Over 30 days in bugzilla and looking good! Please stabilize, thanks.

1) emerges fine
2) passes collision test
3) gets some email

compiles fine, passes collision test, passes multilib-strict test, passes test suite, able to fetch mail, but getmail_mbox and getmail_maildir fail.

strace getmail_mbox ~/mbox (file exists, filled by getmail_fetch):
stat("./mbox", {st_mode=S_IFREG|0644, st_size=4041, ...}) = 0
fstat(0, {st_mode=S_IFCHR|0620, st_rdev=makedev(136, 1), ...}) = 0
mmap(NULL, 4096, PROT_READ|PROT_WRITE, MAP_PRIVATE|MAP_ANONYMOUS, -1, 0) = 0x2aab2ced6000
read(0,
hangs here, when ^C out of it:
strace: read(0,  <unfinished ...>
stderr: Traceback (most recent call last):

Comment 6 Andrej Kacian (RETIRED) gentoo-dev 2006-09-21 10:25:22 UTC
Christoph, can you reproduce this on latest getmail ebuild in portage?
Comment 7 Christoph Mende (RETIRED) gentoo-dev 2006-09-21 10:47:44 UTC
Exactly the same problem, getmail_fetch works, getmail_maildir and getmail_mbox don't - maybe someone else should try it to see if it's a local problem, the problem doesn't look arch specific to me
Comment 8 Christoph Mende (RETIRED) gentoo-dev 2006-10-14 10:20:33 UTC
Got new info on this, by accident I found out that it's not really hanging, it's reading from stdin.
I took a look at /usr/bin/getmail_mbox and found the following on line 57 (see the output after ^C in comment 5): msg = Message(fromfile=sys.stdin)
Looks like me as if it wants to read the mail from stdin (which is not intended, huh?), so I tried getmail_mbox ./mbox < ./mbox, that gives me a new result, no output, but I can see reading it my mbox in strace:
stat("./mbox", {st_mode=S_IFREG|0644, st_size=268196, ...}) = 0
fstat(0, {st_mode=S_IFREG|0644, st_size=268196, ...}) = 0
mmap(NULL, 4096, PROT_READ|PROT_WRITE, MAP_PRIVATE|MAP_ANONYMOUS, -1, 0) = 0x2ac3bace8000
read(0, "From <> Thu Sep 21 19:56:08 2006"..., 8192) = 8192
[complete mail in that style here]
I cannot find any errors after that though - tell me if you want the whole strace output.
BTW exit code after piping my mbox into getmail is 0.
Comment 9 Andrej Kacian (RETIRED) gentoo-dev 2006-10-14 11:33:43 UTC
Check `man getmail_mbox` - it is supposed to read from stdin.
Comment 10 Christoph Mende (RETIRED) gentoo-dev 2006-10-14 11:52:55 UTC
/me gets himself a really, really big cup of RTFM.
Everything works as expected (looks like at least), mbox is created in proper format, Maildir is filled in proper way - just a sidenot, maybe getmail_maildir should create $maildir/(cur|new|tmp) if they don't exist. Tried 4.6.3 and .4 in case you want to wait the 30 days for .4, they both work, someone get me an amd64 dev to mark it stable :P

PS: Still ashamed, took a look at the manp age, but only looked for the synopsis, which said "getmail_mbox [OPTION] PATH", whereas I expected it to be "getmail_mbox [OPTION] PATH < FILE" :/
PPS: Alpha is kinda understaffed, huh?
Comment 11 Steve Dibb (RETIRED) gentoo-dev 2006-10-31 20:05:25 UTC
amd64 ... late, but worth the wait
