Hi Lucas, because I have been long in responding, I just wanted to drop a

Thanks a lot for the fix, testing it now!

Is this patch suitable of being backported to 2.2.13? (Debian stable)


Should be.



This will definitely go into the upcoming 2.2.21 packages. (After a long 
period of stasis we're going to bring everything up to date again soon.)


I don't know if the release team will allow it for stable even though it 
is a minor change but I'll definitely bring it up for their consideration.

Hi Gregor,

Thanks for the NMU.  I'm also the upstream for this package and I've been

Package: dovecot-core

Dear Maintainer,

last update introduced /lib/systemd/system/dovecot.socket
and /lib/systemd/system/dovecot.service to handle startup.
Despite the fact customized configuration - especially
/etc/init.d/dovecot - might get ignored and these changes
are within a /stable/ release these changes are not
documented at all.



I'm curious as to which version you upgraded from and could you have 
installed anything else which would trigger the use of systemd?  systemd 
support was added way back in 1:2.1.7 (May-June 2012) and hasn't been 
touched since then.  Certainly there is nothing in the latest update which 
involves it?  In your last upgrade did you lose systemd-shim perhaps?

Bug#773237: dovecot-core: Should not use UCF for 10-ssl.conf

2014-12-16 Thread Jaldhar H. Vyas

On Tue, 16 Dec 2014, Santiago Vila wrote:



My objection is that policy says that the conffile mechanism is only
appropriate for files having a default that may work for everybody,
and the rationale is that if most people need to modify it, then most
people will get prompted on upgrades over and over again.



The package has to ship some kind of default or the server will not start. 
As you say there isn't a default which will satisfy everyone so we 
expect it to be changed by many users.  But with normal operation of dpkg, 
new versions of the package will silently overwrite the changes.  The only 
way to prevent this is to make it a conffile.



The current default disables SSL, which is insecure. We can't honestly
claim that an insecure default will work for most people.


Sure it will.  You will be able to receive IMAP and POP3 mail which is 
what an imapd/pop3d does.  As a best practice you _should_ do IMAP/POP3 
over SSL but it is not required.  And I fully agree that in this day and 
age the more encryption working out of the box the better.  But this has 
to be done right because half-assed security is worse than no security at 
all.  There are many different scenarios: self-signed certificate versus 
purchased from a CA, different locations, different expiration policies 
etc.  The previous code was not accounting for all of this properly.  So 
the only configuration the package can ship which will definitely work for 
all people is SSL disabled.


Atleast now a security-minded user knows where he stands and can harden 
the package the way he wants.


I encourage you to work on a centralized SSL cert handling facility for 
Debian that not only dovecot but all server packages can use.  I will 
gladly use it.

Bug number? References?




Oh there have been various complaints about this or that use case for a 
long time.  Unfortunately a lot of correspondence took place outside the 
BTS but #706216 and #730828 are examples.  Here part of the problem was 
that originally following upstreams example, the certs were were created 
in /etc/ssl but I was asked in #608719 that they be moved to /etc/dovecot 
which other people did not want.


#376146 asks to use the snakeoil cert like Ubuntu does but that was not 
considered a good idea for Debian when I asked about it.


#763701 was a somewhat embarrassing example of me sucking at shell 
scripting.  I contacted Mika about his offer to help but he never 
wrote back.  Alas, this is what always happens when I ask for help.


Looking through the bugs I see that I have been saying since 2005 that 
there should be a centralized utility for managing certs that all 
packages can use.  This is the proper solution and everyone agrees it 
should be done but no one does it.


So until that happens it is safest to leave the whole business to the end 
user which atleast is no worse than what he would have to do if he 
installed dovecot from upstream source.

On Wed, 17 Dec 2014, Santiago Vila wrote:


Sorry but I don't follow your line of reasoning.

In those examples, the file 10-ssl.conf has SSL certificates by
default.



The point is that the code to do that was broken.



But I'm not proposing that the default 10-ssl.conf has SSL enabled
anymore. Everything I ask is that we avoid useless prompts in
upgrades, which is what this bug is about, and it's also what policy
says we should do.

So: Why can't dovecot-core create the *current* file (the one *not*
having SSL enabled) in the postinst instead of using UCF? Please don't
tell me that you already tried that, because you have not.


No I haven't but tell me how I am ensure that that people who have 
modified that file do not see their changes get destroyed.  When you cover 
all the use cases I bet you fill find that ucf has been reinvented--badly 
no doubt.




This would solve the problem of UCF asking the same question over and
over again on upgrades. Why can't you do that? Using UCF for a file
that everybody should change does not make any sense!


people who want SSL != everybody.  People who want SSL in one particular 
configuration != everyone who wants SSL.  That's the whole problem.

If 10-ssl.conf exists and disables SSL, then upgraders with a previously 
working SSL configuration will face a nasty surprise.


If 10-ssl.conf exists and enables SSL, then new installers without 
certificates (self-generated or otherwise) will find that the server 
doesn't start up which will cause dpkg to report an installation error.

Thanks so much for working on this.  Your effort is greatly appreciated.


I found through copious use of echos near the end I found it was

reason.

I was able to resolve this by adding a db_stop to the end of the
postinst script.


Yes it is debconf which is hanging but why? After -6 there should be no 
more debconf questions in the package.  Yet you have clearly shown that 
debconf is in fact waiting for a question in some cases.  Perhaps there is 
a more complete/cleaner solution but for now I have added back the call to

After a reboot I could issue dpkg --configure -a which then configured

So you did not reboot after previous installs?  Perhaps the .po file was

Yes, by this time the new config file has been installed and whatever

Bug#771334: upgrade hosed dovecot; Couldn't parse private ssl_key: error:0906D06C:PEM routines:PEM_read_bio:no start line: Expecting: ANY PRIVATE KEY

After upgrading to this version, I cannot connect to dovecot's imap or

The only substantive change in -7 was to comment out the ssl_cert and 
ssl_key entries in /etc/dovecot/conf.d/10-ssl.conf.  This is so people who 
do not have certificates set up (e.g. in new installs) don't run into this 
problem.  But you are upgrading from an existing working setup right?  In 
that case dpkg should have warned you that you are upgrading a conffile. 
Did that not happen?


Actually I just looked and it seems the configuration files are not 
getting marked as conffiles even though we are handling them with ucfr. 
Let me investigate why this is happening.

Bug#771334: upgrade hosed dovecot; Couldn't parse private ssl_key: error:0906D06C:PEM routines:PEM_read_bio:no start line: Expecting: ANY PRIVATE KEY

2014-11-28 Thread Jaldhar H. Vyas


After further investigation this seems to be the problem.

Originally the dovecot-core postinst created self-signed ssl certificates 
and modified /etc/dovecot/conf.d/10-ssl.conf to enable them.  ucf managed 
upgrades to these files.


As of 2.2.13-6 we stopped doing that.  However this meant that new users 
who did not have certs got an error because dovecot tries to use the 
non-existent certificate.


So in 2.2.13-7 the configuration is shipped with the ssl cert location 
bits commented out.  Now new users and anyone who has modified the 
locations in ssl_cert and ssl_key can successfully install or upgrade. 
But people like you have a 10-ssl.conf that looks exactly like the default 
one in -6.  So apparently ucf thinks you haven't modified the default 
configuration and blindly installs the new configuration on top of it.


I don't know if that should be considered a bug in ucf but the workaround 
in dovecot-cores postinst  I am thinking of is to check the values of 
ssl_cert and ssl_key and see if there are actually files there and if so, 
avoid commenting them out or maybe it will be simple to change the value 
of the ssl parameter to no by default.  (It seems obvious but I have a 
nagging feeling it might not work.  I'll experiment.)

Missing SSL certificate, as reported in #732263

It was the missing certificates which were causing the postinst to hang.

I have just uploaded 1:2.2.13-7 which should fix this problem.  It is 
going into unstable now and will reach testing (Jessie) in another 10 
days. If you want to continue with -6, you can fix it yourself by 
commenting out the ssl_cert and ssl_key entries from 
/etc/dovecot/conf.d/10-ssl.conf (or making sure they point to valid 
certificates) and reinstalling.

Thanks for the patch but if the diagnosis is correct it seems it will not

Sorry for not responding sooner I was unexpectedly swamped during the new 
year.

The breakage is even worse.

1. The code that causes the problem is intended to set the *new*

No the idea was that if you have the certs in the old location, only to 
update 10-ssl.conf and make sure it has the right configuration 
values otherwise leave them alone.



2. NEVER EVER touch user confiuration! It even breaks *own* paths set.
3. Why?
4. Why??
5. Why???



The idea was to move the self-generated certs only.  Obviously I did not 
consider the scenario where a user had their own certificates but did 
not remove the dummy certificates which leads me to...



Here is a patch that leaves site-local confiuration as it is if it does
not reference the default files and only touches it when it referenced
the old default path before. It even uses the *new* path, sih ... did the
maintainer even test this *once*?


I do try and test this package as much as possible and I even had several 
other people test it before uploading but they didn't catch this either. 
The way Debians process is supposed to work is that packages get uploaded 
to unstable and with a wider audience problems will get caught before the 
package migrates to testing and mostly it works.  But it seems that with 
dovecot people wait until it is already in testing before trying it which 
defeats the whole scheme.


So what we really need is more testing before an upload even happens.  In 
theory there is a team maintaining this package but in practice the others 
have even less free time than I do and this last year I have had next to 
no time at all.  (I mean its been 3 weeks since this problem was reported 
and I'm only just responding. That would be unacceptable as a user even to 
me.)  I try and recruit anyone who shows interest but that hasn't worked 
either so far.  So once again, I ask anyone reading this who cares about 
the best possible dovecot package in Debian to pitch in.  It's easy to get 
access to the source repository and I'll help in anyway I can even giving 
you ownership if you can do a better job.


In the meantime I am preparing a new revision which will include your 
patch and better documentation of the situation.  That's the best I can do 
for now.


However, the only valid way to handle this is NOT handle it. Or do the 
modification in the ucf template *before* runnin ucf so it is merged 
into the confi file if and *only* if the user chooses to apply the 
chanes.


Yes all this stuff needs to be moved over to ucf.  I had someone offer to 
do this before the freeze began but then they disappeared and by that time 
it was too late for me to make such an invasive change.  (See above.)

We want to avoid setting mail_access_group=mail because then a user would

But I can't do that.  See #693114.  So I had to pick something as a

Therefore, this change breaks systems using Maildir!

Workaround is to either comment out or explicitly use Maildir:

Yes.

Package: dovecot
Version: 1:2.1.7-4

Dear Maintainer,

After an update from 1:2.1.7-2 to 1:2.1.7-4, I could not access my
mailboxes at ~/Maildir any more.

(This may be related to #644121.)



No I don't think so.  This on the other hand:


I noticed the following line in conf.d/10-mail.conf:

,
| mail_location = mbox:~/mail:INBOX=/var/mail/%u
`




From /usr/share/doc/dovecot-core/README.Debian (and NEWS.Debian)



* In conf.d/10-mail.conf, the default mail_location is set to
mbox:~/mail:INBOX=/var/mail/%u
This has to be set because Dovecots auto-detection of mailboxes fails
when a user has no mail.  I tried to provide a reasonable default
but advanced users will certainly want to change this.

Related to this, you might see an error in the logs about dovecot not
being able to chgrp certain files.  This is because the default user
mailboxes in Debian belong to group mail which dovecot is not part of
(nor should be.)  The Debian package has been patched so that the error
will not be fatal but for a more permanent solution, see here:
http://wiki2.dovecot.org/Errors/ChgrpNoPerm  for some discussion.  Or
you can set mail_location (and the equivalent settings in your MDA) so
that mailboxes are in the users home directory.



My git (etckeeper) repository shows that previously, mail_location had
been commented out. Commenting it out again fixes the problem for me.
(Is ~/Maildir the default value set at compile time?)



No but auto-detection worked because you already had mail.  If you hadn't 
you would have run into #623440


I'm really stuck as to how to handle this.  Debian policy demands 
/var/mail be  owned by group mail.  If I had left the status quo, all new 
users would have had the same problem you've faced.  But fixing it for 
them causes problems for you.


I'm leaving this bug open in case you (or anyone else) have some solution 
but I really don't think anything more can be done.

I'd rather that you just remove the swf files from the package, and

Good point.  There are only four components that include swf files.  It 
should be possible to seperate them out into a non-free package.  I'll 
bear that in mind if there is no way to keep it all in main.

I've put out a call for help but the package may need to be removed if no

This is mainly to fix the 0777 base_dir creation issue, which could be
considered a security hole, exploitable by local users. An attacker
could for example replace Dovecot's auth socket and log in as other
users. Gaining root privileges isn't possible though.

This affects only v1.2 users, v1.1 and older versions were creating the

Thanks for the heads up.  I am in the process of packaging this version.

Dear maintainer,

I've prepared an NMU for libcgi-application-basic-plugin-bundle-perl
(versioned as 0.4+nmu1) and uploaded it to DELAYED/2, according to
devref §5.11.1. The patch uses a better version predicate for an already
existing Conflicts and adds a new Replaces relationship. Both measures
ensures that upgrade from the Lenny version would work without a file
overwrite error. In fact, the bug this NMU is fixing is not reproducible
with the current Squeeze versions, but only with the +lenny1 version
visible in the log against the current Squeeze version.



Thanks for doing this.  I've been short of time plus I've been playing 
around with moving this package to the 3.0 format thus making my sources 
temporarily  unuploadable.  Once that is all sorted out I will add the 
patch.

In this version we changed mbox_write_locks to fnctl dotlock to conform

Not remain, but become. The font is currently distributed in Debian

To debian-in-workers: AksharYogini font is not likely to be non

The patch is trivial: drop it from ttf-indic-fonts and eventually
create a ttf-indic-fonts-nonfree source package with it included.

Again, something has to be done as this release critical bug is likely
to make the entire ttf-indic-fonts package dropped from Debian main,
which is certainly not what we want.



As I finally have some time again I was getting ready to write a nice

This appears to be your problem here:

epoll_create(128)   = -1 ENOSYS (Function not

write(2, Fatal: , 7)  = -1 EBADF (Bad file descriptor)
write(2, epoll_create(): Bad file descrip..., 35) = -1 EBADF (Bad file

write(2, \n, 1)   = -1 EBADF (Bad file descriptor)

Does your kernel not support epoll?

The other question is why is dovecot trying to use it?  I thought you 
needed to have a special configure option to enable it and poll(2) is used 
by default.  Investigating...

It is perhaps worth reissuing this erratum having

Yes please send me any information you have ASAP so we can deal with this

I've prepared the packages with both dovecot-lda and drac support, but
considering that I don't use these things I'd prefer if somebody
could try them and give me some feedback.

Has anyone had a chance to test Fabios packages yet?  We would really like 
to get this version uploaded ASAP.


btw, we will probably have to drop the drac support for the time being as 
Debians' drac package is a bit broken.  Hopefully that will get resolved 
soon.

The previos version of this package included /usr/lib/dovecot/deliver. This
version does not. There was no warning of any kind that deliver would be
removed. Anyone using deliver as a local deliver agent will lose all
incoming mail.

You're right there should have been a warning about this though.

I'm sorry I see absolutely no way dpkg could have just decided to 
overwrite your config.  You must have some setting somewhere that tells it 
to do this.


I'm not going to close the bug report because there may be something I'm 
missing but I'm reducing the severity. Dovecot will not be able to enter 
testing otherwise.


I would appreciate it if you would keep me informed on any new info you 
find about this bug and I'm sorry we cannot come to a definitive 
resolution yet.

Was your original config in /etc or /etc/dovecot?

Hmm, I find this a little difficult to believe.  The Debian package system 
doesn't overwrite conffiles unless you specifically ask it to. Which 
version were you upgrading from?  Did the entire configuration get 
overwritten or only certain settings?

Does this mean the bug can be closed now?

Btw, was NFS involved at all?  Stale NFS handles can cause this type of

Lukas, in /var/log/mail.log do you see anything about generating SSL

Hi,

sorry I didn't reply to this bug for so long.  I finally had some time to 
look at it and I believe I have fixed the problem.  -2 was just uploaded 
to the archive and should be available tomorrow.  If there is still an

Hopefully, this was happen with only one user's inbox. I'm not sure

My guess is the mbox is indeed corrupt.  Can you check for e.g. double

I did'nt grep on other releases sources, but feeling this bug, I relayed on
mail form author.

Actually this code is in testing release, but upgrade priority from 0.9x to
1.0 is set to low,
and I hope, lot of users considered to wait with upgrade, and they shoudn't.



Ah I'm sorry, I misunderstood what you were saying.  The way Debian 
releases work, code once frozen, is never upgraded except for security 
problems and I don't think this quite counts.  I'll ask about it though.

Thanks for the report Mike.

Olivier, can you confirm if 1.0.alpha3 solves your problem?  Because other 
people have it working I suspect this is a local configuration problem at 
your end but I don't immediately notice anything in the config you posted 
that could cause it.  Let me know if it still doesn't work and we can

Hi,

It's now failing to build with:
mknod debian/ttyS47 c 4 111
mknod: `debian/ttyS47': Operation not permitted

mknod() is a privileged system call, you need root/CAP_MKNOD for
this.



I built this package under pbuilder 0.128  and the standard 
2.6.8 kernel on sarge so it must be a permissions (or capabilities) 
problem of some sort.


Another possibility is you could have tried to build it on a partition 
mounted nodev.



I have to wonder why it failed to build in the first place, every
system really should have something like a /dev/ttyS1 or
/dev/tty1, and I think the problem was on the submitters setup
rather than a bug in the package.

If pbuilder does not have those thing in /dev, I'd say it's a
problem with pbuilder.



It does but it would cause output to the real /dev/ttyS1 which
could be a bad thing if you have e.g. a modem hanging off it.

Perhaps the only foolproof solution is to disable the tests.
