2011-05-26 16:05:12 Launchpad Janitor python-apt (Ubuntu): status Fix Committed Fix Released
2011-05-26 17:22:28 Loïc Minier description I'm using 10.10 and when using the Update manager, the download sizes are off. The ones shown in the main window are lower than those that are shown in the downloading packages window. Some testing showed that the percent they are off by is 2.4 (I.E. 980k shown in the main window, but 1,004k shown in the downloads window.) Will attach a screen shot if needed. python-apt returns incorrect values for some API functions on ARM due to broken signed/unsigned and long/int integer conversions. Impact: bogus values (e.g. read from stack) for some function calls such as size of a package in cache; this causes user visible issues such as update-manager download sizes, or breaks linaro-image-tools when creating Linaro images (maverick host) Fix: This was fixed by using MkPyNumber(...) instead of Py_BuildValue("i", ...) or Py_BuildValue("k", ...) TEST CASE: run lp610820.py attached to this bug; if the output is a single entry in the size -> number of packages in cache hash, then python-apt is broken: 0 => 33936 instead, it should look like a long distribution of values in the form of: 922 => 4 1798 => 6 1800 => 4 1802 => 5 1828 => 6 1830 => 10 1832 => 7 Regression potential: Could break the patches functions or could regress applications which relied on the bogus behavior; the builtin testsuite which is run during package build will help a bit with catching the first class of issues, and we'd likely want to fix the other issues by themselves. Testsuite coverage is likely not 100% perfect though
