Gentoo 1.4 maintenance release 1 for x86
----------------------------------------
New 20030911 builds of Gentoo 1.4 are now available on mirrors[1] and at
the Gentoo Store[2] so this may be a good time to reburn your CDs or to
order some copies of the LiveCDs. This maintenance build has the same
functionality as the 1.4 release but fixes many bugs. Also, if you
installed Gentoo with the 1.4 release there's no need to worry because the
releases are only relevant for the LiveCDs and GRPs; run emerge rsync;
emerge -u world and your Gentoo system will be as up-to-date as anyone
else's.

Experimental IA-64 stage1 available
-----------------------------------
The IA-64 port can now be fully built from stage1, and an experimental
IA-64 stage1 tarball is now available under experimental/ia64. There's no
LiveCD, but users are encouraged to try building a system, see how it
works, and submit bugs to Bugzilla[3].

GLSA: mysql
-----------
Quote from advisory:
"Anyone with global administrative privileges on a MySQL server may
execute arbitrary code even on a host he isn't supposed to have a shell
on, with the privileges of the system account running the MySQL server."
* Severity: High - execute arbitrary code.
* Packages Affected: <mysql-3.23.57-r1 <mysql-4.0.13-r4
>=mysql-4.0.14-r2(masked)
* Rectification: emerge sync; emerge dev-db/mysql/<mysql version>; emerge
clean
* GLSA Announcement[4]
4. http://marc.theaimsgroup.com/?l=gentoo-announce&m=106362878312500&w=2
GLSA: exim
----------
"There's a heap overflow in all versions of exim3 and exim4 prior to
version 4.21. It can be exercised by anyone who can make an SMTP
connection to the exim daemon."
* Severity: Low - heap overflow
* Packages Affected: <exim-4.21

* GLSA Announcement[5]
5. http://marc.theaimsgroup.com/?l=gentoo-announce&m=106363184515705&w=2
GLSA: pine
----------
"A remotely exploitable buffer overflow exists within the parsing of the
message/external-body type attribute name/value pairs. Failure to check
that the length of the longest attribute is less than the space available
allows a maliciously formed e-mail message to overwrite control
structures."
* Severity: High - Remotely exploitable buffer overflow
* Packages Affected: <pine-4.58
* Rectification: Synchronize and emerge pine, emerge clean.
* GLSA Announcement[6]

GLSA: openssh
-------------
"All versions of OpenSSH's sshd prior to 3.7.1_p1 contain a buffer
management error. It is uncertain whether this error is potentially
exploitable, however, we prefer to see bugs fixed proactively."
* Severity: Low - Buffer Management error
* Packages Affected: <openssh-3.7.1_p1

GLSA: sendmail
--------------
"Fix a buffer overflow in address parsing. Problem detected by Michal
Zalewski, patch from Todd C. Miller of Courtesan Consulting."
Fix a potential buffer overflow in ruleset parsing. This problem is not
exploitable in the default sendmail configuration; only if non-standard
rulesets recipient (2), final (4), or mailer-specific envelope recipients
rulesets are used then a problem may occur. Problem noted by Timo
Sirainen."
* Severity: High - Buffer Overflow
* Packages Affected: <sendmail-8.2.10
* Rectification: Synchronize and emerge sendmail, emerge clean.

Brian Jackson
Figure 3.1: Brian Jackson
http://www.gentoo.org/images/gwn/20030922_iggy.jpg
We are pleased to present Brian Jackson[10], who has gone by the handle
iggy for the better part of a decade. Brian maintains the courier MTA
package, as well as working on the gentoo-cluster project[11] and
assisting with patch maintenance for the kernel team. He modestly
describes his duties as "mostly bug-fixing" and kernel "patch monkey", and
keeps an eye peeled for prospective new developers while participating in
the recently-inaugurated Gentoo Bugdays[12].

Brian lives in Montgomery, Texas, just outside Houston. His home enjoys a
surfeit of mammals: three cats, 300 lbs of Great Dane (in two discrete
packages) and a wife share the space. He also seems to have an infestation
of computers, with an Athlon XP 2600 (2 GB, NForce2) main workstation,
Athlon XP 1800 (1 Gb, Radeon) media server, P2 450 file server, two Epia
boxen for cluster testing and a pair of test servers. Given the situation,
his lament that he has "poor air conditioning" seems particularly poignant.
He is a professional network administrator and programmer who has
unfortunately recently been numbered among the victims of IT startup
failures - a situation unlikely to continue for long. He currently works
from a home office decorated with a lava lamp and a sumo penguin. Brian
attended the US Navy's Nuclear Power School, and enjoys working with sport
compact cars when not working on his computers. When he finds time, he is
a skilled cook. He also spends a lot of time with his pets, and generally
starts his day by letting the dogs out before retiring to his office and
computers.
Brian first began using Linux in the mid-1990's, trying out Red Hat and
SuSE before a friend firmly admonished him to start using Slackware. He
first heard about Gentoo on a Linux news-site about a year ago, and
migrated to it once he had confirmed that lilo was available as a
bootloader. Brian is a KDE user, generally having KMail and a number of
Konsoles open at any given time. One of the Konsoles is invariably
connected to a screen'd IRSSI client running on one of his servers. In
addition, he uses Kate for editing, courier for his MTA, and is fond of
the djbdns DNS server. When asked to provide a favorite quote, Brian cited
Edmond Burke: "All that is necessary for the triumph of evil is that good
men do nothing."

Life on the Bleeding Edge
Accepting the ~x86 keyword is usually not near as unstable as people might
think. Nonetheless: on occasion, very nasty things are known to happen.
They may not be that big a deal if you're a developer and used to your
system breaking apart every now and then, but ~x86 is being followed by
newbyish to intermediate Gentooists, too. They like to stick to it to get
the latest and greatest software across all genres, even if they know they
could be in for a bumpy ride. Nothing wrong with that as long as you
manage to stay in the saddle, but on occasion the horse turns its head and
delivers some very painful bites...

KDE 3.1.4 and 3.2 Alpha
The forums have been teeming with threads about KDE last week, with the
appearance of both KDE 3.1.4 (including a brief episode of chicken-and-egg
blocking of Qt 3.2.1 ebuilds), and - more importantly - the first alpha
version of the next major minor release bump scheduled for early December:
KDE 3.2. The ebuilds for the latter are still masked, but Gentoo KDE lead
caleb[14] who started both forum threads encourages people to test the new
version...

Germany: Regional Gentoo Meetings
Separated by only 24 hours and 98,5 kilometres, two regional German
Gentooist gatherings are going to take place in October. The Ruhrgebiet -
a sprawl of dozens of loosely connected cities with a total of 5,5 million
inhabitants - Gentoo faction elected a quite appropriately oversized steel
and glass complex located in Oberhausen, the Centro[18], as their venue on
8 October, 19:00 hours. Meanwhile, the Bonn bunch has (tentatively)
decided to meet on 9 October in a classic grassroots community location,
the Netzladen[19], just one day later, on 9 October. Details for both
meetings are being swapped via forum threads, click here for
Oberhausen[20] or here for Bonn[21]. Busy week for people who'd also like
to attend the Practical Linux day in Gie??en[22] two days later - and
another 155,6 kilometres west...

8. Tips and Tricks
==================
An introduction to info
This week's tip introduces the info command. Just about everyone has used
the man command to look up information on a command, but the info command
is less well known. However, it's actually the preferred documentation
method of many programmers. So if man doesn't have what you're looking
for, try using info instead.
info uses the concept of nodes for information. Each page of information
on a topic is a node and you can navigate between nodes using n to move
forward and p to move backwards. To get started with info, just type info
at the command prompt. There's an easy to follow tutorial you can view by
typing h or, for just a list of available commands, type ?.
If you're looking for documentation on a specific command, you can use
info command (e.g. info tar). If you're not quite sure what the command
name is, but want to search, add the --apropos=STRING option. For example,
if you're looking for documentation on mysqld, you could use info
--apropos=mysqld. This displays a list of nodes with information on
mysqld.
This is just an introduction to info, but hopefully it will help you get
to know your system a little better. Remember, to get started with the
primer, use info and the press h.

Additionally, the forums database is nearing 2GB in size, with almost half
a million posts. As far as we can tell, this makes it the busiest forum of
any Linux distribution. While the forums have recently started to show
some signs of strain due to the continued growth, they remain one of the
best sources of information related to Gentoo Linux.
Over the coming months, we will continue to make changes to the forums to
improve their usability and scalability.

Mostly Harmless
Some people used to blame baselayout, some the transition from modutils to
module-init-tools, and everybody agrees that devfs is behind it all.
Several threads over the past few weeks have pointed out that dozens of
error messages are scrolling past the screen or cluttering the log files
upon each reboot and user login or logout. While the noise certainly has
nothing to do with a malfunctioning system, it is very annoying to many
people, and makes the occasional real error much harder to spot, of course:
* Can't locate module /dev/rtc[25]
* Devfs was declared obsolete today in the 2.6-test kernel!?![26]
* [Bug report] module-init-tools 0.9.13_pre2 spewing output again[27]

2.6 Kernel Attracting the Masses
With the test being up to number 4 by now, many people (including lots who
never tried the 2.5.x series before) are checking if it works for them to
move on to the next major release of the Linux kernel. The most weathered
kernel testers among the Gentooists have always been particularly fast to
spot problems and discuss them in the Forums, and many times they're also
providing help to newcomers while they're at it.
* kernel 2.6.0-test4 out! [28]
* kernel 2.6.0-test3 test thread [29]

Missing Locales
Not all locales get created automatically in Gentoo. Few people seem to
know this, and every now and again it shimmers through a forum post:
* I'm missing locale de_DE.utf8[31]
* Install-Guide should contain setting the locale[32]
* Gentoo Linux Localization Guide[33]

Understanding Cron
Something like the Cron daemon may seem simple to experienced Linux
administrators. But sometimes the configuration and layout can be
confusing to newer Linux users, like Scott Jones. Scott was trying check
his email every hour with Cron, and some other mailing list members
replied with tips and pointers that even more experienced Linux users may
benefit from. Thread here [34] .

Switching Processors
Mailing list member Stephen was swapping an Intel P4 processor for an AMD
Athlon XP. in a post he made on the -user list this week, he inquired how
he could do this without reinstalling Gentoo all over again. Some fellow
list members came to the rescue with a flood of tips and suggestions to
help the swap go smoothly. Read it here [35] .

To Root or not to Root?
Rob Cakebread posed a question [36] about root privilages when
interacting with portage, especially with the perspective of creating
portage related applications.

Copyright, copyleft, copy what?
A issue that comes up as often as the portage tree is changed is the one
of copyright [37] and how it relates back to our much loved Gentoo linux
systems. Paul asked this question related to why licence and copyright
assignments are included in ebuilds.

Install CD Bloat
There was a very active thread[38] this week regarding the current status
of the installation CDs. Some users were concerned about the current size
of the LiveCDs while other users suggested ways of reducing the
overallsize.

9. Tips and Tricks
==================
Converting data with units
This week's tip shows you how to use the units command which is a nifty
utility that converts quantities between scales (e.g. meters to feet or
kilograms to pounds). While not an essential tool, it can certainly be
convenient at times.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------
| Code Listing 9.1: |
| Getting units |
---------------------------------------------------------------------------
| |
|# emerge app-sci/units |
| |
---------------------------------------------------------------------------
There are two ways to use the units command, interactively and
non-interactively. To use it interactively, simply issue the command
units.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------
| Code Listing 9.2: |
| Using units interactively |
---------------------------------------------------------------------------
| |
|% units |
|1948 units, 71 prefixes, 28 functions |
| |
|You have: 1 meter |
|You want: feet |
| * 3.2808399 |
| / 0.3048 |
|You have: 3 kilograms |
|You want: pounds |
| * 6.6138679 |
| / 0.15119746 |
| |
---------------------------------------------------------------------------
The first number (prefixed by a *) indicates the conversion as you
specified (i.e. there are about 3.28 feet in a meter). The second number
is the conversion in the opposite direction (i.e. there are about 0.3
meters in a foot).
To use units non-interactively, issue the command followed by the original
expression and then the new expression.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------
| Code Listing 9.3: |
| Using units non-interactively |
---------------------------------------------------------------------------
| |
|How many pecks are in a bushel? |
|% units '1 bushel' 'peck' |
| * 4 |
| / 0.25 |
| |
|How many miles per hour are in a knot? |
|% units '1 knot' 'mph' |
| * 1.1507794 |
| / 0.86897624 |
| |
---------------------------------------------------------------------------
A 'knot' is one nautical mile per hour.
See the man page (man units) for more information on the units command.
