[Desktop-packages] [Bug 1101836] Re: Needs to keep hands off when removed but not purged
Laney, SRU info added to description. Well, when you looked at the im-config MP yesterday, no code for removing 80im-switch was there actually. (Code for removing 80im- config_launch was there, though.) Today is another thing. ;-) Since I try to minimize the differences to Debian, I now propose that the 0.21 version of debian/postinst is merged. Even if that file does contain code for removing 80im-switch, the latter won't be removed here since the md5sum for 80im-switch on Ubuntu is not listed. So, with the extra condition I added in revision 26 in my branch, it should be ok, and everyone should be happy. :) ** Description changed: - In raring, we are replacing im-switch with im-config, but when im-switch - isn't purged but only removed, scripts in /etc/X11/Xsession.d/ will - still try to set related variables, so that im-config cannot work - correctly. + Nomination of im-switch for Precise and Quantal SRUs + + + [Impact] + In raring, we are replacing im-switch with im-config, but when im-switch isn't purged but only removed, scripts in /etc/X11/Xsession.d/ will still try to set related variables, so that im-config cannot work correctly. + + [Test Case] + Steps to reproduce: + * Make sure you have an updated Precise or Quantal. + * Select ibus from Language Support. + * Remove im-switch without purging. + * Log out and log in again. + * Run env | grep IM from a terminal window and find that im related + environment variables were set when they shouldn't. + + [Regression Potential] + None. + + Remaining from original description + === Fixing im-switch in Precise and Quantal is part of the solution to this problem, something else must be done for those who haven't got the chance to upgrade to the fixed version. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Desktop Packages, which is subscribed to im-switch in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1101836 Title: Needs to keep hands off when removed but not purged Status in “im-config” package in Ubuntu: In Progress Status in “im-switch” package in Ubuntu: In Progress Status in “im-config” source package in Precise: Invalid Status in “im-switch” source package in Precise: Fix Committed Status in “im-config” source package in Quantal: Invalid Status in “im-switch” source package in Quantal: Fix Committed Status in “im-config” source package in Raring: In Progress Status in “im-switch” source package in Raring: In Progress Status in “im-config” package in Debian: New Status in “im-switch” package in Debian: Fix Released Bug description: Nomination of im-switch for Precise and Quantal SRUs [Impact] In raring, we are replacing im-switch with im-config, but when im-switch isn't purged but only removed, scripts in /etc/X11/Xsession.d/ will still try to set related variables, so that im-config cannot work correctly.

One reason I didn't (so far) was out of respect for possible Debian and Ubuntu policies. But that's probably faulty logic - I guess that adding the disable line doesn't violate any policies more than deleting a file in another package. Maybe less. I'm also disinclined to differ from the Debian version more than necessary, so I'd prefer a consensus before proposing that change. Hopefully we'll end up with an im-config package that is identical with the Debian one - it's a 3.0 (native) package. On that topic version 0.20 has been released at Debian. Yes - all of these problems exist on Debian too, although they way they might be addressed there could be different I suppose. The basic issues are the same though. A while ago Osamu mentioned an idea to apply patches conditionally... As regards updating im-switch... Added an im-switch task as a reminder. OTOH, I know that Aron and Osamu consider im-switch to be 'dead' and a candidate for archive removal. In the light of that, is it really worth it to spend time with SRUing that change? I think so - it should just be a simple change to the config file (and my offer to sponsor still stands), so not a very difficult change to SRU. It may be dead (and should therefore be removed from Raring after switching Kubuntu over), but we do have it in stable releases still. IMO the fix to im-config should be considered as a fallback if the user didn't fully update before moving to raring.

[Desktop-packages] [Bug 1101836] Re: Needs to keep hands off when removed but not purged
Iain Lane (laney) wrote on the merge proposal page: I was kind of hoping you'd get rid of the deletion completely and just insert the line to disable if necessary when you detect it wasn't there. Couldn't we do that instead? The deletion is bad because it makes dpkg think that the user performed this action when actually he didn't. dpkg then won't reinstall this file for you. We should also be updating im-switch to insert this line in the normal way - this postinst change is only supposed to be a failsafe. Hi Laney, Personally I wouldn't mind to drop the md5sum check/deletion part. One reason I didn't (so far) was out of respect for possible Debian and Ubuntu policies. But that's probably faulty logic - I guess that adding the disable line doesn't violate any policies more than deleting a file in another package. Maybe less. I'm also disinclined to differ from the Debian version more than necessary, so I'd prefer a consensus before proposing that change. Hopefully we'll end up with an im-config package that is identical with the Debian one - it's a 3.0 (native) package. On that topic version 0.20 has been released at Debian. A while ago Osamu mentioned an idea to apply patches conditionally... As regards updating im-switch... Added an im-switch task as a reminder. OTOH, I know that Aron and Osamu consider im-switch to be 'dead' and a candidate for archive removal. In the light of that, is it really worth it to spend time with SRUing that change? Osamu and Aron, what do you think? ** Also affects: im-switch (Ubuntu) Importance: Undecided Status: New -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Desktop Packages, which is subscribed to im-switch in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1101836 Title: Needs to keep hands off when removed but not purged Status in “im-config” package in Ubuntu: Fix Released Status in “im-switch” package in Ubuntu: New Bug description: In raring, we are replacing im-switch with im-config, but when im- switch isn't purged but only removed, scripts in /etc/X11/Xsession.d/ will still try to set related variables, so that im-config cannot work correctly.

[Desktop-packages] [Bug 1101836] Re: Needs to keep hands off when removed but not purged
Well Aron, my belief is that we have such a solution through the debian/postinst file in im-config. To know if there is a remaining issue that needs to be addressed - and how to address it - we need to know the exact nature of that issue. * I think that 80im-switch is the only file that has to be removed, and that the other left-over im-switch files do not matter. Was the problem the user in question encountered caused by some other file(s) but 80im-switch? * I think that all officially released versions of 80im-switch are automatically removed by debian/postinst in im-config. Was there a non-modified copy of 80im-switch left on the user's system? Considering the problem described in bug 875435, unfortunately it's not unlikely that there are quite a few modified copies of 80im-switch out there. It should be noted that Osamu had to defend the code in debian/postinst in relation to Debian policies with respect to configuration files: http://bugs.debian.org/690212 It could be argued that /etc/X11/Xsession.d/80im-switch is not really a config file, and consequently that config file policies don't apply. Personally I think that's a reasonable standpoint in this case, and if so it could be motivated to drop the md5sum check. However, I suppose that such a change should not be Ubuntu specific, since 80im-switch is just as harmful on Debian after a transition to im-config. Osamu, would it be possible to drop the md5sum check in debian/postinst? @Sebastien: Subscribed you to this bug, since we had a similar discussion when you sponsored https://launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/im-config/0.19ubuntu1 ** Bug watch added: Debian Bug tracker #690212 http://bugs.debian.org/cgi-bin/bugreport.cgi?bug=690212 -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Desktop Packages, which is subscribed to im-switch in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1101836 Title: Needs to keep hands off when removed but not purged Status in “im-switch” package in Ubuntu: Incomplete Bug description: In raring, we are replacing im-switch with im-config, but when im- switch isn't purged but only removed, scripts in /etc/X11/Xsession.d/ will still try to set related variables, so that im-config cannot work correctly.

[Desktop-packages] [Bug 1101836] Re: Needs to keep hands off when removed but not purged
Hi Aron, The file that needs to be removed is 80im-switch, isn't it? debian/postinst in the im-config package contains code that normally removes 80im-switch. However, it's only removed if its md5sum matches one of the md5sums listed in debian/postinst. In https://launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/im- config/0.19ubuntu1 I added the md5sum for the modified file that the solution to bug 875435 resulted in. So as far as I know, this should work. The case when 80im-switch is not removed is if you have made your own modifications to the file. Could that possibly be the reason why you have encountered a problem? ** Changed in: im-switch (Ubuntu) Status: New = Incomplete -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Desktop Packages, which is subscribed to im-switch in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1101836 Title: Needs to keep hands off when removed but not purged Status in “im-switch” package in Ubuntu: Incomplete Bug description: In raring, we are replacing im-switch with im-config, but when im- switch isn't purged but only removed, scripts in /etc/X11/Xsession.d/ will still try to set related variables, so that im-config cannot work correctly.
