Package: xauth Version: 1:1.0.10-1 Severity: important Dear Maintainer,
Since the upgrade (and dist-upgrade) from stretch to buster, startx delays to start and also to exit, everytime. The first message in the systemd journal after I run startx is: kernel: xauth[12556]: segfault at 1 ip 00007f058e06d405 sp 00007fff095bb9e8 error 4 in libc-2.25.so[7f058dfd7000+199000] The numbers vary, but it is always "at 1 ip" and "error 4". In the tty, after the initial delay and right before launching X, there's a message complaining that xauth couldn't lock .Xauthority. After quitting wm (i3), there's also another delay and, before running startx again, I have to remove the generated .Xauthority-*. If I run startx with the .Xauthority-* files, there's an even higher startup delay. In this case, strace shows that xauth keeps complaining about already-existent .Xauthority-* files. -- System Information: Debian Release: buster/sid APT prefers testing APT policy: (500, 'testing') Architecture: amd64 (x86_64) Kernel: Linux 4.13.0-1-amd64 (SMP w/4 CPU cores) Locale: LANG=en_US.UTF-8, LC_CTYPE=en_US.UTF-8 (charmap=UTF-8), LANGUAGE=en_US.UTF-8 (charmap=UTF-8) Shell: /bin/sh linked to /bin/dash Init: systemd (via /run/systemd/system) Versions of packages xauth depends on: ii libc6 2.25-3 ii libx11-6 2:1.6.4-3 ii libxau6 1:1.0.8-1+b2 ii libxext6 2:1.3.3-1+b2 ii libxmuu1 2:1.1.2-2 xauth recommends no packages. xauth suggests no packages. -- no debconf information
