Subject: changelogs on packages.d.o broken? (no, not the usual delay)

Date: Wed, 23 Dec 2009 09:45:02 +0100

Package: www.debian.org
Severity: important


Heya,
  it seems that recently (1 week to 10 days?) the changelogs on
packages.debian.org have broken or are more out of date than they used
to be. Several people on #debian-devel have noticed various non up to
date packages and others are reporting to have switched to the PTS "RSS"
views to keep an eye on packages evolution (which is suboptimal, has the
PTS doesn't have the changelog entries, the lack of which also breaks
aptitude changelog support).

As a practical example I've this one:

  http://packages.qa.debian.org/f/file.html
  http://packages.debian.org/changelogs/pool/main/f/file/current/changelog

4 days ago the package was uploaded, but it does not appear yet in the
changelog of packages.d.o.

I've seen other bug reports related to this issue, but they seem older
and more related to the fact that changelog are not _always_ up to
date. I'm not asking that, a scheduled update is more than reasonable,
but I've the impression that this time something more serious has
broken.

Cheers.

Indeed:
@powell$ find /srv/packages.debian.org/www/changelogs/pool/main -name changelog.html -a -mtime -6
doesn't return anything.
The last changelogs were generated for main on 16th Dec.

non-free and contrib are not affected.

From /srv/packages.debian.org/files/logs/changelogs.log.*
Can't use string ("0.841") as a HASH ref while "strict refs" in use at
/org/packages.debian.org/bin/extract_files line 614.
and debian-edu 0.841 has been uploaded on 16th Dec (oh same date as the
changelog generation stopped):
http://packages.qa.debian.org/d/debian-edu/news/20091216T110245Z.html

But I still don't understand why it affects specifically debian-edu packages..
Hopefully Frank will read this soon.

extract_files: DEBUG: found binary package education-development, version 0.841, architecture sparc

real    12m30.600s
user    0m56.884s
sys     0m3.772s
program exited with non-zero exitcode: 0

It looks to me as if that confuses extract_files sufficiently so that it
doesn't continue as usual.

Kind regards,
Philipp Kern

Indeed.  Perl bailed out because of a syntax error in a warning that got
triggered.  I think it should recover itself now, although I have to leave it
up to the team to fix it properly.
