Bug#292182: freemind will not start

[Eric Lavarde]

Hi,
it most probably all rely on the fact that FreeMind doesn't work with 
free Java implementations (kaffee, classpath, gcj, etc...) but only with 
Sun/Blackdown (see 
http://freemind.sourceforge.net/wiki/index.php/FreeMind_on_Linux#I_get_an_error_java.lang.NoClassDefFoundError_when_starting_FreeMind).

Also, I don't know if it's a reportbug limitation or if you twicked your 
setup, but sun-j2re1.4debian is listed below without sun-j2re1.4.
If Sun's Java is nevertheless installed on your machine, you can solve 
your problem by reading the man page freemind(1) or by using the help 
given by the above link (e.g. setting JAVA_HOME).

The fact that FreeMind, despite a GPL license, is in 'contrib' is for me 
sign enough that it depends on a non-free Java, but I will make it more 
obvious in the next version. I don't think there is a technical way to 
force this kind of thing... This reduces anyway the problem to a small 
documentation glitch.

You're welcome to give me feedback.
Cheers, Eric

Bug#342006: gksu: German translation not complete

[Eric Lavarde]

Package: gksu
Version: 1.3.6-1
Severity: minor


Hi,

the following message doesn't seem to be translated in German (other
things are so I assume, setup is correct - other user, ignore below
locale):

> The "/sbin/ifup eth0" program was started with the privileges of the
> root user without the need to ask for a password, due to your system's
> authentication mechanism setup.
> 
> It is possible that you are being allowed to run specific programs as

>

(the French translation doesn't show this behavior, so it's specific to
German).

My proposal:

> Das "/sbin/ifup eth0" Programm wurde mit den Privilegien vom root
> Benutzer gestartet, ohne dass die Abfrage eines Passworts notwendig
> wurde (das liegt am Authentifikationsmechanismus Ihres Systems).

Bug#342087: xfce4: Xfce4 doesn't support nicely VMware Quick Switch mode (or the other way around)

[Eric Lavarde]

Package: xfce4
Version: 4.0.5-1
Severity: normal


Hi,

I tried to use XFce4 and was very impressed by the speed compared to
KDE. As I'm not really using specificas of KDE, I was thinking of
switching but there is a very annoying "bug" in relation with VMware
(Workstation 4.5.2-8849).
VMware has a Quick Switch mode (Key F11), which is a
fullscreen-lookalike mode, where the title bar disappears and the menu
bar as well with the possibility to pop-up, only a small frame remains
around the guest window, optimizing the space used.
That's how it works at least under KDE, but under XFce4 the title bar
doesn't disappear (the menu can still pop up and down) but the windows
is still calculated in such a way as if it would, so that the bottom of
the guest window disappears below the screen. Quite annoying.

Thanks, Eric

Bug#337141: freemind: Does not escape file names properly when launching Mozilla

[Eric Lavarde]

Hi Javier,

OK, I've seen the bug, and it's in deed a problem within the code of 
FreeMind. This issue is also already solved upstream, though only in 
version 0.8.0, so I don't think I will fix it for version 0.7.1-6
(I have not so much time, no real "envy", but also a bad conscience, so 
I might change my mind... :-/ )
In any cases, the problem is solved in version 0.8.0+01-2, which you are 
welcome to install... :>


Cheers, Eric

Hi,

thanks for the feedback, you're right, there is a bug.
The last line, calling java with freemind.jar, is missing double quotes
around the $@ parameter. This is fixed in the next version of FreeMind
(0.8.0), which is not yet in Debian for different dependency reasons.
You can get the next version from freemind.sf.net (look at release notes
of the freemind-deb package), or you can correct the script yourself
(corrected version attached), I don't plan an update right now.



Thanks, but this solves a different bug. To reproduce mine follow these
steps:

1) From the shell, go to your home directory and do "touch filename\
with\ whitespace" to create file "filename with withspace."
2) Open freemind, enter "File Mode."
3) Browse to your home directory, click on the red arrow pointing to the
file we just created. You'll see Mozilla being opened (in my case
Epiphany) and failing to open the file because it contains a space in
the name.

Hi,

I tried to compile freemind 0.8.0 with kaffe 1.1.6, i.e. with jikes, and the

Bug#338176: jikes: Strace shows it's a segmentation fault.

[Eric Lavarde]

Package: jikes
Version: 1:1.22-3
Followup-For: Bug #338176


Hi,

I tried further to call directly jikes, with strace on top of it, and I now
attach the output of it. To be honest, the only thing I get from it is that
it's a segmentation fault.
I also tentatively tried:
- 'strace -v' but it didn't give any more information
- and bump target/source to 1.4, but it didn't make any difference.

Hope this helps solving the issue,
Eric

Bug#339012: debootstrap: /usr/bin/mail installed without package, doesn't work.

[Eric Lavarde]

Package: debootstrap
Version: 0.3.3
Severity: normal


Hi,

I've installed a sid chroot using debootstrap (unstable on sarge), and
wasn't able to send bug reports from within using reportbug (that's my
actual problem).
Digging a bit into it, I found out that:
1. /usr/bin/mail is installed but not through dpkg:
$ dpkg -S /usr/bin/mail
dpkg: /usr/bin/mail not found.
2. a dependency is missing:
$ mail -s testchroot [EMAIL PROTECTED]
mail: error while loading shared libraries: liblockfile.so.1: cannot
open shared object file: No such file or directory
3. after installation of liblockfile1, mail doesn't complain anymore and
   seems to work, though something is still wrong, but I think that's
   another story.

Thanks, Eric

  Description : native XML database in Java

>From the Apache site:

> Apache Xindice is a database designed from the ground up to store XML

> You might be wondering what a native XML database is good for? Well it
> pretty much has one purpose, storing XML data. If you don't have any XML
> data, don't want any XML data or think XML is the most over-hyped
> technology of the new millennium, then Xindice is not for you. We're not
> out to change the way data in general is stored, only to provide a good
> solution for storing XML data. If you survey your projects and see XML

My main interest is in the XML:DB part, which is a prerequisite for the
RFP #296117 libjaxme-java -- open source implementation of JAXB, the
specification for Java/XML binding. I would suggest to have a separate
binary package for this one.

Thanks, Eric

Bug#312779: freemind: java dependencies just right, use java-package to create Java package.

[Eric Lavarde]

Package: freemind
Version: 0.7.9.rc3-2
Followup-For: Bug #312779


Hi,

from the 'apt-cache show freemind' output:

> Use java-package to create a required Sun/Blackdown Java Runtime package.
> FreeMind doesn't work with free (and incomplete) Java implementations.

So, to be specific to your case:
1. install java-package and create your own Java package.
2. FreeMind doesn't work with gcj.

If you don't shout very loud, I'll close the case in a short while.

Hope this helps, Eric

Bug#313539: libgtk2.0-0: GtkCalendar doesn't respond properly to locale change for week starting day.

[Eric Lavarde]

Package: libgtk2.0-0
Version: 2.6.4-3
Severity: normal
Tags: l10n


Hi,

this bug is loosely related to #272054 because I'm still trying to get
my calendar to start on mondays.
First, I have per default the locale LANG=en_IE.UTF-8 and the week
starts on Sunday, though I'd say it should start on Monday (but I'm not
sure).
So I tried things like:
$ LANG=fr_FR jpilot
and
$ LANG=fr_FR xfcalendar
(I tried different values fr_FR.UTF-8, fr_FR.ISO8859-1 and similar ones
with de_DE). Both programs use the GtkCalendar widget from gtk2 and I'm sure
France and Germany have a week starting on Monday.
Nevertheless, the days and month names are translated but the week still
starts on Sunday.

My system is a pretty freshly installed Sarge system (from RC3 but
up-to-date), so I don't see where I could have mixed up the
configuration (which doesn't mean I didn't ;-) ).

Thanks for your help,
Eric

Version: 1:800.025-2
Followup-For: Bug #244738


Hi,

the title says it all.

But the underlying question is: the original bug is one year old, the
package is in adoption since 6 months
(http://bugs.debian.org/cgi-bin/bugreport.cgi?bug=279823),
is really someone maintaining this package?

Thanks, Eric

Bug#249041: partman in d-i RC2 breaks Red-Hat FC2 by setting root FS label.

[Eric Lavarde]

Package: partman
Version: RC2
Followup-For: Bug #249041


Hi,

I posted the following on debian-devel and was told that I should file
the bug against partman (so here you are! ;-) ):

I don't know if my opinion counts but I _did_ notice that d-i creates
labels, and at the same time broke my parallel Red-Hat FC2 installation,
which all of soudain tried to use my debian root partition (LABEL=/) as
its own root partition, without luck of course, and with a lot of really
strange error messages.
It took me quite a while to figure out the problem, so here is the
message: labels do only properly work at install time, if no other
system is using them as well. 

So, I don't think it's especially a good idea to set labels by default.

Thanks, Eric

Bug#315110: kernel-image-2.4.27-2-686: Module smc-ircc too verbose in dmesg when irda-utils in discovery mode.

[Eric Lavarde]

Package: kernel-image-2.4.27-2-686

Hi,

I needed to set irda-utils to discovery mode (using 'dpkg-reconfigure
irda-utils') and since then the smc-ircc module is sending continuously
the following one-line to dmesg:

irport_hard_xmit_Rac256893()

so that nothing meaningful remains in the buffer.

Relevant part of /etc/modutils/irda-utils:

Do you need me to try, or can you do without?

Bug#254521: Vmware "Quick Switch" option doesn't work properly under xfwm4

[Eric Lavarde]

Hi Simon,

thanks for asking back. Actually, in the (long) mean time, I went back 
to KDE, so I assume you can close this bug.


Cheers, Eric

VMware workstation has a modus called "Quick Switch" (F11 shortcut),

This works well under KDE, but not under Xfce4/Xfwm4:
- the window bar doesn't disappear.
- the menu bar neither (though it pops-up as normal)
- and the maximized window disappears behind the bottom of the screen
 because menu bar and window bar are not counted in the 
 "window maximization calculation".




Hope this is all clear (I join a snapshot), don't hesitate to ask back if you
need more information or clarification.




VMware is installed as RPM package:
VMwareWorkstation-4.0.0-4460



Does this still happen with 4.2.2 in unstable?

Did you try setting the panel to autohide?

[Eric Lavarde]

Hi,

it might be the reason for the error messages, but it doesn't seem to be 
the full answer. I after boot time, I unload everything, and reload pwc:

zorglub:~# rmmod bt878
zorglub:~# rmmod bttv
zorglub:~# rmmod pwc
zorglub:~# rmmod videodev
zorglub:~# rmmod v4l2_common
zorglub:~# modprobe pwc

then I don't get anything suspicious in dmesg and videodev/v4l2_common 
are loaded properly together with pwc:


zorglub:~# lsmod
Module  Size  Used by
pwc90356  0
videodev9728  1 pwc
v4l2_common 5824  1 pwc

So, why doesn't it work properly at boot time?

Cheers, Eric

Hi,
 as you can see[0] this in not an pwc error, you have to load videodev
kernel module before using pwc module. Maybe there is a way to make an
modules.conf setting to avoid this. I have to check it.

Please close this bug if this is the solution of your error.

Thanks

  Description : framework helping you lay out and implement elegant Swing 
panels quickly and consistently

 The FormLayout has been designed to be powerful, flexible, precise and
 easy to learn and understand. It can significantly reduce the time to
 describe a form and to fill it with components. The layout manager
 introduces a unique layout feature: it honors the screen resolution and
 dialog font size to retain the layout proportions in different
 environments.
 .
 Also, we have seperated the layout task from the panel construction.
 Therefore we provide a set of non-visual builders that assist you in
 defining common panel layouts and in filling a form with components.
 The JGoodies Forms ships with general purpose builders and builders for
 specialized layout tasks. For example, the DefaultFormBuilder helps you
 build forms with one, two, three, or four columns. The ButtonBarBuilder
 specializes in building button bars.
 .
 On top of these non-visual builders the JGoodies Forms provides
 factories that create the most frequently used layouts, panels, bars
 and stacks. We recommend to use the factory methods whenever possible;
 future releases may map a logical panel creation to a concrete creation
 method that honors the platform and look&feel, for example the Mac vs.
 Windows button bar layout, where Mac has the default button in the
 right hand side and Windows in the left. 
 .

(and the main interest for me is that it's a dependency for FreeMind
0.8.0)
The good news is that the library compiles with free java tools (already
succeeded with free-java-sdk).

Cheers, Eric

Bug#313539: libgtk2.0-0: Some more on GtkCalendar, perhaps found reason for bug.

[Eric Lavarde]

Package: libgtk2.0-0
Version: 2.6.4-3
Followup-For: Bug #313539


Hi,

I think I found the reason for the bug by having a look at the source
code.
Looking at gtk/gtkcalendar.c, I found out that the first day of the week
is not determined using the nl_langinfo function but using a translation
string (line 710):
week_start = _("calendar:week_start:0");
(similar issue for "calendar:MY")

This is of course a damn wrong ugly hack, as it's dependent first on the
LANGUAGE variable, instead of LC_TIME, LC_ALL or LANG (and all English speaking
users need to have the week starting on Monday).

Could you please now fix this bug, or make it fix?

Thanks, Eric

perhaps unimportant but it seems to have been already the case in

Bug#335883: libbatik-java: Fop in batik depends on libavalon-framework-java >= 4.2.0

Severity: minor

Hi,

while using FreeMind under Sarge + batik from unstable, I got the
following error:

java.lang.NoClassDefFoundError: 
org/apache/avalon/framework/container/ContainerUtil
at org.apache.fop.svg.PDFTranscoder.transcode(PDFTranscoder.java:121)

At that time, I had libavalon-framework-java 4.1.2-2.1; after upgrade to
version 4.2.0-1, the issue was solved. This means that batik should
depend at least upon this version.

As this might not impact many people, I think a minor severity is OK.

Thanks, Eric

Bug#315110: kernel-image-2.4.27-2-686: irda driver smsc-ircc2 under kernel-image-2.6.8 doesn't seem to work.

[Eric Lavarde]

Hi


Are you sure?

Not anymore :-/


the 2.6.12-5.99 packages in
http://packages.vergenet.net/testing/linux-2.6/
should be complied with gcc-3

Yep, I don't know what happened: I tried to compile the vmware modules 
and vmware-config.pl told me the kernel was compiled with gcc 4.0.2.

I retried yesterday and it went well!?! (my chance I remained polite...)


That indicates that the bug still hasn't been addressed upstream,
and probably that there are no patches floating around.
I would suggest contacting the upstream driver maintainer to see if they
have any ideas.


OK, I'll have a try.

Eric

Bug#327354: libbatik-java: Batik doesn't bring pdf-transcoder.jar but doesn't work either with fop.

[Eric Lavarde]

Package: libbatik-java
Version: 1.5.1-1
Severity: normal


Hi,

I'm trying to package the next version of FreeMind (0.8.0) for Debian,
which has a plugin to export SVG and PDF.
The SVG export works well with the batik package from Debian, but I need
to keep the pdf-transcoder.jar within my package, because fop doesn't
seem to be a proper replacement, even though pdf-transcoder.jar seems
to come from this project.

If I replace pdf-transcoder.jar through fop.jar (from fop 0.20.5-5) in
the FreeMind environment, I get the following exceptions:

org.apache.batik.transcoder.TranscoderException: The specified XML document 
fragment is not an SVG document
at org.apache.fop.svg.PDFTranscoder.transcode(PDFTranscoder.java:163)
at org.apache.batik.transcoder.XMLAbstractTranscoder.transcode(Unknown
Source)
at plugins.svg.ExportPdf.startupMapHook(ExportPdf.java:70)
at 
freemind.modes.ControllerAdapter.invokeHook(ControllerAdapter.java:1583)

I understand the Debian given necessity to remove pdf-transcoder.jar
from the Batik package, but it shouldn't break an essential (for me ;-))
feature of the same. As batik depends on fop for this feature, I place
the bug report on the dependent package (but you might decide
otherwise). At the end batik might recommend a specific version of fop,
with which it works (just an idea).

If the solution is to patch FreeMind to work with batik+fop from Debian,
it's also acceptable if you help me doing this... :->

Thanks, Eric

Bug#321427: mozilla-mailnews: Fixes brought in by Mozilla 1.7.11 should be backported to 1.7.8-1sarge2

[Eric Lavarde]

Package: mozilla-mailnews
Version: 2:1.7.8-1sarge2
Followup-For: Bug #321427


Hi,

perhaps it's obvious but as I didn't see any commitment on this one:
the latest Sarge release of Mozilla 1.7.8-1sarge2 is mainly a backport of the
security fixes brought by Mozilla 1.7.10 (as I understand it).

The release 1.7.11 fixed the flaws introduced by these security fixes,
hence the same flaws should be fixed in Sarge, as listed under
.

I don't know if you have these problems but I can tell you that
especially 300749 (Mozilla's bugzilla ID) is a pain in the bottom, so a
quick fix would be really, really nice!

Bug#329687: freemind: new upstream version (0.8) is available

[Eric Lavarde]

Hi,

I know, I'm the one making the Debian packages for FreeMind and the 
FreeMind packages for Debian... ;-)


FreeMind 0.8.0 is in deed much better than 0.7.1 but it also depends on 
many libraries, which are not all yet in Debian. This will obviously 
cause delays (help is welcome).


In the mean time, you might want to check the packages from my private 
depot under:

  deb http://eric.lavar.de/comp/linux/debian/ experimental/
  deb-src http://eric.lavar.de/comp/linux/debian/ experimental/
(bug reports on those ones are welcome)

Cheers, Eric

Bug#325742: java-common: [Policy] Add need to compile with least possible version.

[Eric Lavarde]

Package: java-common
Version: 0.22
Severity: normal


Hello,

after a short discussion on the java-debian list, I think that something
along the following lines should be added to the Java Policy, most
probably in "Chapter 4. Advices to Java packagers":

- Java libraries should be compiled with the Java compiler having the least
  possible version (i.e. 1.3 instead of 1.4 instead of 1.5):
- supported by java-package for non-free compilers,
- as far as compilation succeeds of course,
- this is especially relevant for packages in contrib, compiled with
  non-free tools (free tools _are_ in Debian and define the version
  to compile with, hence incompatibilities are less of an issue).

Feel free to correct my English, my wording, my presentation, but
please keep the idea... ;-)

Eric

Bug#404123: freemind: window does not resize properly with Composite extensions

[Eric Lavarde]

Hi,

Azureus is using the SWT Toolkit, FreeMind is using the Swing one.
Can you reproduce the absence of issue with another Swing program? e.g. 
jedit.sf.net


Thanks, Eric

PS: I´ve seen the ´dupe´ email, question is if it´s really a compiz 
issue or more a Java/Swing one.

Hi compiz maintainers,

we guess Bug #404123 is related to Bug #403530 but I prefer to give you 
the choice if you want to merge them or not.

Bug#402886: icedove has become highly unstable - 2 to 3 hangs per day

[Eric Lavarde]

Package: icedove
Version: 1.5.0.8.dfsg1-1
Severity: grave


Hi,

since upgrade to the dfsg version, I already had to kill and restart
icedove already ~5 times since yesterday.
Phenomens are very different but it always ends with a hang :-/
I already had a few times icedove stopping to show the content of the
emails: I was switching from one folder to the next, and from one
message to the next, but icedove showed always the same email content.
Today, I had icedove hanging while trying to send an email, and I could
capture part of the strace story; I noticed that icedove complained
about files already existing though it created them itself. I then tried to
remove the temporary files while icedove was running. It went a bit
further but continued to hang, at which point I killed it.

I set the severity to grave because it's currently not feasible to work
properly with icedove, and I don't think it should go to stable like it
is.

Thanks, Eric

Bug#342315: mozilla-mplayer: links into firefox/plugins are not created anymore.

[Eric Lavarde]

Package: mozilla-mplayer
Version: 3.31-8
Followup-For: Bug #342315


Hi,

it looks like the links into /usr/lib/firefox/plugins disappeared as
part of the migration to the iceanimals. It might be OK in etch, but
it's quite disturbing during the transition phase; would it be possible
to get the links back until firefox has disappeared from etch?

Especially, if you have e.g. konqueror installed in parallel to firefox,
you wonder why mozilla-mplayer installs but doesn't show up in
about:plugins. Possibly some transitional solution might be required to
go cleanly from sarge to etch as well.

Thanks, Eric

Thanks, I might reconsider doing so, if absolutely necessary. For now, I

Oookay, thanks for the info. Any plan to get seamonkey in Etch instead?



But, ok, if you really need it, I can build the package with 1.7.13
later tonight.
That would be really nice, yes, it would give me the time to make my

Bug#400617: samba: FAM support doesn't seem to work with gamin

[Eric Lavarde]

Package: samba
Version: 3.0.23d-1
Severity: grave


Hi,

I just upgrade samba and started to get massive timeout issues trying to
access my shares.
Troubleshooting showed error messages in /var/log/samba/log.HOSTNAME
coming up in 2s intervals:

[...]
Failed to connect to socket /tmp/fam-root-
[2006/11/27 17:15:43, 0] smbd/notify_fam.c:fam_check_reconnect(136)

[2006/11/27 17:15:45, 0] smbd/notify_fam.c:fam_check_reconnect(136)
failed to connect to FAM service
[...]

Adding "fam change notify = yes" to the global section of smb.conf
solved the issue. As I don't have FAM but GAMIN (as required by KDE)
installed, I suspect here some kind of incompatibility, which shouldn't
make it to etch (hence the severity).

My suggestion would be to have FAM notification off by default, and
solve the underlying issue after etch release, should time be short.

Thanks, Eric

[Eric Lavarde]

Package: gimp
Version: 2.2.3-2
Severity: normal


Hi,

I'm not sure it's a GIMP problem, it might be an ImageMagick problem,
but as GIMP seems to be the only program which has problems with images
generated by ImageMagick, I try it here first, feel free to reassign.

So, to the problem, when I crop an image with 'display', it appears with
an offset in GIMP (the layer is shifted relative to the image). I'd say
that the offset is the same as the cropped portion of the original
picture. It can go as far as that I get a warning from gimp saying that
"the PNG file specifies an offset that caused the layer to be positioned
outside the image".
If I edit the image, e.g. in kpaint, the problem disappears in GIMP.

I attach an example of such an image.

Thanks, Eric

Bug#289307: pwc-source headed for unstable this weekend

[Eric Lavarde]

Hi,
I confirm that the pwc driver works well.
Only at boot time, I have the following messages:

i've been using this new pwc driver for a while now and have not had
any problems with it, tested on i386 and amd64 boxen.  

so, after looking over the latest version, assuming there are no

i don't think this really warrants a cool off period in experimental,
but if someone has a reasonable objection then i will put it there instead.
i'll probably do this on saturday.
quoth teemu:
Since this package claims to be GPL (although there might be issues with the
reverse engineering which this code is based on) is there any reason not to
integrate this code into the kernel-source package and have the pwc.ko
module compiled automatically to kernel-packages?
The kernel-package-2.6.10-1-686 package already contains several usb-webcam
drivers in the /drivers/usb/media/ directory which are approximately the
same size as pwc.ko.

i suppose it could be added to the debianized kernel source package,
but since the original author asked to have it yanked from the mainline
kernel and it is now itself forked and maintained outside of the kernel,
i think this approach makes the most sense.  at least for the time being.

Bug#288431: jpilot-backup: Databases with names containing non-ASCII characters are not properly handled.

[Eric Lavarde]

Hi,
bingo, I actually have 5 databases with non-ASCII characters:
~/.jpilot/backup$ ls -1 | cat -v | grep M-
AdressenM-dnderung.pdb
BM-|cher.pdb
DM-ipartements franM-gais.pdb
MaM-qanaDB.pdb
MaM-qana.prc
and 5 empty lines in jpilot-backup (and none of the listed databases 
does appear).

Seems to be the problem. Just need to fix it now! ;-)

Bug#290749: freemind: unable to enter german Umlauts even when locale is set to de

[Eric Lavarde]

Hi Bastian,
your locale is C, which means ASCII charset, hence no accents, umlauts 
and fancy stuff. Export LANG=de_DE, or [EMAIL PROTECTED], or 
LANG=de_DE.UTF-8, before starting FreeMind and you'll be able to enter 
Umlauts and the same. You can create a file freemindrc with e.g. "export 
LANG=de_DE.UTF-8" in /etc/freemind or ~/.freemind (see 'man freemind') 
if you don't want to change your LANG variable for other applications 
(but you should have similar problems with other applications).

If you don't complain too loud, I'll close this bug in the near future 
without further action.

MfG, Eric

Bug#291015: mime-support: runâmailcap to understand URL notation and start sensible-browser if required.

[Eric Lavarde]

Package: mime-support
Version: 3.28-1
Severity: wishlist


Hi,

more and more utilities use URL notation to pass around file names,
hence it would be very useful to have run-mailcap understand URL and do one of
two things:
- handle file:/... URL as normal files.
- pass along other kinds of URL (http://, ftp://, etc...) to
  sensible-browser.
This could be possibly controlled by a switch (e.g. --allow-url) for security
reasons.

I know that writing a wrapper-script to do this is pretty easy, but as
it might be of general interest, I thought it better to be directly in
mime-support.

Thanks, Eric

Bug#298525: fop should depend on libxerces2-java instead of libxerces-java.

[Eric Lavarde]

Package: fop
Severity: normal


Hi,

the current version of fop depends on libxerces-java, whereas the
release notes of fop 0.20.5 (on their homepage
http://xml.apache.org/fop/relnotes.html) are saying that "The following
JARs have been updated: Xerces to version 2.2.1, Xalan to version 2.4.1
and Batik to version 1.5beta4."
Moreover libxalan2-java is depending on libxerces2-java so that
basically the two versions of Xerces are required by fop.

Also, but I'm not a java programmer, I don't know if there is a notion
of 'linking against', when I try to use fop as drop-in replacement while
packaging freemind, I get errors. Might be related or not, as I said,
but I'd like to be sure before digging deeper into the problem (hence
the problem is not minor to me).

Thanks, Eric

Bug#296118: RFP: libjcalendar-java -- Java date chooser bean for graphically picking a date

[Eric Lavarde]

Package: wnpp
Severity: wishlist


* Package name: libjcalendar-java
  Version : 1.2.2
  Upstream Author : Kai Toedter <[EMAIL PROTECTED]>
* URL : http://www.toedter.com/en/jcalendar/
* License : LGPL
  Description : Java date chooser bean for graphically picking a date

 JCalendar is composed of several other Java beans, a JDayChooser, a
 JMonthChooser and a JYearChooser. All these beans have a locale
 property, provide several icons (Color 16x16, Color 32x32, Mono 16x16
 and Mono 32x32) and their own locale property editor. So they can easily
 be used in GUI builders.

(I need this package to be able to package freemind version 0.8.0).

Thanks, Eric

  Description : open source implementation of JAXB, the specification for

>From the home page:
..
 A Java/XML binding compiler takes as input a schema description (in most
 cases an XML schema but it may be a DTD, a RelaxNG schema, a Java class
 inspected via reflection or a database schema). The output is a set of
 Java classes:
..
* A Java bean class compatible with the schema description. (If the
* schema was obtained via Java reflection, then the original Java
* bean class.)
* An unmarshaller that converts a conforming XML document into the
* equivalent Java bean.
* Vice versa, a marshaller that converts the Java bean back into the
* original XML document.
..
 In the case of JaxMe, the generated classes may also
..
* Store the Java bean into a database. Preferrably an XML database
* like eXist, Xindice, or Tamino, but it may also be a relational
* database like MySQL. (If the schema is sufficiently simple. :-)
* Query the database for bean instances.
* Implement an EJB entity or session bean with the same abilities.

(to be very honest with you, it's a bit chinese to me, I only know that
I need the library to be able to package freemind 0.8.0)

Hi,

I exactly have the same behavior as previously reported but in the
mailnews component, i.e. if I have a link in a message
middle-mouse-button click doesn't do anything though I'm sure it used to
work, and it still works in the browser component (also when I'm
browsing a local directory, strangely enough).

I can still right-click -> pop-up menu -> open link in new tab, but it's
a pain in the a. A solution would be nice!

Concerning the License, I was not sure, so asked upstream and got the
following answer (with my question quoted):

It's a mixture of the apache license and the MIT license. The most of
the code is under the MIT license (see license.txt in the bundle), and a
small portion of it is under the apache license (see
Apache-LICENSE-1.1.txt)

I hope this won't make your life too hard. There are too many licenses
in the world!

So true ;-)

Thanks in advance,

Hi,

in some man pages (e.g. ImageMagick), the dashes and single quotes are
not really what they look like, but some other unicode letter.
This has two major drawbacks:
- search for options become nearly impossible (try searching for -m,
  without using -).
- cut&paste doesn't work.
(this has also the drawback that not all fonts have the said characters,
but that's all right)

Problem appears especially with UTF-8 charset, it's somehow addressed in
/etc/groff/man.local but should be properly fixed as well.
Asking on debian-devel, this seems to be the thing to do:

Thanks, Eric

Bug#297133: debhelper: dh_installmime man page should use "real" dash for package names.

[Eric Lavarde]

Package: debhelper
Version: 4.2.30

Hi,

the dh_installmime man page contains "mimeâsupport and sharedâmimeâinfo"
with some unicode dash characters. This should be real dashes so that
cut&paste properly works with a unicode charset.

Bug#297133: debhelper: dh_installmime man page should use "real" dash for package names.

[Eric Lavarde]

Hi,
and if you use C<> or F<> around the package names, doesn't it solve the 
problem? I say this because the options (-n, --noscripts) have the 
correct dashes, and it would make sense to _not_ beautify code and 
filenames.

Eric
PS: else, feel of course free to forward the bug to the perl team.

This is a bug in the manpages themselves.  The unformatted source
should have - for hyphenating normal prose, as in "happy-go-lucky", and \-
to denote the minus signs used as characters on the command line and
other such places.

I don't know of any way to do that with man pages that are generated
from POD documentation, as are all the man pages in debhelper. As far as
I can see, this is a bug in perl.

Bug#409935: icedove: Icedove sometimes forgets default application to open attachements.

[Eric Lavarde]

Package: icedove
Version: 1.5.0.9.dfsg1-1
Severity: normal


Hello,

it's already a rather old issue, but I couldn't find a corresponding
report, and it's slowly getting on my nerves.

Sometimes, rather often 20/30% of the cases, when I double-click on an
attachement, icedove opens a dialog saying something like
You have chosen to open

which is a: 
[...]
Open with: [Browse...]

i.e. icedove seems to have forgotten about the correct application to
use. If I close the dialog and double-click again on the attachment,
icedove still doesn't know about the correct application, but if I close
the dialog, click somewhere else in the message and _then_ double-click
on the attachement, icedove generally remembers the application to use.
Sometimes, seldom, I have to switch message and come back to the first
message before Icedove remembers the correct application.

It's quite annoying and time consuming. Just tell me if I can
troubleshoot something.

Thanks, Eric

Bug#410027: madwifi-source: Madwifi (or kernel) fails to respect wifi light on nc6000

[Eric Lavarde]

Package: madwifi-source
Version: 1:0.9.2+r1842.20061207-2
Severity: minor


Hello,

with newer versions of the kernel and madwifi driver, the LED on my HP
nc6000 is on even if the wifi has been shutoff (with the corresponding
button on the laptop); this behavior didn't happen earlier and the LED
was off when the wifi was off, and on with the wifi on.
To be clear the button on the laptop doesn't deactivate the WLAN device
but does only deactivate the antenna (though it deactivates as well the
complete bluetooth device).

The issue appeared somewhere between madwifi-modules-2.6.16-2-686
0.svnr1644.0.9.0-2+2.6.16-17 and madwifi-modules-2.6.18-3-686
0.9.2+r1842.20061207-2+2.6.18-7, so that I don't know if it's due to the
kernel or the madwifi driver. But I need to start somewhere, don't I?

The bug is quite annoying because I have no easy way beside dmesg
(checking for the bluetooth device) to know if the wifi is on or off.
I would be already grateful for a way to properly find the culprit.

Thanks, Eric

Bug#416094: switchconf: Allow for alternative configuration methods using cp instead of ln.

[Eric Lavarde]

Package: switchconf
Version: 0.0.5.1-1
Severity: wishlist
Tags: patch


Hello,

as I've started to use switchconf in order to configure a chroot environment,
using ln to apply configurations doesn't work for me. So I created the attached
patch, adding effectively a new option to /etc/switchconf/conf:

# defines how to copy files to their configuration place. 'softlink' is the
# default value, 'copy' is an alternative possibility.
config_method=copy

I made the patch such that it doesn't make any difference for people not
changing their config file. Hope you can include it in a next version of
switchconf.

I might in the future try to find a way to decide on copy vs. link for each file
individually, but it's 2nd priority for me, so it might never come.

Cheers, Eric

Bug#416095: switchconf: Allow for boot time configuration switch using kernel options.

[Eric Lavarde]

Package: switchconf
Version: 0.0.5.1-1
Severity: wishlist
Tags: patch


Hello again,

I've developed a small init script for switchconf which allows to switch the
configuration at boot time. In order to do this you just need to add a kernel
option 'switchconf=', e.g. to lilo.conf or grub's menu.lst; and the init
script will call switchconf with  as parameter.

As an example, I have now the following in /boot/grub/menu.lst:

title   Debian GNU/Linux, kernel 2.6.18-4-686 (WORK)
root(hd0,4)
kernel  /boot/vmlinuz-2.6.18-4-686 root=/dev/hda5 ro switchconf=work
initrd  /boot/initrd.img-2.6.18-4-686
savedefault

title   Debian GNU/Linux, kernel 2.6.18-4-686 (HOME)
root(hd0,4)
kernel  /boot/vmlinuz-2.6.18-4-686 root=/dev/hda5 ro switchconf=home
initrd  /boot/initrd.img-2.6.18-4-686
savedefault

The switchconf file shall be installed as /etc/init.d/switchconf and linked to
/etc/rcS.d/S37switchconf. I chose 37 because it's just after 36 ;-) and 36 is
the level where the local file systems are mounted, i.e. there is no risk that
switchconf tries to install files to non-mounted file systems, and you can still
manipulate the network configuration.

Cheers, Eric

[Eric Lavarde]

Hi,

Hi,

I don't consider this to be normal: I use Linux for work, I almost always
save on FAT because I need to have dual-boot with Windows.
And this is currently seriously impacting my productivity, as I never know
if what I'm saving will have size 0 or "only" change its name.
I also don't think that this is such an exotic setup, lots of people have
dual-boot Windows/Linux with a shared partition formatted with FAT.
As for loss of data: if I download something with size 0 and go travelling
(it's my laptop), and find out that I don't have the data I need
available, I consider this as being data loss, especially if it appears in
front of the customer.


You may consider this to be data loss, but it isn't. Data loss implies
you lost something, ie you were in possession of something and then
lost it. If downloading fails you never had it to begin with. 

I would agree if downloading would fail non-silently, then it would be
an annoyance. But if you download a presentation, go to the customer and
find out there that you don't have it, you've possibly lost something,
namely your job (especially if the company you work tolerates but
doesn't support Linux).

 

I don't want to start a severity-setting-war, but I would greatly
appreciate to have the severity of this issue set higher (even better
would be to have it fixed quickly :-> ).


Well the severity is not a stick to get things fixed more quickly. The
best question to ask yourself is should this bug prevent Iceweasel
from being part of the release? If you think that it should then your
priorities are a bit out of whack. 

I do think so, I have to work daily with this bug and it's
download-check size->0-rename, download-check size-=0-redownload
somewhere else-move, download-check size->0-rename, download-wonder why
file is empty-redownload... My efficiency is going out of whack, not my
judgement. As we have a web based Content Mgmt system, and I do download
90% of the times to FAT, I'm probably hit by this 10 to 20 times a day.
Can you imagine that I don't consider this a minor one?

Thanks for your understanding,
Eric

Bug#414305: cdbs: Call of 'ant clean' happens _after_ patch removal

[Eric Lavarde]

Package: cdbs
Version: 0.4.48
Severity: normal


Hi,

the ant class is built in such a way that 'ant clean' (or whatever the
clean target actually is) is called after the patches are unapplied,
leading to the issue that ant clean fails (I have to patch quite heavily
the build.xml to make it work _at all_ under Debian).
Looking through ./class/makefile.mk, I see that the call to 'make -k
clean' is put before the actual clean: target; I truly think that it
should be the same way for ant.

The workaround is to have something like the following in debian/rules:

clean:: buildxml-clean

include /usr/share/cdbs/1/rules/debhelper.mk
include /usr/share/cdbs/1/class/ant.mk
include /usr/share/cdbs/1/rules/simple-patchsys.mk

[...]

buildxml-clean::

Bug#414865: popularity-contest: popcon-largest-unused should have option to report only on orphans

[Eric Lavarde]

Package: popularity-contest
Version: 1.40
Severity: wishlist


Hi,

I've recently installed popularity-contest and I find the idea of using
popcon-largest-unused in order to trim down my packages attractive.
Nevertheless it would be much more useful if there would be an option to
only report on packages required/recommended/suggested by no others
(optionally: unless they are themselves unused and don't depend on other
packages; this becomes a recursive story).

Thanks, Eric

Bug#240423: aptitude: Policy overview important for package developers

[Eric Lavarde]

Package: aptitude
Version: 0.4.4-1
Followup-For: Bug #240423


Hi,

I'd like to second this request: I find the apt-cache policy command
very handy to check impact of adding a new package. I happily
experimental, unstable, testing and my own repositories, and often use
apt-cache policy to check which package I'll actually get if I update/install 
a certain one.
And I happen to like the way it's presented, clear, no fuss. And the
"policy" option is still free for aptitude :-)

Thanks, Eric

Bug#333164: libasm-java: Is there still work done on libasm2-java?

[Eric Lavarde]

Package: libasm-java
Version: 1.5.3-4
Followup-For: Bug #333164


Hello,

I'm currently looking at taking over groovy, because I need it for
FreeMind 0.9.0; but FreeMind needs Groovy 1.0, and Groovy 1.0 is requiring
the version 2.2 of ASM in order to compile. I like those cascading
dependencies :->

So, is still someone working on libasm2-java (if possible 2.2)? The
message that it should come in the next future is almost 2 years old...

Thanks, Eric

Bug#407023: iceweasel: Iceweasel not handling properly FAT filesystems while saving.

[Eric Lavarde]

Package: iceweasel
Version: 2.0.0.1+dfsg-2
Followup-For: Bug #407023


Hello,

I've got both issues described here:
http://eric.lavar.de/comp/linux/rpm/alsa/alsaconf-0.4.5b-1.src.rpm
gets saved as alsaconf-0.4.5b-1.src.rpm.rpm
http://eric.lavar.de/comp/linux/asb/asb-4.0.tar.gz
gets saved as asb-4.0.tar.gz but with 0 content, in the same FAT32
directory. No issue when saving to ext3 file system, problem didn't
exist with version 1.5, it's really recent.

One more information: if trying to overwrite the files by downloading
them again, the first one (alsaconf) doesn't get overwritten but a new
version is created (alsaconf-0.4.5b-1.src.rpm(2).rpm) without asking
back from Iceweasel. For the 2nd file (asb), Iceweasel asks back before
overwriting (but still with size 0).

I don't consider this bug to be normal, it's critical as there is a
clear possibility for data loss.

Thanks, Eric

Bug#325591: linda: Linda still fails in Check MenuCheck with Exception KeyError

[Eric Lavarde]

Package: linda
Version: 0.3.24
Followup-For: Bug #325591


Hi,

the error is supposed to be fixed in 0.3.17, but it seems there has been
a regression. With the below menu file, I get the error:

Check MenuCheck failed. Exception KeyError thrown ('command').

The menu file:

?package(netlock):needs="x11" section="Apps/Net" \
icon="/usr/share/pixmaps/netlock.xpm" title="Netlock"
?package(netlock):needs="x11" section="Apps/Net/Netlock" \
icon="/usr/share/pixmaps/netlock.xpm" title="Extranet Access Client" \
command="sensible-browser http://127.0.0.1:9161/";
?package(netlock):needs="x11" section="Apps/Net/Netlock" \
title="About Netlock..." \
command="sensible-browser http://127.0.0.1:9161/about.html";
?package(netlock):needs="x11" section="Apps/Net/Netlock" \
title="Preferences" \
command="sensible-browser http://127.0.0.1:9161/prefs.html";

It is to be noted that linda also complains the non-existing
sensible-browser command. I've seen similar reports (for other generic
commands like killall), and I think that there should be a clarification
of which commands are allowed in a menu and which not.
The best would be any command in a "base" package or in a package on
which the package depends is acceptable, but that's perhaps difficult to
implement.
(this said I don't know if both problems are related)

Cheers, Eric

Bug#391459: linux-image-2.6.17-2-686: 8250/serial port not usable, ttyS0: LSR safety check engaged! message

[Eric Lavarde]

Package: linux-image-2.6.17-2-686
Version: 2.6.17-9
Severity: important


Hi,

I've seen different bugs related to serial ports and the 8250 driver but
not exactly like mine, so here you get a new report (can it be that the
driver is pretty broken in the 2.6.17 kernel? :-> ).

Anyway, even though everything seems pretty OK (modules loaded, device
files present, kernel recognizes the port), I'm not able anymore to sync
with jpilot on /dev/ttyS0 under kernel 2.6.17 (I tested it: it still works
perfectly under kernel 2.6.16-18), telling me that:
pi_bind error: /dev/ttyS0 No such device
Check your serial port and settings
Exiting with status SYNC_ERROR_BIND
I get similar errors using pilot-link tools, and each time I try to access the
serial port, I get a new "ttyS0: LSR safety check engaged!" message in
dmesg.
I set the bug to important because I will have to rollback to 2.6.16;
without ability to sync PC and Palm, I can't really work.

I put some more info below, don't hesitate to tell me if you need more.

Thanks for your help, have a nice week-end,
Eric

Bug#248868: kde: Anti-aliasing is on but sub-pixel hinting is off (resolution)

[Eric Lavarde]

Package: kde
Version: 5:47
Followup-For: Bug #248868


Hi,

perhaps for people finding this bug report and agreeing with the fact
that fonts have been uglified with the recent kde updates.
The issue is not anti-aliasing per se but that sub-pixel hinting as been put
off per default.
You can put it back on with KDE -> Control Center -> Appearance
& Themes -> Fonts -> Configure... (next to "use anti-aliasing for fonts").

For sake of my own understanding: I remember vaguely that this sub-pixel
hinting was documented as part of the xserver-xfree86 configuration
(asking for LCD vs. CRT), but seems to have disappeared from
xserver-xorg. Is it the same thing? And wouldn't it make sense to have
sub-pixel hinting on per default, as I would expect most people to have
now an LCD screen!?

Thanks, Eric

Hi,

when trying to remove mt-st, I get the following message:

Consecutive calls to 'dpkg --purge' gets the same error and no more

Looking at /var/lib/dpkg/info/mt-st.postrm, I think it's due to:

if [ "$1" = purge ]; then
[ -L /etc/udev/rules.d/z60_mt-st.rules ] && \
rm /etc/udev/rules.d/z60_mt-st.rules
fi

if the file isn't a link or doesn't exist, the script returns with an
error code. With a proper 'if' statement, the problem should occur.

Bug#382482: kde: Alt+Tab stops working after a while.

[Eric Lavarde]

Package: kde
Version: 5:47
Severity: important


Hi,

I've started to use again KDE since two days (i.e. the problem was not
there some months ago, but I don't know exactly when it appeared), and
now I have the problem that Alt-Tab stops working after a while.
My .xsession-errors is full of cryptic (for me) messages, and I didn't yet
find a relation with an action taken.

I would appreciate some help, I never realized how much I'm relying on
Alt-Tab to move between apps.

Thanks, Eric

Bug#393208: xmoto stops with segmentation fault message

[Eric Lavarde]

Package: xmoto
Version: 0.2.2-1
Severity: important


Hi,

I tried xmoto but it quits all the time with a segmentation fault, the
screen flickers shortly and that's it:

$ xmoto -v -debug
** Warning ** : impossible to set value of unknown configuration
variable 'JoyButtonFlipLeft1'
** Warning ** : impossible to set value of unknown configuration
variable 'JoyButtonFlipRight1'
Segmentation fault

-cleancache didn't help, -h works (i.e. no graphics), emptying
..xmoto/LCache didn't help either. Moving away ~/.xmoto didn't help much
either:

$ mv .xmoto/ .xmoto.BAK
$ xmoto -v -debug
** Warning ** : failed to load or parse user configuration 'config.dat'
Segmentation fault

~.xmoto/xmoto.log doesn't contain more information.

What do you want me to try to do to give you more info?

Cheers, Eric

Bug#735892: libknopflerfish-osgi-framework-java: doesn't depend on default-jre and enforces installation of version 6 openjdk

[Eric Lavarde]

Package: libknopflerfish-osgi-framework-java
Version: 2.3.3-2
Severity: normal

Hi,

as the subject says, the package doesn't depend on default-jre which
leads to installation to openjdk-6-jre in addition to the version 7 that
is already installed.

One could argue that it's a wish rather than a bug, but given that we
want to get rid of openjdk6 for the next release of Debian, I allowed
myself to log this report as a normal bug.

Cheers, Eric

As former maintainer of the Freeplane/FreeMind packages, let me jump in

problem is due to Java and its environment, or to FreeMind/Freeplane.


Hope this helps,

Bug#726879: jedit: depends solely on virtual packages (javaX-runtime)

[Eric Lavarde]

Package: jedit
Version: 5.0.0+dfsg-3
Severity: normal

Hi,

I just noticed that jedit depends only on "java7-runtime | java6-runtime",
which are both virtual packages.

It is allegedly a breach of policy, I've been told but the only place I
could find is chapter 7.4:
To specify which of a set of real packages should be the default
to satisfy a particular dependency on a virtual package, list the
real package as an alternative before the virtual one.

Anyway, from a practical standpoint, it means that a user trying to
install this package without having yet the dependency resolved, will
get a question about which package he wants to install to resolve the
"virtual dependency", and it's a question normal/dumb/simple users don't
know how to answer (and don't need to).

This dependency in the control file would simply solve the issue:
Depends: default-jre | java7-runtime | java6-runtime

Cheers, Eric

Bug#714524: [freeplane] Keystrokes no longer recognised during use

[Eric Lavarde]

Hi,

as written on another thread, it would be good to know if you can 
reproduce the issue with another Java application like jedit (packaged 
in Debian).

This way we would know if it's a Java or Freeplane/FreeMind issue.

Cheers, Eric

Bug#681691: os-prober relies on grub-mount which fails silently on missing fuse module

[Eric Lavarde]

Package: os-prober
Version: 1.58
Followup-For: Bug #681691

Hello,

there was no reaction on this bug which actually makes my life miserable each
time there is a kernel update, because I need to mount all relevant partitions
by hand.

Anyway, I looked a bit more about it and found the following:

1. os-prober calls "/usr/lib/os-prober/newns /usr/bin/os-prober" which itself
   calls "/usr/lib/os-probes/50mounted-tests /dev/sda2" (for example).
2. 50mounted-tests relies itself on grub-mount to mount the partition.
3. The call to grub-mount looks as such:

mounted=
if type grub-mount >/dev/null 2>&1 && \
   type grub-probe >/dev/null 2>&1 && \
   grub-mount "$partition" "$tmpmnt" 2>/dev/null; then
mounted=1

4. Calling grub-mount gives then the following error:

# grub-mount /dev/sda2 /mnt
fuse: device not found, try 'modprobe fuse' first
# echo $?
0
# modprobe fuse
FATAL: Module fuse not found.

i.e. we have multiple errors combined to make a big mess:
a. grub-mount relies on a fuse module which doesn't exist (by default).
b. it fails with an error message but a successful return code.
c. 50mounted-tests thinks that the command is successful (and hides
   the error message which could have been helpful).

Conclusion, I think this bug should be duplicated, once to fix grub-mount
resp. grub-common package, once to fix os-prober (at least to improve error
handling, at best to stop using grub-mount). I'd be more than happy to
read your opinion.

Thanks, Eric

Small correction: the fuse module does (of course, stupid me) exist per 
default, but points b and c remain valid, failure must be properly handled.

Bug#729742: blinken: Fails to produce sounds

[Eric Lavarde]

Package: blinken
Version: 4:4.8.4-1
Severity: important

Hi,

I just installed blinken for my daughter and it mostly doesn't produce
sounds. When I press one of the four buttons, it generally remains
silent, but sometimes it produces half a sound (like it would start a
sound but then it's cut in the middle).

I didn't really find any hint on where the problem might lie, but here
some info:

1. Started from the console, the only output is:
[0x11462a8] main services discovery error: no suitable services discovery module

2. ~/.xsession-errors doesn't contain anything suspicious (just the
start of blinken is registered).

3. Blinken is the only application impacted, everything else works (e.g.
Skype).

4. Testing sound in the KDE Audio Setup / Phonon KDE Controle Module
works as well.

5. I am the opinion that on the same machine, but with Debian 32 bits,
the sound did work (but it's already a while ago that I reinstalled in
64 bits).

Let me know if I can do something to help find the issue.

Bug#731041: plasma-widgets-workspace: device notifier reacts to inserted removable medias only after action on it.

[Eric Lavarde]

Package: plasma-widgets-workspace
Version: 4:4.10.5-3
Severity: normal

Hi,

I apologize for the clumsy subject, but I didn't know how to summarize
the issue properly. Here is what happens anyway:

1. I plug a removable media (SD-card, Android phone as mass storage, no
difference).
2. The device notifier doesn't show it in its list (dmesg shows it
though).
3. if I call 'file -s /dev/sdi' then device notifier shows the media at
once (file without -s doesn't do the trick, no clue what it makes for a
difference to KDE), and I can mount it at a click of a mouse.
4. If I unplug and replug the device, it then _generally_ works as
expected and KDE recognizes the device without help.

I hope you can fix this, because the workaround is not exactly something
I can explain to my users (wife, daughter...). Let me know if you need
more information, the problem is repeatable.

Thanks, Eric

Other users: yes. New user, no, but I'll do together with the below tests and

That's the point, everything outside of KDE (dmesg, pmount) looks the same as 
before to me, only KDE behaves strange. And GIMF as well 😊

Anyway, thanks for caring,

Hello,

I did the tests and that was interesting:

- did you try this using different users accounts? (special bonus if

in a newly created one).

Other users: yes. New user, no, but I'll do together with the below tests and 
come back to you.

Other (new) user: exactly same behavior.


- run "udisksctl monitor" and then plug one of the devices you
mentioned in
your bug. Please attach the output.
That was the interesting bit: I did this, and udisksctl showed the same 
behaviour: the SD-card "appeared" only after I had executed file -s on 
it (though it would appear in dmesg), and the same thing for 
disappearing by the way (which I didn't notice before).
Output is attached as udisksctl.monitor.log and contains also my 
comments in the form "=== COMMENT ===" so that you have the correct time 
sequence of events.


Interestingly enough, I tried a few more things with 2 USB sticks 
(captured in udisksctl.stick.monitor.log):

- a USB3/partitioned with FAT and ext4 stick behaves normally.
- a USB2/ISO partitioned stick doesn't appear at all in KDE, even when 
using the magic 'file -s' command.



- send the output of "dpkg -l udisks2"

Please note that I'm just asking the normal questions as I could find
for this
issue on the web, I'm not familiar with how KDE does handle this
things.

That's the point, everything outside of KDE (dmesg, pmount) looks the same as 
before to me, only KDE behaves strange. And GIMF as well 😊
OK, now I'm a bit confused, if it's a udisks2 or KDE issue, or some of 
both... It could be related to 
http://bugs.debian.org/cgi-bin/bugreport.cgi?bug=725978 which shows a 
very similar behavior. The kernel parameter given at the end helps 
indeed, but the USB stick with ISO filesystem still doesn't appear. 
Perhaps two different issues, but no time left for further tests, I'll 
come back later.


Any further idea welcome,

Bug#698164: mandate unique package names in Debian Java policy

[Eric Lavarde]

Hello,

On 14/01/13 19:48, Daniel Pocock wrote:

A few projects exist without following this convention, and sooner or
later somebody may try to package one of them.

According to the Java Language Specification, using a domain name is a
"suggested convention" and not a mandatory obligation.  Nonetheless, in
an environment such as Debian where we have to keep many different
packages concurrently on a single system, I would contend that we should
mandate the use of this "suggestion"
http://docs.oracle.com/javase/specs/jls/se7/html/jls-6.html#d5e6504


The package domain is a decision of upstream, not of the packager, hence 
I don't think that such recommendation has its place in the Java policy:

1. it doesn't create any collision in terms of packaging
2. it might create collision in terms of using two such libraries BUT
	a. developers using two such libraries have to cope with this issue 
also outside of Debian anyway
	b. and in terms of portability, any developer using one of both 
libraries would thank us (irony!) if we'd change the package name as it 
would force them to change their import statements only for Debian


This said, we can put a suggestion in the Java Policy to influence 
upstream to fix their package naming convention, but:
A. it's the same as for any other upstream "bug", so why document the 
obvious?
B. I doubt that such a badly named package would be of enough interest / 
quality for Debian packaging (but I might be wrong, I don't know any 
example)


Conclusion: I vote against + close the bug.

Cheers, Eric

Bug#691367: xsane: E-mail is sent with incorrect charset

[Eric Lavarde]

Package: xsane
Version: 0.998-3+b1
Severity: normal

Hello,

the email option seems to send all emails with charset="iso-8859-1"
even if the environment is using something else, in my case UTF-8.
The result is that all accentued characters are garbage at arrival,
which is quite ugly.

Thanks, Eric

Hi,

if I try to sort my entries by "last update", they are somewhat sorted
following a certain logic related to the date but it's neither
increasing nor decreasing (see attached snapshot).
I made a blunder and modified 2 copies of the same file, so I'm trying
to find out where I did my changes and this bug is making it very
complicated.

Nah, they are different.  Suspend to disk happens with ACPI
cooperation.

[...]

Let me know if I can test / do anything further to solve the issue,


It's possible your machine only supports wake from S4 and not S5, in
which case the best bet would be to get your (out-of-tree?) driver
to suspend to disk sanely.  By the way, has there been any effort to
get that out-of-tree driver merged upstream?  Please file a bug
describing the missing functionality it provides, and I can try
working on that.

All that said, I see no reason _in principle_ that a machine that can
wake from S4 should not be able to wake from S5.  It might be possible
to debug this as an ACPI or RTC issue.  Please test 3.2-rc7 from
experimental without any out-of-tree drivers, and provide:

  i.  full "dmesg" output from booting, setting the wakeup timer,
  hibernating with "echo disk>/sys/power/state", and waking up

  ii. information about what happens if you instead boot, set the wakeup
  time, shutdown with "shutdown -h now", and wake up
Done (see attached files from an xterm -l logfile + the script used) - 
in the 2nd case it doesn't wake up, so that's easy...




Also, when you set the wakeup timer, is it visible from the CMOS menus?
If it is, that might help in comparing what happens in cases (i)
and (ii).
With "CMOS menus" you mean the BIOS? If yes, then it doesn't appear, I 
only see what I enter in the BIOS. Perhaps interesting: if I do a 'cat 
/proc/driver/rtc' after a reboot (i.e. before having entered myself a 
time), I see what I entered manually in the BIOS under alrm_time and

alrm_date:

rtc_time: 07:39:05
rtc_date: 2012-01-17
alrm_time   : 18:15:00
alrm_date   : 2012-01-17
alarm_IRQ   : yes
alrm_pending: no
update IRQ enabled  : no
periodic IRQ enabled: no
periodic IRQ frequency  : 1024
max user IRQ frequency  : 64
24hr: yes
periodic_IRQ: no
update_IRQ  : no
HPET_emulated   : yes
BCD : yes
DST_enable  : no
periodic_freq   : 1024
batt_status : okay

If I read the rtc after resume from suspend, I see the time I had 
entered from the command line before the suspend:


rtc_time: 07:53:29
rtc_date: 2012-01-17
alrm_time   : 07:52:21
alrm_date   : 2012-01-17
alarm_IRQ   : yes
alrm_pending: no
update IRQ enabled  : no
periodic IRQ enabled: no
periodic IRQ frequency  : 1024
max user IRQ frequency  : 64
24hr: yes
periodic_IRQ: no
update_IRQ  : no
HPET_emulated   : yes
BCD : yes
DST_enable  : no
periodic_freq   : 1024
batt_status : okay

Could it be that the BIOS overwrites my command line entry at shutdown 
time, but not at suspend time? I have the impression that the BIOS has 2 
places with wake-up time: A for the configuration itself (what has been 
entered in the BIOS by the user, me, and is visible in the BIOS GUI) and 
B to actually get the PC to wake-up, and it copies A to B at shutdown 
time...


What do you think? Am I f* up?



Thanks,
Jonathan

Sure, I can believe that.  It's also possible that when you try to
enter S5, something goes wrong and the machine ends up powering
off completely and then the BIOS writes to the RTC at bootup.

Here's an experiment to try:

echo shutdown>/sys/power/disk
echo disk>/sys/power/state

It performs a suspend-to-disk but enters S5 instead of S4.
Bingo! The PC doesn't come back up after this, so it's a difference 
between S4 and S5.
Stupid question: do you know if it would be possible to shutdown (going 
through init and all this) into S4?




After that: maybe RTC or ACPI folks can help (see the MAINTAINERS
file[1], and please cc me or this bug log if contacting them so we can
track it).  But I'd be more inclined to work on getting

Will do. Thanks a lot for your help so far!


suspend-to-disk working without unloading the media capture driver
first.
I will also follow-up on this, fine with me, but I'm more a friend of 
clean shutdowns :-) so it'll be either as fallback strategy or for the 
community.

Bug#666742: xineliboutput-sxfe: vdr-sxfe fails on looking big images with xineliboutput plugin

[Eric Lavarde]

Package: xineliboutput-sxfe
Version: 1.0.7+cvs20120609.1902-1
Followup-For: Bug #666742

Hi,

sorry for the time taking to answer but it's a live system, so difficult to
find the right time between me being awake, not at work, and nobody wanting
to look TV for long enough ;-)

Anyway, I updated my system and the problem is still there... I attach some
more logs (also a vdr-err log I found in my /tmp directory) but I didn't notice
anything significantly different from my last logs.

Could it be that it has to do with my xine configuration and used filters
or something like this?!

Thanks, Eric

Bug#659655: xineliboutput-sxfe: vdr-sxfe segfaults error 4 in xineplug_inp_xvdr.so since upgrade to libxine2

[Eric Lavarde]

Package: xineliboutput-sxfe
Version: 1.0.7+cvs20120130.2334-2
Severity: grave
Justification: renders package unusable

Hello,

sorry to block a severity grave but as I can't use my VDR anymore, I think
it's justified.

I've just updated my system (aptitude protocol attached) and since then,
vdr-sxfe is just starting and dropping with a segfault:
[ 3817.674930] vdr-sxfe[6098]: segfault at 8 ip 7f1285ce3f36 sp 
7f1287ffebd0 error 4 in xineplug_inp_xvdr.so[7f1285ccf000+25000]

I've also attached the log of the following call from the command line:

$ DISPLAY=:0 vdr-sxfe --silent --post 
tvtime:method=Linear,cheap_mode=1,pulldown=0,use_progressive_frame_flag=1 
--audio=alsa --tcp xvdr+tcp://127.0.0.1:37890 --verbose 2>/tmp/vdr-sxfe.txt 1>&2

Hope you can fix this quickly, I'm currently stuck without TV (more time for
reading you could say, but not sure my daughter will see it like this...).

Thanks, Eric

Bug#660316: libxine2-xvdr: xine cannot find input plugin for MRL xvdr+tcp://127.0.0.1:37890#nocache

[Eric Lavarde]

Package: libxine2-xvdr
Version: 1.0.7+cvs20120214.0259-2
Severity: grave
Justification: renders package unusable

Hello,

Sorry to create again a grave bug, but since the last upgrade (see attached
aptitude log), vdr-sxfe has stopped working (hence I can't see TV or hear
Radio, see other attached log), where I think that the relevant parts are:

xine: cannot find input plugin for MRL [xvdr+tcp://127.0.0.1:37890#nocache]
[3039] [vdr-fe] fe_xine_open: xine_open("xvdr+tcp://127.0.0.1:37890#nocache") 
failed
Error opening xvdr+tcp://127.0.0.1:37890

I use the e-tobi packages but I am currently building a "pure Debian" test
and development environment, and had the same issue there.

Let me know if I can provide more information.
Eric

Bug#660316: Acknowledgement (libxine2-xvdr: xine cannot find input plugin for MRL xvdr+tcp://127.0.0.1:37890#nocache)

[Eric Lavarde]

Hello,

I can confirm that the issue is due to the latest upgrade: downgrading 
back to version 1.0.7+cvs20120130.2334-2 from version 
1.0.7+cvs20120214.0259-2 removed the issue for now (but I can't upgrade...).


Hope this helps, Eric

The libextractor messages in vdr-err look weird - haven't seen these yet

disabling the "Scan for metainfo" option in the xineliboutput settings?

I did it but didn't notice anything special (no change in behavior).
/tmp/vdr-err.xxx contains only one line

thanks

Hello,

I'm getting a bit nervous due to the fact that the wheezy freeze is 
approaching, that I'm still stuck on an outdated kernel (3.1), with all 
the security and supportability implications, and I don't have the 
impression that anything is happening to resolve the issue.


Is there anything I can do to help make this bug disappear before the 
release of wheezy?


As you can guess from the control orders, I've tried "successfully" to 
reproduce the bug on all versions of the kernel I could find.


Thanks, Eric
