Bug#161866: lshell: default limits uselessly low

2002-09-22 Thread William Herrin
Package: lshell
Version: N/A; reported 2002-09-21
Severity: normal

The default limits for lshell v2.01-11 are set for 24 open files and 30
processes. This is not enough for a user to have multiple sessions or
even run a single copy of mozilla.

If the admin doesn't realize lshell is installed, its very difficult
to figure out where these mysterious limits are coming from. You can't even
grep for it; the numbers which appear in "ulimit -a" are abreviated in
/etc/lshell.conf and lshell doesn't make a note of its presence in any
of the standard locations for adjusting system rlimits (e.g.
/etc/limits, /etc/security/limits.conf).

This renders the system effectively unusable if lshell is installed by
mistake (e.g. during an upgrade when you're yessing everything that
comes by).

Suggested fixes: Set the defaults near the normal parameters for a debian
linux system. Tweak system limits.conf with a comment to the effect that
additional control is provided by lshell.conf.

Bug#161867: linuxconf: 2 violations of Debian PAM mini-policy

2002-09-22 Thread Laurent Bonnaud
Package: linuxconf
Version: 1.26r4-2
Severity: normal


Hi,

according to /usr/share/doc/libpam0g/Debian-PAM-MiniPolicy.gz
/etc/pam.d/linuxconf-pair is wrong in 2 respects:

1. it uses a full path to the PAM module (/lib/security/pam_pwdb.so
instead of pam_pwdb.so):

>The file should _not_ reference the full path of the modules. It only needs
>to reference the basename (eg. "pam_unix.so"). This will ensure that the
>program continues to work even if the module location changes, since
>libpam itself will resolve the location.


2. it uses pam_pwdb.so instead of pam_unix.so:

>Under no circumstances should any program in Debian use the pam_pwdb.so
>module by default. Instead the pam_unix.so module should be used. Most
>programs with RedHat support/default files will reference pam_pwdb.so in
>their example files. Do not use this. There are several problems with
>regard to pam_pwdb.so:
>...

Bug#161903: linuxconf: broken dependency on libgd1

2002-09-22 Thread Matthias Weiss
Package: linuxconf
Version: 1.26r4-2

When I invoke:

apt-get install linuxconf

I get:

Reading Package Lists... Done
Building Dependency Tree... Done
Some packages could not be installed. This may mean that you have
requested an impossible situation or if you are using the unstable
distribution that some required packages have not yet been created
or been moved out of Incoming.

Since you only requested a single operation it is extremely likely that
the package is simply not installable and a bug report against
that package should be filed.
The following information may help to resolve the situation:

Sorry, but the following packages have unmet dependencies:
  linuxconf: Depends: libgd1 (>= 1.8.4-7)
  E: Sorry, broken packages

After installing libgd1-xpm manually and and installing linuxconf
with:

dpkg -i --force-depends linuxconf_

the package installed and worked fine.

It seems that something is broken in the virtual package libgd1.

I'm using Debian GNU/Linux unstable.

Bug#161976: dstooltk-doc: /usr/share/doc-base/dstooltk fails to specify a section

2002-09-22 Thread Aaron M. Ucko
Package: dstooltk-doc
Version: 2.0-4
Severity: normal

This omission results in messages from update-menus of the form

In file "/usr/lib/menu/doc-base-dstooltk", at (or in the definition that ends 
at) line 1:
[...]"doc-base" section="" title="DsTool User's Manual"
[...] ^
Missing (or empty) tag: section
This tag needs to defined for the menuentry to make sense.
Note, BTW, that update-menus re-arranges the order of the
tags found in the menu entry files, so that the part above
isn't literal
/etc/menu-methods//gnome-panel: Aborting
Update-menus[22995]: Script /etc/menu-methods//gnome-panel returned error 
status 1.

To fix this, please add "Section: science" to the top stanza of
/usr/share/doc-base/dstooltk.
