Yesterday my machine "ate itself" (though recovery was easy) in that
the update decided to remove debathena-workstation. Here are the
details:
1. On Nov 25 16:44, the machine updated debathena-auto-update:
Preparing to replace debathena-auto-update 1.5~ubuntu8.04 (using .../debathena-auto-update_1.6~ubuntu8.04_all.deb) ...
I believe this update contained a change written by Anders to solve a
previous bug (auto-update can remove openafs-modules-generic). I
reviewed the change at the time but it didn't receive any testing.
2. On Nov 26 11:44, the machine encountered a broken Debathena
dependency and responded by removing debathena-workstation. The
complete log is at the end of this message. I belive the specific
broken dependency has already been addressed by uploading
python-hesiod 0.2.10.
Although I was unable to log in as myself any more, I was still able
to log in remotely as root (yay), and repair the machine by running
"aptitude install debathena-workstation", which executed cleanly. I
didn't even lose my screen session.
As a development refresher, the update script lives in
debathena/config/auto-update/debian/athena-auto-update. The following
code fragment is supposed to protect against metapackage removal but
apparently does not:
v aptitude --quiet --assume-yes keep-all
v aptitude --quiet --assume-yes --schedule-only dist-upgrade
result=$(aptitude -F "%p" search '~i!~VTARGET(^debathena-cluster$ | ^debathena-workstation$ | ^debathena-login$ | ^debathena-standard$ | ^openafs-modules-~D^linux-image-)')
if [ -n "$result" ]; then
echo "** metapackages would be removed by the update, aborting:" $result
v aptitude --quiet --assume-yes keep-all
