Bug#970827: ping: socket: Operation not permitted while apt dist-upgrade is in progress

Show all headers | View raw

Package: iputils-ping
Version: 3:20200821-2
Severity: normal
X-Debbugs-Cc: witold.baryluk@gmail.com


I noticed this weird thing:

1) ping is working
2) start apt dist-upgrade
3) at some point new ping stops working with ping: socket: Operation not permited
  for minutes.
4) apt dist-upgrade finishes
5) ping works again


That is not nice.

Looking at dpkg.log I see this:

2020-09-24 01:34:40 upgrade iputils-ping:amd64 3:20190709-3 3:20200821-2
2020-09-24 01:34:40 status half-configured iputils-ping:amd64 3:20190709-3

...

2020-09-24 01:45:28 configure iputils-ping:amd64 3:20200821-2 <none>
2020-09-24 01:45:28 status unpacked iputils-ping:amd64 3:20200821-2
2020-09-24 01:45:28 status half-configured iputils-ping:amd64 3:20200821-2
2020-09-24 01:45:28 status installed iputils-ping:amd64 3:20200821-2



So I suspect there is something critical in configure that prevent ping
from working during this intermitent period.


Wish it could be fixed somehow.
