Bug#419481: libc6 fails to upgrade on AMD64 X2

2007-04-16 Thread Manuel



I'm sorry but my antispam system caught up all of your messages and it's 
taken a while for me to be aware of them. I hope it won't happend ever 
again.



was it the error the first time you tried to install ?


Yes. Actually I've also tried with the previous 2.5 glibc versions from 
experimental and same result.



does it segfaults with a debian kernel (such as 2.6.18 or .20) as well ?


I also ckecked the segfault with 2.6.19  .20 vanilla kernel. I'll try to 
test it for a debian one as soon as possible.



Do you run selinux or any particular stuff ?


Not the case.


ould you give your /etc/nsswitch.conf please ?


Unfortunately I cannot reach the machine right now, I'll report it later 
(but I've never touched such a file). Also, I'll try to setup a chroot 
system with just this news libs to isolate the problem (if I manually 
install them in the root system, the init process segfaults at the 
beginning).


More info: not a single problem with other x86 and x86_64 systems (but 
neither of them are SMP).


Thanks for your help

  I own and mad64X2 too, and it worked flawlessly. You will need to run
the preinst/postrm in '-x' mode to see what happens, if that's bash that
segfaults, or a subcommand.

  (edit your /var/lib/dpkg/info/libc6.postinst and set the #! line to sh
-x instead of plain sh).

Bug#419481: libc6 fails to upgrade on AMD64 X2

2007-04-16 Thread Manuel Cepedello Boiso
Ok, I blame myself for not uncovering the culprit before: the directory 
/lib64 was not a symlink to /lib but an older copy of it (with glibc 
version 2.3.5). No one trouble with the upgrade after replacing it.


Probably something went wrong with the instalation, 
however no one glitch has showed up until now.


I apologise for my dumb blindness...

Bug#419481: libc6 fails to upgrade on AMD64 X2

2007-04-15 Thread Manuel
Package: libc6
Version: 2.5-2
Severity: critical
Justification: breaks the whole system



Trying to install the latest libc6 (2.5) I got the following error:

(Reading database ... 276412 files and directories currently installed.)
Preparing to replace libc6 2.5-2 (using libc6_2.5-2_amd64.deb) ...
Unpacking replacement libc6 ...

dpkg: error while cleaning up:

Errors were encountered while processing:
 libc6_2.5-2_amd64.deb

Actually, the kernel also complains with the following messages:

  well, was it the error the first time you tried to install ? it says
you are using a 2.6.21-rc6 kernel, does it segfaults with a debian
kernel (such as 2.6.18 or .20) as well ?

  Do you run selinux or any particular stuff ?

  could you give your /etc/nsswitch.conf please ?

TIA
