Devtools update causes problems with sudo when used in a script?

I'm a little confused by this one, but I'm not convinced that it's a bug.. yet.
Long story short, I compile packages using the ABS via a script/wrapper which uses devtools. The script is available here: https://github.com/WorMzy/compilepackage
Now, this script is far from perfect, but has worked perfectly well (in various states of completeness) for the past year or so. However, with the recent update of devtools (20120720-1 => 20121013-1), my script fails to execute correctly. After entering the password when prompted (by sudo, at this line: https://github.com/WorMzy/compilepackag … tions#L107), the script terminates unexpectedly.
Downgrading devtools "fixes" this problem, but I'm not sure if this is a bug in devtools, sudo, zsh, my script, or something else.
Here is the full output from the compilation of "arch-install-scripts":

Thanks.

Update: It appears that the cause is systemd's nspawn. Disabling it in mkarchroot (have_nspawn=0) resolves the problem.
However, I don't understand why it's causing this behaviour. User input works fine for the sudo password prompt, but then fails for the pacman user prompt? Do they use different input buffers or something? Does that question even make sense?
Anyway, I'll open a bug report on flyspray and upstream about this when I get the chance.

  • Problem with SDO_relate when using polygons with holes.

    I'm having a problem with sdo_relate. I'm trying to extract all elements from a point table (bdtq_batim_p) that are inside a specific polygon from another table (SDA_MUNIC_SS). The spatial index for both table have been rebuilt and the data from both table is valid.
    When I do a count on the query, I know the answer should be 1422 elements (Counted in ArcGIS). However, sdo_relate gives a smaller number of elements in the result set.
    The query :
    SELECT count(distinct t.identifiant) FROM bdtq_batim_p t, SDA_MUNIC_SS s WHERE s.mus_co_geo = '48015' and sdo_relate( t.SHAPE,s.SHAPE,'mask=anyinteract querytype=window') = 'TRUE'
    returns 282 elements. The query with mask=inside, SDO_Anyinteract() and SDO_inside() all give the same result.
    I did a test with the following query and the result is 1422 (which is the good result).
    SELECT count(distinct t.identifiant) FROM bdtq_batim_p t, SDA_MUNIC_SS s WHERE s.mus_co_geo = '48015' and SDO_WITHIN_DISTANCE( t.SHAPE,s.SHAPE,'distance=0') = 'TRUE';
    It's important to note that the polygone (from SDA_MUNIC_SS) that is used for this query have holes in it. I have the same problem with all the polygons from the SDA_MUNIC_SS table that have holes in it. For the polygon without holes, the results are the same for the 2 queries.
    My question are :
    Why are the result from the two queries different? A query with a buffer of 0 should always return the same result as a query with Anyinteract.
    Is there a known problem with SDO_RELATE when using a polygon with holes in it?
    Do you have any idea how to solve my problem.

    Since i don't have much control on the version of Oracle and Patches that we use in the system, we used a workaround that detects the polygons with holes and uses the SDO_WITHIN_DISTANCE( t.SHAPE,s.SHAPE,'distance=0') = 'TRUE' operator in those case. We saw a slight decline in performance but it now returns the right results. When the system will be patched, we'll come back to the original version and see if the problem is solved.

    To build CD's???
    What problem does Encore have with DL?
    If DL is not working properly for you the way around this is to export from Premiere to either mpeg2-dvd for DVD or BluRay H.264 for BD-disks and import the files in Encore.

     b noir,
    I can get itunes to start if I disable Bonjour or if I "repair" it first. Sometimes I can repair Bonjour though add/remove programs, sometimes it will only "repair" using WinRar. Sometimes I have to "repair" Bonjour 2 or 3 times to get iTunes to start.
    I have tried uninstalling and reinstalling at least a dozen times. I have tried redownloading iTunes at least 5 times and from different links. This leads me to believe that the dnssd.dll file is not itself corrupt, but this newest version is causing a conflict with XP somewhere somehow.
    Team, iTunes 10.2.2.12 has just been released. I installed it and checked, and BonJour's been updated to version 2.0.5.0, and there's a new 2.0.5.0 version of dnssd.dll on my system. So I reckon it's worth a try updating to that to see if it's of any help with your trouble.

  • IOS 8.0.2 update causing problems with wifi connectivity..please help

    latest update having problems ...please help..!!!!!!!!!!

    Just a quick snapshot of my chain of events.  I’m currently on my fourth iPhone 6 Plus 64GB here in London, UK. Every time I have spoken to AppleCare and told them that I have gone through all the Wi-Fi troubleshooting methods possible they have asked me to get a brand new retail replacement as I’m within my 14 day return period.  I’ve been experiencing the following issues:
    Wi-Fi disconnects and switches to 4G (Restart required for temp fix)
    Wi-Fi is still active but there is no traffic or activity– often when in sleep mode for long periods of time.  (Toggle Wi-Fi on/off for temp fix)
    Wi-Fi disconnects and cannot find any networks (restart required for temp fix)
    This has been occurring on both iOS 8 and 8.0.2
    The issues are the same on both my 2.4Ghz and 5Ghz networks
    This is affecting my ip6+ and 5s (5s used to work perfect on ios7 on same networks) – My MBP-R and all other devices run perfectly on my network.
    I spoke to AppleCare again yesterday and asked for their advice as its now my fourth iPhone in just under a month. This time they said that apple were fully aware of the Wi-Fi problem and that new repair tickets were not being raised for their engineers as they are already working hard to get this resolved. They also said they could see all the issues raised on the apple discussions boards which they usually don’t admit too! I asked what to do next and the advisor apologised and said this is clearly a software glitch and will be resolved in the next update. I asked for a timescale but unfortunately none was given.
    As stated above I have tried all the troubleshooting methods discussed on forums and on tech websites but the only thing that gives me a stable connection without any disconnects (especially on my 6 plus) is turning cellular/mobile data off when I know I’m going to be on Wi-Fi for a sustained period of time (e.g. at home or work). I appreciate this is annoying but it’s the best temp fix until an update comes out.
    Hope it helps everyone who is having issues with their devices that have cellular functionality.
    Any comments welcome

  • Verizon is the 4.3 update causing problems with my phone because my phone is having problems

    I have been having multiple problems with my GS3 since the 4.3 update including wifi connection issues dropped and frozen calls frequent unmounting of my sd card bluetooth problems to site the worst. I have updated and reset my router checked and reset my phone settings multiple times taken my baterry out of my phone 2 a day on average turned my phone off multiple times a day to reset it. I am now wondering what will fix all these problems because nothing i have read from your forums has done anything, how much longer do i have to pay full monthly prices for services i can no longer full monthly access?

    Your phone is a mini computer, no matter what os it runs.  
    Software updates from various developers , patch and patch again.  Adding to the original App software already on your device.  Not only do updates apps take up more room on your device with each update, but imperfect updates and the communication with other services on your phone lead to many software "glitches".   When there are major software errors, the best remedy is to clean it out and start it fresh.
    It is recommended for Apple devices suffering from battery life problems, app crashes, lack of device storage and other issues after the iOS 7 update.
    Android devices are no different.
    It is drastic, but sometimes unavoidable.   Don't forget to back up any information that is unique to the device.

  • Problems with keywords when using 2 directories.

    Pardon my french, I'm Norwegian...  ;-)
    I have LR3.6 and have a folder structure I'm pleased with, I also use keywords on the images.
    I want one directory with B/W and one in color, in order to work in a directory where only B/W images appear. I think it's easier to see the images that work in B/W this way...
    I have copied the LRCAT file into a new folder. When I open LR I choose the directory to be loaded, B/W or Color. This works OK. When importing new pictures I copy images into the desired directory (eg. Colors?) with the Default Develop settings. When I use the B/W directory I sync the Color directory with the B/W Default Develop settings.
    I've imported the same Keyword list in both directories, but the problem is that the keywords are not included on the pictures when I sync. The images have the same filename so it should be possible to retrieve / sync keywords as well?
    Is there anyone out there who can help me, either with another solution where I do not need 2 directories or how I can import keywords to the other directory?

    My Lords, Kings and Gurus!
    dj_paige and johnbeardy:  I'm impressed with your quick and accurate response and I'm grateful for all the help. I hope I have not offended anyone here. In our local photoclub we have one guy that is almost as good as you guys. I don't know him but I think his name is Scott Kel... or somthing like that....  
    Have a nice day!

  • Communication problem with printer when using Parallels

    OK, apologies if this has been asked elsewhere but I've been trawling the forum for an hour and have yet to find the exact problem that I'm having!
    First of all, I'm a recent convert to Mac (hurrah I hear you all cry), secondly, I've set up Parallels to deal with some PC left-overs, thirdly, I've tried to use my old Dell printer and realised Dell doesn't support Macs (or not my AIO 922 anyway).
    So, I thought I'd get round this by installing the drivers for the printer on the Windows partition, which all went well until I actually tried to print something... although the printer is visible and 'on-line', I get the box informing me there's a communation problem with the printer and computer.
    It's beginning to wind me up so any info/advice would be greatly appreciated

    This is either a Windows or a Parallels problem. For Parallels go to http://forum.parallels.com. For Windows go to the support forums at Microsoft.
    There is no support for either product at these Discussions.

  • Java update causes problems with color printing in Mac 10.5

    Had a big problem with color printing for the last two weeks. Thought the printer was broken because it would freeze and refuse to be "seen", or would generate error messages. Bought new Samsung 315, and had the SAME problem. Bought new HP CP1518ni, and had the SAME problem. Not resolved after talking to tech support at both places.
    Looked for software updates around the time of the onset of printing problems. on May 15 installed "Java for Mac OS X 10.5 update" (1.0) (am running on 10.5.8). Removed the Java preferences files (com.apple.java......plist) and restarted.
    Problem solved! Clearly not the printer.

    Hmmm. This is about the time my printer stopped printing too. I've now had two printers in my house and had trouble with both of them. What a pain we should not have to delete updates for our stuff to work together.

  • Firmware update caused problems with HBD-N790W

    Latest firmware update caused my DVD Blu Ray Home Theater to lose the ability to find internet video content.  The unit shows that the 12/19 update was successful.  I can access the internet and get web browser content--so there isn't anything wrong with my wireless web connection.  My unit shows the connection to the internet is working.  I made a YouTube video about it:https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=9nqYNNVPcBA&list=UUNQaJbjyKQwFlZXY6832mIA   The set-up feature does not work and I lost my video channels (Netflix, Amazon).  I don't really understand why my connection to the internet works, my wireless works...everything works except getting updated media channels.  I have tried plugging and unplugging cable, modem, wireless, unit,  for ten minutes many times.  I reconnect the unit to the web...get buttons that say that internet content can be updated...press the button...then the Sony logo and it stops there.

    Hi, i work for a Service center for  walmart and bestbuy and  i have been getting this model in for  service for awile now,    after  a firmware update   the systems have reported to work good till there turned off the first time and then they dont book up all the way,   you will get a   Sony logo at top left screen and the  Blue   Bluray Logo in the center of the tv screen    and thats it,  no menu functions     the  controls on the player it self   flash on and off slowly   you can turn the system on and off with the remote but thats it,    this looks like a failed firmware update  but there seems to be no way to reflash these even with the firmware you can get from the sony site  you have to burn a CDR disk  but  becuse there is no menu you cant get that far,   i have 19  of these units stacked up  5 have been replaced with  other brands to make customers happy,  the rest on still in wait for a fix,    its looking like replacement of main board  will be  the next step in this night mare.     if  sony tech wants to shine some lite on this now i would be very  gratefull.    Thanks    Chris R.

  • Problems with COLOUR when using "save as".

    Running on Mac, get dulled out and purple colour tone when using "Save As".  When using "Save for Web.." colours are OK.  Colour profiles and images coming into Raw are set as sRGB. Can anyone help??   I do have to convert to 8 bit to save as JPG.  Any help appreciated.

    The Print version is what a ProPhoto file looks like when viewed as if it was sRGB - i.e. in a non-color managed application. So there's still a ProPhoto profile here.
    Here you can see how the colors shift by going between sRGB and ProPhoto (using assign and/or convert). Your original is in the middle. You can see it's the very same color shift:
    If you convert to sRGB and you still get the same outcome, which you shouldn't, maybe the preferences are corrupt. Or maybe user error and you still have ProPhoto embedded.

Maybe you are looking for
