For the ptrace problem, it could be related to that: https://wiki.ubuntu.com/SecurityTeam/Roadmap/KernelHardening#ptrace%20Protection and indeed: ypig:~> cat /proc/sys/kernel/yama/ptrace_scope 1 Setting it to 0 is obviously not the right thing to do. The solution must be implemented in gdb (e.g. by being suid root and dropping permissions when possible... or something else...). Running iceweasel from gdb may be a workaround, but this may be too late (e.g. to get a backtrace of some frozen process). -- Vincent Lefèvre <vinc...@vinc17.net> - Web: <http://www.vinc17.net/> 100% accessible validated (X)HTML - Blog: <http://www.vinc17.net/blog/> Work: CR INRIA - computer arithmetic / AriC project (LIP, ENS-Lyon) -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to debian-bugs-dist-requ...@lists.debian.org with a subject of "unsubscribe".
