Bug#673534: reportbug: supplying an e-mail address should be optional, not required

Bug#670712: Info hash already used by another torrent.

2012-05-18 Thread marc . carter-ceqosy2
I'm not sure if this is related or gives insight, but I should add that the following warning appears everytime rtorrent launches: "Info hash already used by another torrent." It seems harmless, and eventually goes away. I'm certainly not doing anything that would cause multiple torrents to u

Bug#670712: graceful termination also causes metadata loss

2012-05-17 Thread marc . carter-ceqosy2
I have now observed the same dataloss when the shutdown is non-interactive but graceful. Specifically, I ran: pkill -SIGINT rtorrent from the commandline. The text during shutdown appeared to mirror that of using control-q. Then restarted with: rtorrent -o check_hash=no,enable_trackers=no

Bug#670712: rtorrent: Ratio loss

2012-05-16 Thread marc . carter-ceqosy2
>Do you mean a shutdown and restart of the whole machine, or just >rtorrent? How do you quit rtorrent? Sometimes I exit gracefully (control-q), and sometimes I abruptly do a "sudo shutdown -h now". I have just confirmed that the ratio loss certainly occurs on abrupt shutdowns. A torrent had a ra

Bug#670712: rtorrent: Ratio loss

2012-05-16 Thread marc . carter-ceqosy2
This is not just a loss of the upload count. The torrent session that just lost the upload count also lost the file-specific priority settings. The file priority can be "off", "high", or nothing. Some files were "off", but were reset back to (nothing). -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to debian-bu

Bug#668807: the severity should be reduced

2012-04-14 Thread marc . carter-ceqosy2
After further investigation, the example usage does not conform to the latest (apparently newly changed) syntax. That is, a "--" is now needed before addresses. So the correct command would be: mutt -a $HOME/.bashrc -s "trying to send a file" -- mym...@email.com <<< "simply sending a file" a

Bug#668094: boundary testing

2012-04-09 Thread marc . carter-ceqosy2
I've discovered how to reproduce this without messing with gnome-terminal settings. Start by passing a very wide parameter to multitail: multitail -sw 500,10 -R 15 -l ls -R 45 -l ls This (correctly) gives an error which indicates the width limit: --*- multitail 5.2.2 (C) 2003-2007 by folk.

Bug#668094: Gnome Terminal version 2.30.2

2012-04-09 Thread marc . carter-ceqosy2
Sorry Folkert, that was a typo. I meant to say the "-sw 120,80" option causes the problem, but changing it to "-sw 70,80" resolves the problem. So the bug is related to size constraints. After further experimentation, I've found that it's not reproducable within my customized gnome-terminal sett

Bug#668094: more specifics

2012-04-08 Thread marc . carter-ceqosy2
After experimenting with all the options, I've discovered that the segfault is related to the "-sw 120,80" option. I was able to work around the segfault by changing it to "-sw 120,80". My terminal font in the new squeeze installation seems to be bigger, which means I have fewer characters. It s
