| ubottu | linux-image-generic (source: linux-meta): Generic Linux kernel image. In component main, is optional. Version 5.2.0.8.9 (eoan), package size 2 kB, installed size 15 kB | 09:08 |
| Kow | hey anyone getting massive man-db corruption issues ever since 2.8.6-1 was pushed into eoan repos on 8/3? | 14:02 |
| Kow | Issue just started yesterday... so immediately I checked and sure enough there was a man-db update | 14:02 |
| Kow | I will revert to prior version and see if issue disappears | 14:03 |
| Kow | the result is a segfault - probably because man-db is leaking tons of memory when it's processing all these corrupted files | 14:03 |
| Kow | (or what it sees as corrupted anyways) | 14:03 |
| TJ- | Bug #1838871 | 14:06 |
| ubottu | bug 1838871 in man-db (Ubuntu) "man-db segmentation fault after processing trigger" [Undecided,New] https://launchpad.net/bugs/1838871 | 14:06 |
| Kow | thanks TJ... I'm not the greatest at finding bugs in launchpad, more of a debian person myself | 14:07 |
| Kow | having said that, this is probably an upstream issue assuming ubuntu just pulled from deb repos | 14:07 |
| Kow | time to follow the cookie crumbs | 14:08 |
| TJ- | it does look that way... I'd 'ping' cjwatson in #ubuntu-devel | 14:08 |
| Kow | found it | 14:08 |
| Kow | I'll try and link it to the deb bug | 14:08 |
| Kow | really debian needs to fix this... or the actual package maintainer | 14:09 |
| Kow | sorry, the actual developer of man-db - this stinks like an issue with the actual source itself and not package or distro specific | 14:09 |
| TJ- | yes, cjwatson! https://metadata.ftp-master.debian.org/changelogs//main/m/man-db/man-db_2.8.6-1_changelog | 14:10 |
| TJ- | it shouldn't have got into the archives like this - tests should have detected the issue | 14:10 |
| Kow | I am surprised they put a major version release directly into unstable | 14:12 |
| Kow | there is a reason experimental exists :P | 14:13 |
| Kow | oh Colin is the dev haha alright, well this should be well on the way to getting resolved then | 14:14 |
