Okay. Well, not a big deal I guess, just a spurious dependency.

Uhm, this is very problematic. Thanks for the heads up, Joss. Let’s work
together with -boot now, because their input is going to be indispensable
in order to ensure we completely fix the problem.

There are two parts to the problem: (a) packages with buggy shlibs
files, and (b) packages with buggy dependencies. (Some packages are in
both groups.) Let’s take group (b) first; Joss, you can skip this part
and go for group (a) below.

So, for group (b), I tried to guess which packages need a rebuild. My
lack of knowledge about d-i internals made me believe that all udebs
should be depending on other udebs only, but this seems not to be the
case.

So I went for a list of udebs in unstable that depend on non-udebs,
except those dependencies already in stable. The results are mostly in
hppa, and mostly related to the directfb transition. So, on hppa:

          package            |       dependency      
-----------------------------+-----------------------
 cdebconf-gtk-udeb           | libcairo2
                             | libdirectfb-1.2-0
                             | libglib2.0-0
                             | libgtk2.0-0
                             | libgtk-directfb-2.0-0
                             |
 cdebconf-gtk-entropy        | libcairo2
                             | libdirectfb-1.2-0
                             | libglib2.0-0
                             | libgtk2.0-0
                             | libgtk-directfb-2.0-0
                             |
 cdebconf-gtk-terminal       | libcairo2
                             | libdirectfb-1.2-0
                             | libglib2.0-0
                             | libgtk2.0-0
                             | libgtk-directfb-2.0-0
                             |
 gtk2-engines-udeb           | libcairo2
                             | libdirectfb-1.2-0
                             | libglib2.0-0
                             | libgtk2.0-0
                             | libgtk-directfb-2.0-0
                             |
 libdirectfb-bin-udeb        | libdirectfb-1.2-0
                             |
 libcairo-directfb2-udeb     | libdirectfb-1.2-0
                             |
 libgtk-directfb-2.0-0-udeb  | libcairo2
                             | libdirectfb-1.2-0
 libsdl1.2debian-udeb        | libdirectfb-1.2-0
                             |
 libvte9-udeb                | libcairo2
                             | libdirectfb-1.2-0
                             | libglib2.0-0
                             | libgtk2.0-0
                             | libgtk-directfb-2.0-0

So all these will need Bin-NMUs. Additionally, I’d like to draw your
attention on the following ones, so that you can assess whether rebuilds
are needed.

          package           | arch  |          dep          
----------------------------+-------+-----------------------
 libpcre3-udeb              | i386  | libc6
 libdirectfb-1.2-0-udeb     | armel | libgcc1
 libdmraid1.0.0.rc15-udeb   | armel | libgcc1
 dmraid-udeb                | hppa  | 1

(Yes, dmraid-udeb depends on a package named “1” on hppa...)

So, -boot, please let us know if you have ways to detect further
breakage, and we can see about that.

---

Regarding group (a), packages with broken shlibs files, they are at
least glib, directfb, cairo and gtk+2.0 on hppa *that we know of*. We
have no easy way of determining which other packages may be affected by
having being built with #518706.

So I guess we can start by Bin-NMUing those, but suggestions about how
to detect further breakage are welcome.

Joss, in particular about glib2.0, though, I don’t see anything broken
in its current shlibs file, which includes lines in the form:

    udeb: libgobject-2.0 0 libglib2.0-udeb (>= 2.20.0)
    udeb: libglib-2.0 0 libglib2.0-udeb (>= 2.20.0)
    udeb: libgmodule-2.0 0 libglib2.0-udeb (>= 2.20.0)
    udeb: libgio-2.0 0 libglib2.0-udeb (>= 2.20.0)
    udeb: libgthread-2.0 0 libglib2.0-udeb (>= 2.20.0)

I’m guessing it was 2.20.0-1 that was affected. The other three are
definitely affected.

---

So, next actions:

  * I schedule Bin-NMUs of directfb, cairo, gtk+2.0 on hppa to fix their
    shlibs files, with appropriate dep-waits.

  * I schedule Bin-NMUs of cdebconf-{,-entropy,-terminal}, gtk2-engines, 
    libsdl1.2 and libvte on hppa dep-waited on the Bin-NMUs above.

  * I do nothing about pcre3 and dmraid unless told otherwise by -boot

  * I wait for ideas, if any, to detect if any other packages have
    broken shlibs files regarding udebs.

Cheers,
