ubotuIf you installed a Tribe/Beta/RC version of Ubuntu 7.10 (Gutsy Gibbon) and have been keeping it up to date, then you are already running the latest version of Gutsy. To make sure, type  sudo apt-get update && sudo apt-get dist-upgrade  in a console.01:47

LjLwow, i'm consistently downloading from the ubuntu servers at a speed in excess of 1mb per second... never happened03:36
ikonia_good connection03:36
=== jdong hugs himself
LjLyeah but i usually cannot download that fast from my ISP's own servers... and i'm on fiber optics, it shouldn't that much depend on the time of the day!03:36
LjLbesides, shouldn't the ubuntu servers be loaded :o)03:37
jdongLjL: I've noticed that recently03:37
jdongLjL: the main ubuntu servers all sped up the past month or so03:37
ikonia_not many updates going on though to e honest03:37
ikonia_look at the latest, few hearders03:37
ikonia_very small 03:37
LjLbeta's always like that...03:38
ikonia_not many people doing clean installs possibly down to gusty 03:38
ikonia_headers that should read 03:38
LjLjdong: well i *am* downloading from 4 servers at a time just to make it a faster -- i mean, to spread the load among the servers :)03:38
jdongLjL: ROFL the last time I said that elmo strangled me :D03:38
LjLjdong, i'm not afraid of people 20000km away from me strangling me... :P besides, it makes no sense, because one thing is setting up multiple connections to the *same* server, which is a bad thing to do -- another is to concurrently download from *multiple* servers, which really *does* spread the load and actually does them a favor03:39
jdongLjL: I know your rational and I believe in that too, but the flipside is that it reduces the total number of download slots across all mirrors... and that does not do Ubuntu a favor as a whole03:40
jdongLjL: unless it's release day, it's a nonissue03:40
LjLwell the number of download slots should depend on the bandwidth taken by each, not be independent of that03:41
LjLtheir issue if it is :)03:41
jdonglol, it's slightly dependent on maximum allowed number of clients though03:42
LjLalso, i *do* it on release day, but merely to seed the torrents fast03:42
jdongyeah, I do similar too03:46
jdongand jump on and uncap  my upload on 2 or 3 machines03:46

eidolonre-instate me please.05:59
PriceChildeidolon, you want a test?06:00
eidolonand, does someone have a pointer to a an exact description of this exploit?06:00
eidolonplease.  i changed my connect port to 8001.06:00
LjL!exploit06:00
ubotuThere are people around who think it is funny to abuse a bug in certain routers by sending invalid DCC commands. When bitten by this bug ops in #ubuntu remove users so they are no longer targets. To fix it have a look here: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/FixDCCExploit06:00
eidolonthat web page says -zero- about what the xploit is, and how it works, and what to do about it, thanks, i looked there already.06:00
eidolon"Fix your router" is insufficient information.06:00
LjLeidolon: the exploit simply involves fooling your router into believing that some strings are DCC commands. since some routers think they're so smart that they can parse IRC commands correctly, but aren't, they crash.06:01
PriceChildeidolon, you're unbanned in #ubuntu.06:01
eidolonPriceChild: i got the DCC, nothing happened.06:01
eidolonthankyou.06:01
PriceChildLjL, lets try another -r?06:01
eidolonthat's interesting.  i don't think my router has been crashing.06:01
eidolonthough i suppose it's possible.06:01
PriceChildeidolon, you _were_ affected earlier.06:01
gnomefreakthats why you ended up here :)06:02
eidolonnoted.  was that my router resetting?  or something in xchat?06:02
eidolon*nod* 06:02
eidolonif this is my router whacking out, i'd like to know it :)  i've had problems with my router stopping handing out DHCP leases and if this is the root cause, that'd be nice.06:03

=== Pici thinks its about time LjL got rid of that...
LjLeidolon, router reset, although you might not even notice that outside of the IRC connection06:03
LjL:(06:03
eidolonwell i have a ton of stateful connections (VPN on other machines, plus a bunch of ssh connections)06:03
LjLeidolon, well, maybe on your router only the IRC connection is lost - several different makes are affected, as far as i know06:04
eidolon(sorry if i'm taking up time here, but this is sort of important).  how long has this sploit been running?06:04
eidoloni'm running a linksys wrt54g.06:04

LjLkahrytan has an interesting APT problem on #ubuntu... one third-party package, xwinwrap, initially complained about being half-installed and needing to be reinstalled, but APT didn't have that package available anymore09:59
LjLhe tried reinstalling a fresh copy of it (as did i, and my own installs fine)09:59
LjLand now every apt-get command -- actually, even dpkg -- he types gives a "corrupted package" error10:00
jdongLjL: eep :(10:00
jdongLjL: if you think he is worthy, cjwatson visitation time....10:00
jdongLjL: I would say just edit /var/lib/dpkg/status, but the last time I said that cjwatson killed me10:01
LjLalso this is interesting: it's the output of his "apt-cache show xwinwrap" http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/38840/10:01
jdongsounds like he screwed up the status file10:01
LjLit's it quite remarkable10:01
jdongLjL: yeah, that's DEFINITELY screwed up status file10:01
jdonger: Ubuntu Core Developers <ubuntu-devel-discuss@lists.ubuntu.com>10:01
jdong^^ truncation10:01
LjLjdong, i don't know cjwatson and i never edited a status file... if you could put him in contact, or have a hint10:01
LjLi can understand "edit the status file", but i'd have no idea what to put in it :)10:02
jdongLjL: I'm not sure if Colin would appreciate being the status-file-fixing drone particularly during the release cycle...10:02
jdongand editing the file manually is also beyond my area of expertise10:03
LjLindeed, i don't even ping people i know about that sort of things, much less so people i don't know10:03
jdongLjL: there should be a /var/lib/dpkg/status.old file10:03
LjLwouldn't there be a "regenerate status file" command?10:03
jdongLjL: have him first back up his current status, then copy status.old onto status10:03
jdongand see if that solves it10:03
jribI had someone with a missing new line in the status file that totally messed up apt as well10:04
jdongstatus-old rather10:04
LjLjdong: uhm i'll try. but i see that, on my box, the *only* difference between status and statu-old is the *one* last package that i installed10:04
LjLsince he already messed up with a couple of apt-get commands, i'm afraid even his status-old is borked now10:04
jdongLjL: that's my worry too10:04
jdongPackage: readlinE: Handler silently failed10:04
jdong^^ looks like multiple problems10:05
jdongworth a shot though10:05
LjLdo you think there is a difference between the 'status' file and the concatenation of all 'Packages' files from the repositories?10:07
LjLit looks very much like those to me10:07
LjLah well right, it has the... status too10:07
LjLduh10:07
jdongLjL: lol if you've installed every package ;-)10:08
jdongLjL: keescook IIRC posted something on planet recently for reconstructing apt commands from dpkg.log10:08
LjLjdong: random launchpad googling also gives a "dpkg --clear-avail" suggestion10:09
jdonghttp://www.outflux.net/blog/archives/2007/09/26/stupid-dpkg-tricks-when-fighting-xfs-bugs/10:10
jdongthat can be used if the status file is too old10:10
jdongI'm disappointed Debian doesn't rotate and back up a few more status/available files10:10
jdongthat's the achilles heel of APT10:10
jdonghe'd want just install instead of --reinstall10:11
LjLwell, the achilles heel of APT in general is that it doesn't have "memory protection"10:11
LjLi don't really mean it, but i mean, like a kernel that has memory protection can't be taken down by its processes, APT shouldn't be able to be taken down by its packages10:11
jdongLjL: APT is indeed weak against badly made packages, along with other mishaps10:12
LjLthat requires dpkg --get-selections to work jdong, and i've just asked him if it does10:12
jdongLjL: nah, that's just a few of the comments' versions; using a variant of Kees's original method and dpkg.log.*, one can theoretically regenerate all the APT commands ever issued from day zero10:13
LjLafter all...10:13
jdongeffectively regenerating a brand new status file10:13
LjLperhaps the best bet would be just to have the status file in front of me, and fix it by hand10:13
LjLand "by ear"10:13
jdongyeah, perhaps have him e-mail it to you then you can poke at it in an editor10:13
LjLhm well yes, i see what you mean there10:13
LjLbut i also think it's beyond my greppesed sk1llz10:14
LjL:P10:14
jdongmine too :)10:14
LjLasked him to send status via mail10:15
jdongexcellent10:17
LjLhe's complaining it's too big though, let's see after he gzips...10:18
LjL(and honestly i have no idea what's the limit on my mailbox either =)10:18
jdongtypically corrupted dpkg status files should NEVER happen unless he has either (a) SIGKILL'ed dpkg/apt (b) done a hard reset while dpkg was running10:18
jdongand many versions of automatix2 did (a) so.....10:18
LjLwhich is my favorite hobby10:18
LjLi mean, both a and b, depending on my mood10:19
jdonglol :)10:19
jdongtry to do both at the same itme!10:19
LjLnah10:19
LjLi was thinking about disconnecting the IDE cable to the HD while dpkg was running10:19
jdonglol10:19
LjLhe said he's fixed it10:20
LjLby manually removing the xwinwarp entry from status10:20
LjLi'm not entirely sure it was the only thing that had to be fixed, but... he says it works now10:21
jdongLjL: well that's good I guess, though tell him to erase his memory and never ever mention editing the status file ever again :)10:21
LjLhaha10:21
jdongapparently it's one of the big deadly Debian sins10:21
jdongyou know it's bad when you get an all-caps message from a TB member!10:22
anthonyhaha10:22
LjLi should perhaps mention to him that he probably has files from that package hanging around10:22
LjLthat will be forgotten for all eternity10:22
LjLbut perhaps he doesn't need to know10:22
LjL=)10:22
LjLjdong: what's their stance on adding "exit 0" at the beginning of postinst/postrm scripts? :P10:22
jdongpreferred to editing the status file to deal with dpkg breakage loops10:23
jdongbut of course done with a brain (i.e. manually perform the IMPORTANT actions of the scripts)10:23
LjLah good, 'cause i have no idea what else to do with some broken packages from *universe* sometimes. and i'm saying universe, not automatixlolandia or godknowswhat :P10:24
jdongyeah, Universe sometimes has packages like that, because the less-cared-about packages tend to just be blindly-synced from an arbitrary sid date.10:24
jdongI remember from some anti-Ubuntu information in Warty days someone did an install/remove test across universe, and on the order of 600 packages failed a simple install/uninstall cycle test.10:26
LjLjdong: i understand that but i always wondered whether they couldn't do a basic sanity check by performing installation and removal of each package10:26
LjLi mean, automatically of course, on a dedicated machine10:26
LjLi'd assume canonical would have one =)10:26
jdongright; I believe that should be a standard test by the build daemons10:26
jdongat least try a noninteractive-frontend installtest before calling the build success10:26
LjL[22:25:52]  <kahrytan> LjL,  moved the deb file when it was installinh?10:26
LjLehm10:26
LjLcould this be a valid reason why the status file could break?10:27
jdongI don't find it terribly plausible10:27
jdongdpkg should keep an open handle to the file throughout the procedure10:27
LjLclaims he's the only "fishy" thing he did10:27
LjLit's, even10:27
jdongthough I am not a dpkg expert10:27
jdongnonetheless, that still sounds like a bad idea :)10:28
LjLyeah i did tell him that ;)10:30
LjLthis shouldn't be the channel for these things though...10:34

LjLyou just gave us a perfect explanation11:11

gnomefreakjust a hint11:12

ompaulgnomefreak, eh there was a ban 11:13
winbondno he banned me 11:13
winbondi can read11:13
ompaulthe ban was based on repeated asking how many channels freenode has11:13
ompaulhaving been advised that winbond was on the wrong channel11:13
ompaulthis advise was ignored11:13
LjLthe answer to which is, many, yet too few for trolls to be unlikely to end up on any given channel11:13
ompaulso what could I do 11:13
gnomefreakompaul: from what i was reading you removed him and since he went to LjL for unban figured LjL banned him11:13
ompaulahh11:14
ompaulwell 11:14
gnomefreakim caught up for most part11:14
winbondyeah, and the repeat was only like 3 times, and it wasnt my fault, 11:14
ompaulwinbond, rubbish11:14
LjLgnomefreak, no, it's just that the same repeating happened in #kubuntu while i was looking, and he claimed it was due to a Konversation glitch -- so later he asked to be unbanned from #ubuntu, since the same thing had happened11:14

NickPrestaLjL, okay. Allow me to reconnect again..12:36
LjLoriez, two possible fixes for you:12:36
LjL1) try adding the "noapic" kernel option to your kernel, it's done like this12:37
LjL!boot12:37
ubotuBoot options: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/BootOptions - To add/remove startup services, you can use the package 'bum', or update-rc.d - To add your own startup scripts, use /etc/rc.local - See also !grub and !dualboot - Making a boot floppy: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/GrubHowto/BootFloppy - Also see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/SmartBootManagerHowto12:37
LjL2) if that fails, try blacklisting the ipw3945 module, which is done like this12:37
LjL!blacklist12:37
ubotuTo blacklist a module, edit /etc/modprobe.d/my_blacklist and add  blacklist <modulename>  to the end of that list - To explicitly load modules in a specific order, list them in /etc/initramfs-tools/modules and type  sudo update-initramfs -u 12:37

LjLoriez: wait until your Ubuntu starts booting. if you don't usually see a menu, then hit Esc until you do. when you see it, hit the "E" key. then go to the longest line, and hit "E" again. type " noapic" with a space before the word. then hit "B". see if it fixes it12:41
