Bug#982722: libatteanx-serializer-rdfa-perl: FTBFS: dh_auto_test: error: make -j1 test TEST_VERBOSE=1 returned exit code 2
Hi! Just to say as upstream that this patch seems appropriate. I'll have a conversation with the author of one of the modules that I depend on to confirm, and then I'll probably apply it upstream and roll a new release. Best, Kjetil
Bug#922878: Upstream fixes available
Hi all! So, I gotta admit as upstream dev of two of the modules that failed, that this is partly my fault. And I am happy to report that I have fixed it upstream for two packages. The root cause is that librdf-ns-perl is based on a crowd-sourced database, and sometimes crowd-sourced things change. The occasional breakage is usually a small price to pay for access to the large, crowdsourced database, but for a stable environment, like Debian, it can cause some headaches. Finding the right balance can sometimes be hard, and I therefore suggested one change to librdf-ns-perl that made it into this release, and that has now been reverted. I still think that the change is appropriate, and I think it should not be applied, as it merely fixes a symptom and not the root cause, and might lead to breakage for those who do not rely on RDF::NS for the entire lifetime of the distribution, but upgrades from upstream. Moreover, I suspect it doesn't fix the problem for librdf-aref-perl, that's still failing, right? The breakage seen there is directly due to that a prefix has changed in the crowdsourced database, and only upstream can really fix that. The actual root cause in libatteanx-serializer-rdfa-perl and librdf-trine- serializer-rdfa-perl was a particularly embarrassing and silly mistake on my part. It just failed very rarely, since testers would generally have both RDF::NS and RDF::Prefixes installed... I have now released a new upstream version of both, and I think that librdf-ns-perl should be unchanged from the upstream. Best, Kjetil
Bug#750946: Update on the upstream side
Hi all! Greg has made a patch and a pull request: https://github.com/tobyink/p5-html-html5-parser/pull/3 but so far, we haven't heard from the main developer. Also, as you can see, the patch is met with some resistance, so we're not really sure how to solve this now... Meanwhile, we should relax the relationships between this module and the RDF toolchain. The HTML parser really is somewhat on the outskirts and isn't a dependency to any of it, so it shouldn't have that far-reaching consequences. Cheers, Kjetil
Bug#750946: Tests created
Hi all! I ended up reformulating the code as a test script: https://github.com/kjetilk/p5-html-html5-parser/blob/master/t/rt-96399.t This is the way I thought it should be, but with Greg's patch, the test intended to check the UNICODE char still fails for me... It may well be that the test is wrong, please poke at it :-) Cheers, Kjetil

Right, I got an email from Debian testing autoremoval watch saying it was about to be removed, but nevermind. The code can be checked out from https://bitbucket.org/tobyink/p5-html-html5-parser or https://github.com/tobyink/p5-html-html5-parser AFAIK, Toby prefers Hg. May I suggest that the test cases in this bug are rewritten so that they can go in the test harness (i.e. as .t files), and a pull request is opened for that. Then, Greg's suggested patch seems to go at the core issue, so that seems like the thing to do. With this, Toby can hopefully make a new release soon. Best, Kjetil

I just noticed https://bugs.debian.org/750946 since my Test::RDF depends on HTML::HTML5::Parser (though, I don't quite understand how that dependency arises) and I would be affected by a removal.

Bug#678779: RDFa parser problem
Hi! Just a quick comment. First of all, it seems like it is a problem with the RDFa parser, since this module is a relatively thin wrapper around librdf- rdfa-parser-perl. The test that fails is very terse though, so it is hard to tell. One thing that could be useful for upstream is to run the test suite with prove -lv Also, a core module, RDF::Trine has seen a 1.0 bugfix and stabilizing release. However, it doesn't seem to be to blame, as the previous version was used in the build, from the full log: - RDF::Trine ...loaded. (0.140 = 0.130) Not a whole lot to go on here, but it seems like an upstream problem. Cheers, Kjetil -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to debian-bugs-rc-requ...@lists.debian.org with a subject of unsubscribe.

This should have been fixed in upstream 2.0.3 allthough it was not mentioned in the changelog.

Bug#402241: spamassassin needs more than 512MB to process innocent 2.5MB email
On Fri, 8 Dec 2006, Duncan Findlay wrote: It's generally a bad idea (i.e. not supported) to stick messages larger than 250k through spamassassin. The spamc client refuses to check messages larger than this size, and the example procmailrc in /usr/share/doc/spamassassin/examples/procmailrc.example mentions this. The only reason I haven't closed this bug is because I can't figure out where this is documented. :-) IMHO, if it's not supported, then spamassassin should do nothing on those messages (unless, maybe, some additional flag is used), instead of processing them, I might agree that spamassassin should do nothing on a message that it isn't intended to, and we should not need the procmail recipe to checks for the mail size. ...but I can't agree with this. It is very clearly documented in the quoted procmail example, and people should read and understand that example before using a nuclear device like spamassassin. spam scanning in this day is a non-trivial exercise (you might do OCR on attachments for example), and administrators need to understand that.

Bug#391634: A patch that makes modxslt compile
Hi! A colleague took upon himself to make it compile from upstream source, and the following patches is what he needed to make it compile. There seems to be a simple patch needed for the upstream code itself. Also, he hacked the configure script itself, not the autoconfigure. However, this may indicate that some of the things in there are redundant. Also, he did not find a solution to the ac_cv_lib_apr_0_apr_send thing, as you can see.

Bug#391634: Trying to work on modxslt bug #391634
Hi there! I've been trying to work on this bug, as I just realised that it'll be 10 times as painful to fix it after etch is released than before... Problem is that my bash skills isn't very good.

The variable is populated OK, but it doesn't have the desired effect. However, is this all really needed? In the final LIBS line, it apr-config, which returns everything that is needed, I would think...? I'm confused here, but I'd like to fix this bug, in spite of the few skills I have in this arena. -- Kjetil Kjernsmo Information Systems Developer Opera Software ASA -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of unsubscribe.

Bug#356810: Serious bug in security update for Crypt::CBC
Hi all! Sorry to be jumping in without preserving the In-Reply-To. Allard Hoeve wrote: I'm afraid this new package introduces some serious errors in software that depends on this package. I have tested the new package on three different Sarge machines with the following results. Please reproduce using attached perl script. This bug jumped up and bit us too during testing, and it has been reported as bug #356810: http://bugs.debian.org/356810 so, it is now clear that it poses a serious problem for users, as it breaks the default behaviour. However, Please remove the update from the security archive. ...it is not that simple. If you read the original advisory: http://www.securityfocus.com/archive/1/archive/1/425966/100/0/threaded you'll see that we have (indirectly) been relying on weak and deprecated behaviour. While this is not the sort of breakage you expect from stable, it underlines that security is not just about blindly upgrading packages. So, it is probably better to get a heads-up from something that breaks down than getting the heads up from someone who breaks in... :-) The problem in this case is that we don't know if it is serious: The difficulty of breaking data encrypted using this flawed algorithm is unknown, but it should be assumed that all information encrypted in this way has been, or could someday be, compromised. Given that the upgrade certainly breaks stable, a DSA could have suggested the workaround as the correct path for sysadmins: If using Crypt::CBC versions 2.16 and lower, pass the -salt=1 option to Crypt::CBC-new(). I.e., say you should do this now to upgrade your systems. Many users are likely to be bit by this upgrade, so, indeed, it may be a reasonable path to remove the security upgrade and instead suggest the workaround.

Bug#337206: Subject: libdbd-mysql-perl: Machine with latest mysql security update segfaults, rebuild needed?
Package: libdbd-mysql-perl Version: 2.9006-1 Severity: grave Justification: causes non-serious data loss *** Please type your report below this line *** I have a relatively simple script that segfaults on a machine that has the latest security updates for sarge, but runs fine on a machine that has not yet applied them. There is an strace at http://rafb.net/paste/results/68YHWC13.html I took it to #debian-devel, and...: ruoso If one security update touched a library which is used by the Perl XS module... then this can be the cause of the problem KjetilK hmmm ruoso aparently, this is what's happening... ruoso libdbd-mysql-perl should be rebuilt KjetilK guess so... ruoso KjetilK, can you send a bug report on it? KjetilK Sure So, here we go!

Bug#300614: Same as #281628?
Tags: sarge sid upstream H, I think this is the same as http://bugs.debian.org/281628 Though I'm kinda surprised to see it, I thought it had been fixed in 3.3.2... Actually, I haven't seen it lately, even though I haven't upgraded yet. Also, it never caused any data loss for me.
