Title:
  Xsessions has_option code error with fix

Status in xorg package in Ubuntu:
  Expired

Bug description:
  Jammy Jellyfish 22.04.1 LTS and others. There have been numerous bug
  reports and failed fixes for this over several years and releases.

  There are a couple of problems in /etc/X11/Xsessions where it fails to
  handle options, causing bogus error messages and, doubtless, many
  errors.

  The first bug is that the entire options file, including comments, is
  read into a variable.

  Where the variable "OPTIONS" is assigned;

  Replacing "cat" with "grep" strips out comments and blank lines;

  $ diff Xsession Xsession.orig 
  65c65
  < grep -v "^\s*\#\|^\s*$" "$OPTIONFILE"
  ---
  > cat "$OPTIONFILE"

  The second problem is that checking for a non-existent directory
  inside a command substitution does not work.  It just appends garbage
  onto the output string.

  That is probably a bug in BASH, but I defer to your opinion there.

  The immediate work around is to create an empty directory so that the
  test does not fail.  Better still, force the creation of the directory
  and remove the test.

  
  eg. change this;

  OPTIONS="$(
if [ -r "$OPTIONFILE" ]; then
  cat "$OPTIONFILE"
fi
if [ -d /etc/X11/Xsession.options.d ]; then
  run-parts --list --regex '\.conf$' /etc/X11/Xsession.options.d | xargs -d 
'\n' cat
fi
  )"

  to this;

  OPTIONSDIR=/etc/X11/Xsession.options.d
  mkdir --parents ${OPTIONSDIR}
  OPTIONS="$(
if [ -r "$OPTIONFILE" ]; then
  grep -v "^\s*\#\|^\s*$" "$OPTIONFILE"
fi
run-parts --list --regex '\.conf$' /etc/X11/Xsession.options.d | xargs -d

[Touch-packages] [Bug 1995236] Re: Xsessions has_option code error with fix

2022-10-31 Thread Peter D.
And now OPTIONS has to be exported, 
and probably should be protected against being empty in the new file. So it 
becomes ${OPTIONS:-} and ${1:-}

What else have I missed?

[Touch-packages] [Bug 1995236] Re: Xsessions has_option code error with fix

2022-10-31 Thread Peter D.
Bother.  There is a third problem, a scope issue of some sort. 
The errors in ~/.xsession.error go away if "has_options" is moved from Xsession 
to its own file in Xsession.d

I don't see why sourceing it should make any difference, but it does.

$ cat /etc/X11/Xsession.d/00
has_option () {
  # Ensure that a later no-foo overrides an earlier foo
  if [ "$(echo "$OPTIONS" | grep -Eo "^(no-)?$1\>" | tail -n 1)" == "$1" ]; then
return 0
  else
return 1
  fi
}

Also I changed a "=" to "==", but that should be cosmetic.

Title:
  Xsessions has_option code error with fix

Status in xorg package in Ubuntu:
  New

Bug description:
  Jammy Jellyfish 22.04.1 LTS and others. There have been numerous bug
  reports and failed fixes for this over several years and releases.

  There are a couple of problems in /etc/X11/Xsessions where it fails to
  handle options, causing bogus error messages and, doubtless, many
  errors.

  The first bug is that the entire options file, including comments, is
  read into a variable.

  Where the variable "OPTIONS" is assigned;

  Replacing "cat" with "grep" strips out comments and blank lines;

  $ diff Xsession Xsession.orig 
  65c65
  < grep -v "^\s*\#\|^\s*$" "$OPTIONFILE"
  ---
  > cat "$OPTIONFILE"

  The second problem is that checking for a non-existent directory
  inside a command substitution does not work.  It just appends garbage
  onto the output string.

  That is probably a bug in BASH, but I defer to your opinion there.

  The immediate work around is to create an empty directory so that the
  test does not fail.  Better still, force the creation of the directory
  and remove the test.

  
  eg. change this;

  OPTIONS="$(
if [ -r "$OPTIONFILE" ]; then
  cat "$OPTIONFILE"
fi
if [ -d /etc/X11/Xsession.options.d ]; then
  run-parts --list --regex '\.conf$' /etc/X11/Xsession.options.d | xargs -d 
'\n' cat
fi
  )"

  to this;

  OPTIONSDIR=/etc/X11/Xsession.options.d
  mkdir --parents ${OPTIONSDIR}
  OPTIONS="$(
if [ -r "$OPTIONFILE" ]; then
  grep -v "^\s*\#\|^\s*$" "$OPTIONFILE"
fi
run-parts --list --regex '\.conf$' /etc/X11/Xsession.options.d | xargs -d 
'\n' cat
  )"
