Bug#985635: ghostscript 9.53 produces incorrect output with xelatex and PStricks

2023-07-03 Thread Jim McCloskey
This problem is resolved in Debian 12 Bookworm, with the arrival of ghostscript 
10.0.
The bug should probably be closed.  Thank you all for all of your work,

Bug#985635: ghostscript 9.53 produces incorrect output with xelatex and PStricks

2021-03-20 Thread Jim McCloskey
Package: ghostscript
Version: 9.53~dfsg-2+deb10u4
X-Debbugs-Cc: mccl...@ucsc.edu, debian-tex-ma...@lists.debian.org
Severity: normal
Tags: upstream

Dear Maintainer,

A LaTeX document which includes a call to PStricks and the pst-jtree package 
produces correct
PDF output when compiled with xelatex in Debian buster.  Following an upgrade 
to bullseye, the
same document compiled in exactly the same way produces incorrect output.

Investigation suggests that the source of the problem was an upgrade to 
ghostscript -- as far
as version 9.53. When I downgraded ghostscript to the version in buster 
(ghostscript 9.27) and
made no other changes, compiling with xelatex produced correct output.  Version 
9.52 of
ghostscript is not available in the Debian archive, it seems. But I downloaded 
a binary from:
https://github.com/ArtifexSoftware/ghostpdl-downloads/releases/tag/gs952 and 
created a symlink
between the 9.52 version in /opt and /usr/bin/gs. This adjustment also led to a 
successful
compilation. The problem, then, seems to have been introduced in the transition 
from
ghostscript 9.52 to ghostscript 9.53.

The nature of the problem is revealed in the attached files -- one source-file 
(tree.tex) was
compiled with xelatex in three different contexts:

   -  with ghostscript 9.53 in bullseye (tree-gs-9.53.pdf)
   -  with ghostscript 9.27 in buster   (tree-gs-9.27.pdf)
   -  with ghostscript 9.52 (tree-gs-9.52.pdf)

Under gs-9.53 all of the various labels are incorrectly gathered at the root of 
the tree and
are superimposed on one another. Under earlier versions of ghostscript (9.52 
and 9.27), the
document is rendered as intended -- with the labels distinct and printed at the 
intended nodes.

Thank you for all of your work,

Jim McCloskey

Bug#864758: libmtp9 regression on upgrade to stretch

2017-06-14 Thread Jim McCloskey
Package: libmtp9
Version: 1.1.12-1~bpo8+1
Severity: important

Hello, and thanks for all of your work.

In jessie with:

libmtp-common:  1.1.11-1
libmtp-runtime: 1.1.9-1
libmtp9:1.1.9-1
mtp-tools   1.1.9-1
jmtpfs: 0.5-2
4.8.0-1-amd64 #1 SMP Debian 4.8.7-1 (2016-11-13) x86_64 GNU/Linux

I was able to mount both my sailfish phone and my android tablet
without problems using:

   /usr/bin/jmtpfs  ~/xoom
   /usr/bin/jmtpfs  ~/jolla

Following an upgrade to stretch yielding:

libmtp-common:  1.1.13-1
libmtp-runtime: 1.1.13-1
libmtp9:1.1.13-1
mtp-tools   1.1.13-1
jmtpfs: 0.5-2+b2

mounting failed consistently for both the android and the sailfish devices:

---
Device 0 (VID=22b8 and PID=70a9) is a Motorola Xoom (MTP+ADB).
ignoring libusb_claim_interface() = -6PTP_ERROR_IO: failed to open session, 
trying again after resetting USB interface
LIBMTP libusb: Attempt to reset device
ignoring libusb_claim_interface() = -6LIBMTP PANIC: failed to open session on 
second attempt
terminate called after throwing an instance of 'MtpErrorCantOpenDevice'
  what():  Can't open device
Aborted
---

Purging libmtp-runtime, libmtp9 and mtp-tools, then re-installing from 
jessie-backports to give:

libmtp-common:  1.1.13-1
libmtp-runtime: 1.1.12-1~bpo8+1
libmtp9:1.1.12-1~bpo8+1
mtp-tools   1.1.12-1~bpo8+1
jmtpfs: 0.5-2+b2

restores the old behavior and solves the problem -- both devices are mounted 
without error or problems.

Ah, sorry ...  I installed the 3.17-1 package from the experimental

Bad 

But this morning I installed 3.16.7-ckt2-1 from jessie, booted into

best part of a day working on the system.

Thank you! I did have kexec-tools installed (though I'm not sure how
that came to be so and I wasn't aware of it). Purging kexec-tools
solved the problem, so this bug should probably be closed. However
judging by the discussion of #766338, the problem seems to stem from
an interaction between kexec-tools and systemctl.

I'm very grateful for your help,

I encountered this bug following an upgrade to testing on October 30th
2014, an upgrade that affected both kexec-tools and systemd. I
reported it as bug #767449 against systemd (I didn't know that
kexec-tools was installed on the relevant system, a laptop). 

The upgrade was from kexec-tools 2.0.4-1 to 2.0.7-3 and from systemd
208-8 to 215-5+b1. The problem did not exist before the upgrade.
Purging kexec-tools `solves' the problem.

Is it significant that all of the reports of this problem that I've
seen (not that there are very many) involve the amd64 architecture?

Bug#767449: systemctl forces reboot with every shutdown

2014-10-30 Thread Jim McCloskey
Package: systemd
Version: 215-5+b1
Severity: important

Dear Maintainer,

Thanks very much for all of your work. The core of my report is this:
following an upgrade to testing on October 30th 2014, I am unable to
shut down my laptop. Almost every way of shutting down is followed by
a forced reboot (which of course I do not want).

   * What led up to the situation?

Upgrading to testing on Thursday October 30th 2014. This included an
upgrade to libsystemd0, libpam-systemd, systemd, systemd-sysv,
libsystemd-daemon0, libsystemd-id128-0, libsystemd-journal0,
libsystemd-login0.

   * What exactly did you do (or not do) that was effective (or
 ineffective)?

1. In Gnome 3: Tried to shutdown using the power-down icon in the
dropdown menu of the status bar. The system shut down and rebooted.

2. In Gnome 3: pressed and held the power button (configured in
gnome-tweak-tool to power down). The system shut down and immediately
rebooted.

3. From the command-line as root, typed `shutdown -h now'. The system
shut down and immediately rebooted.

4. From the command-line as root, typed `systemctl poweroff'. The
system shut down and immediately rebooted.

5. From the command-line as root, typed `poweroff -p'. The 
system shut down and immediately rebooted. (Similarly just `poweroff'.)

6. From the command-line as root, typed `halt -p', The
system shutdown and immediately rebooted.

7. From the command-line as root, typed `poweroff -f'. The system shut
down and there was no reboot. Presumably because using this option
entails that the init system is not contacted.

   * What was the outcome of this action?

An automatic (and unwanted) reboot following shutdown in every
circumstance except when `poweroff -f' was issued as root from the
command line. This is the only way I've found so far to actually shut
the laptop down.  Since shutdown and poweroff are symbolic links to
systemctl, presumably the problem ultimately lies there.

   * What outcome did you expect instead?

That the system would shut down without automatically and instantly
rebooting.  That was the behavior before the upgrade.

Thanks for any advice or help. Please let me know how I might help,

Jim

Dear Maintainer,

which I
had not experienced on this system under stable/wheezy.

   * What was the outcome of this action?

I get GPU lockups. This did not happen before the upgrade. Usually it happens 
before
the display manager (gdm3) can display the login screen. The screen is blank; 
the
cursor is motionless in the top left-hand corner; usually the keyboard is 
responsive,
but not always. Even when the keyboard is not responsive I can get access via 
ssh. When
I can switch to a console using Ctl-Alt-F1, the message below is sometimes (but 
not
always) displayed:

   nouveau  E[DRM] GPU lockup - switching to software fbcon

If I can get past the starting of gdm3 without a lockup, the system usually 
functions fine 
for several hours. But lockups can then also come at unpredictable (by me) 
moments.

I did a further upgrade to libgl1-mesa-dri in sid: libgl1-mesa-dri:i386 
(10.2.3-1, 10.2.4-1) 
but that made matters neither worse nor better.

Wireless connectivity now works very well again. I have no idea which
was the crucial package, but I'm relieved and grateful,

Bug#755568: follow-up 2

2014-07-22 Thread Jim McCloskey

  | The other experiment I've been running is this: network-manager on the
  | laptop is currently at the version in testing (0.9.10.0-1), but I
  | purged network-manager-gnome almost exactly three hours ago. The
  | problem has not manifested itself in those three hours,

But when I booted this morning (with network-manager-gnome still 
uninstalled) the problem was back. I had wireless connectivity for
roughly 2 minutes and then the connection died without warning and
further attempts to connect yielded only `no route to host' messages.

So the problem does seem to be in network-manager itself, and in some
change that was made betweeen version 0.9.8.10-4 and version
0.9.10.0-1,

Bug#755568: upgrade to network-manager(-gnome?) in jessie breaks wireless connectivity

2014-07-21 Thread Jim McCloskey
Package: network-manager
Version: 0.9.10.0-1
Severity: important


It's actually not clear to me whether this bug-report should be filed
against network-manager or against network-manager-gnome.

I upgraded my laptop to testing on Monday July 21st:

  Start-Date: 2014-07-21  09:38:16
  Commandline: apt-get -t testing dist-upgrade

Among the packages affected were network-manager and network-manager-gnome:

network-manager:amd64 (0.9.8.10-4,  0.9.10.0-1)
network-manager-gnome:amd64 (0.9.8.10-1, 0.9.10.0-2)

Before the upgrade, my network connections worked really unusually
well (better than my housemates using OsX).  Following the upgrade,
though, I saw the following problematic behavior (on my home network):
Upon reboot, the laptop established a wireless link with the access
point and all seemed normal. After roughly one minute's use, however,
I lost the connection, with no notification from the system and in the
following sense: addresses on the local network remained accessible,
but any attempt to connect beyond the local network (ssh, http ... )
resulted in `no route to host' messages.  I repeated this pattern (by
rebooting) five times.

The problem is not with the network configuration here -- all other
machines (OsX and debian systems that had not been upgraded)
continue to work as expected and as before. Only the system which had
undergone this upgrade was affected.

I forced a downgrade to the version of network-manager in wheezy
(0.9.4.0-10), which in turn forced the removal of
network-manager-gnome, and the problem disappeared. I upgraded again to
version 0.9.10.0-1 (current testing) and the problem returned.

At present, the system reports (through the network icon) that the
laptop is connected; ifconfig shows that wlan0 has an IP address, but
all outbound connections are impossible. It's as if the default route
cannot be configured (or that that information is somehow lost after
the initial connection).

Here is a relevant part of syslog after the most recent such failure:

Bug#755470: follow-up

2014-07-21 Thread Jim McCloskey

The system now usually (three times out of five) freezes hard before
it gets to the gdm3 login screen and can then be used only in console-mode.

There's no 0-greeter.log in /var/log/gdm3/ because (I think) X crashes
before things can get that far:

Jul 21 20:52:52 branci40 org.a11y.Bus[803]: g_dbus_connection_real_closed: 
Remote peer vanished with error: Underlying GIOStream returned 0 bytes on an

I experienced no such crashes before the upgrade; the machine is now
only occasionally usable,

Bug#654939: mtpfs: broken overnight

2013-02-02 Thread Jim McCloskey

For me, this bug (if it's one bug we're talking about) was caused, or
exposed, by a recent dist-upgrade to testing. I have a Motorola Xoom
that I mount on my Debian wheezy box with:

  mtpfs -o allow_other /media/android

(run as root). This has worked with no problems since I got the Xoom
about a month ago. In particular it was working on Friday evening
January 31st. But then:

  Start-Date: 2013-02-01  00:01:06
  Commandline: apt-get -t testing dist-upgrade

This upgrade included:

Upgrade: 
  mtpfs:i386 (0.9-3+b1, 1.1-4),
  libmono-system-xml4.0-cil:i386 (2.10.8.1-6, 2.10.8.1-7),

End-Date: 2013-02-01  00:02:09

As soon as the upgrade completed, I was unable to mount the tablet or
communicate with it at all.  

% mtpfs -o allow_other /media/android
  Listing raw device(s)
  Device 0 (VID=22b8 and PID=70a8) is a Motorola Xoom (ID 1).

and:

   bash: cd: /media/android: Transport endpoint is not connected

and the /media/android directory is listed as:

   d?  ? ??  ?? android

`adb devices' shows no devices attached and `adb shell' reports:
error: device not found (fusermount -u /dev/android returns the
directory listing to normal, as reported by another user above).

mtab, however, does list the device as mounted:

  mtpfs /media/android fuse.mtpfs 
rw,nosuid,nodev,relatime,user_id=0,group_id=0,allow_other 0 0

Among the packages upgraded, presumably mtpfs is the likely
culprit. And presumably the problem was caused by whatever is
different between version 0.9-3+b1 and version 1.1-4. Looking at the
changelog, the only likely possibilities seemed to be a dependency on
fuse rather than on fuse-utils, or else the move to a new upstream
version.

I tried purging fuse-utils but that made no difference. 

I tried to downgrade to mtpfs 0.9-3 0 in stable, but apt wanted to
remove grub in doing that, so 

Installing libmtp9 from the experimental repository made no difference.

I hope this is helpful.

Bug#687136: update

2012-10-05 Thread Jim McCloskey

This is what I've done so far to try to sort this bug out:

 . tried different monitors
 . tested the memory
 . upgraded the BIOS
 . tried the card in a different machine
 . tried a self-compiled version of (Debianized) kernel 3.4
 . tried libdrm packages built myself from:

   git://git.debian.org/git/pkg-xorg/lib/libdrm --branch debian-experimental
   (September 25th)

No luck. I get X freezes in every condition except when the firmware package is
uninstalled and no acceleration is attempted. 

Presumably the most relevant sign of trouble is that the fact that GPU lockups
are reported:

  Oct  5 14:00:17 ohlone kernel: [   34.436052] GPU lockup (waiting for 
0x0004 last fence id 0x0001)
  Oct  5 14:00:17 ohlone kernel: [   34.437223] radeon :01:00.0: GPU 
softreset
  Oct  5 14:00:17 ohlone kernel: [   34.436052] GPU lockup (waiting for

  Oct  5 14:00:17 ohlone kernel: [   34.437223] radeon :01:00.0: GPU 
softreset
   
at intervals of 12 to 20 seconds.

At this point I think I have to just give up,

but since /libdrm-2.4.33/radeonr600_pci_ids.h from wheezy already includes:

   CHIPSET(0x6759, TURKS_6759, TURKS)

it seems like the chipset should be supported in that version. The
ones that were added in the commit you referred me to are:

   +CHIPSET(0x6751, TURKS_6751, TURKS)
   +CHIPSET(0x675B, TURKS_675B, TURKS)

Comments/Problems:

Ancient hardware, I know, but it was all I had available for a test install. 
Everything smooth and fast; only two things worth commenting on:

 The wireless device could not be made to work (because of the missing
 iwlwifi firmware, I believe) so I plugged in an ethernet cable and everything
 went smoothly from there.

 Gnome3 started in fallback/classic mode (there was
 no direct rendering or acceleration for the ATI graphics card). It works
 fine in this mode.

Sorry to be slow (I've been fiendishly busy).

But I tested the d-i build of November 22nd and I did *not* encounter
the problem I reported here.

I notice that there's a new build today (Nov 26). I assume that if the
problem is fixed in the build of Nov 22nd, it's still fixed in the
build of Nov 26th, but let me know if you'd like me to test that also.

Thanks very much for your help and for your work,

Jim

I'll attach the output of lspci -knn for the system in case that would
be useful.

Bug#545933: Installation-Report: Dell Optiplex 745 USB keyboard not recognized

Comments/Problems:

These machines have no serial ports, so one must use a USB keyboard
and mouse. The keyboard was detected fine in the BIOS and the initial
installation menu could also be navigated (arrow keys and enter
produced the expected responses). Upon reaching the first menu,
however (Choose a Language), the keyboard became unresponsive (none of
arrow keys, enter, space, or TAB produced any response) and so it was
impossible to go any farther.  Same behaviour with both graphic and
non-graphic install methods.

Reverting to debian-testing-i386-netinst.iso build of January 31st
2009 resolved the issue.

I will try this when the current install finishes (I want to re-do the

Comments/Problems:

 All very smooth. The new version (December) correctly detected
 and configured the ethernet adapter (Broadcom BCM4401 100Base-T),
 where the August version could not.

 I thought I could choose to install a 2.6 series kernel, but if
 that was an option, I somehow missed it. 

THANKS!!!

Jim McCloskey
