Bug#950444: intltool: race condition when generating FIXME

Vagrant Cascadian vagrant at reproducible-builds.org
Sat Feb 1 19:44:28 GMT 2020


Package: intltool
Version: 0.51.0-5
Severity: normal
Tags: patch
User: reproducible-builds at lists.alioth.debian.org
Usertags: toolchain randomness
X-Debbugs-Cc: reproducible-bugs at lists.alioth.debian.org
Control: affects -1 exo
Control: affects -1 garcon

A fix for a race condition was submitted upstream. The effects result in
partial or completely missing translations. The Reproducible Builds
folks have identified over twenty packages which may be affected:

  https://tests.reproducible-builds.org/debian/issues/unstable/translations_missing_in_desktop_files_issue.html


The fix was submitted and merged upstream some years ago, but a new
release was never made:

  https://bugs.launchpad.net/intltool/+bug/1687644
  https://bazaar.launchpad.net/~intltool/intltool/trunk/revision/748


I've done several tests building "exo" and "garcon" packages on multiple
machines with varying environments, and the attached patch appears to
work.


Thanks for maintaining intltool!


live well,
