The problem was the handling of merge failures in three way merges, ucf used to just pass the error through to the maintainer script, and so a merge failure resulted in a maintainer script failure, which could cascade in a upgrade. However, trapping the error, and showing it via debconf, and then returning to the ucf debconf menu allows users to resolve this issue as they please. This patch implements that. Bug fix: "three-way-merge errors cause upgrade pains", thanks to Steve Langasek (Closes: #543593). ucf (3.0020) unstable; urgency=low * [cdeb86b]: Sleep for 3 seconds after emitting warning When there is no tty present (which means we cannot attach to the keyboard), and there is no DISPLAY set, which means we cannopt fire off another window, we cannot fork off a shell. This is not a bug, really, but merely a reality. This patch sleeps for a couple of seconds so that the error message we dump on STDERR can be read. Bug fix: "ucf can't start subshell", thanks to Matthew Gabeler-Lee (Closes: #543367). ucf (3.0019) unstable; urgency=low * Disable invalid Italian translation that collides with the translation for another string, thanks to Steve Langasek.

Bug fix: "Italian translation fails to distinguish between two options", thanks to Steve Langasek (Closes: #543161). ucf (3.0018) unstable; urgency=low * Update the package priority, it is now standard, not optional. * [d984e79]: Do not restore $@ until after sanity checks. Bug fix: "Need exactly two arguments, got 3", thanks to Kurt Roeckx (Closes: #520626). ucf (3.0017) unstable; urgency=low * [989de4e]: No longer use a non debconf method to prompt the user Also, only run bash directly is the script has a terminal backend. Failing that, if DISPLAY is set, try to start a terminal emulator. If there is no tty and no DISPLAY, gibber and do nothing. * [6e5ba1b]: Save and restore command line arguments after parsing This way, when the script is called again under debconf, the command line arguments are still around, and have not been eliminated during parsing. And no, getopt was not to blame, ucf was nuking the commandline itself. Bug fix: "ucf was run from a maintainer script that uses debconf [...]", thanks to Michael Prokop (Closes: #512832). * [ea1c15d]: Stash any configuration file less than 25KB in size Also, allow the three way merge options whenever there is a stashed version of the file, whether or not the package maintainer has explicitly asked for a three way capability. This way, are closer to making three way capabilities the default, except for large configuration files, where large is defined as 25 KB. ucf (3.0016) unstable; urgency=low * [bd1dfcb]: Substitute the ucf/show_diff DIFF variable contents to protect sensitive data. The previous fix said "reset diff question after use so contents are not written to disk". Unfortunately this is not enough (or even needed): the sensitive data is not stored in the value of ucf/show_diff, but in the DIFF variable associated with it. Bug fix: "ucf stores diff (of private files) in debconf (world readable)" Closes: Bug#511893 Author: Niko Tyni <ntyni@debian.org> * [f5cbbdf]: Show the differences on the first try Until 3.0012, ucf/show_diff was reset just before showing it to the user. This would unset the 'seen' flag properly. However, moving the db_reset call after db_input made the latter skip the note on the first time if the 'seen' flag was already set. To make things worse, Debconf::ConfModule::finish() sets the 'seen' flag for all the questions it has handled before exiting, so the flag was always true after debconf exited. Simply unsetting the flag before db_input fixes this. Bug fix: "skips differences on the first try", thanks to Niko Tyni (Closes: #514071). * [debiandir:dce60af]: Update the location of the copyright file Since I have not elected to license this under later versions of the GPL, the license link in the copyright fle must change. * Updated lintian overrides to shut lintian up. ucf (3.0015) unstable; urgency=low * [e63973f]: Use which, not type -a -p Although the 'type' command is used by /usr/bin/ucf, a 'type' built-in command cannot be used by posh. It is safer to use '/bin/which' contained in debianutils. Bug fix: "Shell which cannot use the type command", thanks to Jonny Closes: Bug#513755 ucf (3.0014) unstable; urgency=low * [bd4d0af]: Short circuit if we are purging (no need to invoke debconf) Also, since we do not have two arguments when we are purging, move the new file processing to after the point where we exit in purge mode. Bug fix: "subprocess post-removal script returned error exit status 20", thanks to Bastian Blank (Closes: #512903). ucf (3.0013) unstable; urgency=low * [99736cc]: Move the debconf stuff _after_ command line parsing If it is done earlier, the DEBCONF_OK flag is not set yet. This is majorly bad. Closes: Bug#512905 Bug fix: "ucf was run from a maintainer script that uses debconf [...]", thanks to Michael Prokop (Closes: #512832). * [67e17f1]: Load confmodule to define db_* commands even when !DEBCONF_OK It is OK to load confmodule, which allows db_* commands to be defined, since this is not what was causing the previous failure. We should not, however, try to load the template files, which _did_ actually cause the failure. Bug fix: "command not found", thanks to Michael Prokop (Closes: #512833). ucf (3.0012) unstable; urgency=low * [29fbb69]: reset diff question after use so contents are not written to disk Debconf does not use world readable "temporary internal files" as Manoj hypothesises. Data is only written to disk if it is left in the debconf database when the frontend (ucf) exits. Tightening the permissions on the debconf database would break several things including use of debconf-show in reportbug. From 27b3c41c531016ffa506987bf4a856345992a204 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Joey Hess <joey@gnu.kitenet.net> Date: Wed, 21 Jan 2009 13:03:55 -0500 Subject: [PATCH] reset diff question after use so contents are not written to disk Closes: Bug#511893 * [9eb5118]: ucf uses debconf even if called without --debconf-ok and hangs ucf, even if is called without --debconf-ok, uses debconf and hangs if db_stop had been already called, since it tries to load /usr/share/debconf/confmodule and loads the ucf debconf templates. This is a minimal change, and just moves the test of DEBCONF_OK earlier. Thanks to Robert Luberda for the report and suggested fix. Closes: Bug#511031 * [26a61b8]: Start issueing a diagnostic if ucf is forced to not use debconf If ucf is called without the --debconf-ok switch, and debconf is started, issue a diagnostic, and use old style promping on the command line. This is a policy violation, and soon the non- debconf prompting shall be removed. * [3ce2104]: Rearrange code for readability, and add comment blocks Signed-off-by:

ucf (3.0011) unstable; urgency=low
* [debiandir:8949365] Fix VCS-Browser URL
* [debiandir:ede9c73] Do not depend on cdebconf as an alternative
ucf relies heavily on debconf to do its job, and thus depends on it. Way
back when, it was told to me that we arte going to move to cdebconf,
which at some point will be the preferred way. In the meantime, to
facilitate the future transition, we should all depend on
debconf | cdebconf
to make life in the future easier.
Now, as of version 3.005, ucf started using a feaure that has long been a
part of cdebconf, but was only ported to debconf in version 1.5.19, so
now ucf started depending on:
debconf (>= 1.5.19) | cdebconf
and this is where trouble beings.
Suppose a machine running stable has cdebconf installed. It also has an
old version of debconf installed, say, one that is older than
1.5.19. Since cdebconf was installed, the dependency requirements are
fully satisfied, so debconf was not updated.
Now, ucf follows the instructions in debconf-devel(7) -- and that just
uses debconf, the older version which does nothave support for the
feature ucf needs. Boom, there goes the update.
This is a grave bug.
Bug fix: "ucf fails on db_x_loadtemplatefile", thanks to Wichert
Akkerman (Closes: #507043).

* There was an issue that using the sdiff or diff options of ucf would
either error out, or would hang due to a communication snafu with
debconf. This fix handles exceptional sizes of diff output, correcting
both issues. This is an important bug fix meant for Lenny.
Closes: #486702, #490034
* The current Catalan translation of UCF has a few usability problems,
namely the same translation for all 3 different diff options. The
result is that you are presented with the same option twice in many
cases, and can't tell the difference between them. This i18n update
fixes that issue. Closes: #497391

Closes: #464238
* Add a new --debconf-template option to specify an alternate
caller-provided debconf template for the user prompt. Heavy lifting
done by Steve Langasek. This was apparently done to allow grub in
Ubuntu to manage partial file fragments. Closes: #456241.
* Use db_x_loadtemplatefile instead of debconf-loadtemplates for template
loading, and depend on debconf (>= 1.5.19) | cdebconf for the
implementation. Thanks to Steve Langasek. Closes: #424926
* Drop the Recommends: debconf-utils now that it's no longer used.
* Instead of proceeding merrily on our way if the three way merge fails,
we now leave the dest file unchanged, leave the mess in the new file
(foo.ucf-new), tell the user about it, and abort the upgrade by
exiting with exit 3. We still psit out an error about conflicts.
Hopefully, this adequately resolves the bug. Closes: #456245
ucf (3.004) unstable; urgency=high
* For "keep current" and "threeway merge", ucf expects answers from
debconf which differ from what is specified in the template
master. Frans Pop suggested using the Choices-C feature of debconf,
which is relatively new, but defines a fixed alias for each option
which Debconf will then use in db_get and db_set operations -- so no
more matching the template in the code. He also kindly provided a
working patch. Updated versioned dependency on debconf to reflect the
need for a new version. Closes: #443179, #449274, #453084

to Yuri Kozlov (Closes: #421141).
* Bug fix: "ucf: should use debconf to display the diff results", thanks
to Gustavo Noronha Silva. Users using a Graphical frontend are
surprised when the display apparently just blocks when they ask to see
a diff (or 3-way diff) of the configuration file being handled, when
actually the diff is displayed on the terminal window ucf was run
on. Until the debconf-escape utility and the escape CAPB support,
db_subst ran into newline and line length issues. Patch from Michael
Vogt. (Closes: #325576).
* From Michael Vogt's patch: use a debconf note for the diff. updated
dependency of debconf to 1.4.72 (this is the version that supports the
"escape" capability)
* Left in the debconf-2.0 as is, since I am assuming anything that
provides debconf-2.0 should be a drop in replacement, or that should
be considered a bug. This is a change from Michael Vogt's patch.

manual page now has a reference to ucfr and ucfq. I d not think,
however, that this merits a NEWS file: the vast majority of users who
install ucf do so since it is pulled in as a dependency, and they
don't care a white about ucfr being added. The only people who might
care are people who use ucf to manage configuration files, and that is
a very small number. NEWS items should be relegated to important
information that may affect the majority of installations; and this
does not fit the bill.

Joey Hess <joeyh@debian.org>
* Added debconf support to ucf. It will use debconf for prompting.
* Since some badly behaved maintainer scripts use debconf, then cripple it
(by calling STOP, redirecting stdio, etc), and then call ucf, ucf must
take care to not use debconf if called from such a script. In this case it
will fall back to prompting without using debconf, unless a --debconf-ok
parameter is given, to let ucf know that the maintainer script
promises it has not screwed up debconf.
* Update ucf.1
* Since the above hack means that ucf retains the ability to prompt
on its own, I made it not depend on debconf at all; if debconf is not
present then ucf will fall back to its internal prompter. closes: Bug#234151
