PackageKit-command-not-found giving repo_add_solv() has failed

[George N. White III]

Bug 1979048 <https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=1979048>

TLDNR:

Fedora 34, updated from Fedora 33 and using zsh.   System has been updated
using dnf.

zsh uses:

PackageKit-command-not-found.x86_64 : Ask the user to install command line
programs automatically

% xindy
zsh: xindy: command not found...
Failed to search for file: repo_add_solv() has failed.

This should offer to install the texlive-xindy package.

Do you know when the software was used?

Maybe a tool for Acorn NetFS
, which
now redirects to Econet  on
Wikipedia.
"Support for Econet was removed from the Linux kernel
 at version 3.5 in 2012"

 See: https://www.exploit-db.com/exploits/15704 for an exploit and note that
"RedHat does not support Econet by default".

 * CVE-2010-3849
 * -
 * This is a NULL pointer dereference in the Econet protocol.  By itself, it's
 * fairly benign as a local denial-of-service.  It's a perfect candidate to
 * trigger the above issue, since it's reachable via sock_no_sendpage(), which
 * subsequently calls sendmsg under KERNEL_DS.
 *
 * CVE-2010-3850
 * -
 * I wouldn't be able to reach the NULL pointer dereference and trigger the
 * OOPS if users weren't able to assign Econet addresses to arbitrary
 * interfaces due to a missing capabilities check.
 *
 * In the interest of public safety, this exploit was specifically designed to
 * be limited:
 *
 *  * The particular symbols I resolve are not exported on Slackware or Debian
 *  * Red Hat does not support Econet by default
 *  * CVE-2010-3849 and CVE-2010-3850 have both been patched by Ubuntu and
 *Debian
 *
 * However, the important issue, CVE-2010-4258, affects everyone, and it would
 * be trivial to find an unpatched DoS under KERNEL_DS and write a slightly
 * more sophisticated version of this that doesn't have the roadblocks I put in
 * to prevent abuse by script kiddies.
 *
 * Tested on unpatched Ubuntu 10.04 kernels, both x86 and x86-64.


You might try installing Ubuntu 10.04
 in a VM.The
University of Utah has a
large collection of VM's and might be able to help, but "netfsname" doesn't
appear in https://www.math.utah.edu/~beebe/unix/unix-commands.html .   They
may not be installing old network software.   They do have

ftp://ftp.math.utah.edu/pub/mirrors/ftp.redhat.com/pub/redhat/linux/8.0/en/iso/i386/

No idea, I can't find any reference for it.  Check what the following 
lines do with it.  Maybe you can just comment it out since you're 
probably not using a network filesystem.

The line that causes the error is:

Searching with dnf I wasn't able to get any matches. I understand it

+1 to that. The bash-completion is in theory useful but in many cases it 
doesn't fallback to the default properly which is just annoying.

Me too, and particularly since I discovered the M-/ (or Alt-/,
complete-filename) key to force a simple filename completion when the
full (too fancy) completion with TAB is not what you want.

The bash-completion is really useful with a bunch of commands
nowadays.

If you have "PackageKit-command-not-found" installed, then it's trying 
to find you a package to install to give you that command.  Try running 
a command that could exist, but you don't have installed.  For example, 
"cowsay". :-)  (Unless you do have that installed.)

It's probably trying to give you a clue on how to install the right
package to get that command.

Try removing PackageKit-command-not-found if you don't want that

  i'm finally annoyed enough about this to just ask ... on a regular

  bash: xxx: command not found...

but, quite often, rather than getting a bash prompt back immediately,
there is a lng pause, as i wait, and wait, and wait for a new
prompt, finally running out of patience and breaking with ^C to get a

bash command not found

In fedora14 in cli if i try an unknown command the system tried to find 
the package containing this command.
This seems to not work in f15.
# telnet
bash: telnet: command not found...

and that's all. The system does not propose to install telnet client

Is this normal ?

Hi Eric,

after uninstalling telnet and typing telnet somehost inside of a 
gnome-terminal, I get:


telnet somehost
bash: telnet: command not found...
Install package 'telnet' to provide command 'telnet'? [N/y

Answering with yes will install the telnet package, and the telnet cmd 
is started.

No. Don't just reinstall a package if it isn't broken.
Try to examine the problem a bit. Everything's there for
you to look at.

$ rpm -ql PackageKit-command-not-found
/etc/PackageKit/CommandNotFound.conf
/etc/profile.d/PackageKit.sh
/usr/libexec/pk-command-not-found

Look at /etc/profile.d/PackageKit.sh and try to find out
whether it is run and where it terminates.

Two observations:

- If Packagekit-command-not-found is active, the error message seems to
change from:

bash: thunderbird: command not found

to:

bash: thunderbird: command not found...

(Note the ...)

- If pk-c-n-f times out on fetching file list metadata, it seems to
silently stop trying to suggest packages. I've seen this on slow
connections and disconnected machines. IIRC, fetching recent metadata
(e.g., by using yum to find a file-level dependency) restores pk-c-n-f's
operation.

This is by design. I lost count of the number of bugs opened against
PackageKit-command-not-found where yum would happily go and download
the latest metadata and take 3 minutes to return to the bash prompt,
even when yum is told to work from a cache.

If you want the old behaviour back, just up the timeout in
/etc/PackageKit/CommandNotFound.conf

# Controls how long we should allow the user to wait when searching for
# additional packages.
# This can be set to very small numbers to avoid distracting the user, although
# some entries may not be found if the caches need refreshing or metadata
# downloading.
#
# Value is the number of milliseconds to allow.

# default=2000
MaxSearchTime=2000

This could well be simply a matter of adjusting the timeout, i.e. the
behaviour depends on the current speed of your network.

(Personally I think this level of helpfulness is totally out of place
in a Shell, so I fixed it by uninstalling PackageKit-command-not-found).

command not found

[Jurek Bajor]

Hi,
this is the current state of the matter:

[...@localhost ~]$ clera
bash: /usr/libexec/pk-command-not-found: No such file or directory
[r...@localhost jb]# yum install PackageKit-command-not-found
...
[r...@localhost jb]# clera--  note
the root mode
bash: clera: command not found
[...@localhost ~]$ clera-- note
the user mode
Command not found. Similar command is: 'clear'

I think somebody went over the hills ...
Bash is a too important application to be subjected to that kind of
experimentation !

I put this in my ~/.bashrc

But you can also quash it system wide via:

   yum erase PackageKit-command-not-found

I don't suffer from this self-inflicted wound but checking what is in
one's 'PATH' environmental variable is always a good idea anyway.

One possility is you having
PackageKit-command-not-found
installed.

It changes bash's behavior to invoke yum to install a package providing 
the not found command and causes major issues in using shells.

= yum remove PackageKit-command-not-found
