[Bug 144069] Re: [apport] package tetex-base failed to install/upgrade:

[LukeKendall]

I'm planning to upgrade from 8.04 to 8.10 on the weekend of 15th, after
giving things a chance to settle down.  I'm still shaking things down
from things like cdrecord device name changes, ATA drive name changes,
etc.

When I do, I'll let you know if the problem has been fixed.

[LukeKendall]

Note also that I reported one other problem - that when samba asked me
to confirm whether to keep my own smb.conf file, I chose the option to
run a shell, and the update manager seemed to block, and no shell window
that I could see was available to do my own diffs (note that a request
for a side-by-side diff just resulted in a plain diff), and with the
update-manager blocked, I had to find the bash that seemed relevant and
kill it.  When I did, update-manager came back to life and reported that
the samba post install shell script had exited unexpectedly, but
strangely, it also reported about 8 other packages failed, from winbind
to wine to ubuntu-desktop (see the attached VarLogDistupgradeMainlog).

Oh, and while worried that the above failure meant that the upgrade was broken, 
I tried running a second one, but it couldn't acquire the lock.  I plan to run 
it again when the dead-looking "Distribution Upgrade" window terminates.
Wish me luck.

[LukeKendall]

Public bug reported:

Binary package hint: update-manager

I was using the system update manager to upgrade from 7.10 to 8.04.  At
the end, it said update manager had failed to install or upgrade and
would I like to report it.  I said okay.

1) I can't tell you much more than that, as since the system is mostly
updated now, lsb_release -rd says:

Description:Ubuntu 8.04.1
Release:8.04

but since I'm running 7.10 and have never booted the 8.04 system with
the upgrades in place, I don't think that's correct information.

I can't scroll back and report errors from the update manager window
which had the Terminal area open, since it seems to have locked up, and
the error windows that popped up over the top of it wiped out the text
that was there.  All I can say is that there was a string of
GTK_CRITICAL **: gtk_widget_destroy: assertion but the rest of the
pixels in the pane have been wiped out by panels that popped up.

2) Taking a guess that the package name matches the bug error report
subject line I can tell you:

update-manager:
  Installed: 1:0.87.30
  Candidate: 1:0.87.30
  Version table:
 *** 1:0.87.30 0
500 http://au.archive.ubuntu.com hardy-updates/main Packages
100 /var/lib/dpkg/status
 1:0.87.24 0
500 http://au.archive.ubuntu.com hardy/main Packages

But since that's the package it said it couldn't install, again I don't
know if you can trust that information.

3) What I expected to happen was that the update manager window would
close and ask me to allow it to reboot.

4) Instead it reported the above error and asked me to report it.

[Bug 281569] Re: package samba-common 2:3.2.3-1ubuntu3 failed to install/upgrade: subprocess post-installation script returned error exit status 1

[LukeKendall]

I have a modified smb.conf.  I did the diff, but found it confusing, so
I requested a side by side diff.  That didn't do as requested, it just
showed the plain diff again.

So I chose the option to run a shell to examine the situation, but
nothing happened.  In fact my whole system update stopped at that point.

Running ps ax I found the bash that was apparently blocked and killed
that.  A panel popped up saying the samba post install script had
failed, and went on to list a whole bunch of other packages that also
failed - notably wine and ubuntu-desktop.  The upgrade continued on, and
I'll see how broken it is now.

Here's some output from the end of the system update terminal window:

[LukeKendall]

Public bug reported:

1) The release of Ubuntu you are using, via 'lsb_release -rd' or System

At the very end of the upgrade, an error panel popped up titled
"Could not install the upgrades" and whose body said:
"The upgrade aborts now. Your system could be in an unusable state. A recovery 
will run now (dpkg --configure -a)."

When I re-ran update-manager it did not offer the option to do
a distribution upgrade.  It's possible it thinks the upgrade completed
( I see that /etc/issue says it's 8.10, although I have still not
attempted a reboot to see if it's really upgraded and working).

[LukeKendall]

Okay, all looks good now.  The dist-upgrade appears to have
worked, mail is being sent and received, and my manual
fixes to grub's menu.lst seemed to work well until it got to the point of 
starting the Gnome Display Manager.  An alert 
panel (text mode) popped saying:

Server Authorization directory (daemon/ServAuthDir) is set to
/var/lib/gdm but is not owned by user 108 and group 113. Please
correct the ownership or GDM configuration and restart GDM.

 OK

Now, /var/lib/gdm is listed as user and group gdm, and ls -ldn
of /var/lib/gdm shows it is owned by user 108 and group 113.
gdm is in /etc/passwd (uid 108) and /etc/groups (gid 113).
Directory permissions are:
drwxr-x--- 3 108 113 4096 2009-01-05 16:39 /var/lib/gdm
drwxr-x--- 3 gdm gdm 4096 2009-01-05 16:39 /var/lib/gdm

Unfortunately, there appears no way to make the highlighted
OK apply - Enter does nothing, and I can't even Ctrl-Alt-Bksp
since X isn't running.

A ps revealed something called whiptail running with that error
message, so I killed that.  Things proceeded, with an error saying
that gdm would not be started, and I was at a text console.

But / had been mounted read-only.  I rebooted again, and this time
there was a message about md1 (i.e. /) not runninmg, and did I want to try to 
start it.  It timed out while I was reading that and
dropped me to busybox.

I rebooted a 3rd time and this time it proceeded past that point but said the 
root filesystem was dirty, and fscked it.  But that failed with an error that 
it required a manual fsck.  I did that,
and it fixed maybe 12~20 errors, and I rebooted.  Actually it
then presented me with the Resume/Fix packages/FS check/...
text choices panel thing, so I tried to TAB to choose Resume
and after a while text appeared in the middle asking if I wanted
to list all N-thousand possibilities so obviously the screen hadn't
been cleared and I was back at a dirty text console running bash.

So I again did the Ctrl-Alt-Del and the reboot proceeded.

This time all was well.  Even the nvidia driver is in place and working, with 
my hand-crafted twinview xorg.conf, whereas
previously each new kernel install required stopping X (GDM),
running the nvidia script, and restarting GDM.  Brilliant!

[Bug 321038] [NEW] ISBN search returns "The search returned no items"

[LukeKendall]

Public bug reported:

Binary package hint: tellico

I can't get searches to return any items.  The same ISBN (0-553-56273-8) which 
in GCstar returns all the expected info from ISBNdb.com, in tellico returns 
nothing.  Ditto for library of congress.  I found via google a response to this 
problem that said to try adding the line
Syntax=grs-1
to the config file and I also found a response that said that worked, but 
nowhere could I find a mention of which section of the config file I should add 
that line to.  I tried adding it to the section for ISBNdb.com data source and 
that didn't work, nor did it adding it only to the Fetch section.
I have tried several ISBN numbers, with and without "-" character separating 
the numbers.

PS:
The reason for wanting tellico over gcstar is that I'm hopeful of adding some 
automation to feed it a whole long list of ISBNs (collected e.g. by a long 
barcode scan session to collect barcodes and somehow converting those to 
ISBNs), so I don't have to add every book one by one, manually.

It's still happening. :-)

I'm using FF 3.0.5 under Ubuntu 8.10 and upgraded to flashblock 1.5.8,
at which point youtube videos would not play after clicking on the
"play" icon provided by flashblock - the viewport simply cleared to all
black and stayed that way.  I upgraded to flashblock 1.5.9 and restart
FF, and nothing has changed.

I also have infoRSS 1.1.4.2, Media Converter 1.0.2, Save Image in Fodler

[Bug 310210] Re: firefox 3.0.5 + flashblock fails to load flash movies

[LukeKendall]

I checked out the Adobe Flash plugin - I had version 10.0.15.something 
installed.
After downloading the latest for Linux (10.0.22.87) and installing via debconf, 
it didn't seem to get installed.  So I ran update manager and updated 309 
various packages, one of which included the Adobe flashplayer and the package 
called flashplayer-nonfree, and restarting FF, by visiting 
http://www.adobe.com/software/flash/about/ it reported (via a flash frame, that 
required a
click to activate due to Flashblock - as you'd expect - and which was one Flash 
thing that always seemed to work) that I now really had 10.0.22.87 flashplayer 
installed, and it's now working again.

Hope this helps others.

[Bug 144063] [apport] meld crashed with ImportError in ()

[LukeKendall]

Public bug reported:

Binary package hint: meld

I tried using meld to diff the config files for dovecot (an imap server) during 
a system
upgrade from Ubuntu 6.10 to 7.04 and it failed.
I assume this was because some dependent package was not available.
Later, "meld" ran okay.

I don't think this is a serious problem, though it would have been nice to be 
able
to use meld at the time.

[Bug 84762] Re: Feisty: usb mouse stops working

[LukeKendall]

The same applies to Edgy.  Each day when I return to the computer, the
cursor is missing from the display, the mouse has stopped working, and I
have to unplug it and replug it for it to be redetected.

Here is some dmesg output, presumably showing the results of me unplugging and 
replugging a day apart:

The PC is a mini tower system.  The USB mouse is plugged straight into a
built-in USB port.

[Bug 84762] Re: Feisty: usb mouse stops working

[LukeKendall]

I just noticed this comment on
http://www.macosxhints.com/article.php?story=20061101081125696

"I had the problem of "dead" USB mouse particularly with thin cables and
dual CRT monitor setups (Mac, Windows or Linux), and I have this problem
still occasionally on any OS (Mac, Windows or Linux).

"It does not occur on the PS2 connection for some PC mice, and it rarely
- but also - happens on USB keyboard connections.

"The only OS where I know a real fix - that can be applied in software,
on the fly, and right there - is Ubuntu Linux running on my laptop (ASUS
A6T). Since it may be possible to apply a similar fix to Mac OS X, I
thought it could be interesting in this context. Typically, my external
keyboard and the external mouse stop working after a few minutes on my
PC running Ubuntu.

"However, this is recognized as a software problem, and the solution is
a software solution. The commands are as follows and have to be issued
as root:

modprobe -r ohci_hcd

modprobe ohci_hcd no_handshake=1

"After keying in these two commands, the USB immediately turns back on,
and it remains unfreezed until the end of that session (until the
machine is turned off)."

I haven't had a chance to try this yet, but I'll give it a go.  I assume
this would be similar to forcing a redetect by physically un/re-plugging
the mouse?

[Bug 430570] [NEW] nvi gets conversion error, truncates file

[LukeKendall]

Public bug reported:

Binary package hint: nvi

I have a large text file (that contains some non-ascii characters).  The
same problem occurs on a much shorter file, of the problem lines, which
I'll attach.  My Ubuntu version:

Description:Ubuntu 8.10
Release:8.10


If I search within my file, it says:  Conversion error on line 53320
If I creep up on line 53320, I see it contains:

Dear Felicity and Patrick,
.sp
.P
~
risen to the top of the pile of

~
also going to be short as I am doing this at work during my lunch break!

In contrast, vim shows these lines as:

Dear Felicity and Patrick,
.sp
.P
This is a quick note because your last, very welcome sheet, hasn'<92>t

\fILetters to Be Answered\fR yet, but it<92>s been so long that I am getting a

If I try to write it out, it says:
+=+=+=+=+=+=+=+
Error: zzz: Invalid or incomplete multibyte or wide character.
zzz: WARNING: FILE TRUNCATED.

I fetched nvi-1.81.6 and applied nvi_1.81.6-7.diff and built it.
The problem is unchanged.

I also noticed that the make install didn't run ldconfig.
Worse, I noticed that it installs nvi as vi.

[Bug 563480] Re: Long delay with blank screen during boot

[LukeKendall]

I rebooted, and my problem hasn't changed.  Still nothing from the BIOS
or grub.  Nor could I get the BIOS to start by hitting the Del key (I
tried for a minute or so).

I just noticed, though, that if I Ctrl-Alt-F1 to switch to a console
window, that too is blank.

Also during the reboot I had the Nvidia's VGA output plugged directly
into the CRT, and the CRT switched to show the DVI input, but even so, I
didn't get to see the boot messages on that either.

I'll keep searching to see if I can work out what's wrong.

[Bug 563480] Re: Long delay with blank screen during boot

[LukeKendall]

Could my problem be related?  I get a completely blank screen until X starts, 
when I boot.  I mean completely blank.
In other words, no BIOS messages, no SplashTop, no grub menu, nothing.

This happened while I was finalising my install on a new PC, and changed
from using a CRT monitor on DVI directly, to using D-SUB (VGA) connector
through a Belkin 4-port KVM.

So I boot now by waiting a few seconds for Splashtop to have appeared, the n 
hit Enter (since I configured it
to prompt rather than timeout, and luckily it starts with the mouse hovering 
over the Exit Splashtop option);
then I wait a few seconds for grub to load, then nit Enter again to choose my 
default kernel.  Then 20 or 30 seconds
later X starts up and suddenly i see the Ubunti screen an all is well.

But if I ever mess up a grub config or some other hardware or config problem 
then I'll be literally in the dark,
and unable to do any BIOS stuff or grub stuff to get back in operation.

I have a theory that because /etc/usplash.conf had been set by something to 
1920x1440 mode while I was using
the CRT, that by changing it back to represent 1024x768 and re-running 
"update-usplash-theme usplash-theme-ubuntu"
to modify the initrd image, things may come good.  But i'd welcome any advice 
before I next try to reboot.

I do see a message from the LCD monitor about "Display mode out of range" at 
various stages, so this may be on the right track.  Though I'm very very 
surprised that anything could stop the BIOS messages from displaying on screen. 
 Could
the usplash feature set the resolution in the nVidia graphics card so that it 
starts up in that mode on a warm boot?!

I suppose another possibility is that all the boot messages are going out only 
on the DVI channel, and nothing on the
VGA, until X starts?

[Bug 563480] Re: Long delay with blank screen during boot

[LukeKendall]

I should have said, the nVidia card is:
01:00.0 VGA compatible controller: nVidia Corporation G98 [GeForce 8400 GS] 
(rev a1)
and there is also a motherboard graphics controller (but I disabled that in the 
BIOS as just
about the first thing I did during the install).
I'm running Ubuntu 9.10. uname a:
Linux posher 2.6.31-21-generic-pae #59-Ubuntu SMP Wed Mar 24 08:47:55 UTC 2010 
i686 GNU/Linux
X is running happily at 1680x1050, and I'm using the nvidia graphics driver.
I had to use it because at one stage, after bumping some auto-adjust button on 
the LCD monitor, the
whole display shifted so it was 6 inches to the right, and the only way I could 
get it back to normal
resolution and correct display was by installing the nvidia driver and then 
using its NVIDIA X Server Settings
command.

[Bug 181731] Re: National translations of "df" output misaligned

[LukeKendall]

I can confirm the same is true even within English variants.  Speaking
to one of the coreutils developers about it, he said:

"It's to do with your locale:

$ head -n1 /etc/issue
Ubuntu 9.10 \n \l

$ dpkg -s coreutils | grep Version
Version: 7.4-2ubuntu1

$for LANG in en_AU.utf8 en_IE.utf8; do df | head -n2; done

Filesystem   1K-blocks  Used Available Use% Mounted on
/dev/sda1 14421344   6657252   7031532  49% /

Interestingly I can't reproduce it on fedora 11 (coreutils-7.2) or
fedora 12 (coreutils-7.6), or on en_AU on unbuntu.
Note coreutils doesn't provide english variant translations,
while ubuntu does, so I'm guessing it's an issue with the
en_AU ubuntu coreutils translation?"

This bug has also been present for something like two years.

[Bug 1724876] Re: libreoffice soffice.bin using 100% cpu

[LukeKendall]

FWIW, I had a few documents open, but none being actively edited.  One very 
long (about 300k words).
I closed several of them (including the very long one).
One that had changes needing saving, I simply saved.
CPU load dropped to almost nothing.
Sorry I didn't think to check load before saving, and after closing the long 
one.
In the past I've found that closing LO and reopening files also fixes the issue.

[Bug 1724876] Re: libreoffice soffice.bin using 100% cpu

[LukeKendall]

I can add a few notes, as it's happened a few times since I wrote the above.
On each occasion, I've had:
- several documents open in Writer
- one is moderately large (93k words)
- at least one has changes needing to be saved.

If I save the modified doc, CPU usage stays at 100% for soffice.
If I close the large doc, CPU drops to negligible.
If I reopen the large doc, CPU goes back to 100% for up to a minute, then 
returns to negligible.

[Bug 1656738] [NEW] Ubuntu Software Updater provides no grub info and broken link too

[LukeKendall]

Public bug reported:

I noted that for some reason, there is no information about changes
provided for this critical piece of software (grub2), and worse than
that, the link provided in the Software Updater leads you to a page that
does not exist.  E.g. it reports:

Installed version: 1.66.6+2.02~beta2-36ubuntu3.6
Available version: 1.66.7+2.02~beta2-36ubuntu3.7

The list of changes is not yet available.

Please use 
http://launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/grub2-signed/1.66.7+2.02~beta2-36ubuntu3.7/+changelog
until the changes become available or try again later.

I find it reprehensible that the changelog is not provided for such a
critical piece of system software.

[Bug 1573478] Re: metacity (flashback) crashes and forces logout

[LukeKendall]

I'm just reporting in that since upgrading metacity using Alberts' PPA,
I have not experienced a further crash. The nearest I came was a screen-
lock which I'm pretty sure I accidentally triggered via a Ctrl+Shift+L.
:-)  Since the frequency was something like every hour or two, I think
that's a very healthy sign.  Thanks, Alberts!

[Bug 1573478] Re: metacity (flashback) crashes and forces logout

[LukeKendall]

Hmm, that was weird: similarly to comment #4, I just noticed a Firefox
window lose all its decorations, so to hide it I had to use its icon in
the dock.  But when I unhid it, the decorations were back.  So: weird.
I just thought I'd mention it.

[Bug 1573478] Re: metacity (flashback) crashes and forces logout

[LukeKendall]

The link https://wiki.ubuntu.com/Testing/EnableProposed talks about
Ubuntu 14.04 and something called Softwatre & Updates:

"To enable the proposed archive for Ubuntu 14.04 use the Software &
Updates program and ensure that Pre-release updates (trusty-proposed) is
ticked in the Updates tab."

Is "Software & Updates" the same thing as System Tools -> Administration
-> Update Manager, or Software Updater?

I got a crash when I tried to start Software Updater (it asked if I
wanted to report it as a I relaunched it: but relaunching just crashed
again). When I chose Update Manager, the window appeared then vanished.

I've attached the excerpt from /var/syslog.

I saw a warning a few days ago stating that one of my repositories for
trusty (extensions, IIRC) was not able to be fetched as its signature
was missing or out of date, and so I went into Update Manager and
unchecked the single repository that matched.  That sounds relevant, as
I'm running Ubuntu 16.04.  Also possibly relevant is a red danger-
triangle that has been appearing on the top status/widget bar in the
Flashback/Metacity UI, related to system updates: none of the options
provided via the warning icon's drop-down menu actually worked (I think
the options included: check for updates, install updates), but I was
able to run Synaptic and Mark All Upgrade and then Apply and the red
warning triangle went away following the updates synpatic found and
applied.

Ah, and starting synaptic now reports an error in a more friendly way:

E: Encountered a section with no Package: header
E: Problem with MergeList 
/var/lib/apt/lists/au.archive.ubuntu.com_ubuntu_dists_trusty-updates_main_i18n_Translation-en
E: The package lists or status file could not be parsed or opened.
E: _cache->open() failed, please report.

I'll add another comment and attach that file, too: it looks binary to
me.

[Bug 1573478] Re: metacity (flashback) crashes and forces logout

[LukeKendall]

I moved aside the file it was complaining about, which I just mentioned,
so I could attach it here.  However, by the end of this report, it had
been removed by the package system.  I had done this, thinking kit would
keep it safe:

# mv /var/lib/apt/lists/au.archive.ubuntu.com_ubuntu_dists_trusty-
updates_main_i18n_Translation-en /var/lib/apt/lists/aside-
au.archive.ubuntu.com_ubuntu_dists_trusty-updates_main_i18n_Translation-
en

But apparently the package system removes files it doesn't expect to see
there, so I'm sorry, I can't give you the copy I had preserved and
Browsed to (apparently launchpad doesn't up[load the file then, it waits
till you finish filling in the form: bad decision, I guess!

Anyway, for now I've just moved that file aside.  That allowed Synaptic
to run ;properly, and now allows Software Updater to start; but after a
while it reports "Failed to download repository information". Ah, and it
has an "Updates|" tab, so probably it's the "Software & Updates" thing
referred to on the URL provided. (It seems user-unfriendly to name it
with the name that you see after you've found it and started it, not the
name you area presented with to start running it in the first place!)

And I suppose you can work out that that page probably refers to
releases other than Trusty, even though you have to read on to discover
that, rather than communicating that up-front, and not mentioning Xenial
or Yakkety at all.

But that said, there is no "Pre-release updates (xenial-proposed)"
option, so I still don't know how I can comply with the request,
unfortunately!

Ah, what the URL *also* doesn't tell you is that you first need to click over 
to the Developer Options tab and first select:
 Pre-released update (-proposed)

Oh. Good thought, but even enabling that didn't make the new option
appear under the Updates tab.

I then tried closing the updater, and it reported the software list was
now out of date and needed reloading.  After doing that, I got further
error messages:

[Bug 1573478] Re: metacity (flashback) crashes and forces logout

[LukeKendall]

I've installed it, but it's not convenient today to logout to restart
metacity.

Note that the problem with the undisplayable firefox window is probably
a separate bug.  I think it relates to a similar problem: I keep an xcb
window at the bottom of the left screen.  It has started vanishing off-
screen, too.  From the animations if I hide and unhide it, it appears to
have dropped below the edge of the displayable area.  I'm not sure what
triggers it.  (I thought perhaps it happens when the scfreen locks, but
I just tried that and it doesn't.)

But for xcb, if I select Maximise from the dock menu for it, I can see
it and use it.  But there's no other way to move its window or resize it
so it's back on screen. I have to kill it and restart it.  If I start a
fresh xcb before killing the old one, it even preserves all the cut
buffers.

I've also seen firefox windows lose all their desktop decorations (re-
sizing edges, top bar with minimise, maximise, close icons), but hiding
and then unhiding it via the window's right-click menu in the dock
reinstates all those parts of the window.

[Bug 1573478] [NEW] metacity (flashback) crashes and forces logout

[LukeKendall]

Public bug reported:

After an update 2 or 3 days ago, at random times mid-session, all window
decorations vanish, then the desktop goes to black (just time/date stamp
showing IIRC, as at a screen lock), and then I'm presented with a login
screen again.

I was logging in with Gnome Flashback.  It's been happening several
times a day, and it's infuriating.

This time I've logged in with the "(Metacity)" option rather than the
(Flashback)" option, and I'll see if that works.  Otherwise, I'll go
back to a Window Maker session to get a reliable experience.

I see this in /var/log/kern.log:

[Bug 1573478] Re: metacity (flashback) crashes and forces logout

[LukeKendall]

Possibly-related: I currently have one Firefox window (only: of 14 FF
windows) that spontaneously lost its canvas management area - all the
outside bits that have the icons to close it, minimise it, resize it
etc.  I'll attach a screenshot.  In addition, when I turned on power to
my secondary monitor (where I had a FF window open with this bug report
and a few other tabs), that window would not display on the 2nd monitor.
In fact, although that FF window appears in the dock, I can't get to it
or see it or work with it in any way - except that if I click on its
icon in the dock, to hide or unhide it, I sometimes see two or three
frames of the hide/unhide animation.  Using alt-mousedown, I can't grab
the window.  I can drag other windows onto the 2nd monitor - it's
working fine - but the bug-report FF window is not being rendered, nor
is it grabbable in any way.

[LukeKendall]

Okay, I've done that.  I'll log out and back in again.

Actually, I rebooted, as I saw there was a kernel update I hadn't
rebooted after applying.  The reboot turned into the scary kind, for
this Intel NUC, where I had to unplug not only all USB3 drives, but also
the HDMI display before it would display the boot screen. But I'm back
in action.

I'll let you know if there are further problems.

All Firefox windows are correctly decorated now, and the untouchable FF
window on the 2nd monitor is also dispalying and functioning again
properly.

[Bug 1480641] [NEW] fsck.vfat when invoked from fsck acts as if -N was specified

[LukeKendall]

Public bug reported:

fsck.vfat's non-interactive mode is interactive, which leads to serious
confusion and frustration for the user.

When you run fsck on a vfat partition, fsck.vfat runs interactively, prompting 
the user to make various choices, and acting on them.  then, at the end, it 
reports 
"Leaving filesystem unchanged."
and fails to apply the corrections.

The fsck.vfat man page says: 
"Note:  If -a and -r are absent, the filesystem is only checked, but not 
repaired."

One might think that the bug is in fsck, failing to invoke fsck.vfat with -r 
(interactive mode) by default,
but in my view the error is in fsck.vfat, in that it runs in interactive mode 
to all appearances, with no way for the user to discover that although it was 
interacting with them, *it* considers itself not to have been in "interactive 
mode".

It would also be nice if fsck.vfat  reported it was running in check-
only mode (-n?) when invoked with no arguments, even if it is not
otherwise changed, and continues to work as it currently does,
apparently interacting with the user (in this strangely interactive non-
interactive mode, with -r not specified).  It would be nice if such a
message was provided both at the start of fsck.vfat's output (to warn
the user in advance), as well as at the end (in case the initial message
has scrolled off and/or is unreachable).

If fsck.vfat's default mode is a check-only mode, then perhaps the fsck
program also needs to be modified to explicitly use "-r" unless *it* has
been invoked with "-N".

[Bug 872483] Re: laser printer only prints first job correct

[LukeKendall]

I started having exactly this problem when I moved the connection to the
printer to be direct through my computer (connected via USB), instead of
via the network to another older computer (where it was connected via
USB).  Up until then it printed flawlessly, after connecting it directly
I basically have to power cycle between each print. The newer computer
is running Ubuntu 14.04.

I have noticed that when I print something and the print panel appears
and offers me the choice of printers, next to the printer it says
"Sending data to printer" when it's sending the data, and it stays like
that even after the job is finished. If I then print anything, I get
garbage.

I tried unplugging the USB and re-plugging: the "Sending data to
printer" message vanished. I then printed a tiny email message: the
printer showed it was receiving USB data for a minute or two (weird, for
a 10 line text email message!), but did print it correctly. But
afterwards, the print panel showed  the "Sending data to printer"
message, and again the next print appeared as garbage.

The old Ubuntu system had CUPS 1.3.7, the new has CUPS 1.7.2. On the old
Ubuntu system, I installed the .PPD file from Lexmark; when I configured
it on the new system, it auto-detected the model correctly as a Lexmark
c543 (it's a c543dn).

I tried installing the same PPD file as I used on the old Ubuntu system
(8.04.), and re-did the tests, but the situation was unchanged.

It seems a completely reliable indicator of whether the next job will
fail or not is if the print pane says  "Sending data to printer" even
after the job is complete.  At that point, unplugging/replugging or
power cycling is needed.

I'm pretty sure I had no problems printing from the old Ubuntu even
though on that system of course the printer was connected locally, not
via the network.

I hope this information is useful in developing a good fix for it.  It
does sound to me like it's a problem with a later Linux USB system.

[Bug 1534969] [NEW] package plymouth 0.9.2-3ubuntu9 failed to install/upgrade: subprocess installed post-installation script returned error exit status 1

[LukeKendall]

Public bug reported:

Without me doing anything peculiar, my Ubuntu 14.04 system started pulling in 
packages from Xenial. 1st symptom was a broken dependency in plymouth.  After a 
big apt-get update, many packages were broken. 
Various packages were removed (like synaptic), and it was recommended that I 
re-installed 14.04.
Since I had found booting from a USB very problematic for the original install 
(on my Intel NUC), I instead tried an update-manager -d and approved the 
upgrade. After about an hour, with all required packages downloaded and about 
50% of them installed, the system rebooted without warning while I was in the 
middle of working.
When it restarted it appeared to be half-installed, but wouldn't boot to a 
graphical UI. It said the plymouth package was broken.
I ran dpkg --configure -a, which seemed to install a lot of packages, though it 
complained that avahi-daemon, avahi-util, telepathy-salut, and 
account-plugin-salut were broken, at the end.
I tried rebooting and got the meaningless to a normal person error:
Error getting authority: Error initializing authority: Could not connect: No 
such file or directory (g-io-error-quark, 1)

Fortunately, google revealed that this means some stupid decision that 
unmountable drives should translate into a nonsense error and make it appear 
that the system is broken by refusing to boot.  But adding the nofail option to 
non-essential drives in /etc/fstab should fix the problem, after a reboot. It 
did, but after login various errors popped up asking if I wished to report them.
This is one of them.

My impression is that Ubuntu has made a large leap backwards in
reliability and usability. I gather the stupid decision to prevent a
boot when some drives are unavailable is a design decision in systemd.
If true, that is an astonishingly bad choice.

The bizarre error message and opaque error message "Error getting
authority..." could be used as an excellent example to support those
people who argue that Linux is user unfriendly. It provides insufficient
context to even guess what it might be referring to; and it contains the
classic "No such file or directory" with the failure to actually name
the full path of the file that's missing. Remarkable that design errors
like that are still being coded in.

What does this have to do with the plymouth package? I have no idea. All
I could provide in this bug report was context for what had happened.
Hopefully the automatically-collected files will provide more useful
information than I can, to diagnose the problem.

I see that I've installed 16.04.  update-manager -d does not actually
tell you that in advance.

[LukeKendall]

Public bug reported:

First, I tried to install gnome-inform7_6L38-0ubuntu1_i386.deb via dpkg.
That reported:

So then I simply ran synaptic to mark all packages needing update, and
applied changes.

That worked for a while, but reported a broken package (plymouth), which
it couldn't seem to repair.  So at that point I switched to the command
line.  I did an apt-get update, followed by an apt-get check, which
reported:

Regarding the comment:

"As an aside, I'm not sure what commands you ran within synaptic to get
your system in this situation, but recovering from a manually-installed
package's unsatisfiable dependencies should not involve installing
packages from xenial onto a trusty system."

I installed the .deb for gnome-inform7 from
http://sourceforge.net/projects/gnome-inform7/ - although I can't see
anything that says it is for a specific Debian/Ubuntu release.  Could
that have been produced (a year ago) for a Xenial release?

Other than that, all I did was ask Synaptic to mark all installed
packages that had updates available, and then to install them.  I
certainly didn't poke about in the guts and do anything weird.

Here are the exact commands I used:

# dpkg -i gnome-inform7_6L38-0ubuntu1_i386.deb
# apt-get update
# apt-get check
# apt-get install empathy
# apt-get install libqt5webkit5-qmlwebkitplugin
# apt-get -f install
# synaptic
# apt-get install synaptic
# apt-get -f install

BTW, the apt-get check resulted in this:

# apt-get check
Reading package lists... Done
Building dependency tree   
Reading state information... Done
You might want to run 'apt-get -f install' to correct these.
The following packages have unmet dependencies:
 account-plugin-aim : Depends: empathy (= 3.8.6-0ubuntu9.2) but it is not 
installed
  Depends: mcp-account-manager-uoa but it is not installed
 account-plugin-jabber : Depends: empathy (= 3.8.6-0ubuntu9.2) but it is not 
installed
 Depends: mcp-account-manager-uoa but it is not 
installed
 account-plugin-salut : Depends: empathy (= 3.8.6-0ubuntu9.2) but it is not 
installed
Depends: mcp-account-manager-uoa but it is not installed
[...]

Which is why I then tried to apt-get install empathy, but it gave me
warnings like this:

# apt-get install empathy
Reading package lists... Done
Building dependency tree   
Reading state information... Done
You might want to run 'apt-get -f install' to correct these:
The following packages have unmet dependencies:

 vlc-nox : Depends: libgnutls28 (>= 3.2.10-0) but it is not installed
 zeitgeist-core : Depends: libxapian22 but it is not installed

I tried this, just to see what would happen if I tried t oupdate one of
the missing packages:

E: Sub-process /usr/bin/dpkg returned an error code (1)

When I then tried to run synaptic, I found it was gone (from the Gnome
menus, and from the system, entirely).

>From what people have said here, it sounds like Xenial is a later
release than Trusty, and somehow my Ubuntu 14.04 started installing
packages from Xenial, is that it?  Certainly, that was not my intention.

Things seems to be largely okay (though Samba has begun segfaulting).  I 
certainly didn't force any updates, AFAIK, and saw no warnings about anything I 
was doing as being not recommended, so I'm still a bit confused about
a) Just what started the problem
b) How dangerous a situation I'm in now, and
c) What I should do to try to recover.

[Bug 1349095] [NEW] sortmail won't build: libgdm-dev does not contain gdbm-ndbm.h

[LukeKendall]

Public bug reported:

I fetched the latest sortmail source from oneiric:
https://launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/sortmail/1:2.4-1ubuntu1

950478be4125eae7f914adc670528d4428bc5a1c  sortmail_2.4-1ubuntu1.diff.gz

and tried to build it.
(I applied the patch)

It won't build, complaining that it needs gdbm-ndbm.h
make gives:
cc -O -DLINUX -I/usr/include/gdbm   -c -o sortmail.o sortmail.c
sortmail.c:76:23: fatal error: gdbm-ndbm.h: No such file or directory
 #include 

The patch replaced an include of gdbm/ndbm.h like so:
 -#include 
+#include 

apt-file wrongly reports that libgdm-dev has it:
$ apt-file search gdbm-ndbm.h
libgdbm-dev: /usr/include/gdbm-ndbm.h

It doesn't.

There exists a build of sortmail 2.4-1 for ubuntu trusty, as I can
install it and run it (albeit with an old bug), so where is the source
for the ubuntu build.

When I looked here, I couldn't find one for the x86 for trusty, though the 
binary package exists:

[Bug 1381510] [NEW] Cannot duplex print postscript files made by psbook

[LukeKendall]

Public bug reported:

The purpose of the psbook command is to allow you to print booklets:
e.g. a typical use is to place 2 pages per sheet and to do the
impositioning so that you can print booklets, stapled or sewn together.
E.g. see http://marcelm.nl/making_books.html.

However, if you have a duplex printer, which will print duplex from
evince or gv or libreoffice, etc. etc., and then you create a .ps file
using psbook, there is no way you can get the print system to honor the
duplexing - each sheet of the booklet is forced out single sided, which
completely defeats the purpose.

The clumsy workaround is to use pselect to select the even pages of the
.ps file created by psbook, print them (they'll be forced out single-
sided due to the bug), then work out what way to feed the paper back in
so that the pages will print on the correct side and with the correct
orientation (this will vary from printer to printer from my experience),
and you can get the result you want.

... I meant to say in the workaround, that after feeding the one-side

[Bug 902714] Re: ubuntu-bug can't always report bugs against "no particular package"

[LukeKendall]

This one, the bug 'ubuntu-bug can't always report bugs against "no
particular package"',
https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/apport/+bug/902714.
Unfortunately, no mention of an ID for the above transferred apparently
to apport appears in the above note by micahg in 2011, so I can't follow
up to see what actions occurred in the intervening years.

Since the same problem happened to me yesterday with Ubuntu 14.04, I saw
that the error in the documentation remains or else in ubuntu-bug, as
once again I tried to follow the instructions at
https://help.ubuntu.com/community/ReportingBugs:

"Filing a general bug against no particular package

If you’re not sure which package is affected by the bug, type ubuntu-bug
in the “Run Command” screen and press Enter. This will guide you through
a series of questions to gather more information about the bug and help
you assign it to the appropriate package. "

However, if you do try this, and then select the category Other in the
first panel, ubuntu-bug just pops up a warning that you must specify a
particular package, and exits.  This contradicts the topic itself:
"Filing a general bug against no particular package".

In my case I was trying to report a problem in the printing area when I
discovered this problem of reporting bugs of uncertain origin was
unchanged.

[Bug 1385813] [NEW] find -size -Nk seems to be off by 1

[LukeKendall]

Public bug reported:

If I have a file of size less than 1k, and use:
find -size -1k
to try to find it, it doesn't.
If I use
 find -size -1000c
it does find it.  If I use
find -size -2k
to find it, it does.  It seems like the parsing of units is wrong when you use 
'k' for the size units.

[Bug 627287] Re: Rewrites /etc/cups/printers.conf every night

[LukeKendall]

I recently bought a new printer, and added it to the server (a laptop running 
Ubuntu 8.04).
At first I added it with the Lexmark-supplied install.sh script, but that 
didn't work so well.
But when I used cups to Add Printer, it worked fine.
The main client is a Ubuntu 10.04 system, and after I added the new printer 
(shared via smb)
from the printer configuration tool, it too worked.

The only problem was that for every print job from the 10.04 system, I had to 
supply my password
(the job would then print).

Today I fixed the problem by going back to the 8.04 system, and via the Cups 
web interface
(localhost:631), I went into Administration, then in the Server section I chose 
Edit Configuration File.
>From there I just changed the  section, the  clause, 
>by deleting *only* the
Send-document item, and saved the configuration.  From that point on, the 10.04 
system did not
require me to provide a password when submitting print jobs any more.

[Bug 1054447] [NEW] fetchmail stops fetching mail

[LukeKendall]

Public bug reported:

fetchmail release 6.3.9-rc2+GSS+NTLM+SDPS+SSL+NLS+KRB5.
Running on Ubuntu 10.04 kernel 2.6.38-14-generic-pae
Connecting to Australian ISP Optus.
For some months, mail delivery would stop after a few days.  Recently the 
period before delivery stops shrank down to just hours.
Finally I investigated instead of just restarting fetchmail.

The last fetchmail message in the log file was an "awakened" message from the 
day before - like
it just died silently or locked up.  Behold (manual restart at 21:51 next day):

One other odd thing - although in fetchmailrc I specify a logfile,

set logfile /var/log/fetchmail.log

and Ubuntu starts fetchamil with --syslog, and I get a message when fetchmail 
starts that
 * Restarting mail retriever agent: 
fetchmail: Warning: syslog and logfile are set. Check both for logs!
and I checked that the fetchmail user could write to the separate fetchmail log 
file:

# sudo -u fetchmail sh -c "echo 'manual test' > /var/log/fetchmail.log"
# cat /var/log/fetchmail.log
manual test

fetchmail itself never writes anything to  /var/log/fetchmail.log

[Bug 1054447] Re: fetchmail stops fetching mail

[LukeKendall]

*** This bug is a duplicate of bug 733980 ***
https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/733980

So far so good.

Previously I had a poll line like:
poll ISPP-FQDN proto POP3:
 user luke here is lukekendall there with password not-this

Changed it to:
poll  ISPP-FQDN proto pop3 uidl no dns
  user luke here is lukekendall there with password not-this,either
  ssl sslcertpath /etc/ssl/certs
  sslfingerprint "E1:...:41"

Determining the fingerprint was slightly difficult, since it seems I can't run 
fetchmail as root: had to copy the
/etc/fetchmailrc to me, and change me to be the owner.

Anyway, I'll leave this running for a day or two, and if it's all good, I'll 
let you know (and then
upgrade to 6.3.22, manually).

PS:

I removed the set logfile /var/log/fetchmail.log from /etc/fetchmailrc

I think the warning is ambiguous: in hindsight, I can see that:
"fetchmail: Warning: syslog and logfile are set. Check both for logs!"
means that if you can't find errors in one of those files, check the other.
I read it to mean that log messages would go to both.
Given that --syslog overrides "set logfile", would it be clearer if the warning 
said:
"fetchmail: Warning: syslog and logfile are set: only syslog will be used."


Thanks, Matthias.

*** This bug is a duplicate of bug 733980 ***

Thanks again, Matthias.  Yes, it still works fine with, after adding the
sslcertck; I ran it manually and saw the mail host state that the
fingerprints matched.

Re running fetchmail as root - I suspect the Ubuntu people may have
tightened it, as I just did an su.  I tried a bit harder than this (see
below) to run it from root, but there's no HOME dir for the fetchmail
user and so I gave up trying and just ran it as me.  Here's the gist of
my Ubuntu 10.04 run-fetchmail-as-root attempt:

root@posher:/var/log# fetchmail -v -f /etc/fetchmailrc 
fetchmail: WARNING: Running as root is discouraged.
File /etc/fetchmailrc must be owned by you.
root@posher:/var/log# ls -l /etc/fetchmailrc
-rw--- 1 fetchmail root 1768 2012-09-23 12:43 /etc/fetchmailrc
root@posher:/var/log# sudo -u fetchmail fetchmail -v -f /etc/fetchmailrc
fetchmail: lstat: /root/.fetchids: Permission denied

Anyway, all is well.  I'll upgrade fetchmail manually in a few days.

[Bug 581404] Re: CD tray automatically closes after opening

[LukeKendall]

I'm having a similar problem.

I'm running Ubuntu 10.04 LTS with kernel 2.6.38-14-generic-pae.
I use growisofs nightly for incremental backups, and call eject for the device 
upon successful completion.
For the last month or so, the eject I call from the nightly backup script (from 
root) seemed to have always failed to eject even though "eject" completes 
successfully (exit code 0). Repeated calls to eject from the script behave the 
same.  Yet if I do it from my ordinary user account from the shell, it always 
works.

But I think what is actually happening is that the cdrom is successfully
ejected, but a little more than 10 mins later, the cdrom drive reloads
all by itself.  (So when I look, hours later, the cdrom is not ejected.)
Anyway, to check this I've just done the udevadm followed by eject
/dev/sr0, at Wed Jul 25 14:44:30 EST 2012.  I'm now waiting to see if it
reloads by itself in 10 mins or so.  Here's the output for the eject
response:

# udevadm monitor -e --udev
monitor will print the received events for:
UDEV - the event which udev sends out after rule processing

I don't suppose there's any chance that the manufacturer (HP) has
decided that cooling the PC doesn't work properly if the cdrom drive
door is open, so has some sort of in-device firmware that somehow forces
a close after 10 mins?

Re that post, above: I should add that when I said it's been happening
"for the last month or so", the behaviour started when I set up a new PC
to replace an older one that had died.  So, it's been happening ever
since I commissioned this new low-end HP machine.

[Bug 1020926] [NEW] crash in nouveau driver

[LukeKendall]

Public bug reported:

Recently installed Ubuntu 10.04 LTS 32 bit on a new machine.  I tried out the 
nouveau driver.
Dual monitor configuration.
Occasionally I'd come turn on the monitors only to have each displaying "No 
signal".
Unable to switch to a text console.
Occasionally the X screen would just freeze.  I *think* the mouse was still 
tracking, however.
No pattern.  I think I had about 5 of these crashes in a 10 day period.
This time I thought to log in from another PC; an examination of the X log file 
showed a crash; it's attached.

Unrelated: I couldn't get the dual monitors to work at all if I chose a
pae kernel, but they worked fine with a generic kernel.  If interested,
just ask and I'll provide more details.

[Bug 1020926] Re: crash in nouveau driver

[LukeKendall]

I've just done a better search and found that the backtrace looks similar to 
that of bug 553789.
I also clicked through to submit the bug report before I noticed the text 
listing the extra information.
E.g. the kernel was 2.6.32-41-generic.
Anyway, I suspect this bug is a known bug, possibly even fixed in 2.6.39
http://git.kernel.org/?p=linux/kernel/git/torvalds/linux.git;a=commit;h=2b4cebe4e165b0ef30a138e4cf602538dea15583
so apologies if I've wasted anyone's time with this.

[Bug 663100] Re: Thunderbird starts Konqueror instead of Firefox when clicking to links in mails

[LukeKendall]

I had a similar problem.
Thunderbird (3) has options to set the application to use to open links.  I had 
this set to the correct Firefox installed when I upgraded from 9.10 to 10.04.  
It did not work: links (http or https) would not open.
IMO the bug is that there is more than one place to set the functionality for 
opening links: in this case, one place is in TB, and the other is via 
System>Settings>Preferred Applications.
In my case, at some distant time in the past I had set the Web Browser (and 
mail, too) to open a Custom path
(to an older firefox which I wouldn't expect to work under 10.04).
I think the correct solution would require a Gnome variant of TB to strip the 
ignored and deceptive configuration choice from TB, to be installed as the 
Ubuntu version.  Either that, or only use the system preference as a fallback 
to application-specific preferences.

[Bug 902714] [NEW] ubuntu-bug can't always report bugs against "no particular package"

[LukeKendall]

Public bug reported:

If you choose the option in ubuntu-bug to report a bug against "no particular 
package", if you follow the instructions at 
https://help.ubuntu.com/community/ReportingBugs you will fail if the bug is not 
within a currently-running process.
In my case, I wanted to report a bug in whatever it is that handles an Ubuntu 
upgrade.
When started as recommended on the above web page, ubuntu-bug demands a PID, 
and without one, it won't work.

I suggest adding some text to the ReportingBugs page to explain that if you 
can't provide a process ID, you can provide a package name.  And that if you 
don't know the package name (e.g. if you were trying to report a bug against 
ubuntu-bug itself), you can do a search to find what package the command comes 
from, like so:
apt-cache search ubuntu-bug (which tells you that ubuntu-bug is in the 
reportbug package, therefore you would have to run ubuntu-bug reportbug).

[Bug 902714] Re: ubuntu-bug can't always report bugs against "no particular package"

[LukeKendall]

I should add, it seems to me that there's no way to report a bug if you don't 
know what package the bug is in.  In my case, I don't know the name of the 
package that handles a system update.
I don't know how a novice would find that out.  From some thinking and poking 
about, I've guessed that it's probably update-manager.

[Bug 902719] [NEW] Invalid menu.lst file was created

[LukeKendall]

Public bug reported:

Over Sun 4th - Wed 7th I upgraded from Ubuntu 9.10 to 10.04.  I chose
the option "use the package-provider's menu.lst".  It created a menu.lst
that could not boot.  The problem was that it consistently used invalid
syntax for each "root" stanza, e.g.:

title   Ubuntu 10.04.3 LTS, kernel 2.6.32-36-generic-pae
root/dev/sda6
kernel  /boot/vmlinuz-2.6.32-36-generic-pae root=/dev/sda6 quiet
initrd  /boot/initrd.img-2.6.32-36-generic-pae
quiet

By editing the grub commandline from inside grub, to provide instead
root(hd0,5)
the system booted.

Later, when I edited menu.lst to correct the problem permanently, I
found that every root line for each kernel used the Linux device name
instead of the grub device syntax.

Sorry, I can't easily provide details (lsb_release -rd and update-manager 
versions) on the 9.10 system as I'm not running it anymore.
(If it's important to know, let me know, and I'll see if I can boot it up - I 
saved a copy of / onto another partition before doing the system upgrade.)

[Bug 902719] Re: Invalid menu.lst file was created

[LukeKendall]

I should add, if there is a way to test a grub menu.lst to find if it
will certainly fail, that should be run as part of the menu.lst creation
step.  There are certain syntax errors, and semantic errors, which could
be checked in advance.

Perhaps grub has such a facility - lilo used to - but if grub doesn't,
IMO that means grub should get a bug report "cannot test for errors in
grub configuration" i.e. there is no way to look before you leap for the
most serious step in modifying your system, especially for non-expert
users.

[Bug 902719] Re: Invalid menu.lst file was created

[LukeKendall]

I followed up the 10.04 installation a couple of days with another
update, which grabbed kernel 2.6.32-37, and it tried to do the same
again - a diff of my version versus the package-maintainer's version
tried to provide root /dev/sda6 for every stanza, again, instead of
(hd0,5).  So it wasn't a one-off occurrence.

[Bug 586435] Re: ehci_hcd fails to mount my usb2 devices, so they are mounting as usb1

[LukeKendall]

I'm on Ubuntu 10.04.4, and kernel 2.6.32-40-generic-pae.  I use an external USB 
DVD writer for nightly incremental backups, and when that overflows I use an 
external USB drive to do a full backup onto.  That happens about every month or 
two.
This time, for the first time ever, I could not mount the USB drive: dmesg was 
showing:

new high speed USB device using ehci_hcd
unable to enumerate USB device
device descriptor read/all, error -71

I tried 3 different external USB drives (not pen drives, disc drives),
with the same result; although I could mount pen drives on the (1m
extension) cable plugged into that USB port, which I have been using for
years.  So I thought that meant the cable was okay.

>From some googling, I wondered if it could be a cable problem.  So I
tried plugging the USB disc drive into a front USB port via different
USB cables, and found one cable worked and three that didn't.  I also
read various reports from recent years that they could get their drives
(and other devices) working reliably if they either forced an uload of
the ehci_hcd module, or, in later kernels where that's built in, turned
it off.

Do you think that the problem could be that some cables just can't
handle the speed of USB 2 reliably, and the driver doesn't fall back
gracefully to run at USB 1 speeds in those cases, thus causing an error
which becomes visible and troublesome for most ordinary users?

[Bug 924825] [NEW] troffcvt with -mm option gets all font sizes wrong

[LukeKendall]

Public bug reported:

If you use the -mm option on troffcvt, it always outputs wrong \point-size 
definitions: most of them seem to end up computed as 1.  (I think, point size N 
gets gets turned into point size 1 if N < 12; otherwise gets turned into point 
size N - 10.)
I suspect that it's the .H and .HU macros (for creating headings) - this simple 
input file works correctly:
.ps 14
.vs 16
.ce
.ft B
troffcvt\-a troff converter
.ft

This one doesn't:

.ps 14
.vs 16
.H 1 "Heading"
.ce
.ft B
troffcvt\-a troff converter
.ft

Here's a slightly longer example:
.ps 10
.vs 13
.HU "Heading"
.P
Now let's try the following word 4 point sizes smaller: \s-4SMALL\s0.
How was that?  And now one 4 points larger: \s+4larger\s0.  How was that?

[Bug 924861] [NEW] doclifter does not recognise mm macro files

[LukeKendall]

Public bug reported:

I have a lot of troff/mm files.  doclifter recognises none of them as mm files. 
 All are named with a .mm suffx.  It always reports this error:
doclifter: no macro set recognized
It does it even for extremely simple mm-macro files. e.g this one called 
simple.mm:

.S 14 16
.H 1 "Heading"
.P
.ce
\fBSome bold text\fR

$ doclifter simple.mm

[Bug 924861] Re: doclifter does not recognise mm macro files

[LukeKendall]

I can try using .SA 0 or .SA 1 as appropriate.  .MT I can't use as I
don't want any of its settings interfering with my own settings.  I
don't know what .COVER does (all my docs and experience with mm is old-
school).

Re-reading the doclifter man page, I see that it only implies that it
uses the file suffix: it just says that it won't recognise an mm file
unless the file (also) has a .mm extension.  I quote:

   For a document to be recognized as containing mm markup, it must have
   the extension .mm. This avoids problems with false positives.

It would be good to document in the man page the heuristics that you do
use for mm detection (.SA, .MT, .COVER).  None of the documents I've
written, over a period of decades, has ever used any of these, so I
would never have guessed without your information.

What do you think of the idea of adding an explicit argument that tells
doclifter what macro package it should use, and thus remove the
guesswork?  Just like troff had.

Thanks for the follow-up - at least now I know what to try.

[Bug 181731] Re: National translations of "df" output misaligned

[LukeKendall]

If it's of any help to know, the output is almost correctly aligned on an 
English system if you use the human (-h) option of df. (It's only off by one 
space, starting from the"Size" column). 
Perhaps the alignment code for that case could be factored out and used more 
generally?

[Bug 181731] Re: National translations of "df" output misaligned

[LukeKendall]

Yes, you're right: it's okay if I use LANG set to C, en_AU or
en_IE.utf8.  But I'm actually using  en_AU.utf8, fr which it is badly
misaligned.

Also, doing the same test for df -h, for en_AU.utf8 they're almost
aligned (out by 1), and for all the other above locales they align
perfectly.

HTH,

luke
