It appears that I may have mis-characterized the problem. Now testing with pipewire v0.3.85 — if the TV is on BEFORE the desktop session starts, then HDMI audio works, and "pavucontrol" can be used to switch an audio stream back and forth between analog speakers and HDMI. However, if the TV is turned on AFTER the desktop session starts, "pavucontrol" still finds the HDMI device, and will offer to switch the stream to it, but nothing comes out of the TV speakers. There are new problems with pipewire v0.3.85 — the "pavucontrol" UI is extremely sluggish, for some reason, and the amplitude indicator is either nonfunctional, or sometimes does not appear at all.
Bug#1055825: pipewire v0.3.84 breaks HDMI audio

It forced the removal of pulseaudio (except some libraries), and disabled HDMI audio completely. HDMI output can still be selected in "pavucontrol", and the amplitude indicator wiggles appropriately, but absolutely nothing comes out of the TV speakers. Switching the stream back to the analog speakers works properly; switching to HDMI produces silence. I have now downgraded pipewire to v0.3.65/stable, and everything works properly again. A playing stream can be switched back and forth repeatedly between speakers and TV, with no problems. pipewire v0.3.83 is no longer available in the archive for testing, but something between v0.3.65 and v0.3.84 broke HDMI audio completely, at least with this hardware configuration, which doesn't seem particularly unusual.

Bug#994741: inkscape: Inkscape v1.1 is not being built for amd64 and other architectures
Package: inkscape Version: 1.1-1 Severity: important Inkscape v1.1 is not being successfully built for amd64. It is, however, being built for i386, ia64, ppc64, and sparc64, so it's hard to see why amd64, surely by far the most common, and most tested, architecture, would be omitted. There seem to be some other architectures missing as well. https://packages.debian.org/experimental/inkscape The build logs suggest some kind of misconfiguration of the build environment: Start 303: render_text-gzipped-svg-glyph 303/303 Test #303: render_text-gzipped-svg-glyph ...***Failed0.26 sec Unable to init server: Could not connect: Connection refused Failed to get connection ** (inkscape:2024671): CRITICAL **: 15:19:35.442: dbus_g_proxy_new_for_name: assertion 'connection != NULL' failed ** (inkscape:2024671): CRITICAL **: 15:19:35.442: dbus_g_proxy_call: assertion 'DBUS_IS_G_PROXY (proxy)' failed ** (inkscape:2024671): CRITICAL **: 15:19:35.442: dbus_g_connection_register_g_object: assertion 'connection != NULL' failed end_font_face_cb: font face rule limited support. font-family : 'GeomTest'; src : url(fonts/GeomTest-gzipped-SVG-glyphs.otf) end_font_face_cb: Added font: /<>/testfiles/rendering_tests/fonts/GeomTest-gzipped-SVG- glyphs.otf Background RRGGBBAA: ff00 Area 0:0:110:40 exported to 110 x 40 pixels (96 dpi) Pixbuf::create_from_file: Unrecognized image file format () Pixbuf::create_from_file: Unrecognized image file format () Pixbuf::create_from_file: Unrecognized image file format () 1589 text-gzipped-svg-glyph FAILED text-gzipped-svg-glyph-large SKIPPED 99% tests passed, 1 tests failed out of 303 https://buildd.debian.org/status/fetch.php?pkg=inkscape&arch=amd64&ver=1.1-1&stamp=1629559190&raw=0 https://buildd.debian.org/status/fetch.php?pkg=inkscape&arch=amd64&ver=1.1-1&stamp=1623167725&raw=0 Why should there be a "connection refused" on amd64, when there was not on several other architectures? In any case, this does not appear to be a problem with the compiler or linker, but some kind of build system failure, unrelated to Inkscape itself. Can this not be investigated, and fixed? Inkscape v1.1 was released four months ago, and Inkscape v1.0.2 is extremely buggy, so it would be good if this problem could be fixed soon, or there could be some investigation of the reason why this particular regression test would fail on amd64, but succeed on other architectures, both 32- and 64-bit. This seems to be a problem with the build environment, and it is probably breaking other packages as well. Please look into it as soon as possible.

Bug#973976: libb2-1: please package BLAKE3 library
Package: libb2-1 Version: 0.98.1-1.1 Severity: wishlist Please consider packaging the new BLAKE3 hash library, either as part of the libb2-1 package, or separately. https://www.blake2.net/ https://github.com/BLAKE3-team/BLAKE3 description: We present BLAKE3, an evolution of the BLAKE2 cryptographic hash that is both faster and also more consistently fast across different platforms and input sizes. BLAKE3 supports an unbounded degree of parallelism, using a tree structure that scales up to any number of SIMD lanes and CPU cores. On Intel Cascade Lake-SP, peak single-threaded throughput is 4x that of BLAKE2b, 8x that of SHA-512, and 12x that of SHA-256, and it can scale further using multiple threads. BLAKE3 is also efficient on smaller architectures: throughput on a 32-bit ARM1176 core is 1.3x that of SHA-256 and 3x that of BLAKE2b and SHA-512. Unlike BLAKE2 and SHA-2, with different variants better suited for different platforms, BLAKE3 is a single algorithm with no variants. It provides a simplified API supporting all the use cases of BLAKE2, including keying and extendable output. The tree structure also supports new use cases, such as verified streaming and incremental updates. https://raw.githubusercontent.com/BLAKE3-team/BLAKE3-specs/master/blake3.pdf Thank you. -- System Information: Debian Release: bullseye/sid APT prefers testing APT policy: (990, 'testing'), (500, 'stable-updates'), (500, 'unstable'), (500, 'stable'), (1, 'experimental') Architecture: amd64 (x86_64) Kernel: Linux 5.9.0-1-amd64 (SMP w/4 CPU threads) Locale: LANG=en_CA.utf8, LC_CTYPE=en_CA.utf8 (charmap=UTF-8), LANGUAGE not set Shell: /bin/sh linked to /bin/dash Init: systemd (via /run/systemd/system) LSM: AppArmor: enabled Versions of packages libb2-1 depends on: ii libc6 2.31-4 ii libgomp1 10.2.0-16 libb2-1 recommends no packages. libb2-1 suggests no packages. -- no debconf information

Bug#933773: mdadm: manual page incorrectly documents --size option
Package: mdadm Version: 4.1-2 Severity: normal Tags: upstream The mdadm(8) manual page describes the "--size" option as follows: Amount (in Kilobytes) of space to use from each drive in RAID levels 1/4/5/6. This must be a multiple of the chunk size, and must leave about 128Kb of space at the end of the drive for the RAID superblock. If this is not specified (as it normally is not) the smallest drive (or partition) sets the size, though if there is a variance among the drives of greater than 1%, a warning is issued. However, leaving the size unspecified does not actually work: # mdadm --grow /dev/md/boot1 --size mdadm: option '--size' requires an argument Usage: mdadm --help for help Fortunately, "mdadm --grow --help" explains why: --size=-z : Change the active size of devices in an array. : This is useful if all devices have been replaced : with larger devices.

Bug#902593: reportbug: should "Recommend:" package gir1.2-vte-2.91
Package: reportbug Version: 7.1.10 Severity: normal Currently, reportbug "Suggests:" package "gir1.2-vte-2.91". If this package is not installed, as would be the default for "Suggests:", running reportbug produces the surprising dialog box attached here as an image, requesting installation of that package, on pain of "Falling back to text interface." This is rather unreasonable behaviour. It's probably not appropriate to make that package a dependency, but it should at least be a "Recommends:", so that a default installation avoids this obstacle. Perhaps the intention was to avoid pulling in graphical dependencies on text-only systems, which makes sense. A possible solution would be to create a "reportbug-gtk" package, which included all the graphical code and dependencies, leaving the text-mode version in the original "reportbug" package. Many other text/graphical packages have adopted this split-package solution. -- Package-specific info: ** Environment settings: INTERFACE="gtk2" ** /home/ian/.reportbugrc: reportbug_version "6.6.6" mode standard ui gtk2 realname "Ian Bruce" email "ian_br...@mail.ru" no-cc header "X-Debbugs-CC: ian_br...@mail.ru" smtphost reportbug.debian.org -- System Information: Debian Release: buster/sid APT prefers testing APT policy: (990, 'testing'), (500, 'stable-updates'), (500, 'unstable'), (500, 'stable'), (1, 'experimental') Architecture: amd64 (x86_64) Kernel: Linux 4.16.0-2-amd64 (SMP w/4 CPU cores) Locale: LANG=en_CA.utf8, LC_CTYPE=en_CA.utf8 (charmap=UTF-8), LANGUAGE=en_CA.utf8 (charmap=UTF-8) Shell: /bin/sh linked to /bin/dash Init: systemd (via /run/systemd/system) LSM: AppArmor: enabled Versions of packages reportbug depends on: ii apt1.6.2 ii python33.6.5-3 ii python3-reportbug 7.1.10 ii sensible-utils 0.0.12 reportbug recommends no packages.

Presumably, Debian has a policy against duplicating files, for this exact reason. A better solution would be for the syslinux and extlinux packages to "Depend" on syslinux-common, rather than just "Recommend"ing it, and to split out the documentation into a new syslinux-doc package, and the EFI32 and EFI64 files into the existing syslinux-efi package.

Bug#857718: blender: enable GPU rendering with openCL
Package: blender Version: 2.78.a+dfsg0-4 Severity: important As many people are aware, GPU rendering in Blender with Mesa/openCL is currently broken. HOWEVER, it appears that all the outstanding problems are now fixable, if the appropriate patches and updates are applied to the relevant Debian packages. Therefore, this bug report does not describe a problem with Blender itself, but what changes must be made elsewhere to get GPU rendering working. This is what currently happens when GPU rendering is attempted: https://bugs.debian.org/cgi-bin/bugreport.cgi?bug=848258 https://developer.blender.org/T50522 There are three separate problems visible here; I have filed a Debian bug report, with solution, for each of them: *** implicit declaration of function {lgamma,native_tan} is invalid in C99 *** This results from using an insufficiently up-to-date version of libclc. see here: https://bugs.debian.org/cgi-bin/bugreport.cgi?bug=857710 *** invalid argument type 'X *' to unary expression *** This results from a known bug in LLVM; a patch is available upstream. see here: https://bugs.debian.org/cgi-bin/bugreport.cgi?bug=857623 *** unsupported call to function get_local_size *** This results from a known bug in libclc-amdgcn; a patch is available upstream. see here: https://bugs.debian.org/cgi-bin/bugreport.cgi?bug=857591 All three of these problems are fixable NOW. Once having done that, it might happen that other problems would become evident, but then they could be worked on, too. Or it might happen that GPU rendering would finally just start working. Can these updates be applied to the Debian archive, in the near future? -- Ian Bruce
Bug#857710: libclc-dev: some math functions missing; please upgrade to newer version
Package: libclc-dev Version: 0.2.0+git20160907-3 Severity: important 3D rendering with Blender is one of the most important potential uses for openCL, among programs in the Debian archive. Currently this is not working; see here, for example: https://bugs.debian.org/cgi-bin/bugreport.cgi?bug=848258 Among other problems (which are also being worked on), these compiler warnings are visible: implicit declaration of function 'lgamma' is invalid in C99 implicit declaration of function 'native_tan' is invalid in C99 If other errors had not terminated compilation, these warnings would have eventually turned into linker errors. These functions have only recently been implemented in libclc, and the version in Debian "testing" is not recent enough to include them: $ cd /usr/include/clc/ $ $ find . -type f -exec grep lgamma {} \; -print $ $ find . -type f -exec grep native_tan {} \; -print $ These are the relevant development commits: http://llvm.org/viewvc/llvm-project?view=revision&revision=281565 http://llvm.org/viewvc/llvm-project?view=revision&revision=295920 equivalently: https://github.com/llvm-mirror/libclc/commit/07fa4ae82da5fa75af174f30c498ff160bbf8644 https://github.com/llvm-mirror/libclc/commit/a2593ed8adbf7386f88dfc828cfc32f788ec3983 It appears that the version of libclc in Debian "experimental" includes lgamma(), but not native_tan(), which only became available a few weeks ago: https://packages.debian.org/experimental/all/libclc-dev/filelist Please upgrade the libclc package in the main Debian archive to a newer version, which includes both of the above development commits, so that GPU rendering with openCL will start working. -- System Information: Debian Release: 9.0 APT prefers testing APT policy: (990, 'testing'), (500, 'stable-updates'), (500, 'unstable'), (500, 'stable') Architecture: amd64 (x86_64) Kernel: Linux 4.9.0-2-amd64 (SMP w/4 CPU cores) Locale: LANG=en_CA.utf8, LC_CTYPE=en_CA.utf8 (charmap=UTF-8) Shell: /bin/sh linked to /bin/dash Init: systemd (via /run/systemd/system) -- no debconf information

Bug#827029: udisks2: machine-readable output for "udisksctl loop-setup" and "udisksctl mount"
Package: udisks2 Version: 2.1.7-2 Severity: normal Tags: upstream Contrary to traditional expectations for UNIX command-line utilities (but reminiscent of dumbed-down software systems such as MS-Windows), /usr/bin/udisksctl produces non-informational output, which tells a human user nothing they didn't already know, but makes it difficult to use the results in a script. $ udisksctl loop-setup --file ./linuxmint-17.3-xfce-64bit.iso Mapped file ./linuxmint-17.3-xfce-64bit.iso as /dev/loop0. $ udisksctl mount --block-device /dev/loop0p1 Mounted /dev/loop0p1 at /media/ian/Linux Mint 17.3 Xfce 64-bit. These are not error messages; they are the normal output resulting from successful command execution. Presumably, the output format strings are, respectively: "Mapped file %s as %s." and "Mounted %s at %s." In each case, the first "%s" is simply the command-line argument, and the rest of the text is literal-string boilerplate, so both are completely non-informative. The only useful output is the second "%s", which is the actual result of the command. This should be output by itself, followed only by a newline, so that it can be read and used by a script: LOOP_DEVICE=$(udisksctl loop-setup --file $LOOP_FILE) # --> "/dev/loop0" MOUNT_POINT=$(udisksctl mount --block-device $FILE_SYSTEM) # --> "/media/ian/Linux Mint 17.3 Xfce 64-bit" As it is, in order for these commands to be used in a script, the output must be parsed by regular-expression pattern-matching, or something like that, which is an unnecessary nuisance, and will break as soon as the format string is changed, for any reason. (see below) Please fix this. Let me point out that the output of this program is apparently so unimportant that it hasn't even been internationalized: $ env | grep -e LANG -e LC LC_MESSAGES=fr_CA.utf8 LANG=fr_CA.utf8 LANGUAGE= $ $ pwdd bash: pwdd : commande introuvable $ $ ls foobar ls: impossible d'accéder à 'foobar': Aucun fichier ou dossier de ce type $ $ udisksctl loop-setup --file ./linuxmint-17.3-xfce-64bit.iso Mapped file ./linuxmint-17.3-xfce-64bit.iso as /dev/loop0. $ $ udisksctl mount --block-device /dev/loop0p1 Mounted /dev/loop0p1 at /media/ian/Linux Mint 17.3 Xfce 64-bit. $ If this text isn't necessary for non-English speakers, then it clearly isn't necessary for English speakers, either.

Bug#493366: info2www: not just a typo, but incorrect information
Package: info2www Version: 1.2.2.9-24 Followup-For: Bug #493366 The previously mentioned misspelling of "/vaw/www/" still persists, but the advice given in README.Debian is incorrect in another regard as well. The current default configuration for the Debian apache2 package specifies /var/www/html as the DocumentRoot, so even without the misspelling, the instructions on enabling info2www will fail. Currently, the correct command would be: ln -s /var/lib/info2www /var/www/html/ As mentioned above, the trailing slash specified in the README is unnecessary for the first argument. However, it is just as well to include one for the second argument. If that directory does not exist, this will force an error. Without the trailing slash, if that directory did not exist, a symlink named "html" would be silently created, which is certainly not a satisfactory outcome. -- System Information: Debian Release: 7.1 APT prefers testing APT policy: (990, 'testing'), (500, 'stable-updates'), (500, 'unstable'), (500, 'stable') Architecture: amd64 (x86_64) Kernel: Linux 3.16.0-4-amd64 (SMP w/4 CPU cores) Locale: LANG=en_CA.utf8, LC_CTYPE=en_CA.utf8 (charmap=UTF-8) Shell: /bin/sh linked to /bin/dash Init: systemd (via /run/systemd/system) Versions of packages info2www depends on: ii apache2 [httpd-cgi] 2.4.10-9 ii perl 5.20.2-2 info2www recommends no packages. info2www suggests no packages. -- no debconf information -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to debian-bugs-dist-requ...@lists.debian.org with a subject of "unsubscribe".

Bug#704198: syslinux doesn't rewrite backup boot sector
Package: syslinux Version: 3:4.05+dfsg-6+deb7u2 Severity: normal Tags: upstream After installing Syslinux on a USB flashdrive: syslinux -d /boot/syslinux/ -i /dev/sde1 as described here: http://www.syslinux.org/wiki/index.php/SYSLINUX#Linux -- I found that "dosfsck", from the dosfstools package, isn't happy about it: # dosfsck /dev/sde1 dosfsck 3.0.13, 30 Jun 2012, FAT32, LFN There are differences between boot sector and its backup. Differences: (offset:original/backup) ... This doesn't seem to prevent booting from the partition, but such errors are disconcerting, and presumably the backup is there for a reason. There is some discussion of the technical issues involved here: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/File_Allocation_Table#Technical_design For FAT32 file systems, the reserved sectors include a File System Information Sector at logical sector 1 and a Backup Boot Sector at logical sector 6. While many other vendors have continued to utilize a single-sector setup (logical sector 0 only) for the bootstrap loader, Microsoft's boot sector code has grown to spawn over logical sectors 0 and 2 since the introduction of FAT32, with logical sector 0 depending on sub-routines in logical sector 2. The Backup Boot Sector area consists of three logical sectors 6, 7, and 8 as well. -- but the basic problem seems clear enough. If Syslinux writes its bootloader code into the VFAT boot sector, shouldn't it write a duplicate copy into the backup area? I have attached a copy of the first 32 (512-byte) sectors of the flashdrive partition in question, in case anybody wants to investigate this problem in detail, although it shouldn't be difficult to replicate. -- Ian Bruce -- System Information: Debian Release: wheezy/sid APT prefers testing APT policy: (990, 'testing'), (500, 'stable-updates'), (500, 'unstable'), (500, 'stable') Architecture: amd64 (x86_64) Kernel: Linux 3.2.0-4-amd64 (SMP w/1 CPU core) Locale: LANG=en_CA.UTF-8, LC_CTYPE=en_CA.UTF-8 (charmap=UTF-8) Shell: /bin/sh linked to /bin/dash Versions of packages syslinux depends on: ii libc62.13-38 ii libuuid1 2.20.1-5.3 ii syslinux-common 3:4.05+dfsg-6+deb7u2 Versions of packages syslinux recommends: ii mtools 4.0.17-1 Versions of packages syslinux suggests: ii dosfstools 3.0.13-1 ii os-prober 1.42 -- no debconf information -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to debian-bugs-dist-requ...@lists.debian.org with a subject of "unsubscribe".

Bug#684866: coreutils: 64-bit arithmetic overflow in expr(1)
Package: coreutils Version: 8.13-3.2 Severity: normal quote from expr(1) info file: When built with support for the GNU MP library, `expr' uses arbitrary-precision arithmetic; otherwise, it uses native arithmetic types and may fail due to arithmetic overflow. This appears to actually happen: $ expr 100 \* 100 \* 100 100 $ $ expr 100 \* 100 \* 100 \* 5 500 $ $ expr 100 \* 100 \* 100 \* 9 900 $ $ expr 100 \* 100 \* 100 \* 10 expr: *: Numerical result out of range Note that 10^19 is close to 2^64 : $ bc <<< '10^19 ; 2^64' 1000 18446744073709551616 Any shell in current use offers basic arithmetic facilities; surely the only remaining potential benefit of "expr" is extended-range arithmetic. Why then is it not compiled to do that? Alternatively, it appears that gcc supports native 128-bit integers, at least on some targets, including AMD64. Perhaps use could be made of that feature. http://gcc.gnu.org/onlinedocs/gcc/_005f_005fint128.html See here for a related bug: http://bugs.debian.org/cgi-bin/bugreport.cgi?bug=608832 Package libgmp10, the above mentioned "GNU MP library", has an Installed-Size of 492 (kilobytes?). Package bc, an arbitrary-precision calculator, which appears to be statically linked against its own MP arithmetic library, has an Installed-Size of 260. Surely coreutils can be dynamically linked against some stripped-down library which will solve this problem? It doesn't seem like implementing variable precision arithmetic ("+", "-", "*", "/", "%") and relational ("==", "!=", "<", "<=", ">", ">=") operators should take more than a few tens of kilobytes, maximum. The version of "expr" in the busybox package suffers from the same problem.

Bug#684128: src:debian-installer: allow use of binary units in disk partitioner
Package: src:debian-installer Severity: important Tags: d-i The version 6.0 installer invites users to specify the sizes of disk partitions and volumes in units of "K", "M", "G", and "T". Only later do they find out that what is meant by this is the politically-correct decimal units 10^3, 10^6, 10^9, and 10^12, rather than the conventional binary units of 2^10, 2^20, 2^30, and 2^40. One is only likely to discover this when the installation is complete, and if that is not what was wanted, it is then too late to do anything about it other than wipe the disk and start all over again. This is not a trivial problem. It is quite reasonable, for example, to want to be able to say "this system has eight gigabytes of main memory" and "this system has eight gigabytes of swap space", and have those two values mean the same thing. The difference between a binary and decimal "gigabyte" is over seven percent, not insignificant when allocating filesystem storage. Currently the only solution is to know in advance (probably by learning the hard way) that decimal units are being used, and if binary units are wanted, to write them out in full: 1024, 1048576, 1073741824, etc. This is clearly not adequate. Possible solutions: 1 - AT AN ABSOLUTE MINIMUM: at the point where the use of metric suffixes is suggested, explain that these really are decimal, so that people who want the binary values know that they need to write them out, as above. 2 - Give the suffixes the same binary values that many people would expect them to have, and explain this. There is no need to support the hard disk manufacturers' deceptive marketing strategy. Flash drives are not specified with decimal units. (Are they?) 3 - Let the user choose at the beginning of partitioning whether these units will have binary or decimal meanings, both for specifying new partitions and volumes, and reporting those that are already present, as well as the sizes of physical media. 4 - The disk partitioner is presumably based on GNU parted, which allows either binary ("KiB", "MiB", "GiB", "TiB") or decimal ("KB", "MB", "GB", "TB") units to be used. Explain to the user that they may specify any of these units, and pass them through to parted. 5 - Solution (4) leaves open the question of what units will be used to report volume/partition/disk status. Parted provides the "unit" command for this purpose, as well as that of solution (3). Perhaps this should be made available as a menu option, or in some other way. 6 - Alternatively, if the size of some disk volume is an exact multiple of 2^{10,20,30,40}, report it using the appropriate binary unit, otherwise with a decimal unit. http://www.gnu.org/software/parted/manual/html_node/unit.html Hopefully something can be done about this problem before the next major release. -- System Information: Debian Release: wheezy/sid APT prefers testing APT policy: (990, 'testing'), (500, 'stable-updates'), (500, 'unstable'), (500, 'stable') Architecture: amd64 (x86_64) Kernel: Linux 3.2.0-3-amd64 (SMP w/1 CPU core) Locale: LANG=C, LC_CTYPE=C (charmap=ANSI_X3.4-1968) Shell: /bin/sh linked to /bin/dash -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to debian-bugs-dist-requ...@lists.debian.org with a subject of "unsubscribe".

Bug#675016: ifupdown: don't use PPP updetach option by default
Package: ifupdown Version: 0.7~rc3 Severity: critical Justification: breaks the whole system I have specified this bug as "critical/breaks the whole system", because its effect is that if an external PPP link does not come up for some reason, the system boot fails. It actually gets wedged so hard that you cannot even boot into recovery mode to fix it; the problem can only be resolved with a rescue disk. This is completely unacceptable. According to the ifupdown package changelog, as of version 0.7~alpha4, "ifup -a" will use the "updetach" option for PPP interfaces. This may be an attempt to address the problem described in #127786, #287173, and #347594, wherein it is implied that other boot scripts which depend on the PPP link should be able to rely on it being up by the time they are run. This fails for two reasons. First, the termination of "pppd updetach" does not by any means guarantee that the PPP link is up, only that the attempt was made. It might have timed out and then failed, so other boot processes must be prepared to deal with that contingency anyway. Second, PPP links can go up and down depending on conditions on external WAN links and telephone lines, which are not in any way controllable by the local system or its human administrators. For maximum resiliency, it therefore makes sense to specify the PPP options "persist maxfail 0" in /etc/network/interfaces, so that if the link does not come up on boot, or goes down later, the PPP daemon will keep retrying indefinitely until it does come up. Unfortunately, the combination of these options, a broken WAN link, and the "updetach" option now baked into the ifup binary result in an unbootable system, which cannot even be gotten into recovery mode. This is unacceptable. It is quite inappropriate for "updetach" to be hard-wired into a binary executable, where it can only be removed with a hex editor. However, the patch for #196877, where this change is made, provides another solution to the network dependency problem: "Allow passing PPP options" (presumably in /etc/network/interfaces). If anybody wishes to have the "updetach" behavior, let them specify it there, without forcing it on other installations where it is quite possibly fatal. Suggestion for further work on network dependencies at boot: perhaps this is better handled in a general way for any type of network interface, through hotplug or udev, or something like that? What happens if /etc/network/interfaces specifies "auto eth0/iface eth0 inet dhcp", and the DHCP server is not responding for some reason? Does this also result in a boot failure? Is this not exactly analogous to the PPP situation described above? There seems to be some discussion of these issues in #245642. -- System Information: Debian Release: wheezy/sid APT prefers testing APT policy: (990, 'testing'), (500, 'stable-updates'), (500, 'unstable'), (500, 'stable') Architecture: amd64 (x86_64) Kernel: Linux 3.2.0-2-amd64 (SMP w/1 CPU core) Locale: LANG=en_CA.utf8, LC_CTYPE=en_CA.utf8 (charmap=UTF-8) Shell: /bin/sh linked to /bin/dash Versions of packages ifupdown depends on: ii dpkg 1.16.3 ii initscripts 2.88dsf-22.1 ii iproute 20120105-1 ii libc62.13-32 ii lsb-base 3.2-28 ifupdown recommends no packages.

Bug#578019: libwebkit-1.0-2: makes DNS query for every mouse movement
Package: libwebkit-1.0-2 Version: 1.2.0-1 Severity: important Webkit seems to make a DNS query for every mouse movement event that it receives from the browser window. (This happens with both Epiphany and Midori, so I assume that the problem is in Webkit.) This is easy to reproduce; run the following command (as root): tcpdump -n -i eth0 port 53 (use appropriate network interface for remote DNS server) Then load any random website (say, www.debian.org) into a browser window, and simply move the mouse pointer around in that window, without clicking on anything. This will generate a continuous stream of hundreds of DNS queries, of the following form: 21:54:13.616734 IP client.address.net.55545 > dns.server.net.53: 47984+ A? . (17) 21:54:13.616870 IP client.address.net.55545 > dns.server.net.53: 21375+ ? . (17) 21:54:13.637479 IP dns.server.net.53 > client.address.net.55545: 47984 0/1/0 (92) 21:54:13.638427 IP dns.server.net.53 > client.address.net.55545: 21375 0/1/0 (92) 21:54:13.657687 IP client.address.net.40289 > dns.server.net.53: 53754+ A? .

(17) 21:54:13.678386 IP dns.server.net.53 > client.address.net.40289: 53754 0/1/0 (92) 21:54:13.678841 IP dns.server.net.53 > client.address.net.40289: 43656 0/1/0 (92) 21:54:13.688747 IP client.address.net.34724 > dns.server.net.53: 52909+ A? . (17) 21:54:13.688878 IP client.address.net.34724 > dns.server.net.53: 19941+ ? . (17) 21:54:13.709435 IP dns.server.net.53 > client.address.net.34724: 52909 0/1/0 (92) 21:54:13.710367 IP dns.server.net.53 > client.address.net.34724: 19941 0/1/0 (92) (IP addresses replaced with appropriate hostnames) Presumably, even with a local DNS server, tracing calls to the DNS resolver library would show the same phenomenon. I have to say that I find this behaviour appalling. It seems to be a security issue all by itself, and is probably a symptom of even bigger problems. -- System Information: Debian Release: squeeze/sid APT prefers testing APT policy: (990, 'testing'), (500, 'unstable'), (500, 'stable') Architecture: i386 (i686) Kernel: Linux 2.6.32-3-686 (SMP w/1 CPU core) Locale: LANG=en_CA.UTF-8, LC_CTYPE=en_CA.UTF-8 (charmap=UTF-8) Shell: /bin/sh linked to /bin/dash Versions of packages libwebkit-1.0-2 depends on: ii libatk1.0-0 1.30.0-1 The ATK accessibility toolkit ii libc6 2.10.2-6 Embedded GNU C Library: Shared lib ii libcairo2 1.8.10-4 The Cairo 2D vector graphics libra ii libenchant1c2a 1.4.2-3.3a wrapper library for various spel ii libfontconfig1 2.8.0-2 generic font configuration library ii libfreetype62.3.11-1 FreeType 2 font engine, shared lib ii libgail18 2.20.0-2 GNOME Accessibility Implementation ii libgcc1 1:4.4.2-9GCC support library ii libglib2.0-02.24.0-1 The GLib library of C routines ii libgstreamer-plugins-base0. 0.10.28-1GStreamer libraries from the "base ii libgstreamer0.10-0 0.10.28-1Core GStreamer libraries and eleme ii libgtk2.0-0 2.20.0-2 The GTK+ graphical user interface ii libicu424.2.1-3 International Components for Unico ii libjpeg62 6b-15The Independent JPEG Group's JPEG ii libpango1.0-0 1.28.0-1 Layout and rendering of internatio ii libpng12-0 1.2.43-1 PNG library - runtime ii libsoup2.4-12.30.0-1 an HTTP library implementation in ii libsqlite3-03.6.23.1-1 SQLite 3 shared library ii libstdc++6 4.4.2-9 The GNU Standard C++ Library v3 ii libwebkit-1.0-common1.2.0-1 Web content engine library for Gtk ii libxml2 2.7.7.dfsg-1 GNOME XML library ii libxslt1.1 1.1.26-2 XSLT processing library - runtime ii libxt6 1:1.0.7-1X11 toolkit intrinsics library libwebkit-1.0-2 recommends no packages. libwebkit-1.0-2 suggests no packages. -- no debconf information -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to debian-bugs-dist-requ...@lists.debian.org with a subject of "unsubscribe".

Bug#497037: flightgear: unclear where to put airport data files
Package: flightgear Version: 1.0.0-3+b1 Severity: normal The file "/usr/share/doc/flightgear/README.Debian" says: Additional scenery is available at http://www.flightgear.org/. They should be unpacked into /usr/share/games/FlightGear/Scenery. This works fine for the regular scenery files. However, the FTP servers offer a directory called "AirportsOverlay/", which seems to contain additional airport data; as is, there seems to be a hole in the scenery around the airports, except for the runways. It appears that this directory, and the data files therein, are nowhere mentioned in either the Debian package documentation, or that on the project website. Could the README file above be updated, to explain where the airport files should be unpacked, or how they should be made available to the program? I am aware of the file "/usr/share/games/FlightGear/Docs/README.scenery", from the "fgfs-base" package.

Package: grub-pc Version: 1.96+20080724-7 Severity: critical Justification: breaks the whole system I installed grub because lilo wouldn't boot any more. My root fs is on lvm; I don't know if this is related. After running "grub-install" and rebooting, grub drops into the "grub rescue>" prompt. The "pc", "lvm", and "ext2" modules are loaded, "ls" finds the root volume, and the variable "root" is set appropriately. Investigation shows that if the following commands are issued: insmod normal normal -- then the boot menu specified by "grub.cfg" appears, and the system boots properly. It turns out that the file "core.img" does not contain the string "normal". It seems like this problem should be easy to fix. -- Package-specific info: *** BEGIN /proc/mounts /dev/mapper/volume11-root / ext3 rw,errors=remount-ro,data=ordered 0 0 /dev/mapper/volume11-root /dev/.static/dev ext3 ro,errors=remount-ro,data=ordered 0 0 /dev/mapper/volume11-home /home ext3 rw,errors=continue,data=ordered 0 0 /dev/mapper/volume11-usr /usr ext3 rw,errors=continue,data=ordered 0 0 /dev/mapper/volume11-var /var ext3 rw,errors=continue,data=ordered 0 0 /dev/mapper/volume11-work /work ext3 rw,errors=continue,data=ordered 0 0 *** END /proc/mounts *** BEGIN /boot/grub/device.map (hd0) /dev/sda (volume11-root) /dev/mapper/volume11-root *** END /boot/grub/device.map *** BEGIN /boot/grub/grub.cfg # # DO NOT EDIT THIS FILE # # It is automatically generated by /usr/sbin/update-grub using templates # from /etc/grub.d and settings from /etc/default/grub # ### BEGIN /etc/grub.d/00_header ### set default=0 set timeout=5 insmod lvm set root=(volume11-usr) search --fs-uuid --set b2a61cc9-be9a-43a2-9ca6-900dc4e01ea1 if font /share/grub/ascii.pff ; then set gfxmode=640x480 insmod gfxterm insmod vbe terminal gfxterm fi ### END /etc/grub.d/00_header ### ### BEGIN /etc/grub.d/05_debian_theme ### set menu_color_normal=cyan/blue set menu_color_highlight=white/blue ### END /etc/grub.d/05_debian_theme ### ### BEGIN /etc/grub.d/10_hurd ### ### END /etc/grub.d/10_hurd ### ### BEGIN /etc/grub.d/10_linux ### insmod lvm set root=(volume11-root) search --fs-uuid --set cbcda803-4997-4932-bd61-f8bd0a168859 menuentry "Debian GNU/Linux, linux 2.6.26-1-amd64" { linux /boot/vmlinuz-2.6.26-1-amd64 root=/dev/mapper/volume11-root ro initrd /boot/initrd.img-2.6.26-1-amd64 } menuentry "Debian GNU/Linux, linux 2.6.26-1-amd64 (single-user mode)" { linux /boot/vmlinuz-2.6.26-1-amd64 root=/dev/mapper/volume11-root ro single initrd /boot/initrd.img-2.6.26-1-amd64 } menuentry "Debian GNU/Linux, linux 2.6.25-2-amd64" { linux /boot/vmlinuz-2.6.25-2-amd64 root=/dev/mapper/volume11-root ro initrd /boot/initrd.img-2.6.25-2-amd64 } menuentry "Debian GNU/Linux, linux 2.6.25-2-amd64 (single-user mode)" { linux /boot/vmlinuz-2.6.25-2-amd64 root=/dev/mapper/volume11-root ro single initrd /boot/initrd.img-2.6.25-2-amd64 } menuentry "Debian GNU/Linux, linux 2.6.18-6-amd64" { linux /boot/vmlinuz-2.6.18-6-amd64 root=/dev/mapper/volume11-root ro initrd /boot/initrd.img-2.6.18-6-amd64 } menuentry "Debian GNU/Linux, linux 2.6.18-6-amd64 (single-user mode)" { linux /boot/vmlinuz-2.6.18-6-amd64 root=/dev/mapper/volume11-root ro single initrd /boot/initrd.img-2.6.18-6-amd64 } ### END /etc/grub.d/10_linux ### ### BEGIN /etc/grub.d/30_os-prober ### ### END /etc/grub.d/30_os-prober ### ### BEGIN /etc/grub.d/40_custom ### # This file is an example on how to add custom entries ### END /etc/grub.d/40_custom ### *** END /boot/grub/grub.cfg -- System Information: Debian Release: lenny/sid APT prefers stable APT policy: (990, 'stable'), (500, 'unstable'), (500, 'testing') Architecture: amd64 (x86_64) Shell: /bin/sh linked to /bin/bash Kernel: Linux 2.6.26-1-amd64 Locale: LANG=en_CA.UTF-8, LC_CTYPE=en_CA.UTF-8 (charmap=UTF-8) Versions of packages grub-pc depends on: ii debconf [debconf-2.0]1.5.11etch2 Debian configuration management sy ii grub-common 1.96+20080724-7 GRand Unified Bootloader, version ii libc62.7-13 GNU C Library: Shared libraries ii liblzo2-22.03-1 data compression library ii libncurses5 5.6+20080713-1 shared libraries for terminal hand grub-pc recommends no packages. -- debconf information: grub-pc/linux_cmdline: fillme grub-pc/chainload_from_menu.lst: true -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe".

The file will only get replaced when the login package is upgraded. Updating the version dependency in passwd will ensure that this happens. Even if the administrator has edited the file, apt-get will give them the option of replacing it, as well as the option of reviewing the differences between the current and new versions. As things are now, unless you already know where these deprecated parameters are coming from, there is no indication of what the cause of the problem is. Changing the version dependency in passwd will automatically make administrators aware of the issue, after which fixing the problem is trivial. Then you won't need to have any more discussions with people to explain what the source of the problem is. -- Ian Bruce -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe".

As it is now, there is absolutely no indication of where these parameters may be found, so if you don't already know, you're out of luck. As for fixing the deprecated options, they're included in the version of login from the current stable archive.

Bug#368845: ISA ethernet device is renumbered on every reboot
Package: udev Version: 0.091-2 I have a Pentium I system with a fresh installation of Debian/stable. I upgraded it to run a v2.6 kernel ( linux-image-2.6.15-1-486 ), which pulled in udev as a dependency. Subsequently, I discovered that the network interface had stopped working. Investigation shows that the cause of the network malfunction is that the ethernet device number is incremented on every reboot, and consequently, the "/etc/network/interfaces" file, which is configured for "eth0", cannot find it. This seems to be related to the fact that the file "/etc/udev/rules.d/z25_persistent-net.rules" gets a new entry added on every reboot: # UNKNOWN device (/class/net/eth0) ACTION=="add", SUBSYSTEM=="net", DRIVER=="?*", SYSFS{address}=="00:20:35:XX:YY:ZZ", NAME="eth0" # UNKNOWN device (/class/net/eth0) ACTION=="add", SUBSYSTEM=="net", DRIVER=="?*", SYSFS{address}=="00:20:35:XX:YY:ZZ", NAME="eth1" # UNKNOWN device (/class/net/eth0) ACTION=="add", SUBSYSTEM=="net", DRIVER=="?*", SYSFS{address}=="00:20:35:XX:YY:ZZ", NAME="eth2" This went up to "eth7" at one point. If I delete this file and reboot, then everything works fine: the network interface comes up as "eth0", and the network init scripts configure it properly. But on the next boot, it comes up as "eth1", and everything breaks. Subsequent reboots produce "eth2", "eth3", and so on. I understand that the intention of this mechanism is to produce persistent device names for the same physical device, while other hardware is being added or removed. But in this case, it is producing exactly the opposite result: the device name changes with every boot, while the hardware configuration remains the same. The network configuration of this system is as simple as it could possibly be: there is one ISA ethernet card, the driver for which is loaded by the "etc/modules" file. It seems like the default udev configuration ought to be able to handle this situation without manual intervention. Whether this problem also affects PCI ethernet cards, I do not know. It doesn't seem to be an issue with the kernel driver; if I manually "ifconfig" the device, it starts working immediately. -- Ian Bruce -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe".

I've been trying to figure out what kernel package I'm supposed to use to run Linux v2.6 on a Pentium I, which is what the NFS server in question is. Do you have any idea about that? I should mention that the NFS client was running Linux v2.6, although I don't see why that should matter; presumably the NFS wire protocol is still the same. I have some recollection about seeing it mentioned in the documentation somewhere that exporting root filesystems might be a problem, because of something about the device ID. I can't find that now; I suspect it was in an earlier version of the NFS packages. As soon as I manage to get Linux v2.6 running on the server, I'll try all four permutations of 2.4/2.6 on the client and server and see what happens. -- Ian Bruce -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe".

Bug#365134: confirmation of severe xdm bug
I'd like to confirm the seriousness of this bug. I have a pre-Xorg X-server, but I thought I would try upgrading xdm to see if that would fix some minor problems associated with "/etc/init.d/xdm restart". Instead, it broke the X-server completely. The original submitter is correct that xdm looks for some executables in the wrong places: # strings /usr/bin/xdm | grep usr /usr/bin/xrdb /usr/bin/xterm -ls /usr/bin/xterm /usr/lib/X11/xdm/chooser :0 local /usr/bin/X :0 /bin:/usr/bin:/usr/bin:/usr/ucb /etc:/bin:/usr/bin:/usr/bin:/usr/ucb /usr/lib/X11/xdm/libXdmGreet.so The file /etc/X11/xdm/Xservers has the same wrong location for the X-server binary. I was able to fix this with a few symlinks, but if I hadn't seen his report of what the problem was, I wouldn't have had a clue. # ls -l /usr/bin/X /usr/bin/xrdb lrwxrwxrwx 1 root root 5 2006-04-28 14:48 /usr/bin/X -> X11/X lrwxrwxrwx 1 root root 8 2006-04-28 14:48 /usr/bin/xrdb -> X11/xrdb In order to fix this reliably, why not give the PATH variable a reasonable value, and then let execlp() find the actual location of the executables? Either that, or have the xdm package create these same symlinks. As the original report says, it is also necessary to change the references in /etc/init.d/xdm and /etc/X11/default-display-manager from "/usr/bin/X11/xdm" to "/usr/bin/xdm". It's hard to see how this problem arose, because these files all come from the same package; there's no question of a version conflict. -- Ian Bruce -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe".

Bug#364760: can't export server root filesystem
Package: nfs-kernel-server Version: 1:1.0.7-9 I find that it's impossible to successfully export a root filesystem which is locally mounted from a hard disk. All other exports involving the same client/server pair work fine; it only fails when the client attempts to NFS mount the server's root filesystem. server filesystem (from /bin/mount): /dev/hda1 on / type ext3 (rw,errors=remount-ro) server /etc/exports entry: / 192.168.0.0/16(sync) No error message appears in the logs when the server starts, but attempting to NFS mount the server root produces a "Permission denied" error on the client, and the following entry in the server logs: Apr 25 06:30:21 server mountd[17596]: authenticated mount request from client:988 for / (/) Apr 25 06:30:21 server mountd[17596]: getfh failed: Operation not permitted Conversely, when the root filesystem is not even exported, the same mount attempt produces this log entry: Apr 25 06:31:04 server mountd[17596]: refused mount request from client for / (/): no export entry And this is a successful mount of a non-root filesystem: Apr 25 06:47:06 server mountd[17596]: authenticated mount request from client:993 for /home (/home) related packages: nfs-common : 1:1.0.7-9 libnfsidmap1 : version 0.13-1 libc6 : version 2.3.6-7 mount : 2.12r-8 kernel-image-2.4.27-2-386 : version 2.4.27-11 Various configuration examples suggest that it ought to be possible to export a block-device root filesystem just like any other, but currently this seems not to work. Perhaps the documentation could explain what needs to be done to make this possible ("fsid=xxx"?), or if it is in fact not possible for some reason, make this clear. -- Ian Bruce -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe".

Both installation and removal of this package require the file "/usr/bin/kpsewhich", which seems to come from either package "tetex-bin" or package "libkpathsea-perl".

Bug#308136: pppd segfaults if "call" option is used more than once
It seems that the underlying problem here is that pppd (Debian version 2.4.3-20050321+2) will segfault if you try to use the "call" option more than once. It has nothing specifically to do with nested use of this option. This is a new bug; previous versions did not have this problem. I use pppd like this: /usr/sbin/pppd call netctrl call myaccount The file /etc/ppp/peers/netctrl contains: noauth defaultroute /dev/ttyS2 115200 linkname inet idle 1200 The file /etc/ppp/peers/myaccount contains: user joe password abcxyz The purpose of this is to separate the hardware configuration from the dialup account information. I also use a standard /etc/ppp/options file and a "connect" script, but these don't appear to be relevant to the matter at hand. This all worked fine until I upgraded to the current ppp version. Now this command segfaults immediately: /usr/sbin/pppd call netctrl call myaccount dryrun However, when I concatenate the two config files together, so as to use a single "call" option, everything works fine; the command prints all the options and exits normally: /usr/sbin/pppd call test dryrun It does not appear that any /var/run/ppp* files are created in either case; the segfault happens even when these are removed beforehand. GDB backtrace: $ gdb /usr/sbin/pppd core GNU gdb 6.3-debian ... (gdb) bt #0 0x08074fd2 in tdb_store () #1 0x08051b80 in unlock_db () #2 0x08061a11 in int_option () #3 0x08060b3b in options_from_list () #4 0x080601ef in parse_args () #5 0x0804ee59 in main () (gdb) -- which looks pretty much the same as what some other people reported previously. To summarize, this bug is simple to reproduce; just use the "call" option twice. It does not depend on the specific contents of the options files, or using "call" in nested files. A comparison of the relevant code section with the previous version should find it; it's probably something trivial, like some variable not being properly reinitialized the second time it's used. Using "call" more than once always used to work, and it seems like a reasonable thing to want to do. It might be worth investigating the "file" option to see if it now exhibits the same problem. A related issue: I'd like to suggest that the secret "password" option be documented in the manual page. I only found it when I was digging through the source code trying to figure out how to implement such a feature; it turned out that somebody already had. When I asked the upstream maintainers why it wasn't documented, they said that this was because using it on the command line would be a security hole, as the authentication password would be exposed by "ps". The simple solution to that problem is to disallow it on the command line, and only accept it through the "call" and "file" options. This is the reason why I was using a "call" option to pass the dialup account information to pppd. Anyway, for PPP clients, it's a lot more convenient just to use the "user" and "password" options than messing around with the {pap,chap}-secrets files. Since the "password" option is already implemented, it ought to be documented along with the rest of the pppd options. -- Ian Bruce -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe".

The third and sixth columns are cross-references to the other. It turns out that in the mkinitrd script there is a function called "print_ide_modules()" which is responsible for most of the contents of this "loadmodules" file. It doesn't appear to do any kind of hardware detection. It just runs "find" on the /lib/modules//kernel/drivers/ide/pci directory, the output of which depends only on the order that the files in that directory were originally copied into it. Notice that both of the lists you quoted are (mostly) alphabetically ordered, the first in reverse. This is undoubtedly a result of modules being copied into various directories in that order; "for x in *" would do it. The implication is that neither the installer nor mkinitrd is particularly concerned about the order in which IDE modules are loaded. > In this case the problem could well be the reversed load order of the > piix and generic modules. I tried hacking the mkinitrd script to reverse the relative order of these two modules, and I also tried eliminating all the other IDE modules except those. Neither change fixed the problem. modprobe -k vesafb > /dev/null 2>&1 modprobe -k fbcon 2> /dev/null modprobe -k unix 2> /dev/null modprobe -k piix > /dev/null 2>&1 modprobe -k generic > /dev/null 2>&1 modprobe -k ide-detect modprobe -k ide-disk The installation floppies still have no difficulty at all with this hardware. What file on them controls module loading? Perhaps some module parameters are required? I could change mkinitrd to produce exactly the same module load order as during installation, but it's not clear to me that this will work either.

It looks something like this: IDE1 master (hda) 540MB IDE2 master (hdc)85MB #1 primary 85MB swap I'll make one of those screenshots, if you'll tell me how. The partition table on hda is quite definitely there; GRUB finds it with no problem. It seems to me that this must be related to the reboot failure, somehow. -- Ian Bruce -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe". Trouble? Contact [EMAIL PROTECTED]

Thanks for your reply. Fortunately, I saw it just before I was about to try the RC3 install floppies, which would have overwritten this file. Can you tell me why the files in this directory: http://ftp.debian.org/debian/dists/testing/main/installer-i386/rc3/images/floppy/ have a timestamp of March 5th? This is much earlier than the pre-RC3 daily-build images I was using; is that intentional? A gzip'ed copy of /var/log/debian-installer/syslog is attached. Also attached is /var/log/debian-installer/messages , which seemed like it might be relevant. As for the module loading order for the failed reboot, see the "loadmodules" file extracted from the initrd image in my previous message. There is one other oddity I noticed, which may or may not be related. When I retry the installation (as I have many times), at the "Partition disks" stage (where I choose "manual"), the existing ext3 partition on hda is never recognized, although the existing swap partition on hdc is. I don't understand why that would happen. Let me know if there is other information that would be useful in solving this problem. -- Ian Bruce syslog.gz Description: Binary data messages.gz Description: Binary data
Bug#300870: install report: Debian-Installer fails on old IBM PC
Package: installation-reports Of course, I do realize that this isn't exactly current hardware, but I don't see why it shouldn't work anyway. Debian-installer-version: boot floppy daily build of March 18th, from http://people.debian.org/~joeyh/d-i/images/daily/floppy/ Method: boot from floppy, install packages from network Machine: IBM Personal Computer 750 (PCI/ISA, not MicroChannel) chipset: INTEL PCIset SB82437JX + SB82371FB Processor: Pentium-1 133MHz Memory: 48MB Root Device: Quantum 540MB IDE hard disk Partition table: Disk /dev/hda: 541 MB, 541384704 bytes 255 heads, 63 sectors/track, 65 cylinders Units = cylinders of 16065 * 512 = 8225280 bytes Device Boot Start End Blocks Id System /dev/hda1 * 1 65 522081 83 Linux note: swap space is on separate drive, on secondary IDE bus PCI devices: :00:00.0 Host bridge: Intel Corp. 82437FX [Triton FX] (rev 01) :00:01.0 ISA bridge: Intel Corp. 82371FB PIIX ISA [Triton I] (rev 02) :00:01.1 IDE interface: Intel Corp. 82371FB PIIX IDE [Triton I] (rev 02) :00:06.0 Ethernet controller: 3Com Corporation 3c905 100BaseTX [Boomerang] :00:08.0 VGA compatible controller: S3 Inc. 86c764/765 [Trio32/64/64V+] (rev 53) Problems: reboot from hard disk fails The installation was carried out with the current daily-build floppy disks (boot, root, drivers), with everything else obtained through the network. Everything proceeds smoothly until the reboot from hard disk. GRUB loads the kernel and initrd image, apparently successfully. The kernel runs through the bootup sequence without issue until it tries to "Partition check" the hard drive. After making some comment about using the PIIX module, and correctly recognizing the Quantum hard drive, it then fails with a bunch of DMA timeout errors. Since neither the install floppies, nor GRUB, nor "tomsrtbt" have any problem at all with this hardware, I infer that it's a software problem. Probably something about the right module not being loaded, or loaded in the wrong order, or a conflict with another module. The installer chose the "kernel-image-2.4.27-2-586tsc_2.4.27-8_i386.deb" kernel package; I also tried the "kernel-image-2.4.27-2-386_2.4.27-8_i386.deb" kernel package, but the result was the same. Attached are the files "/linuxrc.conf", "/script", and "/loadmodules" extracted from the initrd image "/boot/initrd.img-2.4.27-2-586tsc" found on the hard disk after the failed reboot. The initrd package is "initrd-tools_0.1.77_all.deb".

Bug#294807: sylpheed v1.0.1-1 doesn't support GnuPG
Package: sylpheed Version: 1.0.1-1 The sylpheed v1.0.1-1 package appears to have been compiled without support for GnuPG. Sylpheed version 1.0.1 requires GPGME v1.0 rather than v0.3 , as previous versions did. If this omission is intentional, it should be noted as such in the README or Changelog files. Another problem is that the installation scripts apparently do not run "update-menus", so that sylpheed disappears from application menus. -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe".
