Package: gclcvs Version: 2.7.0-98 Severity: grave Justification: renders package unusable
gclcvs just dies at startup when run by non-root user, and strace shows nothing but this: execve("/usr/lib/gcl-2.7.0/unixport/saved_ansi_gcl", ["/usr/lib/gcl-2.7.0/unixport/save"..., "-eval", "(quit)"], [/* 97 vars */] <unfinished ...> +++ killed by SIGKILL +++ or execve("/usr/lib/gcl-2.7.0-prof//unixport/saved_ansi_gcl", ["/usr/lib/gcl-2.7.0-prof//unixpor"...], [/* 97 vars */] <unfinished ...> +++ killed by SIGKILL +++ I was wondering how come clc could compile its thing at all, and found that root has no problem running gcl: strace -o /tmp/foo /usr/lib/gcl-2.7.0/unixport/saved_ansi_gcl -eval '(quit)' GCL (GNU Common Lisp) 2.7.0 ANSI Feb 3 2010 05:59:20 Source License: LGPL(gcl,gmp,pargcl), GPL(unexec,bfd,xgcl) Binary License: GPL due to GPL'ed components: (XGCL READLINE BFD UNEXEC) Modifications of this banner must retain notice of a compatible license Dedicated to the memory of W.

I tried running a program that does brk(0) and it works. SIGKILL is particularly "interesting" error to get. Maybe I'm hitting some kind of limit? Yet I have never had problem in the past. Either running as a user or as root, I have: # limit cputime unlimited filesize unlimited datasize unlimited stacksize 8MB coredumpsize 0kB memoryuse unlimited maxproc unlimited descriptors 1024 memorylocked unlimited addressspace unlimited maxfilelocks unlimited sigpending 16382 msgqueue 819200 nice 0 rt_priority 99 This is weird. Has been happening for many months, but I have only started looking into it now. -- System Information: Debian Release: squeeze/sid APT prefers testing APT policy: (990, 'testing'), (600, 'unstable'), (550, 'stable'), (1, 'experimental') Architecture: amd64 (x86_64) Kernel: Linux 2.6.30-1-amd64 (SMP w/2 CPU cores) Locale: LANG=en_US.UTF-8, LC_CTYPE=en_US.UTF-8 (charmap=UTF-8) (ignored: LC_ALL set to en_US.UTF-8) Shell: /bin/sh linked to /bin/bash Versions of packages gclcvs depends on: ii common-lisp-controller 7.1 Common Lisp source and compiler ma ii debconf 1.5.27 Debian configuration management sy ii emacs [emacsen] 23.1+1-5 The GNU Emacs editor (metapackage) ii emacs-snapshot [emacse 1:20091002-1 The GNU Emacs editor (development ii emacs-snapshot-nox [em 1:20091002-1 The GNU Emacs editor (without X su ii emacs23 [emacsen] 23.1+1-5 The GNU Emacs editor (with GTK+ us ii gcc 4:4.3.3-9 The GNU C compiler ii libc6 2.10.2-2 GNU C Library: Shared libraries ii libgmp3c2 2:4.3.1+dfsg-3 Multiprecision arithmetic library ii libreadline6 6.0-5 GNU readline and history libraries ii libx11-6 2:1.2.2-1 X11 client-side library ii tcl8.4 8.4.19-4 Tcl (the Tool Command Language) v8 ii tk8.4 8.4.19-4 Tk toolkit for Tcl and X11, v8.4 - ii zlib1g 1:1.2.3.3.dfsg-15 compression library - runtime gclcvs recommends no packages.
