Bug#552233: locales: cannot map archive header: Invalid argument

2009-10-24 Thread Frans Pop
Package: locales
Version: 2.10.1-2
Severity: serious

During a regular upgrade from version 2.9.-25 I got the following error:

Generating locales (this might take a while)...
  en_US.UTF-8...cannot map archive header: Invalid argument
 done
Generation complete.

I read #524483, but this looks to be a different issue:

$ ls -al /usr/lib/locale/locale-archive
ls: cannot access /usr/lib/locale/locale-archive: No such file or directory

The system is rarely used, and thus infrequently updated, but has a
clean unstable installation. The file system is mounted rw and has plenty
of space.

Manually creating the directory does not fix the problem: if I do that and
then run 'dpkg-reconfigure locales', the directory gets deleted...

 Debian should make sure that binary/library compiled

 Does every package have to do this? I'm not very familiar with all the
 packaging requirements.

It is something that should automatically get done correctly as long as 
the libc-dev package defines the minimum version that way.

The mechanism that determines this is in /var/lib/dpkg/info/libc6.shlibs. 
Currently this has lines like:
   libc 6 libc6 (= 2.9)

It's virtually certain that the shlibs file will be updated to read
'(= 2.10)' when the glibc maintainers switch to that version.

Bug#474293: glibc: Add udeb: lines in shlibs files to improve udeb dependencies

Sorry for the late reply to this Aurelien.

 I have just checked-in this patch.

Thanks. The results are starting to become visible:
http://lists.debian.org/debian-release/2008/06/msg00217.html

 For the future, I wonder while those too small udeb are separated from
 the main udeb. They are really small compared to the main udeb file.

1) The libc from the main udeb gets reduced by a huge amount by stripping
   unused symbols when it is included in D-I initrds, although the full
   version gets loaded later. But the library reduction does make
   comparing the normal sizes incorrect.
2) libnss-dns-udeb is currently included in all initrds, so splitting that
   out is possibly not needed (anymore).
3) But libnss-files-udeb is only included in a small number of initrds and
   thus splitting it out helps reduce the size of all other initrds.

 I guess it's a bug in the test, but I am unable to reproduce the problem.

I should probably also have mentioned that this is in an i386 chroot on an 
amd64 box.

Same segfault happened during a second compile, so it looks to be 
reproducible for me.

How can I run the test separately?

Bug#474293: glibc: Add udeb: lines in shlibs files to improve udeb dependencies

2008-04-04 Thread Frans Pop
Package: glibc
Version: 2.7-10
Severity: wishlist
Tags: d-i patch

For Etch we fixed debhelper and most library packages that provide udebs to 
improve the dependencies generated for udebs, but we skipped glibc then as 
it's less important when the installer is running (as libc is always 
included in the D-I initrds anyway and thus pulled in at build time).

However, it would be great to have this fixed before Lenny as it will help 
with the implementation of britney support for udebs.

The attached patch will add udeb: lines in the various libc packages, for 
example for libc6:
udeb: ld-linux 2 libc6-udeb (= 2.7-1)
udeb: libm 6 libc6-udeb (= 2.7-1)
udeb: libdl 2 libc6-udeb (= 2.7-1)
udeb: libresolv 2 libc6-udeb (= 2.7-1)
udeb: libc 6 libc6-udeb (= 2.7-1)
udeb: libutil 1 libc6-udeb (= 2.7-1)
udeb: libcrypt 1 libc6-udeb (= 2.7-1)
udeb: librt 1 libc6-udeb (= 2.7-1)
udeb: libpthread 0 libc6-udeb (= 2.7-1)
udeb: libnss_dns 2 libnss-dns-udeb (= 2.7-1)
udeb: libnss_files 2 libnss-files-udeb (= 2.7-1)

Applying the patch should be safe and there are no transition issues. 
Possibly the change should be checked with Release Masters, but IMO it's 
not a problem to implement this at this stage of the release of Lenny.

After glibc has been uploaded with this patch, I plan to request binNMUs for 
all D-I packages that depend on libc to get their dependencies fixed.

Example of the effect of the patch
--
fdisk-udeb_2.13.1-3_i386.udeb currently has:
   Depends: libc6 (= 2.7-1)
when built against glibc with this patch this becomes:
   Depends: libc6-udeb (= 2.7-1)

Comments

We are aware the patch is a bit of a hack and the list of libs in the helper 
script will require some maintenance. We have discussed whether this could 
be implemented in debhelper instead, but this solution was preferred:
http://lists.debian.org/debian-boot/2008/02/msg00336.html

However, if you see alternative solutions, I'd be more than willing to 
discuss them and help develop/test them.

I removed the commented out dh_makeshlibs line in udebs section of 
debhelper.mk as I felt that to be better than adding a commented out call 
to the shlibs-add-udebs script.

I have only tested the patch on amd64 and i386, but AFAICT it should work 
for other arches too.

The udeb: lines are only added for libc6 and equivalent packages, and *not* 
for the crossarch packages (libc6-amd64, libc-i386, libc6-xen, etc.).
AFAICT udebs should not be compiled against those variants, so adding them 
there seemed redundant.
However, I'm not completely sure that is correct and I'd appreciate your 
opinion on this.

Please consider including this patch with your next upload.

Cheers,
FJP

 This is harmless. I don't know what the locale generation is doing that
 breaks the preloading, but it doesn't need to be run under fakeroot
 anyway.

As I say, I'm just using pbuilder (debuild), and that in its default 
configuration where it comes to what commands it uses to gain root during 
the build process:
#for pbuilder debuild
BUILDSOURCEROOTCMD=fakeroot
PBUILDERROOTCMD=sudo

If you (plural) don't feel this is an environment where building glibc 
should be possible without these errors, that's fine by me.
I just noticed the errors while investigating a possible change for the 
packaging of the udebs.

Thx for the quick replies.

People on #parisc say that this is a glibc issue:
patofiero fjp, I have not looked at the current sources in debian glibc, 
but in general there *are* functions which are supposed to be atomic but 
are not. These failures can cause a symidx out of rang of fptr table 
error.
patofiero fjp, The failure is in glibc.
patofiero fjp, It's using non-atomic implementation of compare and swap. 
However, the problem is systemic of a kernel that doesn't have atomic 
helper functions.
fjp I'm running 2.6.18-4-parisc64-smp
patofiero fjp, smp is more likely to trigger the error.

Bug#391529: #391529 Etch installer freezed by tzdata

2006-11-01 Thread Frans Pop
Ok, fine that you found it. However, in the meantime, I managed to
 setup a basic infrastructure to let me test the latest netinst image
 (http://cdimage.debian.org/cdimage/daily-builds/daily/20061008/i386/iso
-cd/debian-testing-i386-netinst.iso with md5sum
 f256549427efa2782f0253fc29553caf).

The problem won't show up with a daily image. You need a Beta 3 netinst or 
full CD image to reproduce this.

Reason is that daily and other images will already install the latest 
version of tzdata during debootstrap (base-installer) and so there won't 
be an upgrade during tasksel (pkgsel).

Also, current d-i images have a fix for this issue in that they
configure tzdata before pkgsel is run, thereby avoiding the question.
In beta 3 this happened only at the very end of the installation.

Cheers,

Aurelien Jarno traced this problem to tzdata asking a non-debconf question 
on upgrade. This happens because the package installed during base 
installation (from CD) is upgraded during pkgsel/tasksel (from the 
mirrors).

Note that a change has been committed in D-I component tzsetup (1:0.11) 
that may prevent this is the future: we now configure the timezone

This means it is probably only a temporary problem that will affect some

librt is currently not included in the libc6 udeb, but seems to be needed 
to create xfs filesystems. Please add it.

 Could the xfs udeb be statically linked to it? It's 30k that only one
 tool (which isn't there in lowmem) needs..

Yes, that is probably better. Reassigning to xfsprogs.

Nathan,

With your latest upload, mkfs.xfs seems to have gained a dependency on two 
libraries which it previously was not linked to:
$ ldd mkfs.xfs # from testing
libuuid.so.1 = /lib/libuuid.so.1 (0x40028000)
libc.so.6 = /lib/tls/i686/cmov/libc.so.6 (0x4002b000)
/lib/ld-linux.so.2 = /lib/ld-linux.so.2 (0x4000)
$ ldd mkfs.xfs # from unstable
libuuid.so.1 = /lib/libuuid.so.1 (0x40028000)
librt.so.1 = /lib/tls/i686/cmov/librt.so.1 (0x4002b000)
libc.so.6 = /lib/tls/i686/cmov/libc.so.6 (0x40033000)
libpthread.so.0 = /lib/tls/i686/cmov/libpthread.so.0 (0x40168000)
/lib/ld-linux.so.2 = /lib/ld-linux.so.2 (0x4000)

libpthread is available in the installer, but librt currently is not and 
we'd prefer not having to add it. Is it possible for you to link in librt 
statically for the udeb?

Note that if it is not, we will have to keep xfsprogs out of testing until 
the next release of the installer as otherwise it would break the 
upcoming Beta 3 release.

Thanks,
FJP

Bug#362460: glibc: typo in changelog may cause confision

2006-04-13 Thread Frans Pop
Package: glibc
Version: 2.3.6-6
Severity: minor

The changelog for this version contains:

  [ Aurelien Jarno ]
  * Remove the timezone database from the libc6 package. It is not provided
by a separate package called tzdata.

I suspect this should read It is no_w_ provided ... and suggest
to correct that with the next upload as this typo may lead to confusion.

Bug#355916: __alloc_pages: 0-order allocation failed (gfp=0x1d2/0)

2006-03-08 Thread Frans Pop
Package: locales
Version: 2.3.6-3
Severity: normal

During an upgrade of locales (S/390, together with quite a few other
packages) I noticed the following error:
Setting up locales (2.3.6-3) ...
Generating locales (this might take a while)...
  en_US.ISO-8859-1... done
  en_US.UTF-8.../usr/sbin/locale-gen: line 53:  3273 Killed
localedef -i $input -c -f $charset -A /usr/share/locale/locale.alias
$locale
 done
Generation complete.

On console I had the following lines from the upgrade:
INIT: version 2.86 reloading
__alloc_pages: 0-order allocation failed (gfp=0x1d2/0)
VM: killing process localedef

I did a dpkg-reconfigure after that and then the locales generation
finished without problems.

Not sure if this is a problem in locales, but I thought I'd better
report it anyway.

Bug#243237: Removing tag 'sid'

tags 243237 - sid

thanks

Removing tag 'sid' as I'm not sure the problem is limited to unstable; it 
might also affect Sarge.
