Bug#1060699: qt6-base-dev: Qt6ExampleIconsPrivateConfig.cmake relies on files missing from package

2024-01-12 Thread Stuart Prescott
Package: qt6-base-dev
Version: 6.6.1+dfsg-5
Severity: normal
X-Debbugs-Cc: stu...@debian.org

Dear Maintainer,

The two cmake files:
  
/usr/lib/x86_64-linux-gnu/cmake/Qt6ExampleIconsPrivate/Qt6ExampleIconsPrivateConfig.cmake
  
/usr/lib/x86_64-linux-gnu/cmake/Qt6ExampleIconsPrivate/Qt6ExampleIconsPrivateTargets.cmake
contain references to files that do not exist within any packages, the
result being that cmake errors out if trying to use them:

--- 8< --- 8< --- 8< --- 8< ---
CMake Error at 
/usr/lib/x86_64-linux-gnu/cmake/Qt6ExampleIconsPrivate/Qt6ExampleIconsPrivateTargets.cmake:116
 (message):
The imported target "Qt6::ExampleIconsPrivate_resources_1" references the
file

"/usr/lib/x86_64-linux-gnu/objects-None/ExampleIconsPrivate_resources_1/.rcc/qrc_example_icons.cpp.o"

but this file does not exist.  Possible reasons include:

* The file was deleted, renamed, or moved to another location.

* An install or uninstall procedure did not complete successfully.

* The installation package was faulty and contained

"/usr/lib/x86_64-linux-gnu/cmake/Qt6ExampleIconsPrivate/Qt6ExampleIconsPrivateTargets.cmake"

but not all the files it references.

Call Stack (most recent call first):
/usr/lib/x86_64-linux-gnu/cmake/Qt6ExampleIconsPrivate/Qt6ExampleIconsPrivateConfig.cmake:62

sources/pyside6/qtexampleicons/CMakeLists.txt:15 (find_package)

--- 8< --- 8< --- 8< --- 8< ---

(discovered while playing around with pyside6 6.6.1 as you can see from
that trace)

The files it is looking for are in unusual directories so I'm not sure if
there is more to it than just missing the files from the package. I noticed
that Gentoo has the same issue which also seems to be unresolved.

Bug#928315: qtchooser: qdbus does not find qt5 qdbus

2019-05-02 Thread Stuart Prescott
Control: tags -1 - unreproducible moreinfo
Control: severity -1 normal

Hi all

Some updates to questions (combined into one reply for simplicity):

> By default the qt4 version should be called except the user does something
> to force the situation like installing qt5-default or passing -qt5 
> as argument or setting the environment variable you discovered above. 

Ahh, now this rings a bell.

For some reason I cannot now recall (but was perhaps to do with changes in 
type marshalling?), I needed qdbus to call the qt5 version some years ago and 
created:

$ cat ~/.config/qtchooser/default.conf 
/usr/lib/x86_64-linux-gnu/qt5/bin
/usr/lib/x86_64-linux-gnu

which works just fine under stretch but not under buster.

Deleting the file makes everything work just fine. Replacing it with the 
following also works fine:

/usr/lib/qt5/bin
/usr/lib/x86_64-linux-gnu

So the cause of the problem was my config file and not a general problem 
(hence downgrading the severity). 

There are some smaller bugs instead: 

a) why does the old config file no longer work

b) when /usr/lib/x86_64-linux-gnu/qt5/bin is just a symlink farm to /usr/lib/
qt5/bin, why does one work and the other not?

c) how can that rather useless error message be improved. 

I have a feeling that (a) and (b) are linked and are probably packaging bugs.

qt4-default is not installed

qt5-default is installed:

Bug#928315: qtchooser: qdbus does not find qt5 qdbus

2019-05-01 Thread Stuart Prescott
Package: qtchooser
Version: 66-1
Severity: serious
Justification: Policy 9.9 Programs installed on PATH must not depend on 
environment to get reasonable defaults

Dear Maintainer,

On two systems I have running buster, I get the following:

$ qdbus
qdbus: could not exec '/usr/lib/x86_64-linux-gnu/qt5/bin/qdbus' since it links 
to qdbus itself. Check your installation.
$ QT_SELECT=5 qdbus
[... lots of output ...]

$ apt list qdbus qdbus-qt5 qtchooser
qdbus-qt5/testing,now 5.11.3-4 amd64 [installed]
qdbus/testing,now 4:4.8.7+dfsg-18 amd64 [installed,automatic]
qtchooser/testing,now 66-1 amd64 [installed,automatic]

Getting reasonable behaviour out of qdbus should not require setting
environment variables, as per policy 9.9.

regards
Stuart

I don't think it's kmail that is stripping this (it works just fine for me 
in stretch), but rather a setting for how to determine in what application 
the URL should be opened. 

What do you have in 

K → System settings → Applications → Default Applications → Web Browser

I suspect that you have that set to "in an application based on the contents 
of the URL". That setting has kmail (or rather underlying libraries) fetch 
the resource (or at least the HEAD) and then picks your browser for HTML, 
okular for a PDF, gwenview for a JPG etc.

The sequence is (roughly):

* kmail asks www server for resource or metadata about the resource (I 
assume it's a HEAD request, I've not checked)

* in doing this look-up, various http redirects are followed

* when kmail's libraries look at your helpdesk URL you are not authenticated 
(even though you might be in your browser)

* the helpdesk server helpfully redirects you to a login form

* the login form is HTML

* HTML is for a www browser so your browser is opened pointing to the 
current URL which is a login form

(I can replicate what you see with password protected resources where no 
query string is involved, just a redirect to a login form)

Changing the aforementioned setting to "in the following browser" may be 
sufficient.

cheers
Stuart

that sounds even more like the kernel is too old as I suggested earlier.

What does "uname -r" say?

This last line of your output indicates a minimum kernel version for the 
library. 

We've recently seen examples of people trying to run Qt applications in 
chroots / containers on top of really old kernels and it fails in exactly 
this rather confusing way. Could this be the case here?

This is precisely what sid is for and why there is a migration to testing 
after a few days once buildds, uploaders have caught up and packages are 
tested together. If you don't want to face installability problems, you 
should use the testing release. You'll cope with packages that are a whole 5 
days older. Further, you shouldn't be using full-upgrade blindly. When you 
do so, you are explicitly permitting apt to remove packages to optimise on 
upgrading over retaining packages; you shouldn't be surprised when it does 
what you ask it to do.

I'll also add that English is a rich language with many words that don't 
involve so much ranting and swearing. Please learn to use some of them and 
show some respect for your audience and for the volunteers who are making 
Debian for you.

Bug#869116: kcharselect segfaults

2017-09-03 Thread Stuart Prescott
Hi Guillaume,

I was seeing similar crashes to you in kcharselect. Removing the package 
at-spi2-core and ensuring that its processes at-spi2-registryd and 
at-spi-bus-launcher were not still running was enough to prevent 
these crashes. 

Does that work for you?

Bug#858905: kde-telepathy-text-ui: Fails to show text entry widget

2017-03-28 Thread Stuart Prescott
Package: kde-telepathy-text-ui
Version: 15.08.3-1+b2
Severity: serious
Justification: breaks entire package

Dear Maintainer,

The text-ui package is supposed to present a textbox in which the user can
type to be able to chat on IM. At present, the text box is not displayed
(instead and empty window with nothing below the toolbar is shown). Any
attempt to use functions within that window results in either nothing
happening or the application crashing.

This looks rather similar to

Re: kmail/akonadi_imap_resource crashes

2016-02-15 Thread Stuart Prescott

Hi Stefan,

I see this often enough too (in jessie) -- I have tried and failed to work 
out why.

One thing that does help is to clear the akonadi cache(s) for that resource 
-- it then stops crashing every few minutes and you can go back to having a 
usable kmail for a week or so before it starts crashing again.

Run akonadiconsole
  → "Browser" tab
→ "Collection" tree
  → select folder in relevant IMAP resource
→ right click, "Clear Akonadi Cache"
  → repeat for other folders (I think)

That it is always the same akonadi_imap_resource that crashes (it's only 
ever one of the 3 that I have) and that the problem comes back probably 
means it is one specific email that is the issue. I have no idea which one 
or how one would go about working out which one other than some sort of 
binary search of deleting emails and waiting a couple of weeks for crashes.

cheers
Stuart

Bug#769155: kde-workspace-bin: laptop does not go to sleep when critical battery level is reached

2015-03-07 Thread Stuart Prescott

Hi Andreas,

> I CAN reproduce it with a fresh install and others can reproduce it as well.
> Just in this bug report you find 3 people with the same issue. On the
> provided link you find even more.

Unfortunately, old data isn't useful -- yes, I did read the entire bug report 
and the links therein. We don't have a simple reproduce case and all of the 
related packages have been updated since the report was filed (various kde bits 
and, more importantly, the kernel). Can you reproduce the problem right now 
with an up to date jessie?

No-one is saying that we don't want this to be fixed in jessie, but if we can't 
reproduce it and it doesn't affect everyone, then it shouldn't hold up the 
release of jessie.

Bug#760751: [okular] Okular shows "[Please insert PrerenderUnicode{??} into preamble]" in the title bar, when the title of the document contains an umlaut

This is a problem with the specific PDF that you have linked to and not with 
okular. What you see in the title bar there is quite literally what is set 
as the title for that PDF in the document metadata:

$ pdfinfo einf_dab.pdf 
[...]
Keywords:   Datenbanken, Einf[Please insert PrerenderUnicode{ü} into 
preamble]hrung, Motivation

The producer of this pdf (pdfeTeX-1.21a by the looks of it) needs to be 
configured to correctly handle non-ASCII characters in the PDF metadata. If 
you had the latex source available, you'd be able to fix this by 
regenerating the PDF... The solution is to either tell pdflatex that the 
input file is encoded in UTF-8 (for example \usepackage[utf8]{inputenc}) or 
to help pdflatex understand how to deal with this character (add 
\PrerenderUnicode{ü} to the preamble.)

cheers
Stuart

Bug#587527: make kgpg not dependent on mysql-server-core-5.1

2013-05-01 Thread Stuart Prescott

$ aptitude why kgpg mysql-server-core
i   kgpg  Depends kdepim-runtime
 
i A kdepim-runtimeDepends akonadi-server (>= 1.3)   
 
i A akonadi-serverDepends akonadi-backend-mysql (= 1.7.2-3) 
| akonadi-backend-sqlite (= 1.7.2-3) 
| akonadi-backend-postgresql (= 
1.7.2-3)   
i A akonadi-backend-mysql Depends mysql-server-core-5.5 | mysql-server-core 
 

I don't know how supported these other akonadi backends are, but that at 
leasts answers the original question of "can I use postgres instead of mysql" 
for wheezy (on squeeze, there were no alternatives for akonadi backends).
Perhaps closing this bug with a version that shows it fixed in wheezy would be 
appropriate.

Bug#693260: kmail hangs while typing mails

2012-11-14 Thread Stuart Prescott
Hi Rainer,

Forcing nepomuk to quit

qdbus org.kde.NepomukServer /nepomukserver quit

and then restarting it

nepomukserver --silent

may be all that is required for you to get a working kmail. qdbus is in the 
"qdbus" package if you don't already have it installed. Issuing that quit 
message doesn't actually make nepomukserver and nepomukcontroller exit.
(Logging out/rebooting etc should also solve this if less gracefully and at 
the risk of losing the draft email.)

You can also double check the "job tracking" feature of akonadiconsole where 
you will presumably see ContactSearchJob queries taking ages to return and 
the UI is unresponsive while these queries are running -- I don't know the 
technical details of what is failing in amongst nepomuk and akonadi here, 
but restarting nepomuk as described will make these queries return 
instantly.

cheers
Stuart

Bug#679917: korganizer: cannot add ics calendar files

2012-11-12 Thread Stuart Prescott
-BEGIN PGP SIGNED MESSAGE-
Hash: SHA1

Hi!

While adding calendar resources through the korganiser interface doesn't 
work in wheezy, you can happily add them via System settings → KDE resources 
→ Calendar → Manage → Add → ical file.

That being the case, I suspect we could downgrade this bug as the fix for it 
is probably just to hide the non-working part of the user interface anyway.

regards
Stuart

Bug#549564: okular package could provide "postscript-viewer"

2009-10-04 Thread Stuart Prescott
Package: okular
Severity: wishlist

Hi!

The package description for okular indicates that the package provides a
postscript viewer. It would be nice if the package could include a Provides
header to this effect (Provides: postscript-viewer) so that okular satisfies
the dependency for packages that depend/recommend postscript-viewer. Doing so
would save packages like gv or evince being dragged in to satisfy such a
dependency when okular already suffices. Doing so also makes it easier for
maintainers to indicate that a postscript viewer would be useful for their
package without having to enumerate every single postscript viewer in the
archive.

A list of current users of postscript-viewer can be seen by running:

  apt-cache showpkg postscript-viewer

thanks,
Stuart

Bug#263430: kaddprinterwizard stomps on cupsys defaults

2005-01-06 Thread Stuart Prescott
Hi Christopher,

> patched it, but I didn't notice the lpadmin --> sys change (and _really_ 
> should have, given the age of this bug report). Are these the only two

Ummm as kaddprinterwizard was pretty much destroying my
configuration with those two changes, I just copied my previous file
back over it and stuck to the www interface, so I haven't really tested
it out.

I would actually suggest that upstream needs to completely rethink the
approach in kaddprinterwizard and the way it rewrites the config file
*entirely* rather than just applying small diffs to the file when
something changes. (OK, this is a more general un*x/linux problem about
how you can make a nice GUI to manage a potentially hand-crafted and
human-readable text file that is being used for the config.)

Perhaps also if the cupsys packages relied less on compiled-in defaults
and more on the config file then there would be less cause for confusion
with kaddprinterwizard? It's a bit of a tough one that I don't have the
packaging experience to even start contemplating.

thanks, all!

Cheers,
Stuart




Bug#263430: kaddprinterwizard stomps on cupsys defaults

2005-01-05 Thread Stuart Prescott
Hi all!

I can confirm that with the latest kdelibs-bin from sarge (4:3.3.1-4 0)
that the group of /etc/cups/cupsd.conf is changed from lpadmin to sys
upon changing anything in the print-server dialogue box with
kaddprinterwizard.

Additionally, kaddprinterwizard changes the DocumentRoot of the www
interface to CUPS from the compiled-in default
(/usr/share/cups/doc-root) to /usr/share/cups/doc,, breaking all the
online help and all the images in the www admin interface (making it
very hard to work out what is going on).

Note that if the value of DocRoot is already set within the CUPS config
file then the value is respected, it is just that the debian compilation
of CUPS has a different set of default values for these variables than
kaddprinterwizard.


The result is that one has to make a decision to either *only* use
kaddprinterwizard or *only* use the web interface to CUPS. At the least
this should be *very* clearly enunciated to the user, but preferably
they should play nicely with each other.

thanks!
Stuart
