Description William H. Haller 2015-08-01 15:58:09 UTC
Description of problem:When attempting to start a remote server on an F21 machine, the remote system tries to run ss to look for listening sockets. If stripesnoop is installed, its ss executable is found via the defined PATH instead and never terminates, causing the process to hang.


Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable): x2goserver-4.0.1.19-3.fc21.x86_64


How reproducible: Start a remote session


Steps to Reproduce:
1. Start a remote session to a system with stripesnoop installed
2.
3.

Actual results: Fails to start display


Expected results: Starts display


Additional info: Removing stripesnoop fixes the problem. Not sure when that got added, or alternatively when the PATH for ss was modified to pick /bin over /sbin, but either the search PATH needs fixed or hard coded for Fedora or stripesnoop needs modified so that the proper ss executable is selected.

Comment 1 Orion Poplawski 2015-08-10 23:08:16 UTC
I really don't think stripesnoop should ship /usr/bin/ss.

Comment 2 Orion Poplawski 2015-08-21 21:08:54 UTC
Seems like reasonably strong consensus on not having duplicated names in /usr/sbin and /usr/bin.  Spot can you respond?

Comment 3 Tom "spot" Callaway 2015-08-24 15:16:24 UTC
Yeah. I agree. I'll rename stripesnoop's binary and push that update for all active branches.

Comment 17 Jan Kurik 2018-05-31 09:05:56 UTC
This bug is currently reported against a Fedora version which is already unsuported.
I am changing the version to '27', the latest supported release.

Please check whether this bug is still an issue on the '27' release.
If you find this bug not being applicable on this release, please close it.

Comment 18 Ben Cotton 2018-11-27 15:22:33 UTC
This message is a reminder that Fedora 27 is nearing its end of life.
On 2018-Nov-30  Fedora will stop maintaining and issuing updates for
Fedora 27. It is Fedora's policy to close all bug reports from releases
that are no longer maintained. At that time this bug will be closed as
EOL if it remains open with a Fedora  'version' of '27'.

Package Maintainer: If you wish for this bug to remain open because you
plan to fix it in a currently maintained version, simply change the 'version' 
to a later Fedora version.

Thank you for reporting this issue and we are sorry that we were not 
able to fix it before Fedora 27 is end of life. If you would still like 
to see this bug fixed and are able to reproduce it against a later version 
of Fedora, you are encouraged  change the 'version' to a later Fedora 
version prior this bug is closed as described in the policy above.

Although we aim to fix as many bugs as possible during every release's 
lifetime, sometimes those efforts are overtaken by events. Often a 
more recent Fedora release includes newer upstream software that fixes 
bugs or makes them obsolete.

Comment 19 Tom "spot" Callaway 2018-11-27 15:32:00 UTC
Pretty sure this is fixed everywhere.

Comment 20 Fedora Update System 2019-01-19 02:33:16 UTC
stripesnoop-1.5-24.el6 has been pushed to the Fedora EPEL 6 stable repository. If problems still persist, please make note of it in this bug report.
