Hi Martin,
Hi all,
I investigated a bit more, and (at least for my setups) it seems that
libdbus is the culprit.
In my setup, there are several cups servers up and running. The on
running on my Workstation works fine - and my workstation is a 'full
grown installation' with X-Servers, Gnome and all that stuff.
But the stripped down printservers suffer from this problem. I think it
depends on what is installed and what not.
I recompiled cups packages (the original feisty ones and 1.2.12 from
gusty) with --disable-dbus and the file descriptor leak was gone for all
my systems.
On one system that was previously working with the original feisty
packages, the fd leaking started after installing additional printer
drivers (cups-driver-gutenprint - and i think hpijs). The dependencies
pulled lots of other packages - f.i. some xorg/x11 related libs. After
that, cups (or libdbus) tries to start dbus-launch, which itself
complains something like "Autolaunch error: X11 initializa"... - (see my
previous strace post).
i attach a list of installed packages of one of my servers. don't get
confused - the installed cups packages are mine, taken from gusty and
compiled with dbus disabled on feisty. But the fd leak starts as soon as
i install the original feisty packages.
Hope this helps reproducing the bug. I also could do some further
debugging / investigation if needed. Shall we involve dbus people?
have a nice day,
chris
