) - debian/patches/030_manpages_typos.patch: New file. Thanks to A Costa <[EMAIL PROTECTED]>.
