I think changing /etc/resolv.conf automatically is broken at all.  We
should have a generated /run/resolv.conf that's overridden by the
settings in /etc/resolv.conf (if it exists).  This allows you to have a
consistent set of domains searched for matching hosts even when roaming
to other networks.  It also allows me to express the preference «I want
to use localhost as a nameserver, always» without resorting to chattr to
prevent dhclient, NetworkManager and other tools from auto-updating the
resolv.conf file.

Those criterias mix:
- criterias that apply to the RC bugs (no activity for > 14 days,
  affects testing+unstable, title contains "FTBFS")
- criterias that apply to the source package (no rev-depends,
  popcon<500)

Some time ago, I experimented[1,2,3] with coming up with a list of
criterias for "important packages" (which I just renamed to "key
packages" to avoid the confusion with priority:important).
Key packages are packages that must be part of our stable releases
(= that must be in good shape to allow a Debian release).

Currently, the following criterias are used:
| Key packages are:
| - packages whose popcon is higher than 5% of the max popcon (that's
|   >7570 insts currently)
| OR
| - packages of priority >= standard
| OR
| - packages of section debian-installer
| OR
| - debian-installer, debian-cd, piuparts
| OR
| - build-dependencies of key packages [binary dependencies are covered
|   by the popcon criteria]

[1] https://lists.debian.org/debian-devel/2013/05/msg00496.html
[2] http://udd.debian.org/cgi-bin/key_packages.cgi
[3] 
http://anonscm.debian.org/gitweb/?p=collab-qa/udd.git;a=blob;f=web/cgi-bin/key_packages.cgi

I think that having such criterias, and such a list of packages, would
be useful to better direct the work of RC bug-fixing. For example, there
are currently 1517 RC bugs affecting sid, but only 287 RC bugs affecting
sid's key packages. Of course, fixing all those 1517 RC bugs would be very
nice, but we might want to focus first on the 287 bugs, as those are the
ones really preventing Debian from being releasable.
Typically, the "key package" criteria could be used as a filter on
http://udd.debian.org/bugs.cgi .

Could you please comment on the criterias for key packages?  I would like
an "OK" from the release team before adding this to bugs.cgi, so that it's
not just "lucas made up those criterias".

Thanks,

Lucas

I believe that he's referring to ld.so.cache containing a mapping of $SONAME ->
$lib_realpath, so the broken symlink might not actually result in an
unresolvable library.

Candidates for removal from testing (2013-06-30)

2013-06-30 Thread Niels Thykier

-BEGIN PGP SIGNED MESSAGE-
Hash: SHA256


We are considering removing the following packages from testing as
they have unfixed RC bugs filed against them.  The packages can be
found in the attached dd-list.

The packages have been selected based on the following criteria:
 - The package had at least one RC bug without activity for the past
   14 days.
   - If a bug is assigned to multiple packages, both packages will
 be affected[1].
 - The RC bug affects both unstable and testing.
 - The affected package does not have any reverse dependencies in
   testing.

 - One of their RC bugs had "FTBFS" in their title. (*)
 - The source package had a popcon inst value of 500 or less. (*)

(*) These extra filter rules was applied to keep the list "down".  The
original list was 246.

If the relevant RC bugs in the affected packages (those listed in
"FTBFS-w-popcon-lt-500.txt") are not dealt with before the 8th of
July, the packages will be removed from testing.  Note that "dealt
with" may also include downgrading a severity-inflated bug or fixing
affected versions in the BTS.

For reference, the original list is also included.

Thanks,
Niels (on behalf of the Release Team)

I think that the first one is broken.  If name service is unavailable
just after boot then that should not be treated as a permanent error.

An answer from a nameserver that a domain name does not
exist might more reasonably be treated as a permanent error,
but that is disputable. In a world where computers move among
LANs, DNS does not always look the same, so it's not unreasonable
to retry periodically even after being told NXDOMAIN.

A problem is that getaddrinfo() doesn't distinguish in its return
status between "couldn't reach a nameserver" and "nameserver
says the name doesn't exist".  Either way it returns EAI_SYSTEM
with errno=2 (ENOENT).

It wasn't clear to me how this would be the case, so I reran the logs
with a piuparts mod making an ldconfig call before the symlink test.
It did not affect the results.

I appreciate the effort to collect contact information of upstream
devs, and I hope it will gain more traction. As of know, less than 1%
(6/752) of the packages containing crashes are included in the list.

That's possible because the self-signature is not actually

It's different further down the tree, and some protocols (including

A cursory glance shows that many cases are a problem of missing
dependencies in the -dev package, and that is usually a serious problem
(e.g., binaries get linked statically).

AFAIK most of these get fixed up by ldconfig, which means they're not a

setgid bit and TMPDIR

Hello List,

I want to pass TMPDIR to an executable with setgid bit:
I know that TMPDIR then discarded by glibc; but I also
noticed that TMPDIR can be passed provided that the group
is forced to be the grout of the executable.

Is there other tricks in the same vein ?

Looks like a false positive for this being a shared library.
  I have a feeling the particular case is just a left-over (i.e. now
unused) symlink rather than something that effects the functionality of
the package.

Mass bug filing for shared library broken symlinks detected by piuparts

2013-06-30 Thread Dave Steele
Shortly, piuparts.debian.org will be elevating the broken symlink test
in sid from a warning to an error status. In advance of that, bugs
submissions are planned against packages which are responsible for
such links.

This message covers the bug filings at the 'serious' severity due to a
Policy violation involving shared libraries. Section 8 states
"Packages containing shared libraries must be constructed with a
little care to make sure that the shared library is always available".

Discussion about bug filings at other severities may be handled in
separate threads.

The package list was generated by running an instance of
piuparts-slave/piuparts-master against sid, with the option
"--fail-on-broken-symlinks" enabled. The resulting list was
hand-massaged to eliminate a few packages which failed through the
fault of a dependency. These 'serious' bug candidates were identified
by testing the symlinks and targets against the regular expression
"/usr/lib/.*lib.*so".

There are 82 binary packages in this list, represented by 66 source
packages and 53 maintainers. This is about a quarter of all of the
packages reporting broken symlinks. A total of 279 broken symlinks are
being flagged as 'serious' due to shared library issues.

To see a piuparts log showing the broken symlinks, find the package
under http://piuparts.debian.org/sid/broken_symlinks_issue.html and
search for "WARN: Broken symlinks". That web page also lists reverse
dependencies of packages with the issue.

The initial bug reports will be based on this template:

Subject: Broken library symlink detected in 

Package: 
Version: 
Severity: serious
User: debian...@lists.debian.org
Usertags: piuparts, broken-symlinks, broken-symlink-shared-library

Hi,

During a test with piuparts, I noticed your package is
responsible for the presence of broken symlinks. Such failures
may indicate a significant problem with the package.

These are sometimes triggered because a Recommended or reverse
dependency package owning the symlink target file is not yet
installed. This type of failure mode needs to be eliminated so
that other symlink problems become more visible. In this case,
the problem can be resolved by creating a trigger for the
target file. See the dpkg triggers documentation[1] and example
on the net[2] for implementation details.

This is being filed as Serious because it represents a violation
of Policy. Section 8 states "Packages containing shared
libraries must be constructed with a little care to make sure
that the shared library is always available".

A link to the log containing the indicated broken symlinks can
be found on piuparts.debian.org[3]. Search for "Warn: Broken
Symlinks" to see the failure point. A log showing the broken
symlink as an error is appended.

The specific symlinks are as follows:



Note that there may be other broken symlinks. See the log for a

Re: boot ordering and resolvconf

Well, you are right that resolvconf was designed to support mode B,
and only supports mode A as a trivial case of mode B where a local
forwarding nameserver is always running.

That resolvconf leaves resolv.conf empty of "nameserver" entries when
no nameservers are available is intentional.  The idea is to advertise
only addresses where something is actually listening.

I understand, though, (vaguely) that this is not how things work in the
systemd world, so I expect that resolvconf, or the use of resolvconf,
will have to be adapted for the systemd world. Help and advice will be
appreciated: see bug report #700846.

By the way, inconsistent with the aforementioned idea is the fact that
the resolver defaults to using 127.0.0.1 if there are no "nameserver"
lines in resolv.conf. Were you aware of that?

Thanks for pointing that out.  I don't use unbound so I hadn't noticed that
resolvconf hook scripts have been added to the unbound package.  I will
update the resolvconf README.
