this is fix commited? I tried, and installed the update, and gksu only

Thanks Ted for the verification.

I set this to Fix Commited because the updated libgksu2-0 is now part
of hardy-proposed and should soon make it to hardy-updates (default is 7
days until it can enter hardy-updates).

and tell me if it fixes the issue?

It would be great if this problem could be fixed soon, because it now

update it through the update manager, I cannot install new applications
with Add/Remove, Synaptic doesn't even appear unless I use gksudo...

[Bug 91151] Re: gksu doesn't always pop up a dialog

2007-10-27 Thread Tobias McNulty
This happened to me because I had enabled an alternative authentication
mechanism in PAM (fingerprint reader).  As soon as I disabled that, gksu
started working again.  The lines in /etc/pam.d/common-auth look(ed)
like this:

auth   sufficient   pam_bioapi.so {snip} /etc/bioapi/pam/
password   sufficient   pam_bioapi.so {snip} /etc/bioapi/pam/

This works fine for GDM; as soon as I enter my username at the initial
login screen, I get a prompt to swipe my finger.  gksu never shows
anything, however.  It just hangs there indefinitely.  strace output is
(over and over):

nanosleep({0, 100}, NULL)   = 0
read(15, 0xb7fa2000, 1024)  = -1 EAGAIN (Resource temporarily 
unavailable)
waitpid(13318, 0xbfaca18c, WNOHANG) = 0
stat64(/proc/13318, {st_mode=S_IFDIR|0555, st_size=0, ...}) = 0
open(/proc/13318/stat, O_RDONLY)  = 16
read(16, 13318 (sudo) S 13317 13318 13318..., 8191) = 189

Try running sudo -K; gksudo -d echo Test from a terminal.   That might give 
us a clue as to why it 
nanosleep({0, 100}, unfinished ... was called.  

If it hangs, try the same strace approach again, please.

Yes, it only happens every once in a while.  Not in a while lately
though.

 One very good way to get developers
 to look at your bug is a reproducible set of steps to invoke the bug.

Indeed.  I provide that when there are some.  In this case there are
not.  I believe I did provide information from a running process though
as you requested.  Since the process is still running when this happens
perhaps you can a) think of some information to gather when it happens
and add it to this bug and/or b) instrument gksu with some hooks/tests
that can be invoked when it does happen.

 I
 should note that I don't have a 64bit install, so it might be a 64bit
 related problem.

Nope.  Only 32-bit here.

 Also, I'd be very careful in asking people to attach a strace of
 authentication tools -- it's pretty easy to pick out passwords such
 things!

Indeed.  Apport is in fact very good at making people's passwords pretty
public.  I've griped about that before though.

Well, that is true, if I felt any confidence in that the bug was
actually being worked but it has been 3 and a half months since the last
comment was made on that bug by anyone appearing to be trying to work it
despite 2 followups by me with additional information and another two
followups by me just looking for status and a followup by another person
experiencing the same problem.

Could you honestly tell me that you would feel confident that a bug of
High Importance is being worked on with that kind of track record?

Again, this has happened.  The strace of gksu is the same as I
previously posted as well, this time update-manager was run in a
terminal and prior to this problem it reported:

and that's where gksu and sudo are sitting, but no dialog to enter the

[Bug 91151] Re: gksu doesn't always pop up a dialog

2007-03-12 Thread Michael Vogt
Thanks for your bugreport.

If it hangs again for you, can you please run:
$ sudo strace -p `pidof gksu` 

and attach the output to this bugreport (or a shorter version of the
output as it maybe rather long).

Thanks,
 Michael

Skipping updates should only be done if you need to separate the
download or in some rare cases.

There has been a problem with gksu lately. Please update your system
using the commands sudo apt-get update and sudo apt-get -u dist-
upgrade.

Cheers,

Sebastian

The current case is that my machine is a regular old 32-bit Athlon.  I
don't see the need to update the 200-some-odd packages that were updated
because: Rebuild for changes in the amd64 toolchain.

Presumably those changes are not going to affect the i{3,4,5,6}86
packages, yes?  Why bother to download and update 200 packages when the
result is a no-op (in fact, I would argue that i{3,4,5,6}86 packages
should not have even been rebuilt -- but that is probably a somewhat
complicated problem with generic build systems)?  I will install any of
those packages when something meaningful is done to them.

That said, I agree, and generally do install all updates.

 There has been a problem with gksu lately. Please update your system
 using the commands sudo apt-get update and sudo apt-get -u dist-
 upgrade.

Why dist-upgrade?  I don't see anything in the update list in
update-manager reflecting gksu.  In fact at the moment the only in I
have outstanding in update-manager are those almost-200 packages that
were rebuilt due to the amd64 toolchain changes.
