libc6 2.3.5 ldconfig segfaults on powerpc oldworld

Doesn't apply to us, we don't support upgrades from 2.2 kernels to breezy. =)

Subject: libc6 2.3.5 ldconfig segfaults on powerpc oldworld

Package: libc6
Version: 2.3.5-6
Severity: serious
Architecture: powerpc

Subject says it: while upgrading from a rather dated testing install
(around Apr. 05) with libc6 2.2.5-11.8 to current testing, a number of
things went wrong.

Most notably, upon unpacking libc6 2.3.5-6, the libc6 postinstall failed
with ldconfig segfaulting. This error, in the middle of an upgrade that
required Force-LoopBreak, left me unable to recover normally. I forced the
upgrade to proceed hoping some other package yet to be installed would
restore normal ldconfig function, to no avail.

Unpacking the old 2.2.5-11.8 ldconfig, however, fixed my system perfectly.

Synopsis:

broken ldconfig: from libc6 2.3.5-6 (perhaps earlier versions are also
affected)

working ldconfig: from libc6 2.2.5-11.8

I am running unstable on an Oldworld PowerMac, kernel 2.6.8, and I don't
have any problem.

Your system looks older than a testing from April 2005. libc6 version
2.2.5-11.8 is a libc6 from Woody, an Debian does not support direct
Woody -> Etch upgrade.

This is a rather old version, not even available in Debian Sarge.

I suggest you to upgrade to Debian Sarge first (and also your kernel to
a 2.4 or 2.6 version), before trying to upgrade to testing or unstable.

Bye,
Aurelien

Yes, for both of these reasons, this is not a serious-severity bug.

So please reassign the bug to whatever seems appropriate. Not being able
to upgrade from woody to current testing/unstable is what I'd consider a
bug in its own right.

Besides, what's the proposed fix? etch ldconfig just doesn't work, so what
piece am I missing?

IIRC woody was still stable at that time, so it isn't all that outdated.

Well, apt or dpkg should have figured that out, and warned me off to not
attempt the upgrade, right? Yet another bug.

The system is booted using a floppy, I'm not sure I can even fit a 2.4 or
2.6 kernel on there. Either way, 'you should not try that' is not an
option if there's no warning during the upgrade. Once ldconfig has been
installed, the upgrade is shot. Nice way to tell your average user 'just
wipe the system and install ubuntu'. Debian used to pride itself on being
able to upgrade from oldstable to unstable without a hitch, and I've done
that before, even remotely.

Reassigning to apt, CC to debian-powerpc as a warning to others. Repeat
after me: 'it's not libc's fault if ldconfig breaks'.

The 2.6.8 sarge kernel did fit on a miboot floppy just fine, thank you, miboot
is not in main though because of the apple-owned boot sector we have no
licence for, but you can find it on :

  http://people.debian.org/~luther/miboot

The current 2.6.12 sid kernel is too big by around 200K, but we will work it
to fit on a miboot size again before the etch release, hopefully, and by then
we may even have quik-floppy support or whatever, so ...

Thanks for pointing this out. Now what in libc6 2.3.5 doesn't work anymore
with 2.2 kernels, and why doesn't libc6 test for the running kernel
version before attempting an upgrade?

Should this bug be assigned to apt, or libc6, or what?

I'll try your 2.6.8 sometime; is the stuff required to build miboot
floppies in the powerpc kernel source, and would building a minimal 2.6.13
kernel fit on floppy?

Well, we only really tried miboot in debian-installer setup, and i never
really had success with it with 2.6 floppies, except two mysterious times in
oldenbourg one year ago. We use 2.4 miboot floppies there. There has been some
discussion about using hfs formatted floppies with the kernel on it without
miboot though.

Yes, with 2.6.8 though the box died when switching the framebuffer on or
something.

you need the miboot package from p.d.o/~luther/miboot, and can look at the
instructions on how to use it in the d-i build stuff.

It's seems you are not aware that Sarge is out and is now the stable
version. Debian does not support the upgrade from stable (Woody) to
stable + 2 (the future Etch). You have to upgrade to stable + 1 (Sarge)
to first.

So please upgrade to Sarge first.

Update to Sarge first, and also to a Sarge kernel.

I'm well aware of that, thank you very much.

That's what I've been missing. Please note that this used to be different
in earlier releases, so I had a reasonable expectation this would work.
And there was no warning during the attempted upgrade to make me
reconsider.

> So please upgrade to Sarge first.

What, now that I've already shoehorned testing onto the box? You gotta be
kidding. What would this solve?

Please add a check to libc6 preinst that makes sure the running kernel (as
determined by uname -r, just like is already done for i386, sparc sun4m,
hppa, parisc64, mips and amd64) is recent enough for powerpc ldconfig from
libc6 2.3.5 to work. You have this check for other architectures to
prevent bad things from happening, so apparently permitting ldconfig
breakage on powerpc is a bug, and a serious one at that.

To point out the not-so-obvious: I recovered my system just fine. I ask
for such a check to be added for the next person to upgrade from woody.

I'm willing to help testing just what kernel feature is missing in my
kernel, or what exact kernel version would be OK to use. I indicated as
much in my initial bug report. If you already know the appropriate kernel
versions, why not have that check? If you don't know them, why do you give
me that 'dont do that, stupid' crap instead of taking me up on my offer to
help debug this?

To put this into perspective: I need this old G3 as a fallback developer
machine to debug a problem with nvsetenv on OldWorld, as long as my
PowerBook is being repaired. While updating that G3, I trip over a severe
libc6 bug, and report it. Color me clueless for assuming these reports are
actually welcomed.

I'm getting seriously fed up with this overgrown project. Any other
distributions out there with decent powerpc support?

I know that this may be off-topic for the bug, but just for archiving

Are you talking about the discussion we had on debian-powerpc a few days
ago? If yes, then you perhaps misunderstood what I said.

I said that I the method I use is to take the HFS floppy from woody and
replace its kernel with a new generated, bleeding-edge kernel (taken
directly from Andrew Morton experimental tree).

I just checked and, yes, the fake Finder and System folders *are*
miboot.

For more details, please see the comments I made to myself on

Ok, are you saying that you managed to build miboot floppies using the ol=
d
woody miboot floppies, (i think woody came with do-it-yourself-miboot stu=
ff,
not sure). This would then be a 2.6 kernel. Could you post me the config =
file
for this kernel ?

Could you also try the same kernel with the miboot from
http://people.debain.org/~luther/miboot

Then do :

 gzip -9 vmlinux

 dd if=3D/dev/zero of=3Dmiboot_floppy bs=3D1024 count=3D1440
 hformat -l "miboot floppy" miboot_floppy

 echo device miboot_floppy > miboot.conf
 echo kernel vmlinux.gz root=3D0200 load_ramdisk=3D1 prompt_ramdisk=3D1 d=
evfs=3Dmount debconf/priority=3Dmedium >> miboot.conf
 miboot -c miboot.conf

If this works, it would be nice to do the following :

   objcopy -O aixcoff-rs6000 -R .stab -R .stabstr -R .comment -add-sectio=
n=3Dimage=3Dvmlinux.gz dummy.o vmlinux.gz

just after the gzip step, where dummy.o is taken out of
arch/ppc/boot/openfirmware, you need to do a make zImage to compile it.

mkvmlinuz -a used by d-i currently does this second step, which may be ca=
use
fo this problem.
