Package: debian-edu-config Severity: important Version: 1.929On Debian Edu stretch, the proxy settings do not get updated from WPAD. Cause is the wpad-extract script in /usr/share/debian-edu-config/tools. It returns nothing when executed.A simple fix seems to be to backport this commit to d-e-c in Debian stretch: https://anonscm.debian.org/cgit/debian-edu/debian-edu-config.git/commit/?id=a06147029201686d5401d50f8ba3 Plus adding libpacparser1 under Depends: of d-e-c. Greets, Mike
I'd like to prepare a stretch-pu upload of d-e-c with that wpad-extract script fixed. (Do you also observe it as broken on a Debian Edu stretch system?)
Would there be other atomic fixes that are valid for a stretch-pu?Could you please comment on the reason behind switching from "proxy" to "pactester" in wpad-extract?
(We need a good reason for the release team...). See our IRC backlog as reference regarding the above issue: ``` 12:53 < sunweaver> h01ger: hi! 12:53 < sunweaver> schweer ist not around... hmmm...12:53 < sunweaver> anyway... https://anonscm.debian.org/cgit/debian-edu/debian-edu-config.git/commit/?id=a06147029201686d5401d50f8ba32cd9cd9f7093 12:54 < sunweaver> we noticed that update-proxy-from-wpad script is broken on stretch, well, ... because wpad-extract is broken on stretch. 12:54 < sunweaver> that script is required for having correct proxy settings in APT, environment, etc.
12:55 < sunweaver> I'd like to backport the above patch to d-e-c in stretch.12:55 < sunweaver> have others come across this issue already? Was it under discussion already?
12:56 * sunweaver files a bug for now... 12:58 < h01ger> is the issue fixed in sid?12:59 < sunweaver> h01ger: I haven't tested a sid system, but I cherry-picked the above commit into a live stretch system and the issue is then resolved.

[...]13:05 < h01ger> is there a bug number for wpad-extract being broken in stretch?
13:05 < sunweaver> wpad-extract is a script in d-e-c 13:05 < h01ger> ah 13:05 < sunweaver> and #888829 _is_ the bug. 13:05 < h01ger> fixes with new depends are also "hmmm"/not the most welcomed 13:06 < sunweaver> which sunweaver is aware of...13:06 < sunweaver> the current (stretch) version has some KDE3 junk in it that schweer gratefully removed. 13:06 < sunweaver> I'd love to hear from him, why he chose the switch to pactester. 13:07 < sunweaver> I guess it is on him to... he may have had good reason to switch to another tool. 13:07 < h01ger> the fix for #888829 looks ok, but i'm not a stable release manager… so you will need to file a bug against release.debian.org (best using reportbug) to get d-e-c updated
13:08 < sunweaver> h01ger: I have your go to handle the stretch-pu? 13:09 < sunweaver> I will wait for schweers feedback for now...13:09 < h01ger> yes. but please start by filing a bug against release.debian.org… and maybe first a stretch-pu branch (in d-e-c) until you get a go, at which time you can upload and move the branch to stretch
13:09 < sunweaver> yes.13:10 < h01ger> (and when you file this bug include the complete proposed debdiff in it…) 13:10 < sunweaver> ok with you, to copy+paste our chat backlog to the bug as schweer is offline?
13:10 < sunweaver> of course! same as with any other pu... 13:10 < h01ger> yup ``` Best, Mike -- DAS-NETZWERKTEAM mike gabriel, herweg 7, 24357 fleckeby mobile: +49 (1520) 1976 148 landline: +49 (4354) 8390 139 GnuPG Fingerprint: 9BFB AEE8 6C0A A5FF BF22 0782 9AF4 6B30 2577 1B31 mail: mike.gabriel@das-netzwerkteam.de, http://das-netzwerkteam.de
