Linux linux 2.6.38-11-generic #47-Ubuntu SMP Fri Jul 15 19:27:09 UTC 2011 x86_64 x86_64 x86_64 GNU/Linux Description: Ubuntu 11.04 Codename: natty After months of kernel and application crashes and corrupt files, I was ready to abandon Ubuntu 11.04 and go to some other distribution. Before doing that, I wrote a script to repeatedly md5sum the files in my ecryptfs directory and compare the results. I went single-user to ensure that nothing else was running and, sure enough, the script showed that md5sums changed randomly on files that I never touched. I went looking today and found this launchpad entry indicating that you have known for 18 months (since 9.10!) that ecryptfs is broken and is not suitable for production use. Why didn't you disable it in recent releases? My 11.04 install offered to encrypt my home directory during installation, yet you've known for 18 months that to do so would corrupt my system and crash it. I am frustrated that nobody took prompt action to disable the use of ecryptfs and to notify those of us using it. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Desktop Packages, which is subscribed to libreoffice in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/745836 Title: soffice.bin crashed with SIGSEGV in cppu::throwException() Status in LibreOffice Productivity Suite: Invalid Status in “ecryptfs-utils” package in Ubuntu: Confirmed Status in “libreoffice” package in Ubuntu: Confirmed Status in “openoffice.org” package in Ubuntu: Won't Fix Bug description: Binary package hint: libreoffice 1) lsb_release -rd Description: Ubuntu 11.04 Release: 11.04 2) apt-cache policy libreoffice-calc libreoffice-calc: Installed: 1:3.3.3-1ubuntu2 Candidate: 1:3.3.3-1ubuntu2 Version table: *** 1:3.3.3-1ubuntu2 0 100 /var/lib/dpkg/status 1:3.3.2-1ubuntu5 0 500 http://us.archive.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/ natty-updates/main i386 Packages 1:3.3.2-1ubuntu4 0 500 http://us.archive.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/ natty/main i386 Packages apt-cache policy libreoffice-writer libreoffice-writer: Installed: 1:3.3.3-1ubuntu2 Candidate: 1:3.3.3-1ubuntu2 Version table: *** 1:3.3.3-1ubuntu2 0 100 /var/lib/dpkg/status 1:3.3.2-1ubuntu5 0 500 http://us.archive.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/ natty-updates/main i386 Packages 1:3.3.2-1ubuntu4 0 500 http://us.archive.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/ natty/main i386 Packages 3) What is expected to happen in a KDE Natty in a KDE session with the KDE integration active or GNOME is a Writer or Calc file untouched for a long period of time (ex. 1 hour+) is when one tries to edit it, the application does not crash. 4) What happens instead is it crashes.
