Package: login Version: 1:4.1.5-1 Severity: normal Dear Maintainer,
If a shell, either dash of bash for instance, is started with the '-c' option it cannot access the tty which breaks job control: fgouget@amboise:~$ su - fgouget -c /bin/bash Password: bash: impossible de régler le groupe de processus du terminlal (-1): Ioctl() inappropré pour un périphérique bash: pas de contrôle de tâche dans ce shell In contrast, if one just lets 'su' start the shell itself everything works fine: fgouget@amboise:~$ echo $SHELL /bin/bash fgouget@amboise:~$ su - fgouget Password: fgouget@amboise:~$ Yet I would expect both commands to have the same effect. One consequence is that it breaks sux: http://bugs.debian.org/cgi-bin/bugreport.cgi?bug=659832 Investigating this further, in dash this happens because the following ioctl fails: fcntl(2, F_DUPFD, 10) = 10 ... ioctl(10, TIOCGPGRP, [32664]) = -1 ENOTTY (Inappropriate ioctl for device) Given this and the fact that reverting to 4.1.4.2+svn3283-2+squeeze1 fixes the issue, I strongly suspect this is a consequence of the fix for bug #628843. http://bugs.debian.org/cgi-bin/bugreport.cgi?bug=628843 -- System Information: Debian Release: wheezy/sid APT prefers testing APT policy: (500, 'testing'), (500, 'stable') Architecture: amd64 (x86_64) Kernel: Linux 3.1.0-1-amd64 (SMP w/4 CPU cores) Locale: LANG=fr_FR.utf8, LC_CTYPE=fr_FR.utf8 (charmap=UTF-8) Shell: /bin/sh linked to /bin/dash Versions of packages login depends on: ii libc6 2.13-27 ii libpam-modules 1.1.3-7 ii libpam-runtime 1.1.3-7 ii libpam0g 1.1.3-7 login recommends no packages. login suggests no packages. -- no debconf information -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to debian-bugs-dist-requ...@lists.debian.org with a subject of "unsubscribe".
