libdiskfs assertion failed

[Joshua Branson]

Hey friends!

So I updated my T43 to the bleeding edge Debian in real hardware, which
come on that is pretty cool!  The update process was pretty easy.  I
will describe that in the postscript.  I did get this error recently
when I shutdown the Hurd:

extfs: ../../libdiskfs/disk-pager.c:107: fault_handler: Assertion
'scp->sc_error = 10' failed.

The above error did not seem to cause any major issues, but I just
wanted to let ya'll know.

Thanks,

Joshua

P.S.  The upgrade process that I went through (it was really easy actually):


I mostly copied Janneke's advice:

#+BEGIN_SRC shell
wget 
http://ftp.de.debian.org/debian/pool/main/d/debian-ports-archive-keyring/debian-ports-archive-keyring_2023.02.01_all.deb
dpkg -i debian-ports-archive-keyring_2023.02.01_all.deb
#+END_SRC

Then I added the proper sources to my /etc/apt/sources.list

deb http://deb.debian.org/debian-ports unstable main  
deb-src http://deb.debian.org/debian unstable main  
deb http://deb.debian.org/debian-ports unreleased main  

#+BEGIN_SRC
apt-get update
apt-get dist-upgrade
#+END_SRC

The "apt-get dist-upgrade" command did fail for me.  I rebooted, and
then apt told me to run "apt --fix-broken install".  That actually
seemed to upgrade everthing propery..  Then I ran "apt upgrade" and all
my packages were upgraded.

#+BEGIN_SRC shell
uname -a
#+END_SRC

#+RESULTS:
: GNU debian 0.9 GNU-Mach 1.8+git20230520-486/Hurd-0.9 i686-AT386 GNU
