The file /usr/share/lirc-remotes/imon/lircd.conf.imon-ultrabay appears to have a begin statement commented out on line 102, but I don't know how to create a patch for it. I'm not sure what to do with the other file. Even if I move the file so it's not loaded, the traceback still happens. This seems to be related to PolicyKit. After disabling PolicyKit in config.py (ENABLE_POLICY_KIT = False) gnome-lirc-properties starts (but fails to write a configuration file). It seems as if selinux intercepts dbus calls to policykit(org.freedesktop.policykit.read): getenforce -> Enforcing: dbus-send --system --dest=org.freedesktop.PolicyKit --print-reply / org.freedesktop.PolicyKit.IsProcessAuthorized string:org.freedesktop.policykit.read uint32:$PPID boolean:true Error org.freedesktop.PolicyKit.GeneralError: Error getting information about pid 3975: (null): (null) getenforce -> Permissive: dbus-send --system --dest=org.freedesktop.PolicyKit --print-reply / org.freedesktop.PolicyKit.IsProcessAuthorized string:org.freedesktop.policykit.read uint32:$PPID boolean:true method return sender=:1.157 -> dest=:1.156 reply_serial=2 string "auth_admin_keep_always" After going into permissive mode, gnome-lirc-properties is running. Created attachment 342209 [details]
org.gnome.LircProperties.Mechanism.conf
The failure to write a configuration file is related to bug 474895 and the changes to the default policy of the dbus system. The attached org.gnome.LircProperties.Mechanism.conf is working for me. As the authorization is handled by policykit, it is perhaps safe to allow every user to contact the service. However, this should be checked by someone with a deeper insight into the security implications. This bug appears to have been reported against 'rawhide' during the Fedora 11 development cycle. Changing version to '11'. More information and reason for this action is here: http://fedoraproject.org/wiki/BugZappers/HouseKeeping The traceback should be fixed in https://admin.fedoraproject.org/updates/gnome-lirc-properties-0.3.1-4.fc11 That leaves the duplicate names, and broken files: imon/lircd.conf.imon-ultrabay is broken mceusb/lircd.conf.mceusb contains a duplicate name (In reply to comment #7) > That leaves the duplicate names, and broken files: > imon/lircd.conf.imon-ultrabay is broken > mceusb/lircd.conf.mceusb contains a duplicate name Fixed and fixed (in lirc cvs just now). Should be all set with the arrival of lirc 0.8.6. With lirc-remotes.x86_64 0:0.8.6-0.6.pre2.fc12: WARNING:root:/usr/share/lirc-remotes/: Remote Antec_Veris_Premiere listed twice in imon/lircd.conf.imon-mceusb and imon/lircd.conf.imon-antec-veris. WARNING:root:/usr/share/lirc-remotes/: Remote iMON-PAD listed twice in imon/lircd.conf.imon-pad and imon/lircd.conf.imon-pad. Not the same problems, but still some anyway... This message is a reminder that Fedora 11 is nearing its end of life. Approximately 30 (thirty) days from now Fedora will stop maintaining and issuing updates for Fedora 11. 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 WONTFIX if it remains open with a Fedora 'version' of '11'. 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 prior to Fedora 11's end of life. Bug Reporter: Thank you for reporting this issue and we are sorry that we may not be able to fix it before Fedora 11 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 please change the 'version' of this bug to the applicable version. If you are unable to change the version, please add a comment here and someone will do it for you. 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. The process we are following is described here: http://fedoraproject.org/wiki/BugZappers/HouseKeeping Let's say it's fixed, and fix the lirc remote definition bugs somewhere else. |
Description of problem: gnome-lirc-properties fails to launch, throwing a traceback and citing two malformed configuration files. Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable): 0.3.1-3 How reproducible: Consistently Steps to Reproduce: 1. yum install gnome-lirc-properties 2. launch from the System -> Properties menu in Gnome or via terminal Actual results: If launched from the menu, a hidden window titled "Starting Infrared Remote Control" appears on the task list briefly before disappearing. If launched from a terminal window, the attached traceback and errors are displayed. Expected results: gnome-lirc-properties launches and allows the user to modify remote control configurations. Additional info: Here are the error messages and traceback: /usr/lib/python2.6/site-packages/gnome_lirc_properties/net/services.py:23: DeprecationWarning: the md5 module is deprecated; use hashlib instead import md5, os, re, rfc822, sha, time, urllib2 /usr/lib/python2.6/site-packages/gnome_lirc_properties/net/services.py:23: DeprecationWarning: the sha module is deprecated; use the hashlib module instead import md5, os, re, rfc822, sha, time, urllib2 /usr/lib/python2.6/site-packages/gnome_lirc_properties/lirc.py:335: DeprecationWarning: BaseException.message has been deprecated as of Python 2.6 logging.error(ex.message) ERROR:root:imon/lircd.conf.imon-ultrabay:131: Malformed configuration file WARNING:root:/usr/share/lirc-remotes/: Remote mceusb listed twice in mceusb/lircd.conf.mceusb and mceusb/lircd.conf.mceusb.
