Quote:
I have added a work around (new packages at the same URL), where I do
(effectively):

fastjar xf $jar
rm -f $jar
fastjar ufm $jar newmanifest *

I can't use any other jar and have it in main still.

This works fine now! :-)

You can close bug #489432 as well.

I have already updated my jaranalyzer package and removed the workaround
for bugs #489432 and #489214. See [1].

The jaranalyzer package now build-depends on javahelper >= 0.13. As soon
as you upload your newest javahelper package, jaranalyzer should be
pbuilder-clean again.

Thanks for the quick resolution. :-)

I hope it can help you

Hi Kel and Bernard,

I am traveling right now and should be able to get to the patches attached in
bugs 488536 and 488538 in about a week or so. I hope that is OK, if you would
like more quick action, please do request an NMU from somebody that uses and
understands ifplugd and would be able to test the patches.

Thank you for the patches, apologies for responding a bit late.

Giridhar


I have a series of 5 patches located at:
http://users.tpg.com.au/sigm/patches/ifplugd/

Each patch contains a blurb about what change it introduces.

They close a couple of other bugs too that I have not referenced in the patch
explanation blurbs yet. Also, extra doumentation is probably required and new
features (allow-hotplugd, wpa_roam.action semantics).

So I was hoping for a small amount of review/conversation/testing before
they are finally accepted (if accepted), so that I may make further changes
based on your feedback. Therefore, I have no plans to seek someone to NMU
in the meantime, I will be patient while you are busy with life ;-)

Thanks, Kel.

No, since there are peoples which do not use initramfs-tools at all. I

Hi,

I have started seeing the same problem here recently. The command I use
here is:

xterm -fn 8x13 -geometry 100x65 -e /home/fgouget/bin/alpine

Of course, neither alpine nor xterm hang.

What is a bit strange is that it's only very recently that I started
seeing this (it feels like past few days, maybe past week). And yet I
upgraded gkrellm on the following dates:

2008/01/09 2.3.1-1
2008/04/17 2.3.1-1+b1
2008/05/21 2.3.1-2

I usually don't restart gkrellm after performing an upgrade round so I
may not have noticed the issue immediately after the upgrade. But I
estimate that the issue only started at least a month after the last
upgrade. Also it's 2.3.1 all the way which means it's either a packaging
bug or something that changed in one of the libraries gkrellm uses. So
I'm leaning towards the latter...


Well, -2 version was about changing gkrellmd, not gkrellm. So I can't

see which is the issue in the packaging... Source didn't change that
much, the patches we applied to the package were merged upstream and
those are basically all the changes on 2.3.1...

Regards.

Package: wdm
Version: 1.28-3
Severity: minor

The Debian logo that appears in the WDM default theme is the so-called
fake logo. [0]

According to this mail [1], the fake logo [2] has the 'outer tail'
thicker than the normal one [3]

Also, the font in the fake logo is not correct either. To fix this
problem, is possible to use the true type font "Laudatio C" [4] or use
an SVG version available on debianart.org [5]

It's not a *big* deal the wrong logo, but would be nice to solve this
little problem since this false logo is circulating since (at least)
2006, and certainly is not correct.

Second, the bin/mklib script has some internal support for restricting
the set of exports (the -exports option) but that feature has a
critical bug when used with Linux/Solaris version scripts: it assigns
all symbols the same version, derived from the soname. This is wrong.
Symbol versions are part of the ABI and need to stay stable once
assigned; if a program that wants, say, gluNewQuadric@GLU_1.0 is run
with a libglu.so that only has a @GLU_1.1 version, the dynamic linker
will barf.

My preferred way to deal with this would be to have a GNU-ld-style
version script for GLU in the source tree, and document that mklib
-exports expects a file in that format. mklib would then convert that
to whatever format other platforms' linkers want -- as far as I know,
the GNU version script is strictly more featureful than any other
similar format. I'm not going to implement the conversions, though;
that's for the maintainers of the support for those other platforms..
Do you think that would be something you could get back into upstream?

Instead of doing that conversion, I suggest just changing mklib to not
set a version in the version script (none of the Makefiles in mesa
currently seem to use that, so it seems safe, if other platforms'
linkers can deal with that).

Quote:
Go ahead and implement it and submit a patch to bugzilla. Sounds good
from your description.

Attached two patches. The first modifies mklib as mentioned above. The

second uses that to restrict the list of symbols exported by libGLU
(I copied the list from src/glu/sgi/glu.def).

I'm not sure if this is worth logging, it's a "can't happen" error to
some extent.

bind(2) say something different. There are many different errors which
may pop up. Also as you have seen, this is no "can't happen" error. And
it is always a bad idea to "ignore" errors. Functions which can't
produce errors have a void return type.

ENOMEM might be another cause, but if resources are that

ENOMEM does not say that no memory for userspace operations is

After upgrading from galeon/2.0.4-1 to galeon/2.0.6-1, it seems

I was thinking about a possible way to implement the MyPortal
functionality in galeon without relying on xulrunner: maybe an XSLT
transform could generate an XHTML page directly from the XBEL bookmark
file. The XHTML could refer to an external CSS stylesheet, which can
be tweaked to reproduce the previous MyPortal presentation style (or
any other layout the user could desire!).

At that point, the following command should be automatically invoked
whenever a new (modified) version of ~/.galeon/bookmarks.xbel is saved
(and its backups ~/.galeon/bookmarks.xbel.? get rotated):

xsltproc ~/.galeon/xbel2myportal.xslt ~/.galeon/bookmarks.xbel > ~/.galeon/myportal.html

Finally, when the user loads the myportal: location, galeon should
transparently load ~/.galeon/myportal.html, which uses
~/.galeon/myportal.css as stylesheet.

Can this be done?


Wait, it seems that I am not the first one having more or less this
idea: http://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=96120

PostPosted: Sun Jul 13, 2008 9:30 pm    Post subject: Bug#490650: aptitude: etch-backports/+M, dependency, somethi Reply with quote

On Sun, Jul 13, 2008 at 02:31:15PM +0300, Shachar Or <dawnlight@lavabit.com> was heard to say:
Quote:
When I type 'aptitude install fuse-utils/etch-backports
libfuse2/etch-backports+M' I expect aptitude to install both packages
from etch-backports and mark the libfuse2 package as being automatically
installed.

What happens is that the libfuse2 package doesn't get selected for
installation, or perhaps it get deselected because "nothing depends on
it". Thing is, fuse-utils does depend on it. So I assume this has to do
with the fact the aptitude by default chooses to not mark dependencies
when they are from etch-backports.

It has more to do with this:

--- cut here ---
pkgCache::VerIterator ver=pkg.CurrentVer();
if(action==cmdline_install)
ver=cmdline_find_ver(pkg, source, sourcestr);

// ...

switch(action)
{
case cmdline_installauto:
case cmdline_install:
case cmdline_reinstall:
if(action==cmdline_reinstall && pkg.CurrentVer().end())
break;

(*apt_cache_file)->set_candidate_version(ver, NULL);
(*apt_cache_file)->mark_install(pkg, allow_auto && aptcfg->FindB(PACKAGE "::Auto-Install", true),
action == cmdline_reinstall, NULL);
--- cut here ---

The attached patch should fix it.

As a workaround, I think you should be able to get the effect you
want by listing the package later on the command-line with '&M'
appended, as in:

aptitude install fuse-utils/etch-backports libfuse2/etch-backports "libfuse2&M"

Is this a problem in Octave or a problem in the SWIG wrapper? (I would need
this information in order to reassign the bug to another Debian package).

I think that a fix should go in the SWIG wrapper rather in octave.

This means that we should reassign the bug report from octave-ftp to the
swig package. Do you agree? If yes, could you make a short suggestion on
what should be changed in SWIG to fix the bug? I will then forward this to
the swig maintainer.

The thread I referred already explains what the problem is. In summary,
an oct-file that defines a new octave object class (octave_base_value
inherited) should also make sure not to be unloaded before all objects
of that class have been deleted. It should somehow lock itself to avoid
unloading.
