Package: cvs Version: 1:1.12.13-4 Severity: minor
When a remote pserver operation is interrupted for some reason, cvs will get a recursive error trying to tell the disconnected client that it has been disconnected. This recursive error generates a series of syslog entries with LOG_DAEMON|LOG_EMERG which is highly excessive for a simple client disconnect. A sample broadcast of the error message: Message from [EMAIL PROTECTED] at Tue Sep 5 12:03:18 2006 ... ubb cvs: error (1, 0) called recursively. Original message was: Message from [EMAIL PROTECTED] at Tue Sep 5 12:03:18 2006 ... ubb cvs: cvs [checkout aborted]: flow control EOF Message from [EMAIL PROTECTED] at Tue Sep 5 12:03:18 2006 ... ubb cvs: error (1, 0) called recursively. Second message was: Message from [EMAIL PROTECTED] at Tue Sep 5 12:03:18 2006 ... ubb cvs: cvs [checkout aborted]: received broken pipe signal Message from [EMAIL PROTECTED] at Tue Sep 5 12:03:18 2006 ... ubb cvs: Aborting. These messages are generated in src/error.c around line 220. I would suggest that this syslog message does not need to be any higher than LOG_ERR, and could quite reasonably be even lower. -- System Information: Debian Release: testing/unstable APT prefers unstable APT policy: (500, 'unstable') Architecture: i386 (i586) Shell: /bin/sh linked to /bin/bash Kernel: Linux 2.6.17.8 Locale: LANG=en_US, LC_CTYPE=en_US (charmap=ISO-8859-1) Versions of packages cvs depends on: ii debconf [debconf-2.0] 1.5.3 Debian configuration management sy ii libc6 2.3.6.ds1-4 GNU C Library: Shared libraries ii libpam-runtime 0.79-3.2 Runtime support for the PAM librar ii libpam0g 0.79-3.2 Pluggable Authentication Modules l ii zlib1g 1:1.2.3-13 compression library - runtime Versions of packages cvs recommends: ii info [info-browser] 4.8.dfsg.1-2 Standalone GNU Info documentation ii konqueror [info-browser] 4:3.5.4-2 KDE's advanced file manager, web b ii netbase 4.26 Basic TCP/IP networking system -- debconf information excluded -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe".
