Yes, there's a bug.

Those Mandriva forums can't be the best given the snippet below. It hardcodes 
firefox.

Yeah, right, don't fix the syntax error right away (already reported btw) but 
use a script
from somewhere else loosing the feature that the altarnative and KDE settings 
are taken
into account ;-)

It does.

#505429 btw. (And kde-open-url is in -common, so the bug should
be assigned to -common anyway).

Bug#505512: apt: alias --no-install-recommends to -R

[Yves-Alexis Perez]

Package: apt
Version: 0.7.18
Severity: wishlist

Hi,

I saw that --no-install-recommends was added, and it's fine, really. Could a
short option (-R, like aptitude?) be added too, so it comes easy?

Thanks for the work and cheers,

I do not consider this a very satisfactory fix. Why can't you change
the code to allow those filenames? If that's not possible, couldn't
the manpage at least give the rationale for what seems like an
arbitrarily limiting restriction on the admin?

But nothing's holding you from doing a strip on the .kos.  I think I did
that too somewhere because I also noticed the problem of huge module
files, but IIRC it was an environment variable set for KBuild.  Maybe
a rgrep could reveal something...

The only reason that I have not updated it is that I simply did not know
that there were updates to it. Unfortunatly I have a bit too many packages
to maintain and do not regularly check all packages, whether they are
the most recent version or not. Now when I look I see that there is actually
a wishlist bug against the package that I must have missed.

Do you know if any Debian bugs has been fixed with this release?

 There is no Applications menu, this is default in afterstep but has been 
removed in the debian build of 
afterstep. Saved sessions is not working either. I noticed the options disabled 
in the rules file. Is there a 
reason for this ? If not can you please re-enable these options.

Bug#331414: Processed: Re: #331414: xfce4-battery-plugin Consumes too much CPU time

[Michael Gilbert]

hello,

> could you please justify why you reopened the bug report and reassigned

i believe that this is the same bug since hald is exhibiting the same
behavior as xfce4-battery-plugin.  i reassigned to hal because i
wanted to retain the past information in the bug log (in case any of
it is useful), rather than opening a new one.

> it to hal, when Yves-Alexis clearly said this is not a bug is hald.

his was a response to only the second part of a compound question.  he
was saying that an xfce utility did not instruct hald to operate in
this manner -- hence the problem must be with hald itself.  this is
why i have reassigned the bug hal.

hope this sufficiently answers your question.  best wishes.

Hi,

I'm new, and am interested in getting started as a Debian Maintainer. 
I'm not exactly sure on how this works, but I'm willing to take over

I have good experience in working in Ubuntu development.

Thanks,

Bug#505497: nmzmail: uninitialised value error

[Jason Lewis]

Package: nmzmail
Version: 0.1.3-3
Severity: normal

When I run nmzmail from cron, I get the following error:

"Use of uninitialized value $value in concatenation (.) or string at 
/usr/bin/mknmz line 2100."

I believe it worked when I installed nmzmail a few months ago but it stoped 
working when I upgraded something on my system (not sure what that was though)

Hope that helps.

Bug#489132: upgrade apt/aptitude first

I'm finding this discussion of apt/aptitude somewhat confusing.
I rendered the text to html, did a proof-read, and came up with
the attached patch against r5510.

Does this help simplify things?
There are a handful of copy-editing changes along the way.

Bug#505496: syslinux: default64 doesn't work after after reloading "config" file.

[Frank Lin PIAT]

Package: syslinux
Version: 2:3.71+dfsg-5
Severity: normal

In the attached example (built with the script below), the idea is to 
automatically
load vesamenu from isolinux.cfg. Then it is possible to quit the vesa menu (to 
use
the F1 and F2 help screen. If one press "Enter", default or default64 should be 
run.

The way we quit vesamenu is to invoke "config menu.cfg".

The problem it's that before vesamenu.c32, default64 is obeyed... but after we 
quit
vesamenu.c32 the entry "default" is obeyed when a user press enter (even for 
amd64).


Franklin


Note: As a work around, in the attached "menu.cfg", it is possible to use 
"default run-autodetect" which uses ifcpu64.c32 for cpu detection.

[Frank Lin PIAT]

Version: 2:3.71+dfsg-5
Severity: normal

The module ifcpu64.c32 doesn't work as expected under virtualbox.

If we build a simple test image with the script below.

qemu-system-x86_64 works as expected.

Bug#503632: Python scripts load modules from current directory

[Alex Romosan]

as intended, i guess, this patch breaks loading modules from the
current directory but i have scripts that need to load extra modules
from the current directory. how does one do it now? i've modified my
scripts to do

import sys
sys.path.append(".")

import Module

but this seems silly. shouldn't the current directory be appended to
the end of the system path so system modules are loaded first and then
if they don't exist they are loaded from the current directory?

Bug#439888: Macaulay2 on debian

[Daniel R. Grayson]

Dear Debian people,

I'm one of the two authors of Macaulay2 and I'd like to get it into the
repositories for debian and ubuntu.

I think I've done everything required for our version 1.1 months ago.  The
needed files are visible in our repository at

   http://www.math.uiuc.edu/Macaulay2/Repositories/

I know it works, because we tell our users to add our repository to the apt-get
list, and I use ubuntu all the time.

We are now working on releasing version 1.2, and I'd like to get in the
official repositories, too.

Is there anything I can do to help to make this happen?  The process seems to
have stalled.

Bug#498905: r-n suggest installing package which does not exist

[Tobias Scherer]

Hello,

I tried to create the attached patch for Bug #498905 which removes 
initrd-tools from the release notes and provides the information of gdm||
kdm||xdm restart, that was related to initrd-tools before, now after 
apt/aptitude installation.

I did an update etch -> lenny by doing 
# apt-get install apt aptitude
first. 
Several packages were updated and gdm||kdm||xdm restart was done as well.

Regards
Toby

It seemed to me that handling the automatically installed packages list was a 
new feature of apt-get. And, running aptitude would create a list of 
automatically installed packages based on the packages already installed, then 
convert it for apt use, no matter if apt or aptitude was the preferred package 
manager used before. But, now that you say that, I have a doubt.


Daniel, have only the users who previously used aptitude to convert the 
automatically installed packages list or also the users who never used aptitude 
before ?


Thanks.

Bug#493768: intent to NMU

[dann frazier]

hey,
  As these bugs have been open with a patch for over a month and
without a rejection from the maintainer, I intend to NMU the
associated package in a week's time (or sooner, if requested by the
maintainer).

If you do not wish for this NMU to occur, please send a follow-up in
the bug report stating as such or, better yet, fix it in an MU :)

Unless you request otherwise, any NMUs I upload will be to the DELAYED
queue, so you will have an additional week to supersede my upload with
an MU to prevent it from entering unstable.

Bug#505487: ITP: ann -- Approximate Nearest Neighbor Searching library

[Rafael Laboissiere]

Package: wnpp
Severity: wishlist
Owner: Rafael Laboissiere <[EMAIL PROTECTED]>


* Package name: ann
  Version : 1.1.1
  Upstream Author : David Mount <[EMAIL PROTECTED]>
Sunil Arya <[EMAIL PROTECTED]>
* URL : http://www.cs.umd.edu/~mount/ANN/
* License : LGPL
  Programming Lang: C++ and Octave
  Description : Approximate Nearest Neighbor Searching library

ANN is a library written in C++, which supports data structures and
algorithms for both exact and approximate nearest neighbor searching
in arbitrarily high dimensions.  ANN assumes that distances
are measured using any class of distance functions called Minkowski
metrics. These include the well known Euclidean distance, Manhattan
distance, and max distance. ANN performs quite efficiently for point
sets ranging in size from thousands to hundreds of thousands, and in
dimensions as high as 20.

The necessary autotools support (autoconf, automake, and libtool) has been
added to this package, in order to generate a shared library, thanks to the
initial work done by Alexander Bornik.  This package will eventually become
a dependency of the octave-ann package (not yet released, see Bug#480760).

A preliminary version of the package can be found at:

http://alioth.debian.org/~rafael/ann/

The Debian files are maintained at:

[Tobias Scherer]

Hello,

Maybe this will fit into the moreinfo.dbk of Debian release notes
I hope I did right, taking most of the text from 
http://www.debian.org/releases/proposed-updates.en.html
If this is fine I can offer a german version, too.

The proposed-updates mechanism

If you get frustrated by waiting for some bugs to be fixed in Lenny you might 
want to check the proposed-updates repositories.
All changes to the released, stable (and oldstable) distribution go through an 
extended testing period before they are accepted into the arch
ives. Each such update of the stable (oldstable) release is called a point 
release. Preparation of point releases is done through the propose
d-updates mechanism. Accepted packages are uploaded to a separate repository 
called proposed-updates (oldstable-proposed-updates).
To use these packages with APT, you can add the following lines to your 
sources.list file:
  # proposed updates for the next point release
  deb http://ftp.us.debian.org/debian etch-proposed-updates main contrib 
non-free

Note that the /debian/mirrors (http://www.debian.org/mirror/list) will have 
this, it is not necessary to use this particular one, the above choice of 
ftp.us.debian.org is just an example.
New packages can arrive into proposed-updates when Debian developers upload 
them either to proposed-updates (oldstable-proposed-updates), or
to stable (oldstable). Debian's Stable Release Team regularly reviews the 
packages and decide whether to accept or reject them.
It should be noted that packages from security.debian.org are copied into the 
proposed-updates directory automatically. At the same time, packages that are 
uploaded directly to proposed-updates (oldstable-proposed-updates) are not 
monitored by the Debian security team.
The current list of packages that are in the proposed-updates repository can 
be seen at http://ftp-master.debian.org/proposed-updates.html 
(http://ftp-master.debian.org/oldstable-proposed-updates.html).

Bug#505486: [openoffice.org-writer] oowriter can't open links in a document using external browser

[Valerio Passini]

Package: openoffice.org-writer
Version: 1:3.0.0-4
Severity: normal
Tags: patch

--- Please enter the report below this line. ---
Hi Renè,

I hope you will find this bug report useful even if it's referred to 
experimental branch, but it is about the upcoming 3.0 version of openoffice. 
Well, I have noticed that just in case you press hyperlinks contained in a 
document, openoffice complains about: Openoffice could not find a web browser 
on your syste. Please check your desktop preferences or install a web browser 
(e.g.: Mozilla), blah blah blah...
Obviously the browser is in its place, and BTW there are at least three 
browsers it can use (firefox, konqueror, epiphany). I have tried to check the 
default browsers in /etc/alternatives, purging packages, almost everything. 
Finally, googling around I have found in a mandriva forum (they are the best, 
trust me ;D) that the problem is related only to KDE and the script  
/usr/lib/openoffice/basis3.0/program/kde-open-url.
The original script gives this error in console:
/usr/lib/openoffice/program/../basis-link/program/kde-open-url: line 7: `  else'

So I have just copy/paste the script from the mandriva forum and it worked:

#!/bin/sh

# special handling for mailto: uris
if echo $1 | grep '^mailto:' > /dev/null; then
kmailservice "$1" &
else
firefox "$1" &
fi

exit 0

I hope this script doesn't rise other bugs...

Bug#505485: wengophone: Does not refresh tray icon

[Alex]

Package: wengophone
Version: 2.1.2.dfsg0-6
Severity: normal

Wengophone (shortcut WGP in this report)(qtwengophone executable) tray 
icons remains not drawed some time after the
startup. In Kicker, the normal Kicker background will appear instead of 
the WGP icon. This phenomenon happens for all,

or just a part of the icon.
One way to trigger the bug everytime is to enable Kicker tray icon 
hiding, then hide some icons (but not WGP).
After hiding press the unhide arrow of the tray to show the hidden 
icons. Notice that the WGP icon is gone.

Forcing a redraw will show the WGP icon (entirely or partly).

This directory show the reality of the sync, be carefull, you mirror
armel, hurd-i386 and powerpc as well :
http://kebo.vlsm.org/debian/pool/main/b/base-files/
It's only a notice for you.

Obviously, we can list fewer architectures than the reality.

It may be good to list kambing.vslm.org as Debian mirrors since it had

Don't forget to tell us if you do so.

I had the same problem, it was solved when I upgraded
xserver-xorg-input-evdev to 1:2.0.99.3-1.

I also think you can work around this by adding 
Option "AllowEmptyInput" "off" to ServerLayout. At least that's the info
given here:

When the user would only install apt as it is its preferred package manager, he 
should also install aptitude because, in the next step, aptitude must at least 
be executed one time for making it convert its list of automatically installed 
packages for use with the lenny version of apt. (see Bug#497445)

I have not checked yet, but you are probably right: IIRC we do not strip
anything and instead we just call make to build the kernel.  I guess
that the switch to kernel-package will solve this issue as well.

Bug#497445: Document how to convert the aptitude automatically installed, packages list for use with apt?

[Giovanni Rapagnani]

Please find below a note for this issue. I would insert it just under the 
section where we suggest to first upgrade apt and aptitude.



The first time the lenny version of aptitude is run, it will read in
its list of automatically installed packages and convert it for use
with the lenny version of apt (which can handle automatically-installed
information). If you use apt as package manager, you should at least issue one 
aptitude command to do the conversion. For instance, searching for no package:


  aptitude search "?false"

Since Lenny now contains images based on 2.6.26, did you have a chance to

Why? UTF-8 uses 0x80 - 0xff, not 0x00 - 0x31.

Bug#505481: /usr/bin/iceape: stop doesn't stop

[Gordon Haverland]

Package: iceape-browser
Version: 1.1.12-1
Severity: normal
File: /usr/bin/iceape

I got caught up in the USA election, and was visiting CNN Politics 
regularly.  Towards the end of the election, they came up with an IFRAME 
ticker.  This ticker will take 100% CPU if you let it, and the stop 
button does nothing to stop it.  I have visited other sites that also 
seem to accumulate large amounts of CPU time for hours after I have seen 
the site (and left the browser active on that site).

Turning off IFRAME in NoScript works, but really isn't the answer.  Ajax 
can be annoying, and this is one situation where it is.  There has to be 
some way of turning off this "out of bounds" programing when we don't 
want it.  I would have hoped that the STOP button in the browser would 
do this.  But, this button has absolutely no idea that something else is 
running, if it isn't the "main page", or so it seems to me.

I want to be able to visit a site and see information is a second or 
two.  At that point, I want ALL interaction initiated by that page to
cease!  I am willing to hit the STOP button to do this.  Many hours 
later, I might want to refresh the page, to see new information.  I will
hit the STOP button again if need be.  Is this something we can get?

Ok. This was a misunderstanding because I was convinced you meant for

silly reading of your words.

Does this error still occur with more recent kernel versions?

If you're running Etch, could you try to reproduce this bug
with the 2.6.24 based kernel added in 4.0r4?

Bug#505450: First impressions.

[Raúl Sánchez Siles]

retitle 505450 konqueror crashes due to pdf preview.
reassign 505450 kdegraphics-kfile-plugins
thanks

  Hello:

  Thank you very much for your bug report. Unfortunately we will need more 
info to figure out where the problem could be exactly.

  Could you state what libpoppler-qt2 package version are you using? You could 
try this command to find out: apt-cache policy libpoppler-qt2 |grep '\*\*\*'

  In order to get a full, proper backtrace, would you mind installing 
degraphics-dbg and poppler-dbg packages?

  Does this happen on all pdf files? If not, could you please send/attach an 
example file.

  With the infomation you provide, it's quite probably that's a crash/bug in 
poppler, but before we are sure I will be reassigning to 
kdegraphics-kfile-plugins, which is more specific than konqueror.

  Thanks, regards,

argv[0] is used to seed the value that is prepended to sys.path.

You can take a look at what PySys_SetArgv does at
http://svn.python.org/view/python/branches/release25-maint/Python/sysmodule.c?rev=54836&view=markup

What it boils down to in the simple case is checking for the existence
of a path separator in argv0.  If that doesn't exist, then a PyString is
created from argv0 with size 0 and sys.path is prepended with that --
empty string used for the first element of sys.path.

> My first entry in sys.path is then the directory above the current
> directory.  The filter you added in the patch doesn't change anything.

This is incorrect.  In Vim's current code, PySys_SetArgv is called with
an argv that is simply an empty string (and a terminating NULL
sentinel).  This causes sys.path's first element to be the empty string,
thus causing any Python import statements to use Vim's current working
directory as the first location to check for the requested module.

The filter specifically removes any elements in sys.path that evaluate
to false (i.e., the empty string).

Using the attached print_sys.path.diff, the following is printed when I
start Vim (the sys.path before and after my suggested filter() command):

['', '/usr/lib/python2.5', '/usr/lib/python2.5/plat-linux2', 
'/usr/lib/python2.5/lib-tk', '/usr/lib/python2.5/lib-dynload', 
'/usr/local/lib/python2.5/site-packages', '/usr/lib/python2.5/site-packages']
['/usr/lib/python2.5', '/usr/lib/python2.5/plat-linux2', 
'/usr/lib/python2.5/lib-tk', '/usr/lib/python2.5/lib-dynload', 
'/usr/local/lib/python2.5/site-packages', '/usr/lib/python2.5/site-packages']

You can also test it with the simple pytest.c that I've attached by
specifying different arguments as the first element of the argv passed
to PySys_SetArgv.

$ gcc -o pytest $(python-config --cflags) $(python-config --ldflags) pytest.c
$ ./pytest ''
['', '/usr/lib/python2.5', '/usr/lib/python2.5/plat-linux2', 
'/usr/lib/python2.5/lib-tk', '/usr/lib/python2.5/lib-dynload',

Bug#505297: ncurses-base: Wrong terminfo for xterm keys up, down, end, home

[Thomas Dickey]

On Tue, 11 Nov 2008, J??rg Sommer wrote:


Package: ncurses-base
Version: 5.7-1
Severity: normal

Hi,

I'm in an XTerm (package version 237-1):

% echo $TERM
xterm
% infocmp -L G -Eo 'key_(home|end|up|down)=[^,]*'
key_down=\EOB
key_end=\EOF
key_home=\EOH
key_up=\EOA

but XTerm sends these sequences:

% read
^[[B^[[4~^[[1~^[[A

They match the sequences defined for the linux console and comply with
the recommend ???9.8. Keyboard configuration??? of the Debian Policy:

% infocmp -L linux G -Eo 'key_(home|end|up|down)=[^,]*'
key_down=\E[B
key_end=\E[4~
key_home=\E[1~
key_up=\E[A

So you should change the terminfo for xterm otherwise some programs might
not work, because they expect wrong key sequences read from the terminfo.


Actually the only impact I've seen is on bash users, who typically
hardcode their function key definitions.  (This is of interest only
to Linux users, since it would make it incompatible with everyone
else, so it's up to the package maintainer if he chooses to add
a nuisance).

Mark, does the problem still exist for you with the current Lenny packages?

Mmmmh, it seems that bugzilla.kernel.org is another upstream BTS which
quite annoyingly requires creating an account in order to allow users to
report bugs...  
I am already going mad remembering tens of passwords for various
boxes/services: if I start creating one account for the upstream BTS of
each Debian package I use and want to report bugs for, my brain will
really explode!
That's why I love the Debian BTS, it lets users interact with it via
e-mail, without requiring any account creation process.

Could you please forward this bug report to bugzilla.kernel.org?
Thank you in advance.

Bug#491116: jackd: Unreasonable xrun numbers

[Frank Rocholl]

Hi,

I've the same behaviour on my Lenny system:
alsa_pcm: xrun of at least 1226435427565.568 msecs

Here some more information:

ii  jackd0.109.2-3
ii  linux-image-2.6.25-2-686 2.6.25-7
ii  linux-image-2.6.26-1-686 2.6.26-8

It seems to be a Kernel related issue. If I boot 
a kernel, that I've compiled on my own (2.6.23.14 from
kernel.org with additional realtime patch),
my xruns shows normal values.


Regards

Frank

Bug#404367: some debugging

[Thiemo Nagel]

merge 456763
thanks

I think the bug mentioned above is a duplicate.

I've analysed a case in which pressing keys '1234' lead to output 
'12234'.  The following is some debug output.  The 
duplicate keypresses are seen by ProcessKeyboardEvent() while 
xserver-xorg-input-keyboard's kbd.c does see the correct number of 
keypresses (cf. to bug 456763 for that result).

Thanks for the patch.

I'm making a few changes, and testing it.  I'll post back here with the git log.

Bug#505477: partman hangs if you press "Go Back" after warning message

[Knut Auvor Grythe]

Package: partman-base
Severity: important


This might be a partman-lvm issue instead, I'm not quite sure.

When doing manual partitioning, selecting a physical lvm partition and pressing
Enter the following message is displayed with a red background:

"Partition in use
 No modifications can be made for the partition #6 of device IDE1 master (hda)
 for the following reasons:

 In use by LVM volume group vg1"

If you select "Go Back" in this dialog, an empty blue screen is displayed.
Killing partman did not seem to help (although I might have been killing the 
wrong stuff).

Pressing "Contine" returns me to partman, like I expected "Go Back" would.

Bug#505474: pax: Where are the other two interfaces?

Good point.  If you hard link the executable to 'tar' or 'cpio', it will
supposedly emulate those user interfaces.  But since we already have tar
and cpio packages in Debian, I don't do anything to try and deliver
those links.  So the right answer is to remove that text from the
package description, I think.

Bug#505474: pax: Where are the other two interfaces?

[Reuben Thomas]

Package: pax
Version: 1:1.5-16
Severity: minor


The package description (which could usefully be reformatted slightly,
so that "supported:" comes on the previous line), says that pax supports
the cpio and tar user interfaces, but nothing in the package that I can
find tells you how to use those interfaces. Perhaps the Debian package
of pax does not in fact support this interface? Either it should be
documented, or the claim removed.

Bug#505473: crashes when viewing www.eroski.es

[Santiago Garcia Mantinan]

Package: mozilla-plugin-gnash
Version: 0.8.3-6
Severity: grave

Hi!

I've been testing gnash for some time and found that the version in testing
crashes when entering www.eroski.es (machine using testing with linux kernel
from testing, arch i386) I had gnash set to pause on load.

I have upgraded to the version on unstable and works ok, so this bug only
applies to the version on testing, as specified on the bug.

Here are some of the messages I'm getting:

In what case would that misbehave?

Note that I suggested filtering only when stdout is a terminal.

Bug#493988: rancid-core: subprocess post-installation script returned error exit status 1

[Evgeni Golov]

tags 493988 patch
thanks

Hi,

attached you find a simple patch which will modify rancid-core.postinst
to call adduser only when the rancid user does not exist (that won't
change the UID/GID to a system-one, but should still work fine).

regards
Evgeni

That screen is already pretty full. We just don't have the space to 
document every possible boot option there.
