Bug#1063730: [Bug #1063730] Clarify that latest master branch code works

2024-02-11 Thread Chad Phillips
Note that I built a custom lua-sql-odbc Debian package by simply
substituting the latest src code on the master branch at
https://github.com/lunarmodules/luasql in place of the current src code at
https://salsa.debian.org/lua-team/lua-sql, and it does in fact resolve the
reported issue.


Bug#1063730: lua-sql-odbc Aborted on con:execute(sql) #135

2024-02-11 Thread Chad Phillips
Package: lua-sql-odbc
Version: 2.6.0-2

This bug is clearly described at
https://github.com/lunarmodules/luasql/issues/135

See this comment, where the maintainer reports the bug as fixed on the
master branch:
https://github.com/lunarmodules/luasql/issues/135#issuecomment-1397405029

However, the Debian package does not contain this fix.

This bug effectively makes the LuaSQL ODBC driver useless on Debian
Bookworm, as I encounter it when issuing any query that is not a SELECT.

I suspect part of the issue is that the last git tag, 2.6.0, was in Sept.
2020, and there have been quite a few commits to the project since then.


Bug#966575: grub-pc: error: symbol `grub_calloc' not found.

This bug appears to affect a standard Vagrant install of Debian Buster as
well. After booting, upgrading, and rebooting, I'm faced with the error.

The Vagrant base box is a fairly common one:

I'm guessing this is a fairly standard disk layout in their build:

I'm using the (admittedly insecure) solution  of "sudo apt-mark hold grub*"
