Re: unbreaking LibreOffices tests on at least release architectures

Can I suggest that if you file a few bugs and add some information in it so 
that maybe someone can look at it? If it only affects one architecture, send a 
mail to that list asking for help.

The problem with a mail like this is that it really doesn't help anybody
in understanding the problem. As porter, it will probably take a lot of
time to get to the point where you can start looking at what the problem
might be. It contains lots of information, but it's not clear what the
problem is and what needs to be looked at.

Is this something the porter should look at? Is is relevant?

It's a segfault, this should normally be trivial for you to debug,
but is probably complicated for a porter to find out how to do things
like attaching a debugger to the relevant process.

Is this some openjdk problem, not a problem in libreoffice problem?

So the (TCP?) connection is not alive? Why not? That doesn't seem to be
platform specific. Is that a problem in the test suite, and not
libreoffice itself?

And then the test suite crashes because it can't actually deal
with the previous the assertion failure, and the segfault above
is not relevant at all?

The most likely thing is that this is not a platform specific issue,
but a either a general issue that just shows up on some platforms for
whatever reason, or some problem in an other piece of software that
libreoffice is using that does have a pratform specific issue.

I have a hard time understanding what you're trying to say. Do you think Debian 
doesn't have any developers/porters anymore? Or maybe that they're not actually 
using it for a desktop, and so the package isn't actually useful to anybody?

 I think all machines except stadler and sompek are US IIIi machines. The
 problem with US IIIi is, that sun never published the cpu specs - they would
 have done it if somebody would have paid for the lawyers to look trough them
 before publishing. US IIi support was implemented by a student working at SUN
 under NDA and US IV and later was published. So I think if dropping (official)
 support for US IIIi CPUs would keep the port alive, we should do that. Running
 Debian on the more recent machines makes more sense anyway imho. The older
 ones are nice, but they consume a lt of power.

If you drop support for US II and IIIi, we basicly have 2 boxes
left, of which one acts as sparc buildd and the other as sparc64
and sparc buildd.  Those 2 boxes in their current state really
can't keep up, specially since they're not stable at all when
trying to use multiple cores.  You would also be missing a
porterbox.

I thought the plan was to drop 32 bit support and move to sparc64?
But that still doesn't seem to have moved to the Debian archive.
Is there something holding back moving to sparc64?

There is also Matthias Klose mail asking what to do with gcc.
sparc is still on gcc-4.6 and I think he isn't willing to
maintain that any longer.

gdlpp-usecpp.o clearly wasn't build using -fPIE, which should
also be in the CFLAGS (if you wanted to have PIE enabled)

dpkg-buildflags shows this when enabling pie:
CFLAGS=-g -O2 -fPIE -fstack-protector --param=ssp-buffer-size=4 -Wformat 
-Werror=format-security
CPPFLAGS=-D_FORTIFY_SOURCE=2 CXXFLAGS=-g -O2 -fPIE -fstack-protector

FFLAGS=-g -O2
LDFLAGS=-fPIE -pie -Wl,-z,relro

 It looks from here like LDFLAGS is being set to -fPIE -pie
 -Wl,-z,relro -Wl,-z,now on the build machine unconditionally and isn't
 coming from dpkg-buildflags. I can't replicate that on a porterbox.

We do not set anything special on the buildds.  We clearly don't
default to enabling pie.  But it looks like it's CFLAGS / LDFLAGS
from a invokation of dpkg-buildflags with different
DEB_BUILD_MAINT_OPTIONS

The only thing we might set up in DEB_BUILD_MAINT_OPTIONS is a
parallel option.

 If you do the switch, please also add mips and mipsel, that would avoid
 you to have to complain in two weeks that these architectures have not
 yet been switched.

Is there a reason not to switch the remaining (release) arches
(ia64, kfreebsd-*, sparc, s390)?  Maybe hurd-i386 too?

I assume you want to release with at least 4.6 on all arches as

there are no known issues.

   here.  Clearly, the off64_t type is not defined in any of the headers.
  I
   have glibc-source installed, and it looks to me like the type may be
   defined there, but the make is not seeing it.
  
  On amd64 off_t and all the others are naturally 64bit. And for 32bit
  code you should rather enable LFS so off_t is 64bit instead of using
  off64_t (adding -D_FILE_OFFSET_BITS=64).
 
 I'm sorry, but I don't quite follow your meaning.  Are you saying I should
 replace all references to off_64t with off_t in readwrite.c?  And  I should
 add -D_FILE_OFFSET_BITS=64 to what file?

off64_t does exist.  You need to do define _LARGEFILE64_SOURCE
(or _GNU_SOURCE), so something like:
#define _LARGEFILE64_SOURCE1
#include sys/types.h

Instead of using a define in the source, you can also use
tell it to the compiler using gcc -D_LARGEFILE64_SOURCE=1

Instead of using off64_t, you could also use off_t and add the
output of 'getconf LFS_CFLAGS' to the gcc command line.  If you're
using a Makefile, that would need to be added to the CFLAGS.

getconf LFS_CFLAGS will output something like something like
-D_LARGEFILE_SOURCE -D_FILE_OFFSET_BITS=64 on arches that need
it.  It will not change anything on amd64 since it's already
64 bit.  Do not just always add those, it will break on some
arches.

If _FILE_OFFSET_BITS is defined, off_t will be replaced
by an off64_t.

If _LARGEFILE64_SOURCE is defined the off64_t type will
be available.

So what most applications want to do is use off_t
and use getconf LFS_CFLAGS.

  I think it's actually a long int (or just long) on amd64, since it's
  already 64 bit long.  I think we have 1 or 2 other arches with
  the same problem.
  
  As far as I know, there is no printf specifier for it, and
  inttypes.h doesn't seem to have anything for it either.
  
  So what you should do is make a configure test to check the size
  and then use something like PRId32 / PRId64.
 
 A configure check probably isn't needed.  You can probably just
 use sizeof(off_t) at compile time.

You can't use sizeof() in an #if, the package is not using configure,
so it seems the easiest way is to cast it to an intmax_t and use
%jd.  I've attached a patch that does that.

I think it's actually a long int (or just long) on amd64, since it's
already 64 bit long.  I think we have 1 or 2 other arches with
the same problem.

As far as I know, there is no printf specifier for it, and
inttypes.h doesn't seem to have anything for it either.

So what you should do is make a configure test to check the size
and then use something like PRId32 / PRId64.

A configure check probably isn't needed.  You can probably just
use sizeof(off_t) at compile time.

If you want to do it at configure time, make sure that you properly
enable LFS support in the configure script.

The proper way to get the CFLAGS for LFS support is:
getconf LFS_CFLAGS

Just doing -D_LARGEFILE_SOURCE -D_FILE_OFFSET_BITS=64 is not
enough and will not work on all arches in Debian.

 1. laptop-mode ist starting to early by default, or hald is starting to late. 
 
 At boot I can see, that laptop-mode wants to get access to hald, but at this

 Which one ? I do not know

I suggest you file the bug against laptop-mode-tools.

If you want you can also file it against the two packages, but I'm
not sure if the tool for reporting bugs allow that.

 2. When starting KDE, and using kwallet, it is recommended, to enter the

 If you will not do it, and you are waiting some minutes (i.e. when your

 I do not know, to which package aor application the process kded is

 If someone can tell me, which packages are involved, I will be pleased, to 
 file a bugreport.

There is an /usr/bin/kded in kdelibs4c2a
and an /usr/bin/kded4 in kdelibs-bin.  You probably want the first.  If
it's wrong, people will reassign the bug.

I don't remember exactly why the kernel was build with 3.4, but it did

i386.  The default gcc version supports building 64 bit binaries, I
suggest you change gcc-3.4 by toolchain.

Anyway, the limits are outdated by now.  I think the current limit is 47

 (courier-authlib_0.58-5_amd64.deb) has a correct looking shlibs file.

The problem is not the shlibs file of courier-authlib, the problem is
that dpkg-shlibdeps for some reason doesn't find the library because of
the rpath that maildrop sets.

  I don't have an amd64 and the amd64 buildd is probably not able to

  have to wait until someone uploads a binary build or the software is
  fixed.

It failed with:
The following packages have unmet dependencies:
  libgtk2.0-dev: Depends: libgtk2.0-0 (= 2.10.7-1) but 2.8.20-5 is to be 
installed

It also needs libgtk2.0-0 libgtk2.0-common from experimental, and sbuild
won't try to install those unless the build dependencies say so.

I've build it manually, it seems to work, so I've uploaded it.

  dpkg (subprocess): unable to execute old post-removal script: Exec

  This is weird, did you use a chroot for building?  It looks like mixed

Looks weird to me too.  And I have to wonder in what state the package
is if it complains about the old postrm script.

The same linker is used for both C and C++.

However, the weird part here is that it's creating a relocatable object
(-r switch, .o file) from other relocatable objects.  I've atleast seen
weird behaviour that way and it's probably better to just create an
archive out of those .o files.  I'm not at all sure if that's going to

And this way is also supposed to work.

  Is there a 2.6.19 in Debian?
 
 I don't think so yet.  I beleive the decision is that etch will use
 2.6.18, which means unstable isn't too likely to move past 2.6.18
 until
 etch is released.
 
 My question was because the original question (see title) asked about a  
 backport of a 2.6.20 fix to the _Debian_ 2.6.19.
 
 It seems that 2.6.19 has some bugs not fixed for the moment and  
 probably harf to fix.
 
 Maybe 2.6.19 will be skipped?


To start, I think you're asking this on the wrong list.  There is
probably is nothing amd64 or even 64-bit about this, and it's probably a
general bug.  debian-kernel@lists.debian.org would be a better list to
ask such questions.

Anyway, I have no idea what bug you're talking about.  I know about
corruption caused by msync(), which doesn't have anything to do with 
ext3, it affects all filesystems.

This bug is actually present in Debian's 2.6.18-3 kernels because
of a backport of 2.6.19 and should get fixed before the release.
Debian's kernel team is actually the one that tracked which change
caused it.

See http://bugs.debian.org/401006 and related bugs.

If you're talking about another bug, it might be a good idea to file a
bug against the kernel package so that they know about it.

It's unlikely that Debian will have an 2.6.19 kernel in unstable since
2.6.20 is probably already out by that time.  In any case, if that's the
bug you're talking about, and we get a 2.6.19 kernel in unstable, it
should be fixed.  If it's not that bug, and you file a bug about it, it
probably gets fixed too.

Sometimes in the event log it shows disks errors.  This is with an SATA

We've replaced the disk, still the same problem.  We've replaced the

I've also tried it using Debian (i386 netinst etch beta3), I've ran a

read-write test, after a short time the disks basicly stops responding.
The led of the disk on the PC is constatly on, instead of most of the
time on, blinking.  At that point, the tests only shows failed sectors.

We've replaced the disk with an PATA disk, and didn't see a problem so
far.

We also have an identical PC that doesn't show any problems.

I really can't do any tests with this, since someone is using it.

tried to ping localhost, which happens to not work.

 So, I wonder, could my box help with the compiling (I have hd and bandwidth

We already have 2 buildds, and 1 can keep up very easy.  We

 Yes. Although most packages are available for amd64, whenever I noticed

Can you give me any list of packages that we should build, are

build?

Note that some of the problems might be temporary, because they
were caused by an other package.  In those cases, it can be just
retried.  I currently don't know any of those types.

Some might be caused by missing build dependencies, and when you
try it you have them installed while the buildd didn't.

Other might for instance be caused by incorrect build
depedencies, where it needed a newer version of it's build
dependency, that wasn't in the archive at the moment it was tried
but is now.  In this case, it's a bug in the package where it
should actually specifiy a correct versioned build dependency.
Even though we could build it at a later time, we don't, and
expect the maintainer to upload a new version with that bug
fixed.

Yet an other type of bug might be some race condition, that
happens to trigger on the buildd but doesn't happen on your host.
For instance, the latest version of tar was unavailable because
of that for some time.  We've uploaded that version since it's
not a regression, and it actually fixes an other important bug.

There might be other type of bugs in packages, which the buildd
might find and you don't, but I currently can't think of any
others.

 So maybe it would be useful to send a STOP instead of TERM signal to the
 process (and an email to the owner), go on with the next package, and 
 let the owner of the machine find out later what went wrong with the 
 build (connecting to the stopped process with gdb and friends).

I don't see the point of this.  It's probably reproducible in
most cases.

Re: buildd failures for amd64?

 Can you give me any list of packages that we should build, are

 Not anymore. I remember a that a few weeks (months?) ago apt-get-ing 
 from testing complained about a lot missing packages. But now at least 
 that works OK again for me.

Those were just problems with migration to testing, those things
sort themself out over time, but it had some help of upload to
testing-proposed-updates.

 The other (other than nagios-plugins) 
 packages I remember compiling when they were unavailable for some time 
 in unstable were sendmail (after a security bug), and ntp 
 4.2.0a+stable-8.2. But both now are available from the testing archive, 
 so both problems have already been noticed.

Afaik, ntp isn't in testing yet on amd64, and I should know.
4.2.0a+stable-8.2 was only in unstable.  Hopefully the new
version we're working on is ready soon, and move to testing fast.

 In this case, it's a bug in the package where it
 should actually specifiy a correct versioned build dependency.
 Even though we could build it at a later time, we don't, and
 expect the maintainer to upload a new version with that bug
 fixed.
 Agreed. 
 
 BTW, are you sure it was builddeps in this case? the build haning in trying 
 to ping localhost seems not to relate to builddeps.

nagios-plugins didn't have a missing build dependency or
anything.  I was trying to explain reasons why something might
fail to build on the buildd and work for you.

 I just noticed that the weekly build of etch for amd64 is now
 3 DVDs. Does this mean that the etch DVDs are now usable?

There are still things in etch that are not installable. 

For instance kde is missing kdewebdev and kdesdk, and gnome is
missing rhythmbox, totem, sound-juicer, gnome-media.

Those are all helps are missing because some other arches have
problems building them.

 But my question is the following. Assuming the problem stems from libGL.a not 
 having been compiled with the -fPIC option. Can I recompile it safely with 
 this option? I downloaded the Debian version of xorg-x11-6.9.0.dfsg.1 but 
 decided to ask the list before continuing.

My guess is that you're trying to link libGL.a which is a
static library, and therefor not build with -fPIC, into a shared
library, which needs to be build with -fPIC.

Instead of /usr/X11R6/lib/libGL.a, you need to link to 
/usr/X11R6/lib/libGL.so.

Both are be part of xlibmesa-gl-dev.

I have no idea why you try to link the static version, but you
shouldn't.

 Yes. It is probably a result from the accidental migration some time ago

Yes, as a result lots of packages are missing.

 As AMD64 is currently being integrated into the main archive, it is

Re: Anyone willing to seed sarge amd64 isos?

 Hi.  Is there anyone (hopefully, more than one person) who's willing to
 seed sarge amd64 dvd ISOs for bittorrent for a while?  I've been stuck
 at 39% and 24% for quite a while.
 
 Edit:  well, it looks like someone has ESP, in that someone just started
 seeding within the last 30 minutes.  Still, if more people could jump in
 that'd be very very helpful (especially since I dunno how long that person
 will be around).  Thanks.

I just started them, and someone started downloading them at 700
KB/s

Why didn't you just download them from one of the mirrors anyway?

I started the bt on bytekeeper.as28747.net, where they're on 
/cdimage-amd64/sarge-amd64/iso-dvd/

 Is there a reason why the simple boot floppy approach is not offered for 
 the amd64 port?

Because nobody put time in it yet to get a 2.6 linux kernel to
fit on a floppy.  Mostly because their are various other ways to
get it working.  i386 doesn't have support for floppy with a 2.6
kernel either, only with a 2.4 kernel.  And we only have a 2.6
kernel.

 Hi folks,
 
 I just (several hours ago) uploaded a new version of ghdl that builds on 
 amd64; the previous versions didn't build. Do I need to do anything to get 
 the amd64 buildds to build it? 
 
 According to http://people.debian.org/~igloo/status.php?packages=ghdl, it 
 doesn't seem like anything is going on with amd64; for all[1] other 
 architectuers, there is at least some status.

You just need to wait until the ghdl source gets on the mirrors.
We do not build from incoming, but only start after dinstall.  So
it should get build in about 10 hours, and be available in about
24 on the amd64 mirrors if it build succesfully.

 Hi,
 
 Does somebody managed to build ghemical?
 
 On the repositories, it is at version 0.90 while the lib and data  
 related packages are 0.91.

Thre is a reason 0.91 is not in the archive.

 I downloaded the source but it fails to build.

 Hi,
 
 I just to try compile example from OProfile docs with strfry(char *) function.
 Seg fault occured when I run result program.

I saw someone else having a problem with it like a week ago, and
expected him to file a bug report about it, but I can't find it.
I'll ask around.

Anyway, this seems to be a known bug.

  The major benefit is though to make it apparant for porters what to look

  One could also make sure that the FTBFS bugs are tagged (user-tagged)
  with [EMAIL PROTECTED] (etc) for example (or [EMAIL PROTECTED] There
  doesn't exist a [EMAIL PROTECTED] for example...), so that one can get a
  nice overview of all the porting bugs. It'd make sense to synchronise
  this across all architectures, so that it is consistent.
 
 http://lists.debian.org/debian-alpha/2005/12/msg00028.html

I have a long list of bug affecting amd64, but I haven't started
with usertags for it.

The (FTBFS) bugs I encouter (as buildd admin) are:
- General bugs affecting all arches.
- General bugs affecting 64 bit arches.
- Bugs affecting some arches (like not using -fPIC)
- Bugs only affecting amd64.

And the later really is the minorty of the problems.

Note that this does not cover runtime problems or something like
that, but they're very simular.

Do we need to have a special usertag for the first kind?  This is
basicly something everybody can look at.  The only reason I can think
of that it requires some tag is that it's better then looking at
those that don't have a tag.

So, I'm open for suggestions on how to tag the first 3 of those.

It seems nobody filed a bug about this yet, will do shortly.

To work around this, first remove libg2c0-dev, then install or
upgrade ia32-libs, then install libg2c0-dev again.

The tar has now been manually extracted and available.  The .deb

There is a proposed patch amd64.debian.net/~aba/diff.jennifer

 You know, amd64 is the only arch to build the monolithic target by
 default. I think that this is because it used to be hard to get
 businesscard CDs for amd64, but we build them now. And also there used
 to be the mirror selection issues which made it harder to install amd64
 than other arches, but those are also now resolved.

The biggest issue we used to have is that we didn't have testing
at all, which resulted in netboot breaking alot.

 So you could just turn off this target. It's mostly only useful for
 debugging non-uploaded udebs during development.

I've been pondering about doind that myself the last few days,
and so I've just did it.

 This was resolved, only to hit the next problem with amd64: The amd64
 archive signing key is not trusted by apt. So currently testing amd64
 installs only work from the netinst CD, all the other install methods,

 This is fixed in apt 0.6.42.2, but it won't reach testing in a while
 due to annoying gcc-4.0 dependencies needing to reach testing first.

We've pushed apt 0.6.42.2 to testing in the amd64 archive.  We
didn't have the problem with the gcc-4.0 dependency and did a
local override to get the new apt in testing.
