Bug#901148: timidity: upgrading to 2.14.0-2 broke sound in KDE plasma

2018-06-09 Thread Arthur Marsh
Package: timidity
Version: 2.14.0-2
Severity: normal

Dear Maintainer,

*** Reporter, please consider answering these questions, where appropriate ***

   * What led up to the situation?

I upgraded to 2.14.0-2, shut down and rebooted to load a new kernel,
sound working outside KDE but not inside KDE, reverted to earlier kernel,
problem persisted, downgraded to timidity 2.13.2-41+b1 and rebooted, 
sound was again working in KDE although some sound settings had sound muted
on left channel.

   * What exactly did you do (or not do) that was effective (or
 ineffective)?
   * What was the outcome of this action?
   * What outcome did you expect instead?

Maybe I misundertood something how it works internally.
But it has the effect that I desired, i.e. preserving changes after
the conffile is moved to the other package.

Without the last column:

$ dpkg -i timidity_2.13.2-41+b1_amd64.deb timidity-daemon_2.13.2-41_all.deb
...
$ echo "# some change" >> /etc/default/timidity

No, that's not what $PACKAGE in dpkg-maintscript-helper is used for.
You can't "mark" a conffile as belonging to another package this way.

Because the conffile removed from package A could be installed  / taken
over by package B. As far as I understood it, it can be marked in this
way to belong to package B. If it would just remove the file from A,
the user's modifications would be lost.
And testing upgrades with (un)modified files suggests that it works like
this.

Why would the timidity package remove a conffile that belongs to another
package? That doesn't make sense to me.

thank you for the report.
The problem was that during arch:all-only builds, the manpages
were also installed (in the wrong package).
It is fixed in git:

2018-06-09 Thread Reiner Herrmann
Hi Sven and Michael,

thank you for the report and sorry for breaking it.

I'm not removing it from timidity-daemon, but from timidity
(timidity.maintscript). In the last column I'm marking timidity-daemon
as the owner of the file.
In my tests this also worked well, an unmodified file was just moved
to the timidity-daemon package, and a modified default file would also
stay intact (i.e., your changes are preserved after upgrade).
Without the last column the (modified) default file was removed during
upgrade and a fresh file was installed by timidity-daemon (your
modifications were lost).

I'm now just a bit puzzled why it didn't work in the same way for
the init.d file. Maybe because the other package (timidity-daemon) was
already the owner before (in the old version).

The conffiles also need to be cleaned up via a maintscript, because users
might not have the timidity-daemon package installed.

I think the init.d file should now be handled like this:
(Though this will lose changes made to the file before it was moved to the
other package (2.13.2-27, long before old-old-stable))

-rm_conffile/etc/init.d/timidity 2.14.0-2~timidity-daemon
+rm_conffile/etc/init.d/timidity 2.14.0-3~

The changes in

specifically

timidity.maintscript
rm_conffile/etc/default/timidity2.14.0-1~timidity-daemon

doesn't look correct either.
dpkg-maintscript-helper does not have support for moving conffiles from
one package to another (and why would you remove the conffile from
timidity-daemon, the package you moved the conffile into?)
Afaik, the best you can do is to have a versioned Breaks/Replaces
against the package which previously shipped the conffile.

Because moving conffiles is so badly supported, it should be avoided
whenever possible.

Bug#901129: timidity: removes conffile belonging to timidity-daemon

2018-06-09 Thread Sven Joachim
Package: timidity
Version: 2.14.0-2
Severity: serious

When upgrading timidity and timidity-daemon from 2.13.2-41 the following
happened (sorry for the German):

And since I was not smart enough to type "Y" at the dpkg prompt I was
left with /etc/init.d/timidity.dpkg-dist which had to be renamed to
timidity again.  Hopefully this was enough to untangle the mess, but
getting asked about a conffile which I (TTBOMK) did not change looks
unacceptable to me in any case.
