Looking at the backtrace, it appears to be related to OpenGL, meaning a 3D 
Windows app, not just any Windows app (assuming I'm reading it correctly).  
It would be helpful if you provided more info about what apps you were trying 
to run that crashed.

Given that it doesn't crash for everyone, I'm downgrading it to important.  No 
need for an unnecessary RC bug when Etch is trying to get out.  :)

Bug#321102: more ways to reproduce this bug

2007-01-15 Thread Adam Porter
On Monday 15 January 2007 06:45, Bastian Venthur wrote:

 One last word about this bug: Bugs like this will always be reproducible
 until two-part actions like move mail from a to b (= copy mail from a to
 b, delete mail from a) are not handled somewhat atomic. In the current
 implementation KMail does not even try to do stuff like this atomic. If
 you fix this, then I think you will fix the bug.

 Summary: I've presented altogether five ways how certain situations in
 KMail can lead to data loss. I even was able to lose data by just
 justing CTRL-L like upstream suggests.

 All my examples might seem minimalistic and somewhat artificial, but
 please keep in mind that this is just in order to make the bug easy to
 reproduce! It's not hard to imagine how situations like this can happen
 to an average user on a more complicated setup.

Thank you, Bastian, for writing that.  I think that is the best explanation 
I've seen so far.

I'm not sure if doing dIMAP atomically would make sense; that sounds like 
regular, online IMAP to me.  The whole point of dIMAP is to make changes 
offline and then sync them all at once.  (Although the reason I use dIMAP is 
merely to keep an offline copy of my IMAP mail for backup.  I would love a 
hybrid IMAP mode that would keep a local copy of all messages, and make 
changes live on the server as you make them when you are online, but queue 
changes for later syncing when you're in offline mode [and KMail even has 
an offline mode option]).

I think a good workaround would be for KMail to keep track of whether it has 
unsynced changes, and warn the user if he tries to close KMail or log out 
before syncing the changes.  It would also be nice if the connection 
timeout/retry code was made more robust to cope better with times where the 
server or connection to it goes down.  Just yesterday I had some timeouts 
while uploading a large message to the server after moving it from one folder 
to another (why can't it just tell the server to move the message, rather 
than uploading it again?), and the process didn't finish until I stopped and 
resynced a couple of times, because KMail didn't timeout and retry on its 
own.

Perhaps the real solution is to get rid of a separate disconnected/offline 
IMAP mode and make a single, hybrid IMAP mode.  When you're online, it should 
make changes on the server as you make them locally.  When you're offline, it 
should queue changes for later syncing, and warn the user if he quits or logs 
out without syncing them.  And whether you're online or offline, it should 
have an option to keep local copies of all messages.

  Hi,
 
  I know this mail sucks (like this whole bug) but looking at the relevant
  KDE bugreport, I really doubt that this bug is fixed.
 
http://bugs.kde.org/show_bug.cgi?id=104956
 
  I'm not using KMail anymore so I can't give any first hand information,
  but I'm still following the relevant KDE bugreports and It simply looks
  like this bug is not fixed.
 
  Why was it closed anyway? Looks like upstreams bugreport is still open
  too.

 So, you do not use kmail anymore, go to the kde bugzilla and see people
 is still suffering this bug in kubuntu and decide to re-open this bug
 in the Debian BTS?

 The commit that should fix this bug was not committed before the kde3.5.5
 release, so only distributions that have hand-picked the fix from svn had
 it included.
 It is 'closed' in kde bugzilla. 'Verified' is the 'step' after 'fixed'
 in bugzilla wordings. Verified that it is fixed). Don't mix it with
 'confirmed' which is a confirmation that the bug exists.


 Ana

Ana,

If you check the latest reports on KDE #104956, you'll see that Christian 
Maluck reports mail loss with the 1.9.5 version in Kubuntu, which checking 
the changelog reveals to have the patch that is merged upstream in 3.5.5, 
which means it has the same patch that Debian has.

Clearly, regardless of the upstream bug tracker's status field (which I and 
others would change but are unable to), this bug is not solved.  I just 
experienced it myself a short time ago, and others are also experiencing it.  
Why don't you just reopen this bug, rather than asking me to open an entirely 
new bug and throwing away the logs associated with this one?

This is a severely damaging bug resulting in mail loss both locally and on the 
server.  Please reopen it until it is truly fixed.

 Sorry Adam, we (KDE team) have been discussing this and we think this bug
 is fixed. Since this bug was fixed in october only you has reported this
 problem again. Also, after read your mail, it does not seem you have
 exactly the same problem neither.
 So, i'm closing the bug and you always can open a new one if you find out
 what it is exaclty the problem.

 P.S: btw, perhaps you could use /dev/input/mice instead?

This is very disappointing.  I just lost eight e-mails completely from my 
dIMAP account; they're just gone.  Other people on the KDE bug tracker also 
reported the No Subject e-mails in the same KDE bug report.  Not only was 
my local copy erased, but KMail erased the copy on the server as well.  Were 
it not for my forwarding e-mails to GMail before they land in my inbox, I'd 
never see those e-mails again.  There's absolutely no way to recover them.

So I just don't understand how you can claim the bug is fixed, when I just 
experienced exactly what the bug reports: data loss with disconnected IMAP 
account.  Clearly, KMail's dIMAP account support is still not completely 
trustworthy.

And how will opening a new bug report do any good?  People who have an 
interest in this problem are already subscribed to these bug reports.  
Opening a new one will just make it that much less likely for them to find 
out that the problem still exists.

Please reconsider your decision and reopen this bug.  At the very least, 
people need to be aware that the problem still exists.

P.S.  Thank you for your suggestion, but /dev/input/mice does not use the 
evdev driver.  I think there is a way to configure udev to assign the same 
eventX device every time, but I haven't been successful in doing so yet.

(Actually I can't seem to reopen this bug in KDE.  Argh.  If someone doesn't 
notice and reopen it, I'll file a new one and link it to Debian.)

It's with a heavy heart that I reopen this bug on KDE's and Debian's trackers.  
Here's what just happened to me (using KMail 4:3.5.5.dfsg.1-4 from Debian):

Every time I reboot, the system changes my mouse evdev device back and forth 
from /dev/input/event[1|2] to /dev/input/event[1|2], so I end up with no 
mouse control, having to switch to another VT, edit xorg.conf and restart X.  
KMail is usually in my previous session, and I have auto-login set up in KDM, 
so when I booted, it logged me in, started KMail and downloaded new mail.  
When I returned and saw that there was no mouse control, I edited xorg.conf 
and restarted KDM.  I probably should have used the keyboard to log out of my 
KDE session first, rather than restarting KDM and causing X and all child 
processes to be terminated.  But still, should that have caused seven e-mails 
that were displaying perfectly fine in my inbox and two subfolders to 
suddenly turn to No Subject, 
completely-empty-view-the-source-and-there's-zilch goners?  Then after 
logging back in, KMail proceeded to upload those empty mails to the IMAP 
server, erasing the e-mails there as well.  Luckily I forward all my e-mail 
to GMail as well, so I can still see them there.

The strange part is, after I restarted X and logged back in and started KMail, 
the e-mails in my inbox were fine, at first.  I read one and replied to it 
even!  But then when I clicked on the next unread message, the subject and 
sender of the message I just clicked on turned into No Subject 
and Unknown.  And then when I clicked on the message that I had *just read 
and replied to*, it also turned into No Subject Unknown!  Then when I 
checked two other folders, the new messages in them were also No 
Subject Unknown!

I hate to be the bearer of bad news, but KMail still has this problem.  (Or 
maybe this is actually a separate bug caused by a separate problem, but the 
end result is still mail loss in disconnected IMAP accounts.)

I have noticed this behavior for some time, since back in KDE 3.4.x at least, 
but this is the last straw, so I'm 
filing a bug.  A week or so ago I entered a few new contacts into my KDE 
address book.  When I went to look up the contacts' e-mail addresses just 
now, my search in KABC found nothing.  I opened a shell and found this:

As you can see, there are many duplicates of the std.vcf file, and two lock 
files.  The dates on the lock files 
don't match the date on the current std.vcf file.  There are two old 
std.vcf...new files that are empty.  There 
are three std.vcf__# files that are larger than the rest, and inside those 
three files are the contacts that I 
entered that are now missing in std.vcf.

Thankfully, I can copy one of those three files over the std.vcf file and 
regain those contacts.  But what in the 
world is going on here?

I'm rating this as grave because I consider it a data-loss bug.  Most users 
won't have any idea how to dig for 
the vcf files, and even if they do, there's no guarantee that the missing data 
will be there.  And even worse, if 
this went unnoticed for a while, you could end up with a branching scenario 
where some files had some contacts, 
and other files had other contacts, and somehow you'd have to merge them back 
together into a single file to get 
them all back.  Worst of all, this makes the KDE address book system (which is 
used by Kontact/KMail/etc) 
completely unreliable and untrustworthy.  I hope Etch isn't released with this 
bug.

Please let me know how I can help debug this.

This is an apt-build bug.  Installing apt-key does not fix the problem of 
apt-build creating unsigned packages.  These unsigned packages will cause 
apt-get to complain when apt-build tries to install them.

To fix this, apt-build should either:

a) Sign packages that it builds (it would be nice if the postinst script used 
debconf to offer to automatically create a new signing key, or use an existing 
key to sign [which would require entering your passphrase when you use 
apt-build])
b) Pass through to apt the --allow-unauthenticated option.  This is less 
desirable, since it would cause apt to not check other packages it installs, 
such as build-deps.  However, to mitigate this, apt-build could only pass this 
through when installing packages it created, rather than build-deps.

Without one of these solutions, apt-build will always fail to install packages 
it builds, requiring the user to then run $(apt-get install whatever) to 
actually install the packages apt-build makes.

Temporarily, for my own use, I added --allow-unauthenticated to @apt_args, 
but that is not a good long-term solution.

 So given that the stacktrace shows only libmono and libglib, what reason is
 there to think that this is a galago bug rather than a mono bug? 
 (Apologies if this is an ignorant question, I know next to nothing about
 mono and its stacktrace conventions.)

Hm, duh.  Sorry about that.  It should have been obvious to me since Beagle 
crashed too.  Sorry for wasting your time.  :)

Bug#321102: data-loss still possible with kmail 3.5.2

2006-05-16 Thread Adam Porter
On Tuesday 16 May 2006 11:03, Christopher Martin wrote:
 Perhaps a better solution would be disable dimap support in the 3.5.3
 upload, and make sure that the fixed package makes Etch (which is
 looming). Daniel, what do you feel about this? Given that upstream
 appears to be unable to replicate and fix the problem, I think this
 might be the safest, and least bothersome (to all other KMail users)
 way of dealing with this issue.

Personally, I'd be disappointed if this was done.  I know the bug is present, 
but I rely on KMail's dimap support for my mail.  I switched from Thunderbird 
because of Thunderbird's lousy, buggy dimap support.  KMail's is superb, 
other than this bug (which hasn't hit me yet).

By the way, you referred to the fixed package.  As far as I'm aware, this 
bug isn't about to be fixed.  A comment was made on the KDE Bugzilla that 
really fixing it would require a restructuring of the IMAP backend/kioslave.  
Did I miss something?  I sure hope so, cause I'd love for this bug to be 
truly fixed.

Bug#208344: Argh, locking...

2006-04-23 Thread Adam Porter
severity 208344 important
thanks

Well, I looked at the e-mail logcheck just sent me, and I found this:

gconfd (me-19567): Failed to get lock for daemon, exiting: Failed to 
lock '/tmp/gconfd-me/lock/ior': probably another process has the lock, or 
your operating system has NFS file locking misconfigured (Resource 
temporarily unavailable)

I killall-9'ed gconfd-2 and removed that lock file, and now Newton's working.  
So I'm downgrading it back to important.

The problem is, those crazy CORBA errors gave _no indication_ of the actual 
problem.

The only way I discovered it was by logcheck notifying me of those entries in 
the logs,  I was going to try rebooting today if I couldn't figure it out 
otherwise, and that would most likely have fixed it (the PID in the lockfile 
was the same as the running gconfd-2 process), and then the real problem 
might still not be known.  Remember that I looked for those lock files that 
were listed in the earlier reports, but I'm guessing that the location of the 
gconf lockfile has changed since then.

May I suggest that this bug be closed, or at least degraded, since a) it's 
most likely been fixed in later versions, and b) seems to happen when used

KMail 1.9.1 seems to have a serious data loss bug with disconnected IMAP

http://bugs.kde.org/show_bug.cgi?id=104956.  I couldn't 
find this mentioned in the Debian BTS already, so I thought I should file it so 
Debian can track it as well, and prevent it from entering testing.  Please 
forgive me if 
this isn't the proper thing to do.  I tried to add 
debian-qt-kde@lists.debian.org to the Cc list, but it's not registered with the

Bug#294520: QTParted 0.4.5-1 still does it!

2005-12-19 Thread Adam Porter
I just noticed that QTParted 0.4.5-1 (listed as v0.4.5-cvs in the program) 
still does it.  I've attached a screenshot of QTParted, and the output of 
fdisk and partman on the same disk.  I also attached a screenshot of QTParted 
0.4.4 from Knoppix 3.7; you can see a lot of extraneous stuff, but the real 
partitions are also displayed the same as in 0.4.5: completely wrong.

Notice that partitions are mixed up, and QTParted doesn't even show there 
being two ext partitions.

It's been 318 days since I submitted this bug, and nothing has been done.  
This is a CRITICAL DATA LOSS BUG.  It makes QTParted completely useless and 
untrustworthy.  Something has got to be done!

Bug#328170: Does --nowrapper help?

2005-12-19 Thread Adam Porter 8170
I'm having similar problems with apt-build from unstable.  If I do not use 
--nowrapper, I get segfaults in make like this:

checking dependency style of i486-linux-gnu-g++... ./configure: line 4135: 
19100 Segmentation fault  ${MAKE-make} -s -f confmf /dev/null 21

In this case, line 4135 looks like this, probably typical of a configure file:

for depmode in $am_compiler_list; do

As a result, when make tries to actually compile it, it segfaults too:

make  all-recursive
make[1]: *** [all] Segmentation fault

But if I run apt-build with --nowrapper, it works fine.

There seem to be similar bugs in here, but I'm getting different errors.  
Should I file a new bug, or is this it?

Bug#294520: QTParted Mixes Up Partiton Numbers

2005-02-09 Thread Adam Porter

I'm running libparted 1.6.11-8, BTW.

Partition table entries are not in disk order
- 
When I run qtparted, it shows /dev/hda9 as being a 20 GB ext3 partition,
which is actually /dev/hda11.  It also gets the other partition numbers
wrong.  I discovered this when I tried to mount /dev/hda5, an NTFS
partition, but since the number was mixed up, it mounted /dev/hda10 instead.
This is a serious bug.  I started qtparted to clear out another
partition to use for something else.  If I hadn't noticed that the
numbers were wrong, I could have wiped out the wrong partition!  Forgive
me, but I'm not about to try it and see which partition qtparted
*actually* wipes out.
