Packages | Stable | Bug Report | Very Low | Very Low | [fail2ban] update dovecot failregex to support verbose ... | Unconfirmed | |
Task Description
Description:
The /etc/fail2ban/filter.d/dovecot.conf file has a failregex with the following:
^%(__prefix_line)s(?:auth|auth-worker\(\d+\)): (?:pam|passwd-file)\(\S+,<HOST>\): unknown user\s*$
and works with things like:
Month day time hostname dovecot: auth: passwd-file(user@domain.com,IP): unknown user
but with verbosity enabled in Dovecot, this output looks like this:
Month day time hostname dovecot: auth: passwd-file(user@domain.com,IP): unknown user (given password: password)
and in this case it doesn’t work, but it does if we fix the failregex if we replace it with:
^%(__prefix_line)s(?:auth|auth-worker\(\d+\)): (?:pam|passwd-file)\(\S+,<HOST>\): unknown user( \(given password: \S*\))?\s*$
with this new expression, it works with and without verbosity
And regarding postfix, to make it work correctly I “backported” some pieces from newest failregex:
/etc/fail2ban/postfixr-rbl.conf:
^%(__prefix_line)sNOQUEUE: reject: RCPT from \S+\[<HOST>\]: [45]54 [45]\.7\.1 Service unavailable; Client host \[\S+\] blocked using .* from=<\S*> to=<\S+> proto=ESMTP helo=<\S*>$
/etc/fail2ban/postfix.conf: (second failregex)
^%(__prefix_line)sNOQUEUE: reject: RCPT from \S+\[<HOST>\]: 45[04] 4\.7\.1 Client host rejected: cannot find your (reverse )?hostname, (\[\S*\]); from=<\S*> to=<\S+> proto=ESMTP helo=<\S*>$
I can create a patch if you want. Note that I haven’t tested all filters, some others may also need some rework

Packages | Stable | Bug Report | Very Low | Very Low | Gajim "Unable to run gpg - it may not be available" | Assigned | |
Task Description
Description:
Gajim XMPP Client wont start after installing python2-gnupg.
Additional info:
* package version(s)
community/python2-gnupg 0.4.0-2
extra/gajim 0.16.8-1.hyperbola2
* config and/or log files etc.
/usr/lib/python2.7/site-packages/gajim/common/gajim.py
Steps to reproduce:
With Gajim working is not possible to assign an OpenPGP key because it needs a wrapper. Therefore python2-gnupgp package is needed. But after installing python2-gnupgp, Gajim doesn’t start. The following output is displayed from the console:
07/21/2018 18:00:41 (E) gajim.c.gnupg Unable to run gpg - it may not be available.
Traceback (most recent call last):

File "/usr/lib/python2.7/site-packages/gnupg.py", line 761, in __init__
raise OSError(msg)
OSError: Unable to run gpg - it may not be available.
After doing some search, the issue is that gajim.py is trying to call ‘gpg’ as ‘gpg1’.
# grep -n GPG_BINARY /usr/lib/python2.7/site-packages/gajim/common/gajim.py
162:GPG_BINARY = ‘gpg1’
By replacing ‘gpg’ instead of ‘gpg1’, Gajim will start normally with OpenPGP feature available.
Maybe a newer revision of python2-gnupg is required or maybe a small patch in the current package.

Task Description
here is the description from the website
https://github.com/ruediger/VobSub2SRT
VobSub2SRT is a simple command line program to convert .idx / .sub subtitles into .srt text subtitles by using OCR. It is based on code from the MPlayer project - a really really great movie player. Some minor parts are copied from ffmpeg/avutil headers. Tesseract is used as OCR software.
vobsub2srt is released under the GPL3+ license. The MPlayer code included is GPL2+ licensed.
The quality of the OCR depends on the text in the subtitles. Currently the code does not use any preprocessing. But I’m currently looking into adding filters and scaling options to improve the OCR. You can correct mistakes in the .srt files with a text editor or a special subtitle editor.
Attached is a working PKGBUILD for the latest stable version.

Open source server monitoring agent that stores metrics in Elasticsearch
According to:
https://www.gnu.org/distros/free-system-distribution-guidelines.html
We shall avoid vague terminology such as “Open Source”, please see here:
https://www.gnu.org/philosophy/words-to-avoid.html#Open
It would be good example to set to have proper description of packages without using “Open Source”.
eg.
Free software server monitoring agent that stores metrics in Elasticsearch
