Package: gnome-system-tools Version: 1.2.0-2 Severity: normal
When launching network-admin, the Debian release is not recognized and an 'Unrecognized Platform' dialog is presented. Sid is not mentioned in the list of releases but the check made in /usr/share/setup-tool-backends/scripts/platform.pl uses DISTRIB_ID and DISTRIB_RELEASE from /etc/lsb-release. My /etc/lsb-release looks like this: DISTRIB_ID=Debian DISTRIB_RELEASE=3.1 DISTRIB_CODENAME=sarge DISTRIB_DESCRIPTION="Debian GNU/Linux" platform.pl check_lsb() uses DISTRIB_RELEASE, but in all the scripts this is ccompared with the value 'sarge' rather than 3.1 for compatibility. A nasty hack workaround is Modifying DISTRIB_RELEASE to 'sarge' to allow the tool to recognise the system. Alternatively platform.pl can be modified in gst_platform_guess() altering the running order of the checks to look for debian first placing \&check_debian ahead of \&check_lsb. -- System Information: Debian Release: testing/unstable APT prefers unstable APT policy: (500, 'unstable'), (500, 'testing'), (500, 'stable') Architecture: i386 (i686) Shell: /bin/sh linked to /bin/bash Kernel: Linux 2.6.11-mercurial Locale: LANG=en_GB.UTF-8, LC_CTYPE=en_GB.UTF-8 (charmap=UTF-8) Versions of packages gnome-system-tools depends on: ii libart-2.0-2 2.3.17-1 Library of functions for 2D graphi ii libatk1.0-0 1.10.1-2 The ATK accessibility toolkit ii libaudiofile0 0.2.6-6 Open-source version of SGI's audio ii libbonobo2-0 2.8.1-2 Bonobo CORBA interfaces library ii libbonoboui2-0 2.8.1-2 The Bonobo UI library ii libc6 2.3.2.ds1-22 GNU C Library: Shared libraries an ii libesd-alsa0 [libesd0] 0.2.35-2.1 Enlightened Sound Daemon (ALSA) - ii libgconf2-4 2.10.0-2 GNOME configuration database syste ii libgcrypt11 1.2.0-11.1 LGPL Crypto library - runtime libr ii libglade2-0 1:2.5.1-2 library to load .glade files at ru ii libglib2.0-0 2.6.5-1 The GLib library of C routines ii libgnome-keyring0 0.4.2-1 GNOME keyring services library ii libgnome2-0 2.10.0-3 The GNOME 2 library - runtime file ii libgnomecanvas2-0 2.10.2-2 A powerful object-oriented display ii libgnomeui-0 2.10.0-2 The GNOME 2 libraries (User Interf ii libgnomevfs2-0 2.10.1-5 The GNOME virtual file-system libr ii libgnutls11 1.0.16-13.1 GNU TLS library - runtime library ii libgpg-error0 1.0-1 library for common error values an ii libgtk2.0-0 2.6.8-1 The GTK+ graphical user interface ii libice6 4.3.0.dfsg.1-14 Inter-Client Exchange library ii libjpeg62 6b-10 The Independent JPEG Group's JPEG ii libnautilus-extension1 2.10.1-2 libraries for nautilus components ii liborbit2 1:2.12.2-1 libraries for ORBit2 - a CORBA ORB ii libpango1.0-0 1.8.1-1 Layout and rendering of internatio ii libpopt0 1.7-5 lib for parsing cmdline parameters ii libsm6 4.3.0.dfsg.1-14 X Window System Session Management ii libtasn1-2 0.2.10-4 Manage ASN.1 structures (runtime) ii libx11-6 4.3.0.dfsg.1-14 X Window System protocol client li ii libxml2 2.6.16-7 GNOME XML library ii perl 5.8.7-3 Larry Wall's Practical Extraction ii system-tools-backends 1.2.0-4 System Tools to manage computer co ii xlibs 4.3.0.dfsg.1-14 X Keyboard Extension (XKB) configu ii zlib1g 1:1.2.2-4 compression library - runtime Versions of packages gnome-system-tools recommends: ii gnome-control-center 1:2.10.1-3 The GNOME Control Center for GNOME -- no debconf information -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe".
