AIUI the plan is to re-add support for .pkla files, if only for
compatibility, before the move to unstable.

Bug#698839: ITP: yubikey-ksm -- A YubiKey KSM written in PHP

2013-01-24 Thread Dain Nilsson
Package: wnpp
Severity: wishlist
Owner: Dain Nilsson 

* Package name: yubikey-ksm
  Version : 1.9
  Upstream Author : Yubico Open Source Maintainers 
* URL : https://github.com/Yubico/yubikey-ksm
* License : BSD-2-clause
  Programming Lang: PHP
  Description : A YubiKey KSM written in PHP

The YubiKey Key Storage Module (YK-KSM) provides a AES key storage facility
for use with a YubiKey validation server. The YK-KSM is intended to be run on
a locked-down server. This separation allows third parties to keep tight
control of the AES keys for their YubiKeys, but at the same time allow
external validation servers (e.g., Yubico's) to validate OTPs from these
YubiKeys.

The YK-KSM was designed to work with yubikey-val-server-php.

You can find much of the same discussion in the bugreport requesting
implementation of this feature in APT: #596097

In short: If you followed the recommendations in previous releases you
were already used to this kind of behavior, so this flag just makes it
way easier to reach the recommend mode of operation.


Real world feedback over the years has convinced me this is a good mode
to have as default for backports, regardless of the drawbacks it has as the
alternative default is worse if not managed carefully.
(but as I said two years ago, not my decision either way)


Best regards

Brogue is a direct descendant of Rogue, unlike other popular modern

ensure that the interactions between components will be interesting
and varied. It is possible to control it entirely with the keyboard or
entirely with the mouse.

It sounds as though in this situation, you'd either want foo-1 and
foo-2 to be parallel-installable (in which case they could coexist in
backports), or something technically similar to an Ubuntu PPA,
containing foo 1.x backports?

Candidates for removal from testing (2013-01-24)

2013-01-24 Thread Niels Thykier
-BEGIN PGP SIGNED MESSAGE-
Hash: SHA256

Hi,

We are considering removing the following packages from testing as
they have unfixed RC bugs filed against them. The packages can be
found in the attached dd-list.  The bugs that put them on this list
can be found in the removals file (also attached) just above the
package name.

The packages have been selected based on the following criteria:
 * The package had at least one RC bug without activity for the past
   14 days.
 * If a bug is assigned to multiple packages, both packages will be
   affected.
 * The RC bug affects both unstable and testing.
 * The affected package does not have any reverse dependencies in
   testing.

If the relevant RC bugs in the affected packages are not dealt with
/before/ Thursday the 31th of Jan., the packages will be removed from
testing.  Note that "dealt with" may also include downgrading a
severity-inflated bug or fixing affected versions in the BTS.

Please remember to file unblock bugs for packages fixed via uploads to
unstable (and tpu bugs for requests to fix the package via a tpu
upload).

Should you need a bit more time than given, please do not hesitate to
contact us.  It is also easier for us if we can avoid having to
reintroduce a removed package.

We will check the DELAYED queues before activing the removal hints, so
NMUs in the DELAYED queues will be given a chance to reach unstable.

Thanks,
Niels (on behalf of the Release Team)

Debian logo svg file is not loadable in Inkscape

2013-01-24 Thread Filippo Rusconi
Greetings, Fellow Debianists,

this is not actually a bug report but something that might concern us
all as a matter of Free Software use inside the Debian project:

The Debian logo file at http://www.debian.org/logos/openlogo.svg

fails to load in the much-respected SVG-based graphics editor Inkscape
(which I use daily and which works fine also for svg files not
produced by itself).

The error is this:

$ inkscape openlogo.svg
openlogo.svg:18: namespace warning : xmlns: URI &ns_svg; is not absolute
 xmlns="&ns_svg;" xmlns:xlink="&ns_xlink;" 
xmlns:a="http://ns.adobe.com/AdobeSV
 ^
openlogo.svg:22: namespace warning : xmlns: URI &ns_vars; is not absolute

^
openlogo.svg:25: namespace warning : xmlns: URI &ns_custom; is not absolute

  ^

Note that The Gimp seems to load the file just fine, although also
with an error message:

Execution error for procedure 'gimp-vectors-import-from-file':
Failed to import paths from 'openlogo.svg':
Error on line 17: Entity name 'ns_extend' is not known

Also, Iceweasel seems to load the file fine since it displays
correctly.

While I'm no expert in XML stuff, I see in the following lines at the
top of the file that the problems might relate to some Adobe-specific
namespace rules (or extensions, or whatever):




http://www.w3.org/TR/2001/REC-SVG-20010904/DTD/svg10.dtd"; [
http://ns.adobe.com/Flows/1.0/";>
http://ns.adobe.com/Extensibility/1.0/";>
http://ns.adobe.com/AdobeIllustrator/10.0/";>
http://ns.adobe.com/Graphs/1.0/";>
http://ns.adobe.com/Variables/1.0/";>
http://ns.adobe.com/ImageReplacement/1.0/";>
http://ns.adobe.com/SaveForWeb/1.0/";>
http://ns.adobe.com/GenericCustomNamespace/1.0/";>
http://ns.adobe.com/XPath/1.0/";>
http://www.w3.org/2000/svg";>
http://www.w3.org/1999/xlink";>
]>

Because opening the file in The Gimp transforms the svg graphics
object into a raster graphics object, the vector benefits of svg are
lost and thus The Gimp cannot be used as a substitute of Inkscape.

We may want to make sure that this file loads fine in Free Software
graphics svg-based programs and maybe convert it to either a more
generic svg file, or at least something free (Inkscape might be a good
candidate for this).

Any thoughts ?
Cheers,
Filippo

Agreed.

How about "patches welcome"? :) This is not meant to be tongue-in-cheek,
but a very pragmatic suggestion. I'm no SVG expert either, but AFAICT
all the "source" info are indeed in that .svg file, it is "just" that
due to some minor syntactic issues (I speculate: due to the age of the
.svg in question) it doesn't work properly with current version of
popular FOSS SVG editors.

Let's "just" find SVG experts in our community and ask them to fix the
source code. Posting a call for help about this on -dekstop might
actually be a useful way forward.

Cheers.

$ inkscape --version
Inkscape 0.48.3.1 r9886 (Dec 29 2012)

$ dpkg -l inkscape
ii  inkscape  0.48.3.1-1.3  amd64

So, I would say this is odd.


$ sha1sum openlogo.svg

could you confirm this on a file that you have 

wget http://www.debian.org/logos/openlogo.svg

Thanks,

Investigating a bit, I found that 

http://www.adobe.com/AdobeSVGViewerExtensions/3.0/

gives a 404 in my browser. This url is at line 18 of the file.

Same for 

http://www.adobe.com/Extensibility/1.0/

We certainly need some experts knowing what they do :-)

By the way, is the author of this file known ? Maybe he/she could help?

Curious. I am using the same version (0.48.3.1-1.3) and get the

Re: Debian logo svg file is not loadable in Inkscape

2013-01-24 Thread Jakub Wilk

* Filippo Rusconi , 2013-01-24, 17:13:

Investigating a bit, I found that

http://www.adobe.com/AdobeSVGViewerExtensions/3.0/

gives a 404 in my browser. This url is at line 18 of the file.

Same for

http://www.adobe.com/Extensibility/1.0/


That's not a problem. Namespace names are only compared for equality, 
they are never dereferenced.



The problem is that the SVG file in question uses both DTD and 
namespaces, which are known not to play well together. (There might an 
libxml2 bug involved here too, I'm not sure.)


Anywhere, here's how to fix the SVG:

1) apt-get install libxml2-utils sgml-data
2) xmllint --noent openlogo.svg > openlogo-fixed.svg
(Yes it's "noent", not to be confused with "nonet".)
3) Optionally, remove the DTD declaration from the resulting file.

That did the trick ! Thanks a lot. In fact I had set out to remove the
DTD manually, but my first attempts failed. I can see that the DTD
specif went away in the fixed file.

For what it's worth, there is still some adobe-specific metadata cruft
that can be removed with no harm apparently:



http://ns.adobe.com/Variables/1.0/";>


http://ns.adobe.com/GenericCustomNamespace/1.0/"; 
xmlns:v="http://ns.adobe.com/Variables/1.0/"/>


http://ns.adobe.com/SaveForWeb/1.0/";>





Attached to this mail is a version saved with inkscape and edited to
remove any reference to adobe. This new file loads fine in Inkscape,
The Gimp, Iceweasel and... GNU Emacs!

Maybe the folks at debian-...@lists.debian.org might want to give it a
test and replace the old file with this one? Anyhow I now have my
Debian logo for my slides!

Thanks all for helping with this issue.

Bug#698872: Debian logo svg file is not loadable in Inkscape

2013-01-24 Thread Stefano Zacchiroli
Package: www.debian.org

[ reporting this as a bug ]

Heya,
  Filippo Rusconi discovered the .svg of the Debian logo is not loadable
in (some versions of) Inkscape. With the help of Jakub Wilk, the .svg
has been fixed and it's attached to this mail. Can you please update the
published version, when you get around it?

See quoted mailed below, and corresponding thread on -devel [1], for
more information.

Thanks for maintaining www.d.o!
Cheers.

I had overlooked the fact that "serious" means "release critical",
otherwise I'd have given this some more attention.

What happens here is that some pointer/int confusion causes incorrect
output, in the test suite, which causes the package to fail to build, on
a non-release architecture[1]. Since the test suite is run at compile
time, this means the bug does not manifest itself on the architectures
where the package did build, in casu our release architectures.

For that reason, I believe it makes more sense to downgrade the bug
rather than to kick it out of the release, so I've done that.

Having said that, I've contacted upstream; if a complete fix does
materialize before the release (Thorsten's patch only fixes one instance
of that bug, but the bug report hints there may be more), I'll still
upload that, with the hope it'll get accepted...?

[1] In casu, m68k. Yes, I know. Stop looking at me like that.

As jwilk has already mentioned in the bug report, [1] this should be
assigned elsewhere. Though, it is not exactly clear where.

To briefly summarize, the bug is that having bzr-gtk and python-gtk2
installed at the same time causes "pydoc -k foobarbaz" to crash. This
is because pydoc imports all packages in order to find out what
modules they contain. bzr-gtk imports gi.repository.Gtk. This loads
libgtk-3.so.0 and python-gtk2 obviously loads libgtk-2. Presumably any
other python package using GTK+3 would cause this crash, not just
bzr-gtk.

Any guidance would be appreciated.

Thanks for the pointer! I missed this discussion un^Wfortunately.
Anyway, it seems that most people are in favour of this change, and
your message pretty much sums up the reasons.

I'll rest my case and will work a solution into my configuration

This mail would have been a target for the backports users mailinglist.

It helps to read the policy, a security upgrade does not need to reach
testing.

If you want to maintain such a repo, go ahead. I don't think we have the
manpower to maintain another security branch.

NotAutomatic was, but I was talking about ButAutomaticUpdates, which
was introduced more than four years later.

I looked briefly at the RC bug for glpi (#694642). It seems that an
embedded Flash file provided with the package has a security issue.

I have no clue at all if this .swf file is of critical use for GLPI
(from the directory tree, it seems to be provided in a "resource"
directory, so maybe not of big importance).

Still, it would be sad to have GLPI disappear from Debian for this, as
this is one of the good free implementations of computer asset
management systems and quite widely popular in France.

Pierre, have you noticed that? I dont see any contribution of yours in
#694642, so you may have missed this release critical bug
