[Bug 1752430] [NEW] tracker-miner-apps fails when /usr/local/share/applications is a link

2018-02-28 Thread Jeff Ebert
Public bug reported:

/usr/local/share/applications is a symbolic link on one of my systems
because I am using xstow to manage packages in /usr/local. There are
valid .desktop files within this linked directory, however.

tracker-miner-apps cannot parse this file/link/directory, so it keeps
trying forever with high CPU usage, and spewing error messages to
syslog.

Feb 28 12:55:25 gallium gnome-session[30827]: (tracker-miner-apps:30995): 
Tracker-WARNING **: Couldn't properly parse desktop file 
'file:///usr/local/share/applications': 'Couldn't load desktop 
file:'/usr/local/share/applications''
Feb 28 12:55:25 gallium gnome-session[30827]: message repeated 40 times: [ 
(tracker-miner-apps:30995): Tracker-WARNING **: Couldn't properly parse desktop 
file 'file:///usr/local/share/applications': 'Couldn't load desktop 
file:'/usr/local/share/applications'']

I worked around the problem by making /usr/local/share/applications and
directory containing symbolic links to .desktop files within the stowed
packages. This is what it looks like now:

jeffrey@gallium:/usr/local/share/applications$ ls -l
total 20
-rw-r--r-- 1 root root 13 Feb 25 20:27 mimeinfo.cache
lrwxrwxrwx 1 root root 61 Feb 28 13:14 thinlinc-setup.desktop -> 
../../stow/thinlinc/share/applications/thinlinc-setup.desktop
lrwxrwxrwx 1 root root 65 Feb 28 13:14 thinlinc-webaccess.desktop -> 
../../stow/thinlinc/share/applications/thinlinc-webaccess.desktop
lrwxrwxrwx 1 root root 62 Feb 28 13:14 thinlinc-webadm.desktop -> 
../../stow/thinlinc/share/applications/thinlinc-webadm.desktop
lrwxrwxrwx 1 root root 75 Feb 28 13:12 vncviewer.desktop -> 
../../stow/tigervnc-Linux-x86_64-1.6.0/share/applications/vncviewer.desktop

After this change tracker-miner-apps seems to be happy.

More generally, it's bad and wrong that an indexer can peg the CPU when
it has a bug. It should limit rescan attempts to a certain number and
then put them on a queue to check infrequently. Would it be just as
aggressive if I created a bad .desktop file? An indexer should be as
tolerant as possible of bad files, IMO.

[Bug 668901] Re: users-admin cannot get authorized from policy kit in VNC session

2010-11-06 Thread Jeff Ebert
Please look again at the process listing in #10. It is running, and I
checked that it is in fact a child of gnome-session. The only gnome-
session running on this machine is the one started by VNC. So, why is
policy kit unable to find this authentication agent? This is the same
issue that I keep seeing. What's the next step?

[Bug 668901] Re: users-admin cannot get authorized from policy kit in VNC session

2010-11-05 Thread Jeff Ebert
I installed Maverick desktop edition in a VM using the ISO image.

After installation, I installed only vnc4server and ssh. I logged in
remotely and started the VNC session. I confirmed that users-admin does
not get an authorization from policy kit. No window appears that says
that it cannot get authorization. (I think that is a regression from
Lucid, by itself.)

Then, I edited the
/usr/share/polkit-1/actions/org.freedesktop.SystemToolsBackends.policy
file manually, as you described. Rather than try to figure out what
tools needed to be restarted, I rebooted after each change to this file.
This is very fast in a VM on my box, so I figured it would be good to
eliminate all variables. In this first edit, I only changed allow_active
to allow_any in both sections of the file and deleted the allow_inactive
lines. After doing so, I was able to get authorized in users-admin
running in the VNC session. I was not able to get authorized in users-
admin running in a local GDM session however.

Next, I edited the policy file manually again, adding back the original
 lines. Again, I rebooted. At this point, I was able to
get authorized in users-admin in both the VNC session and the local GDM
session. Great news!

Finally, I upgraded to the latest packages with "apt-get update && apt-
get upgrade". I changed nothing in /etc/apt, either manually or using
the "Software Sources" GUI. After all of the packages had been
downloaded and installed, I rebooted again. In this final state, I can
no longer get authorization in users-admin running in the VNC session.
It still works in the local GDM session however. The policy file has not
been modified or overwritten by the upgrade process.

[Bug 668901] [NEW] users-admin cannot get authorized from policy kit in VNC session

2010-10-30 Thread Jeff Ebert
Public bug reported:

Binary package hint: gnome-system-tools

This problem appears to be new in Maverick.

Steps:
1. Run users-admin from within a VNC session using my primary user account that 
is in the admin group.
2. Click on any button that requires authorization by policykit, such as Add, 
Delete, or "Advanced Settings".
3. Nothing happens, even after waiting for several minutes. No authentication 
window or error window ever shows up.

I have tried a number of the debugging steps listed in other bugs, and I
have tried the workaround listed in 221363. The patch provided for
"Karmic or newer" is out of date, but I tried a few different variants
of it and none seemed to do any good.

I would be happy to help debug this problem, so at least we can find a
new workaround for Maverick.

Public bug reported:

Binary package hint: gnome-system-tools

In the process of trying to figure out what is happening with bug
#643153, I clicked with the right mouse button in the left panel that
contains the list of current users. The application crashes immediately
without displaying any menu or dialog.

Specifically, I clicked on the Add button first with the left mouse
button, and then clicked the right mouse button in the panel above it. I
do not think both are required for a crash.

[Bug 643153] Re: maverick - 'user settings' hangs being root

2010-10-26 Thread Jeff Ebert
Milan, I was talking about running "gksu users-admin" rather than
logging into a session as root. It is not obvious why that use-case
would not be supported.

At least one other user is seeing the same:
http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=1585421

"In addition, when I run users-admin with a normal user account, nothing
happens when I click on the Add, Delete, and Advanced Settings buttons."

What I mean is that it is the *primary* normal user account that I
created during installation. This seems like a clear regression from
Lucid, and I would like some help debugging it.

** Changed in: gnome-system-tools (Ubuntu)
   Status: Invalid => New

2010-10-25 Thread Jeff Ebert
Reverting to gnome-system-tools 2.30.0-0ubuntu2 (from Lucid) does make a
difference. I also needed to install liboobs-1-4 2.30.0-0ubuntu1.

It eventually works, but outputs this warning:
(users-admin:3551): Liboobs-WARNING **: There was an unknown error 
communicating asynchronously with the backends: Did not receive a reply. 
Possible causes include: the remote application did not send a reply, the 
message bus security policy blocked the reply, the reply timeout expired, or 
the network connection was broken.

That may be unrelated, however.

Karmic.
