Trisquel 7 "memory leak" issues

Greetings,

Been away, playing with other distros. Wallowing in proprietary filth like the pig that I am.

Anyway, I swapped last year's PC, on which everything worked with Trisquel for a different model, on which Trisquel 6 wouldn't work with the graphics card (hence the sojourn into proprietary land), so I'm trying version 7 (works just fine).

Whenever I sudo in the terminal I get the following error;

no talloc stackframe at ../source3/param/loadparm.c:4864, leaking memory

I have absolutely no idea what it means. I ran the free command and reran it every 20 seconds or so and I can see no steady loss of RAM (presuming that is what a memory leak might be expected to cause?).

Should I be worried?
Is there a fix?
Apologies if this is a duplicated question, I had a quick look but couldn't see anything else related.

thanks

It's a known bug and you shouldn't be worried.

It says :

sudo apt-get remove libpam-smbpass

solves the problem

I just did this; will see what happens on next login, when I do sudo
from the terminal. Looks like a Trisquel package also came out; what
have I broken? Hahah,

Yes, I had a trisquel package removed as well. Didn't seem to make any difference that I could see.

I cannot get Trisquel 7 to suspend though. Or rather, it suspends but will not resume - everything is frozen and I have to force a power cycle on the box to recover it. The same machine suspends and resumes perfectly on every other distro I've tried. I'm guessing this is some missing proprietary firmware?

Ha, I spoke too soon.

My current system (Dell Precision Workstation 390) does not work fine with Trisquel 7 at all. File transfer speeds are appalling - 20 minutes to copy 3.7GB to a USB stick, the best part of 10 minutes to copy 1.3GB from one folder to another (on the same HD). Suspend works but resume crashes the machine totally.

Argh!

Looks like the closest I'm going to get to 100% free is Debian with the non-free firmware added.
Sigh.
