[Bug 1463553] [NEW] accept() system call is inconsistent with bind(), connect()
Public bug reported: Under kernel 3.2.0-54 and 3.9.3 (at least), the accept() system call in a PF_LOCAL, AF_LOCAL, SOCK_STREAM context returns an addrlen for the sockaddr_un structure that is too large by one. As the SUN_LEN macro of the sys/un.h header shows, the length of the structure is expected to be the strlen() of the sun_path member, plus that member's offset. This is the length used by bind() and connect(), in particular. But accept() consistently returns a length which includes the trailing null, and is thus too large by one.

[Bug 1458554] [NEW] watershed description may be erroneous
Public bug reported: The watershed package's description currently reads: watershed may be run around a command such that any further attempts to run the command while another copy is running will only result in one initial further attempt. It is hard to tell what watershed is actually trying to do (there is no README in the package, and the code itself dives right into technicalities without establishing context or intent), but I suspect it is not what the description is stating. I assume that watershed's intent is to prevent more than one instance of a command from running at any given time. What the description states is that multiple watershed- wrapped command instances will result in *two* running instances: the first running copy, and the one initial further attempt. Either way, this needs clarification. ** Affects: watershed (Ubuntu) Importance: Undecided Status: New -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1458554 Title: watershed description may be erroneous To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/watershed/+bug/1458554/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs

Rolf Leggewie seems to be in the same camp as Theodore Ts'o, author of the infamous resize2fs man pages. Where Theodore also finds the IEC/IEEE terminology ridiculous, he at least spells out what units resize2fs does use. Not so with system-config-lvm and its command-line counterparts (lvreduce and others). Getting the file system and logical volume extents wrong because the units are poorly explained in the man pages or the GUI can cause entire partitions to be lost. That's not ridiculous, it's tragic.

[Bug 1172711] Re: checkinstall includes ./proc/self/coredump_filter in deb package
In order for the compilation to succeed, a few prerequisites exist. On my 64-bit Ubuntu 12.04 virtual system (3.2.0-40-virtual), the packages I needed were: automake, libtool, openjdk-7-jdk A later attachment is the deb package (prepared by checkconfig) on which the attached tarball is dependent. Once that deb is installed, deploy the attached tarball, and then do, in its directory: ./bootstrap bootstrap.log ./configure --with-java-jdk=/usr/lib/jvm/jdk --with-jni-interface configure.log make make.log sudo checkinstall make install Where /usr/lib/jvm/jdk is the path of your JDK (e.g. /usr/lib/jvm/java-7 -openjdk-amd64) You should get a log similar to this when the install fails (I named the package lttng-ust-java): Selecting previously unselected package lttng-ust-java.

[Bug 1090407] [NEW] Unity launcher misbehaving, reset fails badly
Public bug reported: For some unfathomable reason, my Unity launcher has become unusable: it still occupies the left edge of the screen, but only a sliver of some unknown icon shows at the top, and the mouse is confused as to what's lying in the apparently blank area.

[Bug 952636] Re: No GUI-based group management feature beginning 12.04.
It's really a sad state of affairs that this bug reveals. The Linux community seems to be disintegrating, each clan blaming the others for whatever. Ubuntu looked like a viable alternative to the big guys, but with flat-out failures like this one, it's beginning to look doomed. Forget clannishness: customers want a comprehensive, working, graphical solution. Period. Bug management is another issue: how come GNOME bugs aren't just another department of this bugzilla?

[Bug 1043356] [NEW] Synaptic won't offer to install unauthenticated packages
Public bug reported: Unlike with the command line, where 'apt-get install somepackage' can yield: WARNING: The following packages cannot be authenticated! somepackage Install these packages without verification [y/N]? y Synaptic does not offer to install the unauthenticated package. In the particular case of this filing, the issue seems to have been a refresh one, because running 'apt-get update' meant a retry of 'apt-get install linux-libc-dev' finally worked. The first attempts to install the updated Linux headers (reported by Update manager) yielded an unauthenticated sources error message. With no further details. Trying the command line revealed that apt was trying to get linux-libc- dev_3.2.0-24.37_amd64.deb, whereas the repository only holds 3.2.0-23.36, 29.46 and 30.48. Another issue I have is that the error message reads: E: Unable to fetch some archives, try running apt-get update or apt-get --fix-missing. 'apt-get update' works, but 'apt-get --fix-missing' is an abject failure. The message should be: E: Unable to fetch some archives, try running apt-get update or apt-get install --fix-missing packagename. Interestingly, running 'apt-get install --fix-missing linux-libc-dev' (before 'apt-get update') yielded this: WARNING: The following packages cannot be authenticated! linux-libc-dev Install these packages without verification [y/N]? y Err http://us.archive.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/ precise-updates/main linux-libc-dev amd64 3.2.0-24.37 404 Not Found Failed to fetch http://us.archive.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/pool/main/l/linux/linux-libc-dev_3.2.0-24.37_amd64.deb 404 Not Found E: Internal Error, ordering was unable to handle the media swap ProblemType: Bug DistroRelease: Ubuntu 12.04 Package: synaptic 0.75.9ubuntu1 ProcVersionSignature: Ubuntu 3.2.0-23.36-generic 3.2.14 Uname: Linux 3.2.0-23-generic x86_64 ApportVersion: 2.0.1-0ubuntu7 Architecture: amd64 CurrentDmesg.txt: [ 132.898188] init: plymouth-stop pre-start process (2011) terminated with status 1 [ 831.708467] hrtimer: interrupt took 4405905 ns Date: Wed Aug 29 09:46:18 2012 InstallationMedia: Ubuntu 12.04 LTS Precise Pangolin - Release amd64 (20120425) SourcePackage: synaptic UpgradeStatus: No upgrade log present (probably fresh install) ** Affects: synaptic (Ubuntu) Importance: Undecided Status: New ** Tags: amd64 apport-bug precise -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1043356 Title: Synaptic won't offer to install unauthenticated packages To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/synaptic/+bug/1043356/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs

[Bug 750435] [NEW] Remote file time stamps not updated during copy-paste
Public bug reported: Binary package hint: nautilus (Possibly a Samba bug rather than a Nautilus one) When copying a file from a window opened on a remote share (using Samba) and then pasting into some other (local) location, if the file already exists the usual Cancel/Skip/Replace dialog pops up, but the timestamps reported by the dialog are not updated unless the window (to the remote share) is locally refreshed beforehand, leading the user to possibly Skip when he should Replace (when conducting an update, for example). If the file is Replaced, the timestamps are updated once the copy is completed, so at least there are no further consequences for this bug. To demonstrate, copy a file from a remote location to a local one. In the remote location, edit the file to make some trivial changes and save it. Obtain its properties and note the last modification timestamp. Back in the local location, *without refreshing the window*, obtain the file's properties. Note how the last modification timestamp has not been updated. Copy the file again and paste it again in the same local location. Note how the Cancel/Skip/Replace dialog reports identical timestamps. This caching effect can also cause Error while copying: No such file or directory if the remote file has been renamed, moved or deleted since the window to the remote share was last refreshed. Also, any application or daemon that watches the remote directory for changes will likely fail to detect them. ** Affects: nautilus (Ubuntu) Importance: Undecided Status: New -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/750435 Title: Remote file time stamps not updated during copy-paste -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs

Surprise: None of the files had their execute bit set.

Clearly the original text suffers from a copy-paste mistake (wouldn't be the first time a standard suffers from dumb errors like this). The 'knot' is *not* a unit of distance; it is only in informal usage (See for instance http://www.unc.edu/~rowlett/units/dictK.html) that the nautical mile is made a synonym to 'knot' (really a knot-hour): no normative document will ever make such a mistake purposefully. At the very least, a note-to-translators should be added explaining this problem and recommending that the translation work from 'nautical mile' instead of 'knot', particularly since the informal confusion of speed and distance units is not going to be present in most target languages (the French, for instance, never use 'nœud' to mean a distance). -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/712115 Title: Text of libexif Template “libexif-12” is incorrect -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs

Dictionaries are not normative, particularly not modern ones: they just report on observed usage. I was referring to standard-setting documents such as those put out by ISO, IEEE, ANSI, and so on.

[Bug 177929] Re: We need file encoding select function for zip files
I was sure I had seen someone explaining the problem as arising from xarchiver, but I seem to have been mistaken. I now understand (I'm new to this bugs.launchpad) that this bug had been assigned to multiple applications (file-roller and xarchiver). In that sense, xarchiver is possibly blameless (I'm no expert on this), the problem lying only with file-roller. I apologise for my premature over-reaction. As long as we're all agreed that the lack of Unicode filename support from file-roller is a problem... -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/177929 Title: We need file encoding select function for zip files -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
[Bug 177929] Re: We need file encoding select function for zip files
Charlie is mincing words to get around the problem of facing the issue. The bug is valid, because xarchiver is NOT unzipping the contents of the archive: it is copying its contents to seemingly randomly-named other files. The original zipped files are NOT recovered: you get other-named files with the same content. This is untenable when unzipping a hierarchy of files and folders, or just multiple files: how is the user going to match the weird output with his expectation? He can't. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/177929 Title: We need file encoding select function for zip files -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs

[Bug 177929] Re: We needs file encoding select function.
I can confirm the problem in a French environment : the accented characters are not dealt with correctly by file-roller (they become question marks). I'm aware that the problem lies with the zip format itself; invoking unzip directly from the command line does extract the badly named files, albeit with an (invalid encoding) comment appended to the name ---at least this way I can rename the offending files manually. The problem lies in that file-roller issues a warning about the filename not matched but then does not provide a workaround. It should at the very least propose to decompress the files using some simple substitution scheme (keeping the question marks, replacing them with underscores, anything!) or maybe prompt the user to rename each offending file on the fly. Bottom line: file-roller should decompress SOMETHING. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/177929 Title: We needs file encoding select function. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs

[Bug 521492] Re: Dual Monitor wallpaper is not scaling across both monitors, same background is repeated on both monitors instead
My display configuration(virtual desktop) consists of two monitors. From left to right: * 1600x1200, rotated left (hence 1200x1600 really) (secondary monitor) * 1920x1200 (main monitor) The virtual desktop thus measures 3120x1600 (with a dent taken out of it in the lower right hand corner). The wallpaper used for these tests measures 2560x1600 px. The Help is not synchronised with the UI; it describes Centered/Fill Screen/Scaled/Zoom/Tiled but the Appearance: Preferences: Background Style drop-down lists Tile/Zoom/Center/Scale/Stretch/Span. Note how Span is missing and how Stretch = Fill Screen. Tile: Instead of two images side-by-side (left full width, right ~one- fifth width), the tiling uses the central part of the image (1920x1200) and tiles that. Note how the main monitor's size was used instead of the whole desktop's. Zoom: Does not zoom to cover the entire virtual desktop, but instead zooms within each display separately. Center: Does not center with respect to the entire virtual desktop, but instead centers within each display separately. Scale: Does not scale with respect to the entire virtual desktop, but instead scales within each display separately. Stretch: Does not stretch over the entire virtual desktop, but instead stretches within each display separately. Span: Not specified, but the expectation is an aspect-ratio-preserving scaling that covers the entire virtual desktop. In actuality, it only stretches until the vertical size is achieved (1600 px here), leaving two ugly bands on either side. -- Dual Monitor wallpaper is not scaling across both monitors, same background is repeated on both monitors instead https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/521492 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
[Bug 654742] Re: Gross mistake about palindromic years
Usually implies more than 50% of the time, which is incorrect. Palindromic years do NOT occur at 11 year intervals at the end of each millennium. They only do so during the first century of the calendar. (In rewriting this answer, it finally dawned on me what this was trying to say...Poorly expressed, in my opinion) A correct sentence would be: From year 1.001 to year 9.999, palindrome years occur at 110 year intervals, with a single 11 year interval at each millennium turnover.

Public bug reported: Binary package hint: gbrainy games.xml.h includes the answer: Palindrome years occur usually at 110 year intervals except for the end of each millennium that occur at a 11 years interval. This is grossly false. Palindromic years occur at 11 year intervals at the *beginning* of the calendar (11, 22, 33...99), then at 10 year intervals (101, 111, 121...191, 202...292...909...999), then at 110 year intervals for the next nine millennia (1001, , 1221...), then at 100 year intervals (10001, 10101, 10201... interleaved with 11011, 1, 11211..., etc.) for the next ninety millennia.
