I use Wheezy. I have been using Debian since Potato, as I remember, I started with Debian just after Y2K. I started out to write about the debian-testing ML but first I need help with a crazyness in my mail system that I just noticed, and must be a reinstall of wheezy that I completed a few days ago.
I use Mutt to read mail, Emacs is invoked to write mail, Fetchmail gets mail via pop3 from my ISP, Procmail sorts it to mailboxes, and mstmp sends email back to my ISP. When I started everybody on this list who seemed to be an old timer assured that this tool chain was the right and proper way to do email (and never, ever, use html in email ;-). Now when I started this email, I get a long string of error messages in a form that I have never seen before. Here is a sample of a few lines: <start> [0x8c579e8] main libvlc error: vlc_object_find_name("puzzle") is not safe! [0x8c579e8] main libvlc error: vlc_object_find_name("puzzle") is not safe! [0x8c579e8] main libvlc error: vlc_object_find_name("magnify") is not safe! [0x8c579e8] main libvlc error: vlc_object_find_name("clone") is not safe! [0x8c579e8] main libvlc error: vlc_object_find_name("clone") is not safe! [0x8c579e8] main libvlc error: vlc_object_find_name("wall") is not safe! [0x8c579e8] main libvlc error: vlc_object_find_name("wall") is not safe! [0x8c579e8] main libvlc error: vlc_object_find_name("wall") is not safe! [0x8c579e8] main libvlc error: vlc_object_find_name("erase") is not safe! [0x8c579e8] main libvlc error: vlc_object_find_name("erase") is not safe! [0x8c579e8] main libvlc error: vlc_object_find_name("erase") is not safe! [0x8c579e8] main libvlc error: vlc_object_find_name("erase") is not safe! [0x8c579e8] main libvlc error: vlc_object_find_name("marq") is not safe! <end> This appears in the window that was running Mutt and displaying the incoming email until I pressed the final keystroke that transitioned me to Emacs. What is this? And what can I do to fix it? IMHO this should not happen in a plain vanilla stable release, or have I violated a recently established rule of proper behavior? Also, I just noticed that the last two lines are: Error: Incorrect password Error: Incorrect password But never before have I had to enter a password, to write an email and,, in reality, I wasn't offered an opportunity to enter a password. I attribute this to haveing having installed the most subnumber release (7.6???), but that is just a guess. Please help.
