Dirk Eddelbuettel: RcppFarmHash 0.0.2: Maintenance

A minor maintenance release of the new package RcppFarmHash, first released in version 0.0.1 a week ago, is now on CRAN in an version 0.0.2. RcppFarmHash wraps the Google FarmHash family of hash functions (written by Geoff Pike and contributors) that are used for example by Google BigQuery for the FARM_FINGERPRINT digest. This releases adds a #define which was needed on everybody s favourite CRAN platform to not attempt to include a missing header endian.h. With this added #define all is well as we can already tell from looking at the CRAN status where the three machines maintained by you-may-know-who have already built the package. The others will follow over the next few days. I also tweeted about the upload with a screenshot demonstrating an eight minute passage from upload to acceptance with the added #ThankYouCRAN tag to say thanks for very smooth and fully automated processing at their end. The very brief NEWS entry follows:

Changes in version 0.0.2 (2021-08-02)
  • On SunOS, set endianness to not error on #include endian.h
  • Add badges and installation notes to README as package is on CRAN

Dirk Eddelbuettel: RcppFarmHash 0.0.1: New CRAN Package

A new package RcppFarmHash is now on CRAN in an inaugural version 0.0.1. RcppFarmHash wraps the Google FarmHash family of hash functions (written by Geoff Pike and contributors) that are used for example by Google BigQuery for the FARM_FINGERPRINT. The package was prepared and uploaded yesterday afternoon, and to my surprise already on CRAN this (early) morning when I got up. So here is another #ThankYouCRAN for very smoothing operations. The very brief NEWS entry follows:

Changes in version 0.0.1 (2021-07-25)
  • Initial version and CRAN upload

Chris Lamb: Free software activities in February 2021

Here is my monthly update covering what I have been doing in the free software world during February 2021 (previous month):

Reproducible Builds The motivation behind the Reproducible Builds effort is to ensure no flaws have been introduced during compilation process by promising identical results are always generated from a given source, therefore allowing multiple third-parties to come to a consensus on whether a build was compromised. The project is proud to be a member project of the Software Freedom Conservancy. Conservancy acts as a corporate umbrella allowing projects to operate as non-profit initiatives without managing their own corporate structure. If you like the work of the Conservancy or the Reproducible Builds project, please consider becoming an official supporter. This month, I: I also made the following changes to diffoscope, including preparing and uploading versions 167 and 168 to Debian:

Debian Uploads I also sponsored an upload of adminer (4.7.9-1) for Alexandre Rossi. Debian LTS This month I have worked 18 hours on Debian Long Term Support (LTS) and 12 hours on its sister Extended LTS project. You can find out more about the project via the following video:

Christian Kastner: qemu-sbuild-utils merged into sbuild

qemu-sbuild-utils have been merged into sbuild and are now shipped as package sbuild-qemu. The executables have been renamed from qemu-sbuild-* to sbuild-qemu-*, to be consisent with the other utilities provided by sbuild. I may or may not have botched the transitional dummy package, but as the original package never migrated to testing (this was deliberate) and popcon was low, I'm confident that people will manage. sbuild-qemu depends on the recently uploaded vdbm2, which added support for arm64, armhf, and ppc64el images. This is really exciting, as this means that sbuild-qemu and autopkgtest will soon be able to build for and test on most of the officially supported architectures, all from one host machine. MRs to enable these new features in autopkgtest have already been filed by Ryutaro Matsumoto. Support for the armel architecture is being discussed; support for the MIPS architectures is a more complicated issue, as they don't use GRUB. I'd like to thank Johannes Schauer for reaching out, initiating discussion, and collaborating on this merge!

Jonathan McDowell: DeskPi Pro + 8GB Pi 4

DeskPi Pro Raspberry Pi case Despite having worked on a number of ARM platforms I ve never actually had an ARM based development box at home. I have a Raspberry Pi B Classic (the original 256MB rev 0002 variant) a coworker gave me some years ago, but it s not what you d choose for a build machine and generally gets used as a self contained TFTP/console server for hooking up to devices under test. Mostly I ve been able to do kernel development with the cross compilers already built as part of Debian, and either use pre-built images or Debian directly when I need userland pieces. At a previous job I had a Marvell MACCHIATObin available to me, which works out as a nice platform - quad core A72 @ 2GHz with 16GB RAM, proper SATA and a PCIe slot. However they re still a bit pricey for a casual home machine. I really like the look of the HoneyComb LX2 - 16 A72 cores, up to 64GB RAM - but it s even more expensive. So when I saw the existence of the 8GB Raspberry Pi 4 I was interested. Firstly, the Pi 4 is a proper 64 bit device (my existing Pi B is ARMv6 which means it needs to run Raspbian instead of native Debian armhf), capable of running an upstream kernel and unmodified Debian userspace. Secondly the Pi 4 has a USB 3 controller sitting on a PCIe bus rather than just the limited SoC USB 2 controller. It s not SATA, but it s still a fairly decent method of attaching some storage that s faster/more reliable than an SD card. Finally 8GB RAM is starting to get to a decent amount - for a headless build box 4GB is probably generally enough, but I wanted some headroom. The Pi comes as a bare board, so I needed a case. Ideally I wanted something self contained that could take the Pi, provide a USB/SATA adaptor and take the drive too. I came across the pre-order for the DeskPi Pro, decided it was the sort of thing I was after, and ordered one towards the end of September. It finally arrived at the start of December, at which point I got round to ordering a Pi 4 from CPC. Total cost ~ 120 for the case + Pi.

The Bad First, let s get the bad parts out of the way. Broken USB port (right) I managed to break a USB port on the Desk Pi. It has a pair of forward facing ports, I plugged my wireless keyboard dongle into it and when trying to remove it the solid spacer bit in the socket broke off. I ve never had this happen to me before and I ve been using USB devices for 20 years, so I m putting the blame on a shoddy socket. The first drive I tried was an old Crucial M500 mSATA device. I have an adaptor that makes it look like a normal 2.5 drive so I used that. Unfortunately it resulted in a boot loop; the Pi would boot its initial firmware, try to talk to the drive and then reboot before even loading Linux. The DeskPi Pro comes with an m2 adaptor and I had a spare m2 drive, so I tried that and it all worked fine. This might just be power issues, but it was an unfortunate experience especially after the USB port had broken off. (Given I ended up using an M.2 drive another case option would have been the Argon ONE M.2, which is a bit more compact.)

The Annoying DeskPi Pro without rear bezel The case is a little snug; I was worried I was going to damage things as I slid it in. Additionally the construction process is a little involved. There s a good set of instructions, but there are a lot of pieces and screws involved. This includes a couple of FFC cables to join things up. I think this is because they ve attempted to make a compact case rather than allowing a little extra room, and it does have the advantage that once assembled it feels robust without anything loose in it. DeskPi Pro with rear bezel and USB3 dongle I hate the need for an external USB3 dongle to bridge from the Pi to the USB/SATA adaptor. All the cases I ve seen with an internal drive bay have to do this, because the USB3 isn t brought out internally by the Pi, but it just looks ugly to me. It s hidden at the back, but meh. Fan control is via a USB/serial device, which is fine, but it attaches to the USB C power port which defaults to being a USB peripheral. Raspbian based kernels support device tree overlays which allows easy reconfiguration to host mode, but for a Debian based system I ended up rolling my own dtb file. I changed
#include "bcm283x-rpi-usb-peripheral.dtsi"
to
#include "bcm283x-rpi-usb-host.dtsi"
in arch/arm/boot/dts/bcm2711-rpi-4-b.dts and then I did:
cpp -nostdinc -I include -I arch -undef -x assembler-with-cpp \
    arch/arm/boot/dts/bcm2711-rpi-4-b.dts > rpi4.preprocessed
dtc -I dts -O dtb rpi4.preprocessed -o bcm2711-rpi-4-b.dtb
and the resulting bcm2711-rpi-4-b.dtb file replaced the one in /boot/firmware. This isn t a necessary step if you don t want to use the cooling fan in the case, or the front USB ports, and it s not really anyone s fault, but it was an annoying extra step to have to figure out. The DeskPi came with a microSD card that was supposed to have RaspiOS already on it. It didn t, it was blank. In my case that was fine, because I wanted to use Debian, but it was a minor niggle.

The Good I used Gunnar s pre-built Pi Debian image and it Just Worked; I dd d it to the microSD as instructed and the Pi 4 came up with working wifi, video and USB enabling me to get it configured for my network. I did an apt upgrade and got updated to the Buster 10.7 release, as well as the latest 5.9 backport kernel, and everything came back without effort after a reboot. It s lovely to be able to run Debian on this device without having to futz around with self-compiled kernels. The DeskPi makes a lot of effort to route things externally. The SD slot is brought out to the front, making it easy to fiddle with the card contents without having to open the case to replace it. All the important ports are brought out to the back either through orientation of the Pi, or extenders in the case. That means the built in Pi USB ports, the HDMI sockets (conveniently converted to full size internally), an audio jack and a USB-C power port. The aforementioned USB3 dongle for the bridge to the drive is the only external thing that s annoying. Thermally things seem good too. I haven t done a full torture test yet, but with the fan off the system is sitting at about 40 C while fairly idle. Some loops in bash that push load up to above 2 get the temperature up to 46 C or so, and turning the fan on brings it down to 40 C again. It s audible, but quieter than my laptop and not annoying. I liked the way the case came with everything I needed other than the Pi 4 and a suitable disk drive. There was an included PSU (a proper USB-C PD device, UK plug), the heatsink/fan is there, the USB/SATA converter is there and even an SD card is provided (though that s just because I had a pre-order). Speaking of the SD, I only needed it for initial setup. Recent Pi 4 bootloaders are capable of booting directly from USB mass storage devices. So I upgraded using the RPi EEPROM Recovery image (which just needs extracted to the SD FAT partition, no need for anything complicated - boot with it and the screen goes all green and you know it s ok), then created a FAT partition at the start of the drive for the kernel / bootloader config and a regular EXT4 partition for root. Copies everything over, updated paths, took out the SD and it all just works happily.

Summary My main complaint is the broken USB port, which feels like the result of a cheap connector. For a front facing port expected to see more use than the rear ports I think there s a reasonable expectation of robustness. However I m an early adopter and maybe future runs will be better. Other than that I m pretty happy. The case is exactly the sort of thing I wanted; I was looking for something that would turn the Pi into a box that can sit on my desk on the network and that I don t have to worry about knocking wires out of or lots of cables hooking bits up. Everything being included made it very convenient to get up and running. I still haven t poked the Pi that hard, but first impressions are looking good for it being a trouble free ARM64 dev box in the corner, until I can justify a HoneyComb.

Jonathan McDowell: Mainline Linux on the MikroTik RB3011

I upgraded my home internet connection to fibre (FTTP) last October. I m still on an 80M/20M service, so it s no faster than my old VDSL FTTC connection was, and as a result for a long time I continued to use my HomeHub 5A running OpenWRT. However the FTTP ONT meant I was using up an additional ethernet port on the router, and I was already short, so I ended up with a GigE switch in use as well. Also my wifi is handled by a UniFi, which takes its power via Power-over-Ethernet. That mean I had a router, a switch and a PoE injector all in close proximity. I wanted to reduce the number of devices, and ideally upgrade to something that could scale once I decide to upgrade my FTTP service speed. Looking around I found the MikroTik RB3011UiAS-RM, which is a rack mountable device with 10 GigE ports (plus an SFP slot) and a dual core Qualcomm IPQ8064 ARM powering it. There s 1G RAM and 128MB NAND flash, as well as a USB3 port. It also has PoE support. On paper it seemed like an ideal device. I wasn t particularly interested in running RouterOS on it (the provided software), but that s based on Linux and there was some work going on within OpenWRT to add support, so it seemed like a worthwhile platform to experiment with (what, you expected this to be about me buying an off the shelf device and using it with only the supplied software?). As an added bonus a friend said he had one he wasn t using, and was happy to sell it to me for a bargain price. RB3011 router in use I did try out RouterOS to start with, but I didn t find it particularly compelling. I m comfortable configuring firewalling and routing at a Linux command line, and I run some additional services on the router like my MQTT broker, and mqtt-arp, my wifi device presence monitor. I could move things around such that they ran on the house server, but I consider them core services and as a result am happier with them on the router. The first step was to get something booting on the router. Luckily it has an RJ45 serial console port on the back, and a reasonably featured bootloader that can manage to boot via tftp over the network. It wants an ELF binary rather than a plain kernel, but Sergey Sergeev had done the hard work of getting u-boot working for the IPQ8064, which mean I could just build normal u-boot images to try out. Linux upstream already had basic support for a lot of the pieces I was interested in. There s a slight fudge around AUTO_ZRELADDR because the network coprocessors want a chunk of memory at the start of RAM, but there s ongoing discussions about how to handle this cleanly that I m hopeful will eventually mean I can drop that hack. Serial, ethernet, the QCA8337 switches (2 sets of 5 ports, tied to different GigE devices on the processor) and the internal NOR all had drivers, so it was a matter of crafting an appropriate DTB to get them working. That left niggles. First, the second switch is hooked up via SGMII. It turned out the IPQ806x stmmac driver didn t initialise the clocks in this mode correctly, and neither did the qca8k switch driver. So I need to fix up both of those (Sergey had handled the stmmac driver, so I just had to clean up and submit his patch). Next it turned out the driver for talking to the Qualcomm firmware (SCM) had been updated in a way that broke the old method needed on the IPQ8064. Some git archaeology figured that one out and provided a solution. Ansuel Smith helpfully provided the DWC3 PHY driver for the USB port. That got me to the point I could put a Debian armhf image onto a USB stick and mount that as root, which made debugging much easier. At this point I started to play with configuring up the device to actually act as a router. I make use of a number of VLANs on my home network, so I wanted to make sure I could support those. Turned out the stmmac driver wasn t happy reconfiguring its MTU because the IPQ8064 driver doesn t configure the FIFO sizes. I found what seem to be the correct values and plumbed them in. Then the qca8k driver only supported port bridging. I wanted the ability to have a trunk port to connect to the upstairs switch, while also having ports that only had a single VLAN for local devices. And I wanted the switch to handle this rather than requiring the CPU to bridge the traffic. Thankfully it s easy to find a copy of the QCA8337 datasheet and the kernel Distributed Switch Architecture is pretty flexible, so I was able to implement the necessary support. I stuck with Debian on the USB stick for actually putting the device into production. It makes it easier to fix things up if necessary, and the USB stick allows for a full Debian install which would be tricky on the 128M of internal NAND. That means I can use things like nftables for my firewalling, and use the standard Debian packages for things like collectd and mosquitto. Plus for debug I can fire up things like tcpdump or tshark. Which ended up being useful because when I put the device into production I started having weird IPv6 issues that turned out to be a lack of proper Ethernet multicast filter support in the IPQ806x ethernet device. The driver would try and setup the multicast filter for the IPv6 NDP related packets, but it wouldn t actually work. The fix was to fall back to just receiving all multicast packets - this is what the vendor driver does. Most of this work will be present once the 5.9 kernel is released - the basics are already in 5.8. Currently not queued up that I can think of are the following: Overall I consider the device a success, and it s been entertaining getting it working properly. I m running a mostly mainline kernel, it s handling my house traffic without breaking a sweat, and the fact it s running Debian makes it nice and easy to throw more things on it as I desire. However it turned out the RB3011 isn t as perfect device as I d hoped. The PoE support is passive, and the UniFi wants 802.1af. So I was going to end up with 2 devices. As it happened I picked up a cheap D-Link DGS-1210-10P switch, which provides the PoE support as well as some additional switch ports. Plus it runs Linux, so more on that later

Reproducible Builds: Reproducible Builds in August 2020

Welcome to the August 2020 report from the Reproducible Builds project. In our monthly reports, we summarise the things that we have been up to over the past month. The motivation behind the Reproducible Builds effort is to ensure no flaws have been introduced from the original free software source code to the pre-compiled binaries we install on our systems. If you re interested in contributing to the project, please visit our main website.


This month, Jennifer Helsby launched a new reproduciblewheels.com website to address the lack of reproducibility of Python wheels. To quote Jennifer s accompanying explanatory blog post:
One hiccup we ve encountered in SecureDrop development is that not all Python wheels can be built reproducibly. We ship multiple (Python) projects in Debian packages, with Python dependencies included in those packages as wheels. In order for our Debian packages to be reproducible, we need that wheel build process to also be reproducible
Parallel to this, transparencylog.com was also launched, a service that verifies the contents of URLs against a publicly recorded cryptographic log. It keeps an append-only log of the cryptographic digests of all URLs it has seen. (GitHub repo) On 18th September, Bernhard M. Wiedemann will give a presentation in German, titled Wie reproducible builds Software sicherer machen ( How reproducible builds make software more secure ) at the Internet Security Digital Days 2020 conference.

Reproducible builds at DebConf20 There were a number of talks at the recent online-only DebConf20 conference on the topic of reproducible builds. Holger gave a talk titled Reproducing Bullseye in practice , focusing on independently verifying that the binaries distributed from ftp.debian.org are made from their claimed sources. It also served as a general update on the status of reproducible builds within Debian. The video (145 MB) and slides are available. There were also a number of other talks that involved Reproducible Builds too. For example, the Malayalam language mini-conference had a talk titled , ? ( I want to join Debian, what should I do? ) presented by Praveen Arimbrathodiyil, the Clojure Packaging Team BoF session led by Elana Hashman, as well as Where is Salsa CI right now? that was on the topic of Salsa, the collaborative development server that Debian uses to provide the necessary tools for package maintainers, packaging teams and so on. Jonathan Bustillos (Jathan) also gave a talk in Spanish titled Un camino verificable desde el origen hasta el binario ( A verifiable path from source to binary ). (Video, 88MB)

Development work After many years of development work, the compiler for the Rust programming language now generates reproducible binary code. This generated some general discussion on Reddit on the topic of reproducibility in general. Paul Spooren posted a request for comments to OpenWrt s openwrt-devel mailing list asking for clarification on when to raise the PKG_RELEASE identifier of a package. This is needed in order to successfully perform rebuilds in a reproducible builds context. In openSUSE, Bernhard M. Wiedemann published his monthly Reproducible Builds status update. Chris Lamb provided some comments and pointers on an upstream issue regarding the reproducibility of a Snap / SquashFS archive file. [ ]

Debian Holger Levsen identified that a large number of Debian .buildinfo build certificates have been tainted on the official Debian build servers, as these environments have files underneath the /usr/local/sbin directory [ ]. He also filed against bug for debrebuild after spotting that it can fail to download packages from snapshot.debian.org [ ]. This month, several issues were uncovered (or assisted) due to the efforts of reproducible builds. For instance, Debian bug #968710 was filed by Simon McVittie, which describes a problem with detached debug symbol files (required to generate a traceback) that is unlikely to have been discovered without reproducible builds. In addition, Jelmer Vernooij called attention that the new Debian Janitor tool is using the property of reproducibility (as well as diffoscope when applying archive-wide changes to Debian:
New merge proposals also include a link to the diffoscope diff between a vanilla build and the build with changes. Unfortunately these can be a bit noisy for packages that are not reproducible yet, due to the difference in build environment between the two builds. [ ]
56 reviews of Debian packages were added, 38 were updated and 24 were removed this month adding to our knowledge about identified issues. Specifically, Chris Lamb added and categorised the nondeterministic_version_generated_by_python_param and the lessc_nondeterministic_keys toolchain issues. [ ][ ] Holger Levsen sponsored Lukas Puehringer s upload of the python-securesystemslib pacage, which is a dependency of in-toto, a framework to secure the integrity of software supply chains. [ ] Lastly, Chris Lamb further refined his merge request against the debian-installer component to allow all arguments from sources.list files (such as [check-valid-until=no]) in order that we can test the reproducibility of the installer images on the Reproducible Builds own testing infrastructure and sent a ping to the team that maintains that code.

Upstream patches The Reproducible Builds project detects, dissects and attempts to fix as many currently-unreproducible packages as possible. We endeavour to send all of our patches upstream where appropriate. This month, we wrote a large number of these patches, including:

diffoscope diffoscope is our in-depth and content-aware diff utility that can not only locate and diagnose reproducibility issues, it provides human-readable diffs of all kinds. In August, Chris Lamb made the following changes to diffoscope, including preparing and uploading versions 155, 156, 157 and 158 to Debian:
  • New features:
    • Support extracting data of PGP signed data. (#214)
    • Try files named .pgp against pgpdump(1) to determine whether they are Pretty Good Privacy (PGP) files. (#211)
    • Support multiple options for all file extension matching. [ ]
  • Bug fixes:
    • Don t raise an exception when we encounter XML files with <!ENTITY> declarations inside the Document Type Definition (DTD), or when a DTD or entity references an external resource. (#212)
    • pgpdump(1) can successfully parse some binary files, so check that the parsed output contains something sensible before accepting it. [ ]
    • Temporarily drop gnumeric from the Debian build-dependencies as it has been removed from the testing distribution. (#968742)
    • Correctly use fallback_recognises to prevent matching .xsb binary XML files.
    • Correct identify signed PGP files as file(1) returns data . (#211)
  • Logging improvements:
    • Emit a message when ppudump version does not match our file header. [ ]
    • Don t use Python s repr(object) output in Calling external command messages. [ ]
    • Include the filename in the not identified by any comparator message. [ ]
  • Codebase improvements:
    • Bump Python requirement from 3.6 to 3.7. Most distributions are either shipping with Python 3.5 or 3.7, so supporting 3.6 is not only somewhat unnecessary but also cumbersome to test locally. [ ]
    • Drop some unused imports [ ], drop an unnecessary dictionary comprehensions [ ] and some unnecessary control flow [ ].
    • Correct typo of output in a comment. [ ]
  • Release process:
    • Move generation of debian/tests/control to an external script. [ ]
    • Add some URLs for the site that will appear on PyPI.org. [ ]
    • Update author and author email in setup.py for PyPI.org and similar. [ ]
  • Testsuite improvements:
    • Update PPU tests for compatibility with Free Pascal versions 3.2.0 or greater. (#968124)
    • Mark that our identification test for .ppu files requires ppudump version 3.2.0 or higher. [ ]
    • Add an assert_diff helper that loads and compares a fixture output. [ ][ ][ ][ ]
  • Misc:
In addition, Mattia Rizzolo documented in setup.py that diffoscope works with Python version 3.8 [ ] and Frazer Clews applied some Pylint suggestions [ ] and removed some deprecated methods [ ].

Website This month, Chris Lamb updated the main Reproducible Builds website and documentation to:
  • Clarify & fix a few entries on the who page [ ][ ] and ensure that images do not get to large on some viewports [ ].
  • Clarify use of a pronoun re. Conservancy. [ ]
  • Use View all our monthly reports over View all monthly reports . [ ]
  • Move a is a suffix out of the link target on the SOURCE_DATE_EPOCH age. [ ]
In addition, Javier Jard n added the freedesktop-sdk project [ ] and Kushal Das added SecureDrop project [ ] to our projects page. Lastly, Michael P hn added internationalisation and translation support with help from Hans-Christoph Steiner [ ].

Testing framework The Reproducible Builds project operate a Jenkins-based testing framework to power tests.reproducible-builds.org. This month, Holger Levsen made the following changes:
  • System health checks:
    • Improve explanation how the status and scores are calculated. [ ][ ]
    • Update and condense view of detected issues. [ ][ ]
    • Query the canonical configuration file to determine whether a job is disabled instead of duplicating/hardcoding this. [ ]
    • Detect several problems when updating the status of reporting-oriented metapackage sets. [ ]
    • Detect when diffoscope is not installable [ ] and failures in DNS resolution [ ].
  • Debian:
    • Update the URL to the Debian security team bug tracker s Git repository. [ ]
    • Reschedule the unstable and bullseye distributions often for the arm64 architecture. [ ]
    • Schedule buster less often for armhf. [ ][ ][ ]
    • Force the build of certain packages in the work-in-progress package rebuilder. [ ][ ]
    • Only update the stretch and buster base build images when necessary. [ ]
  • Other distributions:
    • For F-Droid, trigger jobs by commits, not by a timer. [ ]
    • Disable the Archlinux HTML page generation job as it has never worked. [ ]
    • Disable the alternative OpenWrt rebuilder jobs. [ ]
  • Misc;
Many other changes were made too, including:
  • Chris Lamb:
    • Use <pre> HTML tags when dumping fixed-width debugging data in the self-serve package scheduler. [ ]
  • Mattia Rizzolo:
  • Vagrant Cascadian:
    • Mark that the u-boot Universal Boot Loader should not build architecture independent packages on the arm64 architecture anymore. [ ]
Finally, build node maintenance was performed by Holger Levsen [ ], Mattia Rizzolo [ ][ ] and Vagrant Cascadian [ ][ ][ ][ ]

Mailing list On our mailing list this month, Leo Wandersleb sent a message to the list after he was wondering how to expand his WalletScrutiny.com project (which aims to improve the security of Bitcoin wallets) from Android wallets to also monitor Linux wallets as well:
If you think you know how to spread the word about reproducibility in the context of Bitcoin wallets through WalletScrutiny, your contributions are highly welcome on this PR [ ]
Julien Lepiller posted to the list linking to a blog post by Tavis Ormandy titled You don t need reproducible builds. Morten Linderud (foxboron) responded with a clear rebuttal that Tavis was only considering the narrow use-case of proprietary vendors and closed-source software. He additionally noted that the criticism that reproducible builds cannot prevent against backdoors being deliberately introduced into the upstream source ( bugdoors ) are decidedly (and deliberately) outside the scope of reproducible builds to begin with. Chris Lamb included the Reproducible Builds mailing list in a wider discussion regarding a tentative proposal to include .buildinfo files in .deb packages, adding his remarks regarding requiring a custom tool in order to determine whether generated build artifacts are identical in a reproducible context. [ ] Jonathan Bustillos (Jathan) posted a quick email to the list requesting whether there was a list of To do tasks in Reproducible Builds. Lastly, Chris Lamb responded at length to a query regarding the status of reproducible builds for Debian ISO or installation images. He noted that most of the technical work has been performed but there are at least four issues until they can be generally advertised as such . He pointed that the privacy-oriented Tails operation system, which is based directly on Debian, has had reproducible builds for a number of years now. [ ]

Sylvain Beucler: Debian LTS and ELTS - August 2020

Debian LTS Logo Here is my transparent report for my work on the Debian Long Term Support (LTS) and Debian Extended Long Term Support (ELTS), which extend the security support for past Debian releases, as a paid contributor. In August, the monthly sponsored hours were split evenly among contributors depending on their max availability - I was assigned 21.75h for LTS (out of my 30 max; all done) and 14.25h for ELTS (out of my 20 max; all done). We had a Birds of a Feather videoconf session at DebConf20, sadly with varying quality for participants (from very good to unusable), where we shared the first results of the LTS survey. There were also discussions about evaluating our security reactivity, which proved surprisingly hard to estimate (neither CVE release date and criticality metrics are accurate nor easily available), and about when it is appropriate to use public naming in procedures. Interestingly ELTS gained new supported packages, thanks to a new sponsor -- so far I'd seen the opposite, because we were close to the EOL. As always, there were opportunities to de-dup work through mutual cooperation with the Debian Security team, and LTS/ELTS similar updates. ELTS - Jessie LTS - Stretch Documentation/Scripts

Enrico Zini: Build Qt5 cross-builder with raspbian sysroot: compiling with the sysroot (continued)

Lite extra ball, from https://www.flickr.com/photos/st3f4n/143623902 This is part of a series of posts on compiling a custom version of Qt5 in order to develop for both amd64 and a Raspberry Pi. The previous rounds of attempts ended in one issue too many to investigate in the allocated hourly budget. Andreas Gruber wrote:
Long story short, a fast solution for the issue with EGLSetBlobFuncANDROID is to remove libraspberrypi-dev from your sysroot and do a full rebuild. There will be some changes to the configure results, so please review them - if they are relevant for you - before proceeding with your work.
That got me unstuck! dpkg --purge libraspberrypi-dev in the sysroot, and we're back in the game. While Qt5's build has proven extremely fragile, I was surprised that some customization from Raspberry Pi hadn't yet broken something. In the end, they didn't disappoint. More i386 issues The run now stops with a new 32bit issue related to v8 snapshots:

/usr/bin/ld: cannot find -lz
collect2: error: ld returned 1 exit status
Attempted solution: apt install zlib1g-dev:i386. Alternative solution (untried): configure Qt5 with -no-webengine-v8-snapshot. It builds! Installation paths Now it tries to install files into debian/tmp/home/build/sysroot/opt/qt5custom-armhf/. I realise that I now need to package the sysroot itself, both as a build-dependency of the Qt5 cross-compiler, and as a runtime dependency of the built cross-builder. Conclusion The current work in progress, patches, and all, is at https://github.com/Truelite/qt5custom/tree/master/debian-cross-qtwebengine It blows my mind how ridiculously broken is the Qt5 cross-compiler build, for a use case that, looking at how many people are trying, seems to be one of the main ones for the cross-builder.

Enrico Zini: Build Qt5 cross-builder with raspbian sysroot: compiling with the sysroot

Whack-A-Mole machines from <https://commons.wikimedia.org/wiki/File:Whac-A-Mole_Cedar_Point.jpg> This is part of a series of posts on compiling a custom version of Qt5 in order to develop for both amd64 and a Raspberry Pi. Now that I have a sysroot, I try to use it to build Qt5 with QtWebEngine. Nothing seems to work straightforwardly with Qt5's build system, and hit an endless series of significant blockers to try and work around.
Problem in wayland code QtWayland's source currently does not compile:

I am not trying to debug here. I understand that Wayland support is not a requirement, and I'm adding -skip wayland to Qt5's configure options. Next round. nss not found Qt5 embeds Chrome's sources. Chrome's sources require libnss3-dev to be available for both host and target architectures. Although I now have it installed both on the build system and in the sysroot, the pkg-config wrapper that Qt5 hooks into its Chrome's sources, failes to find it:
Command: /usr/bin/python2 /home/build/armhf/qt-everywhere-src-5.15.0/qtwebengine/src/3rdparty/chromium/build/config/linux/pkg-config.py -s /home/build/sysroot/ -a arm -p /usr/bin/arm-linux-gnueabihf-pkg-config --system_libdir lib nss -v -lssl3

I reported the bug at https://gcc.gnu.org/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=96206 Since this source compiles with -O0, I attempted to fix this by editing qtwebkit/src/3rdparty/chromium/build/config/compiler/BUILD.gn and replacing instances of -O1 and -O2 with -O0. Spoiler: wrong attempt. We'll see it in the next round. Impossible constraint in asm Qt5's sources embed Chrome's sources that embed the ffmpeg library sources. Even if ffmpeg's development libraries are present both in the host and in the target system, the build system insists in compiling and using the bundled version. Unfortunately, using -O0 breaks the build of ffmpeg:

The same source compiles with using -O2 instead of -O0. I worked around this by undoing the previous change, and limiting -O0 to just the source that causes the Internal Compiler Error. I edited qtwebengine/src/3rdparty/chromium/third_party/skia/third_party/skcms/skcms.cc to prepend:
#pragma GCC push_options
#pragma GCC optimize ("O0")
and append:
#pragma GCC pop_options
Next round. Missing build-deps for i386 code Qt5's sources embed Chrome's sources that embed the V8 library sources. For some reason, torque, that is part of V8, wants to build some of its sources into 32 bit code with -m32, and I did not have i386 cross-compilation libraries installed:

I'm out of the allocated hour budget, and I'll stop here for now. Building Qt5 has been providing some of the most nightmarish work time in my entire professional life. If my daily job became being required to deal with this kind of insanity, I would strongly invest in a change of career. Update Andreas Gruber wrote:
Long story short, a fast solution for the issue with EGLSetBlobFuncANDROID is to remove libraspberrypi-dev from your sysroot and do a full rebuild. There will be some changes to the configure results, so please review them - if they are relevant for you - before proceeding with your work.
And thanks to Andreas, the story can continue...

Enrico Zini: Build Qt5 cross-builder with raspbian sysroot: building the sysroot

This is part of a series of posts on compiling a custom version of Qt5 in order to develop for both amd64 and a Raspberry Pi. As an attempt to get webview to compile, I'm reattempting to build a Qt5 cross-compiling environment using a raspbian sysroot, instead of having dependencies for both arm and amd64 installed in the build system. Using dependencies installed in a straightforward way in the build system has failed because of issues like #963136, where some of the build dependencies are needed for both architectures, but the corresponding Debian -dev packages are not yet coinstallable. This is something that causes many people much pain.
Start from a clean sysroot Looking for a Raspbian image, I found out that it has been renamed to "Raspberry Pi OS". I realised that software names are like underwear: as soon as they become well used, they need to be changed. I downloaded RaspbianRaspberry Pi OS Lite from https://www.raspberrypi.org/downloads/raspberry-pi-os/ to start with something minimal. It came out as something like 1.5G uncompressed, which wasn't as minimal as I would have hoped, but that'll be what I'll have to work with. Adding build dependencies I have acquired significant experience manipulating RaspbianRaspberry Pi OS images from working with Himblick. This time I'm working with the disk image directly, instead of an SD card, since I will be needing it as a sysroot during the build, and I won't need to actually boot it on real hardware. The trick is to work with kpartx to make the partitions in the image available as loopback block devices. I have extracted a lot of relevant code from Himblick into a Python library I called Transilience The result is this provisioning script, which is able to take a RaspbianRaspberry Pi OS image, enlarge it, and install Debian packages into it. I find this script pretty cool, also in the way it embeds quite a bit of experience gathered on the field. I can also be integrated in a fully automated setup and provisioning system. The next step will be to use the result as a sysroot to build Qt.

Enrico Zini: Missing Qt5 designer library in cross-build development

This is part of a series of posts on compiling a custom version of Qt5 in order to develop for both amd64 and a Raspberry Pi. The problem While testing the cross-compiler, we noticed that the designer library was not being built. The designer library is needed to build designer plugins, which allow loading, dynamically at runtime, .ui interface files that use custom widgets. The error the customer got at runtime is: QFormBuilder was unable to create a custom widget of the class ' '; defaulting to base class 'QWidget'. The library with the custom widget implementation was correctly linked, and indeed the same custom widget was used by the application in other parts of its interface not loaded via .ui files. It turns out that it is not sufficient, and to load custom widgets automatically, QUiLoader wants to read their metadata from plugin libraries containing objects that implement the QDesignerCustomWidgetInterface interface. Sadly, building such a library requires using QT += designer, and the designer library, that was not being built by Qt5's build system. This looks very much like a Qt5 bug. A work around would be to subclass QUiLoader extending createWidget to teach it how to create the custom widgets we need. Unfortunately, the customer has many custom widgets. The investigation To find out why designer was not being built, I added -d to the qmake invocation at the end of qtbase/configure, and trawled through the 3.1G build output. The needle in the haystack seems to be here:
DEBUG 1: /home/build/armhf/qt-everywhere-src-5.15.0/qttools/src/designer/src/src.pro:18: SUBDIRS := uiplugin uitools lib components designer plugins
DEBUG 1: /home/build/armhf/qt-everywhere-src-5.15.0/qttools/src/designer/src/src.pro:23: calling qtNomakeTools(lib components designer plugins)
As far as I can understand, qtNomakeTools seems to be intended to disable building those components if QT_BUILD_PARTS doesn't contain tools. For cross-building, QT_BUILD_PARTS is libs examples, so designer does not get built. However, designer contains the library part needed for QDesignerCustomWidgetInterface and that really needs to be built. I assume that part should really be built as part of libs, not tools. The fixes/workarounds I tried removing designer from the qtNomakeTools invocation at qttools/src/designer/src/src.pro:23, to see if qttools/src/designer/src/designer/ would get built. It did get built, but then build failed with designer/src/designer and designer/src/uitools both claiming the designer plugin. I tried editing qttools/src/designer/src/uitools/uitools.pro not to claim the designer plugin when tools is not a build part. I added the tweaks to the Qt5 build system as debian/patches. 2 hours of build time later... make check is broken:

make[5]: *** No rule to make target 'sub-components-check', needed by 'sub-designer-check'.  Stop.
But since make check doesn't do anything in this build, we can simply override dh_auto_test to skip that step. Finally, this patch builds a new executable, of an architecture that makes dh_shlibdeps struggle:
dpkg-shlibdeps: error: cannot find library libQt5DesignerComponentssystem.so.5 needed by debian/qtbase5system-armhf-dev/opt/qt5system-armhf/bin/designer (ELF format: 'elf32-little' abi: '0101002800000000'; RPATH: '')

And we can just skip running dh_shlibdeps on the designer executable. The result is in the qt5custom git repository.

Enrico Zini: Qt5 custom build of Qt Creator

This is part of a series of posts on compiling a custom version of Qt5 in order to develop for both amd64 and a Raspberry Pi. These are instructions for building Qt Creator with the custom Qt, so that it can load and use Designer plugins built with it. Sadly, because of the requirement of being able to load Designer plugins, and because of the requirement of being able to compile custom widgets using the custom Qt and use them in the Designer, we need to also rebuild Qt Creator. The resulting packaging is at https://github.com/Truelite/qt5custom. Set up sources Open the source tarball, and add the Qt Creator packaging:
tar axf qt-creator-enterprise-src-4.12.2.tar.xz
cp -a debian-qtcreator qt-creator-enterprise-src-4.12.2/debian
ln -s qt-creator-enterprise-src-4.12.2.tar.xz qt-creator-enterprise-src_4.12.2.orig.tar.xz
If needed, install the Qt license:
cp qt-license.txt ~/.qt-license
Install build dependencies You can use apt build-dep to install dependencies manually:
cd qt-creator-enterprise-src-4.12.2
apt build-dep .
Alternatively, you can create an installable .deb metapackage that depends on the build dependencies:
apt install devscripts
mk-build-deps debian-qtcreator/control
apt -f install qt-creator-enterprise-src-build-deps_4.12.2-1_all.deb
Package build The package is built by debian/rules base on the excellent work done by Debian Qt5 maintainers. After installing the build dependencies, you can build like this:
cd qt-creator-enterprise-src-4.12.2
debuild -us -uc -rfakeroot
In debian/rules you can configure NUMJOBS with the number of available CPUs in the machine, to have parallel builds. debian/rules automatically picks qt5custom as the Qt version to use for the build. NOTE: Qt Creator 4.12.2 will NOT build if qtbase5custom-armhf-dev is installed. One needs to make sure to have qtbase5custom-dev installed, but NOT qtbase5custom-armhf-dev. Despite quite a bit of investigation, I have been unable to understand why, if both are installed, Qt Creator's build chooses the wrong one, and fails the build. Build output Building sources generates 4 packages: Using the custom Qt Creator Enterprise The packages are built with qt5custom and install their content in /opt/qt5custom. The packages are coinstallable with the version of Qt Creator packaged in Debian. The custom Qt Creator executable is installed in /opt/qt5custom/bin/qtcreator, which is not in $PATH by default. To run it, you can explitly use /opt/qt5custom/bin/qtcreator. qtcreator ran without an explicit path, runs the standard Debian version. Installing Designer plugins Designer plugings can be compiled with qt5custom and installed in /opt/qt5custom/plugins/designer/. Cross-building with Qt Creator Once the cross-build Qt5 packages are installed, one should see it appear in the Qt Creator kit configuration, where it can be selected and used normally. If one sets device type to "Generic Linux Device", chooses a compiler for "arm 32bit" and sets Qt Version to "qt5custom-armhf", one can smoothly cross-compile and execute and debug the built program directly on the device.

Enrico Zini: Qt5 custom build for armhf embedded development

This is part of a series of posts on compiling a custom version of Qt5 in order to develop for both amd64 and a Raspberry Pi. I split building Qt5 for armhf development in two parts: one cross-build environment to be installed on amd64 develpment systems, and a runtime part to be installed on the target armhf hardware. Building a Qt5 cross-building environment builds a mix of armhf and amd64 binares: the amd64 tools to use for cross-building, like moc, qmake, plugins for Qt Creator, and so on; armhf headers and libraries to use at cross-build time; armhf shared libraries to use at runtime. The procedure I came up with builds a devel package for amd64 development machines, which contains everything, and a second package that extracts from it only what is needed at runtime. The cross-build environment is coinstallable both with the version of Qt distributed with Debian, and with the amd64 custom Qt development package. The current build is sadly using -skip qtwebengine, because I have had no success so far getting QtWebEngine to compile as part of a cross-build Qt setup (the last road bump I can't overcome is nss and nspr not being coinstallable on amd64 and armhf, while both seem to be needed for it). The resulting packaging is at https://github.com/Truelite/qt5custom. Set up sources Open the source tarball, and add the amd64 packaging:
tar axf qt-everywhere-src-5.15.0.tar.xz
cp -a debian-cross qt-everywhere-src-5.15.0/debian
If needed, install the Qt license:
cp qt-license.txt ~/.qt-license
If debugging information are not needed in armhf development, remove --no-strip from ./configure invocation in the rules file, to build significantly smaller .deb packages. Install build dependencies Install cross-compilers:
dpkg --add-architecture armhf
apt install crossbuild-essential-armhf
You can use apt build-dep to install dependencies manually:
cd qt-everywhere-src-5.15.0
apt build-dep .
apt -a armhf build-dep .
Alternatively, you can create installable .deb metapackages that depends on the build dependencies:
apt install devscripts
mk-build-deps --host-arch amd64 debian-cross/control
mk-build-deps --host-arch armhf debian-cross/control
apt -f install qt-everywhere-cross-build-deps_5.15.0-1_amd64.deb qt-everywhere-cross-cross-build-deps_5.15.0-1_armhf.deb
Note that there are two sets of dependencies: one of amd64 packages, and one of armhf packages. Building the cross-build environment After installing the build dependencies, you can build like this:
cd qt-everywhere-src-5.15.0
fakeroot debian/rules binary
In debian/rules you can configure NUMJOBS with the number of available CPUs in the machine, to have parallel builds. This will build a package with the cross-build development environment for amd64, called qtbase5custom-armhf-dev Building the runtime environment To generate the runtime package for armhf, one needs to have the cross-build package (qtbase5custom-armhf-dev) installed in the system together with its build dependencies. At that point, the armhf runtime package can be built using the debian-armhf directory without further sources:
apt install crossbuild-essential-armhf debhelper qtbase5custom-armhf-dev*_amd64.deb qt-everywhere-src-cross-build-deps*_armhf.deb
mkdir runtime
cp -a debian-armhf runtime/debian
cd runtime
dpkg-buildpackage -a armhf
Building the runtime environment generates: If, while generating the cross-build environment, --no-strip was removed, the libqtcustom-dbgsym package with debugging symbols will not be generated. Using the cross-build environment These install their content in /opt, and are coninstallable with the version of Qt distributed in Debian, and with the custom Qt packages for amd64. One needs to be careful not to create programs that link, either directly or indirectly, with more than one of these coinstalled Qt, because the in memory layout of objects could be different and incompatible, causing unexpected results. Selecting which Qt version to use: qtchooser These Qt custom packages integrate with qtchooser to select the version of Qt to use at compile time. qtchooser --list-versions lists available versions. One can choose what to use by exporting QT_SELECT:
# apt install qtchooser qt5-qmake qt5-default
$ qtchooser --list-versions
4
5
qt4-x86_64-linux-gnu
qt4
qt5-x86_64-linux-gnu
qt5
qt5custom-x86_64-linux-gnu
qt5custom
qt5custom-armhf-x86_64-linux-gnu
qt5custom-armhf
$ qmake --version
QMake version 3.1
Using Qt version 5.11.3 in /usr/lib/x86_64-linux-gnu
$ export QT_SELECT=qt5custom-armhf
$ qmake --version
QMake version 3.1
Using Qt version 5.15.0 in /opt/qt5custom-armhf/lib
Cross-building software using custom Qt One just needs to export QT_SELECT=qt5custom-armhf in the environment, then proceed to build normally:
export QT_SELECT=qt5custom-armhf
fakeroot ./debian/rules clean binary
Or:
export QT_SELECT=qt5custom-armhf
qmake file.pro
If switching from one Qt to another, it is possible that the makefiles created by one qmake are not working well with the other. In that case, one can just remove them and regenerate them. The build result is ready to be copied into, and run in, the target armhf device.

Enrico Zini: Custom build of Qt5

This is part of a series of posts on compiling a custom version of Qt5 in order to develop for both amd64 and a Raspberry Pi. A customer needs a procedure for a custom build of Qt5 5.15, the last LTS release of Qt 5. They develop for industrial systems that are managed by an amd64 industrial computer. This computer is accessed either through an attached panel touch screen, or through touch screens driven by Raspberry Pi clients connected via an internal ethernet network. The control interfaces use mostly a full screen Qt5 application. The customer relies heavily on Qt5, has a full Enterprise license, and needs to stay on top of the most recent releases, to make use of new features or bug fixes that have made it upstream since the last Debian stable was released. This is a list of requirements for this job: To make things easier, .deb packages are for internal use only and do not need to be compliant with Debian policy. I estimate a difficulty level of: "Bring the One Ring to Mount Doom and remember to get milk on the way back". The journey begins. The resulting packaging is at https://github.com/Truelite/qt5custom.

Christoph Berg: arm64 on apt.postgresql.org

The apt.postgresql.org repository has been extended to cover the arm64 architecture. We had occasionally received user request to add "arm" in the past, but it was never really clear which kind of "arm" made sense to target for PostgreSQL. In terms of Debian architectures, there's (at least) armel, armhf, and arm64. Furthermore, Raspberry Pis are very popular (and indeed what most users seemed to were asking about), but the raspbian "armhf" port is incompatible with the Debian "armhf" port. Now that most hardware has moved to 64-bit, it was becoming clear that "arm64" was the way to go. Amit Khandekar made it happen that HUAWEI Cloud Services donated a arm64 build host with enough resources to build the arm64 packages at the same speed as the existing amd64, i386, and ppc64el architectures. A few days later, all the build jobs were done, including passing all test-suites. Very few arm-specific issues were encountered which makes me confident that arm64 is a solid architecture to run PostgreSQL on. We are targeting Debian buster (stable), bullseye (testing), and sid (unstable), and Ubuntu bionic (18.04) and focal (20.04). To use the arm64 archive, just add the normal sources.list entry:
deb https://apt.postgresql.org/pub/repos/apt buster-pgdg main
Ubuntu focal At the same time, I've added the next Ubuntu LTS release to apt.postgresql.org: focal (20.04). It ships amd64, arm64, and ppc64el binaries.
deb https://apt.postgresql.org/pub/repos/apt focal-pgdg main
Old PostgreSQL versions Many PostgreSQL extensions are still supporting older server versions that are EOL. For testing these extension, server packages need to be available. I've built packages for PostgreSQL 9.2+ on all Debian distributions, and all Ubuntu LTS distributions. 9.1 will follow shortly. This means people can move to newer base distributions in their .travis.yml, .gitlab-ci.yml, and other CI files.

Joey Hess: custom ARM disk image generation with propellor

Following up on propelling disk images, Propellor can now build custom ARM disk images for a variety of different ARM boards. The disk image build can run on a powerful laptop or server, so it's super fast and easy compared with manually installing Debian on an ARM board. Here's a simple propellor config for a Olimex LIME board, with ssh access and a root password:
lime :: Host
lime = host "lime.example.com" $ props
    & osDebian Unstable ARMHF
    & Machine.olimex_A10_OLinuXino_LIME
    & hasPartition (partition EXT4  mountedAt  "/"  setSize  MegaBytes 8192)
        & hasPassword (User "root")
        & Ssh.installed
    & Ssh.permitRootLogin (RootLogin True)
To make a disk image for that board, I only have to add this property to my laptop:
& imageBuiltFor lime
    (RawDiskImage "/srv/lime.img")
    (Debootstrapped mempty)
Propellor knows what kernel to install and how to make the image bootable for a bunch of ARM boards, including the Olimex LIME, the SheevaPlug, Banana Pi, and CubieTruck. To build the disk image targeting ARM, propellor uses qemu. So it's helpful that, after the first build, propellor incrementally updates disk images, quite quickly and efficiently. Once the board has the image installed, you can run propellor on it to further maintain it, and if there's a hardware problem, you can quickly replace it with an updated image.
computer tower that I will be maintaining with propellor
It's fairly simple to teach propellor about other ARM boards, so it should be quite easy to keep propellor knowing about all ARM boards supported by Debian (and other distros). Here's how I taught it about the Olimex LIME:
olimex_A10_OLinuXino_LIME :: Property (HasInfo + DebianLike)
olimex_A10_OLinuXino_LIME = FlashKernel.installed "Olimex A10-OLinuXino-LIME"
     requires  sunixi "A10-OLinuXino-Lime"
     requires  armmp
My home server is a CubieTruck which serves as a wireless access point, solar panel data collector, and git-annex autobuilder. It's deployed from a disk image built by propellor, using this config. I've been involved with building disk image for ARM boards for a long time -- it was part of my job for five years -- and this is the first time I've been entirely happy with the process.

Julian Andres Klode: APT 1.6 alpha 1 seccomp and more

I just uploaded APT 1.6 alpha 1, introducing a very scary thing: Seccomp sandboxing for methods, the programs downloading files from the internet and decompressing or compressing stuff. With seccomp I reduced the number of system calls these methods can use to 149 from 430. Specifically we excluded most ways of IPC, xattrs, and most importantly, the ability for methods to clone(2), fork(2), or execve(2) (or execveat(2)). Yes, that s right methods can no longer execute programs. This was a real problem, because the http method did in fact execute programs there is this small option called ProxyAutoDetect or Proxy-Auto-Detect where you can specify a script to run for an URL and the script outputs a (list of) proxies. In order to be able to seccomp the http method, I moved the invocation of the script to the parent process. The parent process now executes the script within the sandbox user, but without seccomp (obviously). I tested the code on amd64, ppc64el, s390x, arm64, mipsel, i386, and armhf. I hope it works on all other architectures libseccomp is currently built for in Debian, but I did not check that, so your apt might be broken now if you use powerpc, powerpcspe, armel, mips, mips64el, hhpa, or x32 (I don t think you can even really use x32). Also, apt-transport-https is gone for good now. When installing the new apt release, any installed apt-transport-https package is removed (apt breaks apt-transport-https now, but it also provides it versioned, so any dependencies should still be satisfiable). David also did a few cool bug fixes again, finally teaching apt-key to ignore unsupported GPG key files instead of causing weird errors

Jamie McClelland: Docker in Debian

It's not easy getting Docker to work in Debian. It's not in stable at all:
0 jamie@turkey:~$ rmadison docker.io
docker.io    1.6.2~dfsg1-1~bpo8+1   jessie-backports   source, amd64, armel, armhf, i386
docker.io    1.11.2~ds1-5           unstable           source, arm64
docker.io    1.11.2~ds1-5           unstable-debug     source
docker.io    1.11.2~ds1-6           unstable           source, armel, armhf, i386, ppc64el

docker.io    1.13.1~ds1-2           unstable-debug     source
0 jamie@turkey:~$ 
And a problem with runc makes it really hard to get it working on Debian unstable. These are the steps I took to get it running today (2017-10-10). Remove runc (allow it to remove containerd and docker.io):
sudo apt-get remove runc
Install docker-runc (now in testing)
sudo apt-get install docker-runc
Fix containerd package to depend on docker-runc instead of runc:
mkdir containerd
cd containerd
apt-get download containerd 
ar x containerd_0.2.3+git20170126.85.aa8187d~ds1-2_amd64.deb
tar -xzf control.tar.gz
sed -i s/runc/docker-runc/g control
tar -c md5sums control   gzip -c > control.tar.gz
ar rcs new-containerd.deb debian-binary control.tar.gz data.tar.xz
sudo dpkg -i new-containerd.deb
Fix docker.io package to depend on docker-runc instead of runc.
mkdir docker
cd docker
apt-get download docker.io
ar x docker.io_1.13.1~ds1-2_amd64.deb
tar -xzf control.tar.gz
sed -i s/runc/docker-runc/g control
tar -c  post,pre inst,rm  md5sums control   gzip -c > control.tar.gz
ar rcs new-docker.io.deb debian-binary control.tar.gz data.tar.xz
sudo dpkg -i new-docker.io.deb
Symlink docker-runc => runc
sudo ln -s /usr/sbin/docker-runc /usr/sbin/runc
Keep apt-get from upgrading until this bug is fixed:
printf "# Remove when docker.io and containerd depend on docker-runc
# instead of normal runc

Reproducible builds folks: Reproducible Builds: Weekly report #128

Here's what happened in the Reproducible Builds effort between Sunday October 1 and Saturday October 7 2017: Media coverage Documentation updates Packages reviewed and fixed, and bugs filed Reviews of unreproducible packages 32 package reviews have been added, 46 have been updated and 62 have been removed in this week, adding to our knowledge about identified issues. Weekly QA work During our reproducibility testing, FTBFS bugs have been detected and reported by: diffoscope development strip-nondeterminism development Rob Browning noticed that strip-nondeterminism was causing serious performance regressions in the Clojure programming language within Debian. After some discussion, Chris Lamb also posted a query to debian-devel in case there were any other programming languages that might be suffering from the same problem. reprotest development Versions 0.7.1 and 0.7.2 were uploaded to unstable by Ximin Luo: It included contributions already covered by posts of the previous weeks, as well as new ones from: tests.reproducible-builds.org Misc. This week's edition was written by Bernhard M. Wiedemann, Chris Lamb, Holger Levsen, Mattia Rizzolo & reviewed by a bunch of Reproducible Builds folks on IRC & the mailing lists.
