 |
|
Yesterday, I updated world, and glib went from glib-2.2.5 up to glib-2.24.1-r1.
And, this broke my amanda tape-backups on four servers  The breakage is visible when running amcheck:
| Code: | amanda@hydra ~ $ amcheck Daily
Amanda Tape Server Host Check
-----------------------------
Holding disk /holding: 136052736 kB disk space available, using 10485760 kB as requested
**
ERROR:glib-util.c:48:glib_init: assertion failed: (!g_thread_supported())
Amanda Backup Client Hosts Check
--------------------------------
Client check: 3 hosts checked in 32.054 seconds. 0 problems found.
(brought to you by Amanda 2.6.1p2)
|
The breakage is also visible when amanda emails the report, and ALL backups are RESULTS MISSING, along with this line:
| Code: | | driver: FATAL reading result from taper: Connection reset by peer |
There appears to be a fix for this (patch to glib-util.c):
http://github.com/zmanda/amanda/commit/df2f92eb17e2cc1c90dd98163c7b8e51a3ef8d29
In the meantime, until this fix trickles down to Gentoo and into Portage, is there any danger to my systems in reverting back to glib-2.22.5?
Are other folks experiencing this problem too? Has anyone found other work-arounds?
TIA!

Tried this (reverting to glib-2.22.5):
Added this line to /etc/portage/package.mask, to "hide" the problematic current version of glib:
| Code: | | >dev-libs/glib-2.22.5 |
Running amcheck gave me this version-mismatch message:
| Code: | amanda@hydra ~ $ amcheck Daily
Amanda Tape Server Host Check
-----------------------------
Holding disk /holding: 136052736 kB disk space available, using 10485760 kB as requested
amcheck-server: GLib version too old (micro mismatch): Amanda was compiled with glib-2.24.1
Amanda Backup Client Hosts Check
--------------------------------
Client check: 3 hosts checked in 32.057 seconds. 0 problems found.

Running revdep-rebuild did not flag anything. But, rebuilding amanda removed all warnings.
Tentatively, I think I can suggest a solution to others who encounter this problem:
1) mask and downgrade glib
2) recompile amanda
HTH! |
