netopeer2 debian package fails to remove

[koalo]

The Debian package of netopeer2 has some cleanup routines that amongst other things try to remove models from sysrepo. However, this can easily fail e.g. due to dependencies to other models. For example:

root@d14d756ab51d:/app# sysrepoctl -i ieee1588-ptp.yang 
root@d14d756ab51d:/app# apt remove -y netopeer2
Reading package lists... Done

The following packages will be REMOVED:

After this operation, 919 kB disk space will be freed.

A full reproducer is possible with the following Dockerfile:

RUN sysrepoctl -i ieee1588-ptp.yang
RUN apt remove -y netopeer2

Just building it with docker build . will fail with the error message shown above.

[michalvasko]

Right, should work in the current devel, the script has been updated. Note that the DEB scripts are not up-to-date because we are waiting for the unfreeze of Debian repos so that we can upload all the packages.

[koalo]

That was very fast, thanks a lot! :-) Unfortunately, after removing netopeer2, sysrepocfg -l now fails with

root@7cee3beb0fab:/app# sysrepocfg -l
[ERR] JSON DS file: Retrieving GID "1000" grp entry failed (No such GID).
free(): double free detected in tcache 2
Aborted (core dumped)

and sysrepoctl -l with

root@036f4afdf093:/app# sysrepoctl -l
[ERR] JSON DS file: Retrieving GID "1000" grp entry failed (No such GID).
[ERR] Callback "get_access" of plugin "JSON DS file" for module "ietf-netconf" failed.
sysrepoctl error: Failed to list modules (Item not found)
For more details you may try to increase the verbosity up to "-v3".

Shall I create a separate issue for that?

[michalvasko]

I suppose you do not have to but I am wondering what exactly happened there, have you removed the group that the datastore files belonged to?

[koalo]

I have not done it manually. Apparently that is what is happening automatically. The installation of netopeer2 seems to create the user netconf and it gets removed by apt remove netopeer2. So the models that did not get removed now reference a dangling user. Besides the fact of the user mixup, also the "double free" worries me (even though it is during program termination).

Okay, I had to guess what the problem is because I could not reproduce it with debugging symbols and the packages are without them but I guessed right, the crash is fixed now. As for the error itself, there is little I can do. The error mentions what module has the problem and you can change the owner/group of it using sysrepoctl and then it will all work normally.

[koalo]

The main problem is solved, thanks a lot!

[koalo]

Any updates regarding the mentioned upload of the new Debian packages? Let me know if I can support somehow

[michalvasko]

Well, there are updates in the sense that we no longer have anyone handling official Debian package upload and so must leave it to the initiative of Debian maintainers. If you are one and are willing to handle this, I would provide assistance and even the scripts (in their basic working form, not strictly compliant with all the Debian requirements), we still try to maintain them in the repository directly.

[koalo]

We had a quick look and apparently there are a few bugs that are currently blocking further progress at Debian side for both netopeer2 and sysrepo:

• https://bugs.debian.org/cgi-bin/pkgreport.cgi?archive=no&pend-exc=pending-fixed&pend-exc=fixed&pend-exc=done&sev-inc=critical&sev-inc=grave&sev-inc=serious&repeatmerged=no&src=sysrepo
• https://bugs.debian.org/cgi-bin/pkgreport.cgi?archive=no&pend-exc=pending-fixed&pend-exc=fixed&pend-exc=done&sev-inc=critical&sev-inc=grave&sev-inc=serious&repeatmerged=no&src=netopeer2

Do some of these bugs trigger something in the back of your mind that is already handled in the GitHub issue tracker (or even already fixed)? I am happy to support with fixing (likely not immediately, but within the next months) and/or responding to the Debian bug tracker to enable further progress on Debian side.

[michalvasko]

Okay, those versions are really old and most of the problems have already been fixed, I will fix the rest. So please contact me once you would like to make some progress with this, the first step would be to upload the current versions of the projects.

[koalo]

Sounds good! I created https://bugs.debian.org/cgi-bin/bugreport.cgi?bug=1065080 and hope to get an answer from Ondřej, since he is the assigned Debian maintainer for the packages. If he does not respond or is busy, we should hopefully be able to take the next steps (like triggering a non-maintainer upload).

[michalvasko]

I doubt he will. He was the first maintainer we tried to have officially, it did not work out. Then there was another guy, which also cannot maintain it anymore so that is why I asked you.

[koalo]

I expected that, but Debian is quite strict with its maintainership, so at least we need to have it documented that we tried to contact him before proceeding. I also cannot promise yet that it will work out with us long term (I am also not a Debian maintainer, but we have one at our company), but one of our projects (https://github.com/Linutronix/detnetctl) heavily relies on YANG and sysrepo and we usually use Debian as distribution for our projects (we even have our own Debian-based build environment (https://elbe-rfs.org/)). So at least as long as we use YANG for our projects, we will have a motivation for up-to-date Debian packages for the YANG ecosystem.

[michalvasko]

Understood, that is more than we have now so no problem.
