[Touch-packages] [Bug 1486061] Re: Long descriptions missing from apt cache - affects software-center etc

2015-09-28 Thread Kiwinote

I've had a look into this and it seems that if I take the latest version
of apt in wily and apply the changes as set out in
https://github.com/Debian/apt/commit/8965b2f8e6738463c20f69e76ba888a8d77225e3
then I consistently get all descriptions showing both in English and
other languages. I don't know the apt codebase, nor do I know c++, so
this should be looked over by someone with a bit more knowledge.

Title:
  Long descriptions missing from apt cache - affects software-center etc

Status in apt package in Ubuntu:
  Confirmed

Bug description:
  apt 1.0.9.10ubuntu6 and 1.0.9.10ubuntu7 - ubuntu wily

  It appears that on wily the long package descriptions are missing from
  the apt-cache. As a result of this bug full package descriptions are
  missing (amongst others) in software-center, update-manager, synaptic
  etc.

  The files like /var/lib/apt/lists/archive.ubuntu
  .com_ubuntu_dists_wily_universe_i18n_Translation-en do exist with a
  recent timestamp, so it looks the downloading of the translations has
  taken place.

  Using the python bindings cache['gimp'].candidate.description returns
  an empty string.

  Apt-cache also seems to be missing the 'Description-en' key:

[Touch-packages] [Bug 1396553] Re: No rating and 0 reviews shown for all applications in the dash

2015-09-25 Thread Kiwinote

This has been broken for quite a while - there are two parts to this:

--> UNITY_LENS_APPLICATIONS
Unity-lens-applications reads a Berkeley DB file which is generated by 
software-center. The filename contains the version number of libdb. In February 
2012 the transition [0] to libdb5.1 was done, in November 2013 there was a 
transition [1] to libdb5.3, but the filename was not updated, which means that 
since then the source code of unity-lens-applications had had a wrong filename 
in line 42 of src/unity-ratings-db.c [2].

[0] 
http://bazaar.launchpad.net/~unity-team/unity-lens-applications/trunk/revision/17.1.166
[1] 
http://bazaar.launchpad.net/~unity-team/unity-lens-applications/trunk/revision/375
[2] 
http://bazaar.launchpad.net/~unity-team/unity-lens-applications/trunk/view/head:/src/unity-ratings-db.c

--> SOFTWARE_CENTER
Upon launching software-center, software-center generates a file for 
unity-lens-applications to read. For at least a year, if not multiple years, 
software-center crashes whilst trying to generate this db. The crash occurs in 
line 336 of [3] with "DBInvalidArgError: (22, 'Invalid argument -- BDB0054 
illegal flag combination specified to DB_ENV->open')". Experimentation seems to 
show that removing the "|bdb.DB_NOMMAP" stops this crash. The NOMMAP flag was 
introduced in [4], but I don't know enough about the Berkeley DB format to know 
why the NOMMAP flag should or shouldn't be in use. The internet seems to 
describe the flag as "Always copy read-only database files in this environment 
into the local cache instead of potentially mapping them into process memory". 
I couldn't pull up any other illegal flag combinations using NOMMAP errors 
besides software-center.

[4] 
http://bazaar.launchpad.net/~ubuntuone-control-tower/software-center/trunk/revision/2434

After installing a modified version of unity-lens-applications and
changing software-center and launching software-center I needed to kill
the unity-scope-loader process after which the ratings reappeared in the
dash (obviously only for apps which have ratings, which are not the
newest ones).

Another issue affecting the applications lens is the missing
applications descriptions due to bug #1486061
