Package: bogofilter
Version: 0.94.4-1
Severity: grave
Justification: renders package unusable
I have no idea what happened, or how: bogofilter and bogoutil -- both
v0.94.4 and v1.0.0 hang. I was hoping that this might be the #317524 bug
at first; but I don't think so.
I upgraded to the new v1.0 of bogofilter (which is more than one
package, as I have found out) from bogofilter_0.94.4-1_i386. I noticed
that I wasn't getting my mail (I do not know when the problems began),
and saw that 3 or 4 bogofilters were in memory. When I killed them,
others kept spawning (every time procmail recipes were called for a
message), so I had to remove the bogofilter references in my procmail
recipe file.
I've tried running bogoutil in all sorts of ways: -d, --db-verify,
--db-recover, --db-recover-harder, etc. -- and it simply hangs every
time too, with a small footprint in memory (<1M) and using 0% of CPU. No
disk activity. No way I can export the tokens now, etc. So I don't know
if the wordlist.db got corrupted or not.
NB: It's not at all clear to me that the bogoupgrade script _doesn't_
take .db files as input (IMO unclear documentation and I've only glanced
at the perl file, looking for clues); so just in case, I'll give you
this (possibly completely irrelevant) output:
$ bogoupgrade -i wordlist.db -o foo.db
Cannot recognize signature [V_8_b1_M7_QZ_Z_H_s_A_0_ _{_].
I don't know what you can do with the above sketchy information, but
that's the best I can come up with right now.
