Bug#555494: dh_strip doesn't prevent leakage of the build directory.

2009-11-09 Thread sobtwmxt
Package:  debhlper
Version:  7.4.3
Severity: wishlist

  Version 2.9.27 of libc6 has the following item in
changelog.Debian.gz:

Strip *.o files manually (dh_strip does not do it) to prevent
leakage of the build directory.

According to 
http://lists.debian.org/debian-glibc/2009/11/msg00089.html,
the code is:

find . -name \*crt\*.o -exec objcopy
--only-keep-debug '{}' ../$(libc)-dbg/usr/lib/debug/'{}'
';' || true;
find . -name \*crt\*.o -exec objcopy
--add-gnu-debuglink=../$(libc)-dbg/usr/lib/debug/'{}'
'{}' ';' || true);
find debian/$(curpass) -name \*crt\*.o -exec
strip --strip-debug --remove-section=.comment
--remove-section=.note --strip-unneeded '{}' ';' || true;


Is it possible to have similar lines in dh_strip?

Bug#546325: if ((rc=ioctl(i8k_fd, I8K_BIOS_VERSION, args)) 0) {

On Sat, Sep 12, 2009 at 04:15:48PM +0100, Bradley Smith wrote:
 Gah sorry, I misread the bug report..
 


1) The problem seem to appear because

ioctl(i8k_fd, I8K_BIOS_VERSION, args))

return value is less then 0.

$ grep -A2 I8K_BIOS_VERSION i8kutils-1.32/i8kctl.c
if ((rc=ioctl(i8k_fd, I8K_BIOS_VERSION, args))  0) {
return NULL;
}

  What makes an ioctl call return less then 0?  
  Perhaps i8kutils-1.32/i8kctl.c should be patched to print errno to 
stderr?


2) Is it related to the fact that the author states there are bugs:

$ grep -A1 I8K_BIOS_VERSION i8kutils-1.32/i8k.h
#define I8K_BIOS_VERSION_IOR ('i', 0x80, int)   /* broken: 
meant 4 bytes */
#define I8K_MACHINE_ID  _IOR ('i', 0x81, int)   /* broken: 
meant 16 bytes */

  ?
  Is fixing this problem is a matter of just fixing 
i8kutils-1.32/i8k.h, or should the kernel module be fixed?

  The proc file does know the version, namely A14:

Why the utility doesn't report it? It states (null):

Avoid outputting anything to stdout in your postinst, since

  It took me a while to see what this is all about.  I hope I am not 
the only one that have that difficulty.  For the benefit of others, 
the problem is that there should be an `i' character instead of a `1' 
character.  The affix for the package name is `i8k', not `18k'.

Bug#542637: Actually, the report is not accurate

2009-08-20 Thread sobtwmxt
  I read the file more carefully.  The header is for 1.28.  The footer
has the email address of the prevoius maintainer.  Since he doesn't 
wish to recieve any messages for the utilities I think that that 
pragraph must make it clear that the statement only refer to the 
single person whose email address is in the footer.  And that that 
person used to be the upstream author.

Bug#531220: nut.postinst: my 3 lines for re processing nut.conf MODE so that it can be sourced

2009-08-16 Thread sobtwmxt
  2.4.1-3 has:

# re process nut.conf MODE so that it can be sourced
NUT_MODE=`sed -ne 's#^ *MODE = *\(.*\)$#\1#p' /etc/nut/nut.conf`
sed s/^MODE\(.*\)/MODE=$NUT_MODE/ /etc/nut/nut.conf

mv /etc/nut/nut.conf.new /etc/nut/nut.conf

A possible reason is udev.

  Starting from this release the last applicable NAME directive

  The default rules files have been moved to /lib/udev/rules.d/

How should I submitted the message correctly? Why does this message 
mention an architecture, while an architecture is not mentioned in

what is the meaning of marking the bug in version 1:9.6.1.dfsg.P1-1?

Bug#526770: A suggestion to add some code to upsd.c:check_command

2009-07-26 Thread sobtwmxt
1. It could be that the logging problem that was reported by shaul Karl 
   was beacuse of tcpd.
2. upsd.c:check_command:
2.1  I suggest to add a upsdebugx call when hosts_access returns 0.
2.2  upsd.c:server_load add 127.0.0.1 when no LISTEN addres has 
 been specified.  In that case, upsd.c:check_command should allow 
 127.0.0.1 in the same circumstances.  It is reasonble to expect 
 that when no LISTEN address has been specified, no modifications 
 will be done for tcpd to allow upsd.  That may address the report
 of alex bodnaru in the bug report.

Bug#537201: dpkg --print-installation-architecture vs dpkg --print-architecture revisited

2009-07-15 Thread sobtwmxt
Package: console-data
Version: 1.09-1
Severity: normal
Tags: patch

debian/attic/console-data.config uses 
dpkg --print-installation-architecture
, which is obsolete and prints a warning to the user.

$ dpkg --print-installation-architecture
dpkg: warning: obsolete option '--print-installation-architecture', 
please use '--print-architecture' instead.
i386

It used to have `dpkg --print-architecture', but was changed to the 
current usage in #54798.  Qouting the relevat part of #54798:


If you read the dpkg --help you'll see that :
   dpkg --print-architectureprint target architecture (uses 
GCC)

You should be using dpkg --print-installation-architecture ... this 
is
a common mistake and it should be in a debian developers FAQ if 
there was one.

Without gcc, dpkg --print-architecture is failing and caused your 
package
postinst to abort (note the empty arch string outputted by 
console-data debug line)...


dpkg --help doesn't mention anymore the requirment for gcc for
--print-architecture.  There for, I suggested either:

Bug#532072: Are changelogs of packages not getting updated?

2009-06-06 Thread sobtwmxt
Package: ftp.debian.org
Severity: normal

It looks to me that chagelogs of packages not getting updated when
new versions are accepted. Are you aware of that? Is that intended?
For example, reportbug 4.4 is in testing, while 
/changelogs/pool/main/r/reportbug/current points to 4.2

Bug#528641: Files that are not used by the application are marked as connfiles

2009-05-14 Thread sobtwmxt
Package: nut
Version: 2.4.1-2
Severity: normal
Tags: patch

The *.sample files that are written to /etc/nut by the deb are marked
as conffiles even though the application does not read them.
I suggest to:
1. Remove the .sample suffix
2. Have the distributed files also in /usr/share/doc/nut/examples.
   Having them in the examples dir allows the user to get a short
   version in the CONF dir, while preserving the useful skeltons,
   with the comments, in a known, namely examples, directory.
