I suppose so. I don't really know why I put it there in the first place.
:-) I was debugging a program and thought that was the easiest way to use
the dbg libs.

Should --- though, according to policy, libc6 will only be unpacked. But
since it is Essential: yes, it should work that way.

What a fun bug. Hope you have sash installed ;-)

The is the new unstable.  We don't care about upgrades.  Didn't you get the

Don't add display managers. At least with gdm I'm pretty sure that will
kill X sessions... [Not willing to test this, of course]

Eh?  __libc_* isn't hidden, only particular functions.  That's not the

I'm investigating this. I have a libgcc-comat patch for mips (
http://honk.physik.uni-konstanz.de/linux-mips/glibc/patches/experimental/libgcc-compat-mips.dpatch
 
) and am currently scanning the unstable distribution. The tests in my
small chroot showed that a libgcc-compat for mips might not be
necessary, but only the complete scan will show.

This is the problem. As I understand, __libc_* is now hidden and
unaccessible.

So the function is unaccessible...

It seems that these problems appear in many programs in the
distribution, maybe with other functions too

Bug#165412: libc6: SIGRTMIN defined as -1 with libc 2.3.1, as 32 with 2.2.5

2002-10-18 Thread Oskar Liljeblad
Package: libc6
Version: 2.3.1-1
Severity: important

(I consider this important as it breaks all programs using this
signal entirely. I wouldn't blame you for lowing the severity
though...)

Ok, SIGRTMIN evaluates to -1 with libc6 2.3.1. With libc6 2.2.5
it would evaluate to 32.

SIGRTMIN is defined glibc-2.3.1/sysdeps/unix/sysv/{arch}/bits/signum.h
as:

  #define SIGRTMIN(__libc_current_sigrtmin ())

The function __libc_current_sigrtmin is defined in
glibc-2.3.1/sysdeps/generic/allocrtsig.c like this:

  int
  __libc_current_sigrtmin (void)
  {
  #ifdef __SIGRTMIN
if (!initialized)
  init ();
  #endif
return current_rtmin;
  }

__SIGRTMIN is also defined in the signum.h file specified above,
like this:

  #define __SIGRTMIN  32

The init function is defined like this:

  static void
  init (void)
  {  
if (!kernel_has_rtsig ())
  {
current_rtmin = -1;
current_rtmax = -1;
  }
else
  {
current_rtmin = __SIGRTMIN;
current_rtmax = __SIGRTMAX;
  }
initialized = 1;
  }

And kernel_has_rtsig is defined in two places, sysdeps/generic/testrtsig.h
and sysdeps/unix/sysv/linux/testrtsig.h. In the former, it is defined
like this:

  static int
  kernel_has_rtsig (void)
  {
return 0;
  }

And in the latter:

  static int
  kernel_has_rtsig (void)
  {
  #if __ASSUME_REALTIME_SIGNALS
return 1;
  #else
struct utsname name;

return uname (&name) == 0 && __strverscmp (name.release, "2.1.70") >= 0;
  #endif
  }

Maybe the problem is that when glibc-2.3.1/sysdeps/generic/allocrtsig.c
includes testrtsig.h, it does it like this:

  #include "testrtsig.h"

and the wrong file is used. I don't know...

The ssh problem is probably the known bug that anything using NSS
needs to be restarted after the libc upgrade.  The next package will
warn about that.

I've been using test versions of the 2.3 package for almost a month
now and haven't seen any su segfaults.  Please investigate that
further.

It had never occured to me to put the debug path in the cache file.
I'm not sure how common of a scenario that is, or it should've bitten
someone before.

If noone else comments on it, then I will put that change in.

The trick here is that they're not calling waitpid, they're calling
__libc_waitpid, which is not a published call.  All internal
interfaces are now hiden from user applications, and any applications
which used them (despite the fact that they were undocumented and
didn't appear in headers) will now break.

Newer versions of the jdk fix this bug.

This is a known problem, 2.3.1-2 will contain the right warning.
Restart sshd (and anything else that does NSS lookups) after upgrading
glibc and you'll be fine.

2.3.1-2 will have a warning saying that you need to restart all
NSS-using services.  After you upgrade, restart your local SMTP
service, and you'll be fine.

We've been over this before. Problem is, it's almost impossible to tell
which ones will need it till they actually fail. We've generally just
done the libc6 upgreade and wait for bug reports on services that need
to be added to the list.

The ssh problem is probably the known bug that anything using NSS
needs to be restarted after the libc upgrade.  The next package will
warn about that.

I've been using test versions of the 2.3 package for almost a month
now and haven't seen any su segfaults.  Please investigate that
further.

Do you think making libc6-dbg pre-depend instead of depend'ing on
libc6 (= 2.3.1-1) would work?

Bug#165358: A few more details on libc6 2.3.1-1 breakage

2002-10-18 Thread Vincenzo Gervasi

The update broke other packages as well.
For example, java reports


Error occurred during initialization of VM
Unable to load native library:
/usr/java/j2sdk1.4.0/jre/lib/i386/libjava.so: symbol __libc_waitpid,
version GLIBC_2.0 not defined in file libc.so.6 with link time reference

I am not sure whether waitpid is the only call affected or not. In the
various changelogs for libc6 there is no mention of changes affecting
that particular call.

Bug#165373: libc6: cannot login using ssh

2002-10-18 Thread Arthur de Jong

Subject: libc6: cannot login using ssh
Package: libc6
Version: 2.3.1-1
Severity: normal
Tags: sid

This problem is introduced when using libc6_2.3.1-1_i386.deb, when reinstalling
libc6_2.2.5-15_i386.deb the problem goes away.

When I try to login from a remote (woody) host to a sid host:
% ssh spiritus
Connection to spiritus closed by remote host.
Connection to spiritus closed.

The relevant output of ssh -v spiritus (spiritus runs sid):
...
debug1: try pubkey: /home/arthur/.ssh/id_rsa
debug1: input_userauth_pk_ok: pkalg ssh-rsa blen 149 lastkey 0x80918b0 hint 0
debug1: read PEM private key done: type RSA
debug1: ssh-userauth2 successful: method publickey
debug1: channel 0: new [client-session]
debug1: send channel open 0

debug1: channel_free: channel 0: client-session, nchannels 1

debug1: Transferred: stdin 0, stdout 0, stderr 79 bytes in 0.0 seconds
debug1: Bytes per second: stdin 0.0, stdout 0.0, stderr 8319.2
debug1: Exit status -1

So I successfully autheticate using ssh keys and when the session is started 
something
bums out. On the target (spiritus/sid) machine I get in /var/log/auth.log:

Oct 18 12:54:25 spiritus sshd[14571]: Could not reverse map address

 Authentication service cannot retrieve authentication info.
Oct 18 12:54:25 spiritus sshd[14571]: fatal: monitor_read: unsupported request: 
24

The first is also strange since 'dig -x 192.168.12.1' produces the
expected results. If I use libc6_2.2.5-15_i386.deb I get:

Oct 18 13:01:44 spiritus sshd[14886]: Accepted publickey for arthur from

and I get a session.

The user that I try to login as has an account in /etc/passwd.

Hmm, I wonder if it would be saner to have some mechanism (perhaps
just a directory fed to run-parts?) for packages to register
themselves for the next time this sort of change happens; having libc
list affected services itself does strike me as a layering violation.

OTOH, such events seem pretty rare (yay for compatibility within minor
versions), so adding extra infrastructure for them may be overkill.

On the gripping hand, Debian has always (rightly) placed a lot of
value on infrastructure AFAICT.

Thoughts?  (Obviously this is too late to use for 2.2 -> 2.3, but it
should be possible to complete the transition in plenty of time for
whatever follows it [2.4? 3.0?].)

It had never occured to me to put the debug path in the cache file.
I'm not sure how common of a scenario that is, or it should've bitten
someone before.

If noone else comments on it, then I will put that change in.

Bug#165374: Breaks when upgrading to 2.3.1

2002-10-18 Thread Per Lundberg
Package: libc6-dbg
Version: 2.3.1-1
Severity: critical

If libc6-dbg is installed, and /usr/lib/debug is the first line in
/etc/ld.so.conf, the upgrade from previous versions of libc6 to 2.3.1-1
breaks the system.

The problem is that libc6-dbg is unpacked BEFORE libc6, and libc6 2.3.1-1
requires the new dynamic linked ld-linux.so.2 (which has not been installed
yet). Thus, dpkg-dbg is unpacked correctly, but when trying to unpack libc6
(and running any other program from this point on) things fail badly since
it tries to load libc from /usr/lib/debug/libc6.so... which don't work, since
the new ld-linux.so.2 has not been installed yet.

A temporary workaround if you are in this situation is to first remove the
line from /etc/ld.so.conf and rerun ldconfig, before you try the update.
Otherwise your system will break so bad it can't even be shutdown properly.

I have no proposed solution how to solve this bug in the package, for I
presume libc6 cannot be installed before packages that depend on a certain
version of it (libc6-dbg) has been updated. Perhaps a debconf warning or
a 'head -1 /etc/ld.so.conf' to see if the user is vulnerable to this bug?

where did 2.3.1-1 on ppc go?

2002-10-18 Thread Jack Howarth
   What happened to the glibc 2.3.1-1 ppc deb packages built
on voltaire yesterday? They showed up on incoming.debian.org
and seemed to pass okay according to the log at buildd.debian.org
but were never moved into sid. Are they on hold or something?

I suppose so; but I do not know exactly how the internals of dpkg work.
All I know is that my system broke down badly which was not such a happy
experience. :-)

I'd say strip it. It works for me, and otherwise lots of people like

glibc 2.3.1-1 needs restarting network services

2002-10-18 Thread GOTO Masanori
We debian-glibc maintainer team got some reports and complaints about
upgrading glibc 2.3.1-1 package, so please read this if you use this
new one.

After upgrading libc package, then please stop-and-start network
services/daemons, because name service switch is changed in glibc 2.3.

ex) inetd
/etc/init.d/inetd stop
/etc/init.d/inetd start

Be careful that doing '/etc/init.d/inetd restart' has no meaning.
We plan to release glibc 2.3.1-2 soon, it warns and restarts services.

In addition, we got some reports that java, wine, and mzscheme do
not work on glibc 2.3.1. They call libc internal functions that are
not exported and not guaranteed to use through the different glibc
versions, so please fix their packages.

Regards,

The trick here is that they're not calling waitpid, they're calling
__libc_waitpid, which is not a published call.  All internal
interfaces are now hiden from user applications, and any applications
which used them (despite the fact that they were undocumented and
didn't appear in headers) will now break.

Newer versions of the jdk fix this bug.

We've been over this before. Problem is, it's almost impossible to tell
which ones will need it till they actually fail. We've generally just
done the libc6 upgreade and wait for bug reports on services that need
to be added to the list.

This is a known problem, 2.3.1-2 will contain the right warning.
Restart sshd (and anything else that does NSS lookups) after upgrading

Do you think making libc6-dbg pre-depend instead of depend'ing on
libc6 (= 2.3.1-1) would work?

Bug#165358: A few more details on libc6 2.3.1-1 breakage

2002-10-18 Thread Vincenzo Gervasi

The update broke other packages as well.
For example, java reports


Error occurred during initialization of VM
Unable to load native library:
/usr/java/j2sdk1.4.0/jre/lib/i386/libjava.so: symbol __libc_waitpid,
version GLIBC_2.0 not defined in file libc.so.6 with link time reference

I am not sure whether waitpid is the only call affected or not. In the
various changelogs for libc6 there is no mention of changes affecting
that particular call.

Heh, restart display managers is outside the scope of libc. Restarting
services is pushing it enough I think.

You are correct. I'm surprised I didn't remember that before 2.3.1 was
uploaded.

We need to get out a 2.3.1-2 real quick to fix this before we get
flooded with hundres of bug reports.

Bug#165358: libc6 2.3.1-1 breaks fetchmail/exim (and others?)

2002-10-18 Thread Rene Engelhard
Package: libc6
Version: 2.3.1-1
Severity: critical
Justification: breaks unrelated software

Hi,

I yesterday upgraded glibc to the 2.3.1-1 release and suddenly my
fetchmail does not work complaining it cannot connect to local SMTP.

Downgrading all *libc* and locales Packages to 2.2.5-15 fixes that...

Sid, i386

Regards,

Rene

Bug#165373: libc6: cannot login using ssh

2002-10-18 Thread Arthur de Jong

Subject: libc6: cannot login using ssh
Package: libc6
Version: 2.3.1-1
Severity: normal
Tags: sid

This problem is introduced when using libc6_2.3.1-1_i386.deb, when reinstalling
libc6_2.2.5-15_i386.deb the problem goes away.

When I try to login from a remote (woody) host to a sid host:
% ssh spiritus
Connection to spiritus closed by remote host.
Connection to spiritus closed.

The relevant output of ssh -v spiritus (spiritus runs sid):
...
debug1: try pubkey: /home/arthur/.ssh/id_rsa
debug1: input_userauth_pk_ok: pkalg ssh-rsa blen 149 lastkey 0x80918b0 hint 0
debug1: read PEM private key done: type RSA
debug1: ssh-userauth2 successful: method publickey
debug1: channel 0: new [client-session]
debug1: send channel open 0
debug1: Entering interactive session.
debug1: channel_free: channel 0: client-session, nchannels 1
Connection to spiritus closed by remote host.
Connection to spiritus closed.
debug1: Transferred: stdin 0, stdout 0, stderr 79 bytes in 0.0 seconds
debug1: Bytes per second: stdin 0.0, stdout 0.0, stderr 8319.2
debug1: Exit status -1

So I successfully autheticate using ssh keys and when the session is started something
bums out. On the target (spiritus/sid) machine I get in /var/log/auth.log:

Oct 18 12:54:25 spiritus sshd[14571]: Could not reverse map address 192.168.12.1.
Oct 18 12:54:25 spiritus sshd[14571]: PAM rejected by account configuration[9]:  
Authentication service cannot retrieve authentication info.
Oct 18 12:54:25 spiritus sshd[14571]: fatal: monitor_read: unsupported request: 24

The first is also strange since 'dig -x 192.168.12.1' produces the
expected results. If I use libc6_2.2.5-15_i386.deb I get:

Oct 18 13:01:44 spiritus sshd[14886]: Accepted publickey for arthur from 192.168.12.1 
port 3947 ssh2
Oct 18 13:01:44 spiritus ssh(pam_unix)[14888]: session opened for user arthur by 
(uid=1000)

and I get a session.

group:  files ldap
shadow: files ldap
hosts:  files dns
networks:   files
protocols:  db files
services:   db files

my /etc/resolv.conf:

The user that I try to login as has an account in /etc/passwd.

The versions of pam (libpam-modules, libpam-runtime, libpam0g) I tried this with are:
0.76-3, 0.76-4, 0.76-5 and 0.76-6. All these versions fail.

Bug#165258: libc6: Should restart services when upgrading from versions prior to 2.3

2002-10-18 Thread Aaron M. Ucko
Ben Collins <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> writes:

> Heh, restart display managers is outside the scope of libc. Restarting

Hmm, I wonder if it would be saner to have some mechanism (perhaps
just a directory fed to run-parts?) for packages to register
themselves for the next time this sort of change happens; having libc
list affected services itself does strike me as a layering violation.

OTOH, such events seem pretty rare (yay for compatibility within minor
versions), so adding extra infrastructure for them may be overkill.

On the gripping hand, Debian has always (rightly) placed a lot of
value on infrastructure AFAICT.

Thoughts?  (Obviously this is too late to use for 2.2 -> 2.3, but it
should be possible to complete the transition in plenty of time for
whatever follows it [2.4? 3.0?].)

Bug#165374: Breaks when upgrading to 2.3.1

2002-10-18 Thread Per Lundberg
Package: libc6-dbg
Version: 2.3.1-1
Severity: critical

If libc6-dbg is installed, and /usr/lib/debug is the first line in
/etc/ld.so.conf, the upgrade from previous versions of libc6 to 2.3.1-1
breaks the system.

The problem is that libc6-dbg is unpacked BEFORE libc6, and libc6 2.3.1-1
requires the new dynamic linked ld-linux.so.2 (which has not been installed
yet). Thus, dpkg-dbg is unpacked correctly, but when trying to unpack libc6
(and running any other program from this point on) things fail badly since
it tries to load libc from /usr/lib/debug/libc6.so... which don't work, since
the new ld-linux.so.2 has not been installed yet.

A temporary workaround if you are in this situation is to first remove the
line from /etc/ld.so.conf and rerun ldconfig, before you try the update.
Otherwise your system will break so bad it can't even be shutdown properly.

I have no proposed solution how to solve this bug in the package, for I
presume libc6 cannot be installed before packages that depend on a certain
version of it (libc6-dbg) has been updated. Perhaps a debconf warning or
a 'head -1 /etc/ld.so.conf' to see if the user is vulnerable to this bug?

I guess what I was really wanting was the previous released (unstable) debs.  What version was that do you know?  Do you know where any are?  TIA

There were never any produced.  You should be able to hack some
together with few troubles.  I don't know enough about Java to offer

I'd say strip it. It works for me, and otherwise lots of people like
me with small root partitions will get into trouble.

Backward compatability is only guaranteed for published interfaces.

Java should not be refering to __libc_waitpid directly.  You may want

2.3.1 and jdk1.3.1_05

2002-10-18 Thread Richard Black




HI all,



I realize that this is a somewhat known problem but with libc6 2.3.1, java 1.3.1 (even with the latest patch) does not run:



$$ /usr/local/jdk1.3.1_05/bin/jar

Error occurred during initialization of VM

Unable to load native library: /usr/local/jdk1.3.1_05/jre/lib/i386/libjava.so: symbol __libc_wait, version GLIBC_2.0 not defined in file libc.so.6 with link time reference



This is obviously a bit of a problem, made marginally less severe by the fact that jdk 1.4 seems okay.



Is there any way around this?  If not, could any one point me towards some 2.2.94 debs so I can down grade--this would be much appreciated!



thanks



Richard
