  Bug#509745: tzdata: Please restore US timezone configurations.         


Author: Bob Proulx
Date: Dec 26, 2008 11:00

Package: tzdata
Version: 2008h-2
Severity: normal

Please restore the ability to use US timezones as was previously
available. The current tzdata configuration loses that ability and
requires a city to be selected which is neither as correct nor as
convenient.

For example, I am currently in Kansas City. KC is in US Central
Standard Time. If I could select KC as a city option and use it to
configure the timezone that would be okay. But I can't. KC is not an
available city selection option. KC is large and isn't available!
There is no way to provide a selection for every city, most of which
are much smaller, and that is not really what is needed. Quick, what
is the correct city to choose to select US Central Standard Time when
in KC? I see Winnipeg in the list and the web shows me that it is in
the same timezone so I guess Winnipeg is the best choice for me in KC.

  Bug#499801: sprof fails to load shared object         


Author: Dmitry Pavlov
Date: Sep 22, 2008 07:40

Package: libc6-dev
Version: 2.7-13

When I invoke `sprof' it says that it can not
open the shared library I want to profile.

$gcc --shared -fPIC mylib.c -o libmy.so
$gcc myprog.c -L. -lmy -o myprog
$LD_LIBRARY_PATH=. LD_PROFILE=libmy.so LD_PROFILE_OUTPUT=. ./myprog
[program output skipped]
$ls
libmy.so libmy.so.profile mylib.c myprog myprog.c
$LD_LIBRARY_PATH=. sprof libmy.so libmy.so.profile
sprof: failed to load shared object `libmy.so'

I have libc6 2.7-13, gcc 4.3.2-1, and binutils 2.8.1~cvs20080103-7.

Regards,
Dmitry

  Bug#499781: libc6-dbg: return value of gethostbyname_r() is different from *h_errnop         


Author: Jiri Dvorak
Date: Sep 22, 2008 03:40

Package: libc6-dbg
Version: 2.7-13
Severity: normal

In the following code the return value of gethostbyname_r() is 0,
but *h_errno is 3, what violates documentation.

---
struct hostent host;
struct hostent *hostp;
int herr;
char ghbn_buf[1024*1024+1];
int nh;

hostp=&host;
nh=gethostbyname_r(hname,hostp,ghbn_buf,1024*1024,&hostp,&herr);

  Bug#499689: libc6: Now that lenny is frozen, glibc should (?) have a newer version in MIN_KERNEL_SUPPORTED         


Author: Stefanos Harhalakis
Date: Sep 21, 2008 03:50

Package: libc6
Version: 2.7-13
Severity: normal

Hello there,

Now that lenny is frozen shouldn't glibc depend to a newer (2.6.26) kernel
version? Currently, MIN_KERNEL_SUPPORTED is set to 2.6.9 and (as you know)
leaves out some newer features.

Apologies if this is nonsense.

  Bug#499366: libc6-xen - Wrong bit for nosegneg pseudo hwcap         


Author: Bastian Blank
Date: Sep 18, 2008 00:10

Package: libc6-xen
Version: 2.7-13
Severity: important

Linux uses bit 1 for the nosegneg pseudo hwcap, not 0. This makes this
package currently unusable. (And the systems really slow.)

  Bug#499016: /usr/bin/ldd: SE Linux workaround improvement         


Author: Vaclav Ovsik
Date: Sep 15, 2008 07:20

Package: libc6
Version: 2.7-13
Severity: normal
File: /usr/bin/ldd
Tags: patch

Hi,
Ldd already contains a workaround for SE Linux for access to users
terminal through file descriptor of standard output. It should be
improved by handling all three standard file descriptors. Only standard
output is used, but stdin and stderr are also inherited by traced
process and SE Linux says about permission `use' file descriptor. I got
SE Linux denial with original ldd running on elf with domain transition
(e.g. /sbin/udevd):

sid:~# ldd.orig /sbin/udevd

  Bug#498963: PACOTE: [INTL:pt] Updated Portuguese translation for debconf messages

As there is a chance that "PACOTE" means package in Portuguese, I
think that someone forgot to replace a variable somewhere..:-)

tzdata maintainers, I'll attempt another translation update
call. Maybe there's a chance that translation that only have one fuzzy
for "Santarem" will wake up....

I have just removed the symbols files from the glibc, because dpkg-dev
currently doesn't have support for ignoring private symbols from
libraries. This causes problems like this one on nscd:

Depends: glibc-private, libc6 (>= 2.8)

Until this feature is supported in dpkg-dev, this bug is a wontfix.
