 Sorry, you've really got to ask the kernel maintainers; it's a kernel
 bug, not a GDB bug.

It seems to be fixed with 2.6.25, at least it didn't reproduce there
for me sofar.

Bug#475206: gdb: SIGTRAP interfering with debugging

2008-04-10 Thread Richard Guenther
I see this behavior as well when debugging gcc.

ii  gdb6.8-1
ii  linux-image-2. 2.6.24-5

it doesn't happen with

ii  linux-image-2. 2.6.22-6

so I suspect the i386/x86_64 arch merge might have broken this.

Bug#430665: libnet-snpp-perl: install-stamp rule invokes make install with bogus arguments

2007-06-26 Thread Richard Guenther
Package: libnet-snpp-perl
Version: 1.17-2
Severity: normal

(libnet-snpp-perl just chosen as example, this bug report applies to
all perl modules)

debian/rules has

install: install-stamp
install-stamp: build
dh_testdir
dh_installdirs
$(MAKE) install PREFIX=$(b)/usr

which is wrong for the upstream perl distribution which creates

DESTDIR =
PREFIX = $(VENDORPREFIX)
PERLPREFIX = /usr
SITEPREFIX = /usr
VENDORPREFIX = /usr
INSTALLPRIVLIB = /usr/lib/perl5/5.8.8
DESTINSTALLPRIVLIB = $(DESTDIR)$(INSTALLPRIVLIB)
...

so it seems that

$(MAKE) install DESTDIR=$(b) PREFIX=/usr

would be more portable.  [I actually have a custom built perl 5.8.8
installed that I used to build libnet-snpp-perl]

Would it be possible to change the rules file to this scheme?

Thanks,
Richard.

Bug#427911: kaffeine crashes using libxine after upgrade to 0.8.4-3 or 0.8.4-4

2007-06-23 Thread Richard Guenther

On 6/23/07, Christopher Martin [EMAIL PROTECTED] wrote:

 After the update to kaffeine 0.8.4-3 or kaffeine 0.8.4-4 kaffeine
 crashes as soon as its trying to access libxine (either trying to
 play video or just entering the xine configuration settings dialog).

 Downgrading to kaffeine 0.8.4-2 fixes this problem.

I experience this crash as well, but only if using the opengl video
output plugin. Switching to xv eliminates the problem.


Right, I also use the opengl video output plugin.  xv doesn't work for me
and xshm is very slow.

FTBFS because it is in Dep-Wait on thunderbird-dev = 2.0.0.0 which is a 
transitional package.  Should instead depend on icedove-dev.

 Richard,

 Thanks for the bug report, but from your description I suggest it maybe a 
libxine issue.

 Could I ask you to install the kaffeine-dbg package and forward the crash 
report to this bug.

 Reinhard, Darren, Are you happy for me to reassign this bug to kaffeine?

install libxine1-plugins solved this problems


Yes, that fixes the crash for me.

Thanks,

Bug#370249: [gcc bug #27884] use of register in function declarations

2006-06-04 Thread Richard Guenther
On Mon, 5 Jun 2006, Brendan O'Dea wrote:

 Re: http://gcc.gnu.org/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=27884
 
 Hi Richard,
 
 Could you please expand on your comment:
 
   It's certainly a questionable use of 'register'.  What is the
expected effect of this parameter declaration from perls point of
view?
 
 My copy of an [admittedly old C9X standard] states both that:
 
 6.7.1 Storage-class specifiers
  4: A declaration of an identifier for an object with storage-class
   specifier register suggests that access to the object be as fast
   as possible.  [...]
 
 and:
 
 6.7.5.3 Function declarators (including prototypes)
  2: The only storage-class specifier that shall occur in a parameter
   declaration is register.
 
 So given that register parameters to a function are both legal, and
 potentially make accesses fast, could you please expand on wht that is a
 questionable use of 'register'?

Note that I specifically did not say the code is invalid, but only
questionable because of desired semantics.  The storage-class for
function parameters is specified by the ABI in effect, so any additional
storage-class specifier (being it only one valid one, register) has
no effect there anyway.  So, a good cleanup for perl would be to drop
usage of the 'register' storage-class specifier.  That it is rejected
by gcc in this case is still a gcc bug.

Richard.

Bug#303791: yelp: Yelp cannot display documentation in texinfo .info format

2005-04-08 Thread Richard Guenther
Package: yelp
Version: 2.6.5-1
Severity: normal


Yelp doesn't support displaying help in texinfo .info format as shipped
with applications like glame, which had a transition from Gnome1 to
Gnome2.  From using Google I see that yelp in principle should support
displaying .info files.

There is bug #301845 about libgnomevfs2-common which may be related.

 Which version of yelp and how do you get it to display an info pacakage? I 
 need
 to be able to reproduce this to be able to test it ;)

The current (unstable) version of yelp, try f.i. installing the glame
package and open the online-help.  Glame still distributes its online-doc
as .info manuals - and I guess it's not the only package.

 It was removed from the debian package during the 2.6 series, because it was
 buggy..

Yes, I saw this in the changelog, but it was removed along with several
other modules, so maybe just keeping one of them for viewing .info files
works ;)

Thanks,
Richard.
