Package: irker Version: 2.7+dfsg-2~bpo70+1 Severity: normal I'm trying to backport this package to wheezy, and i'm having some problems making it connect to irc.indymedia.org.
I am seeing: 1401310888.381945||:guerin.indymedia.org NOTICE * :*** Looking up your hostname... 1401310888.382531|guerin.indymedia.org|:guerin.indymedia.org NOTICE * :*** Found your hostname 1401310888.382613|guerin.indymedia.org|PING :FFFFFFFF2A640EF2 1401310888.384376|guerin.indymedia.org|:guerin.indymedia.org 464 irker640 :Password Incorrect 1401310888.384454|guerin.indymedia.org|ERROR :Closing Link: webirc.

This seems like a very bad failure mode because it basically does a DOS against the IRC server. Now I can't reproduce this on jessie, so there has to be something weird with the libraries here... Still, the failure is one thing, but the repeated attempts is another... -- System Information: Debian Release: jessie/sid APT prefers testing APT policy: (500, 'testing'), (500, 'stable') Architecture: amd64 (x86_64) Foreign Architectures: i386 Kernel: Linux 3.13-1-amd64 (SMP w/2 CPU cores) Locale: LANG=fr_FR.utf8, LC_CTYPE=fr_FR.utf8 (charmap=UTF-8) Shell: /bin/sh linked to /bin/dash Versions of packages irker depends on: ii adduser 3.113+nmu3 ii init-system-helpers 1.18 pn python:any <none> irker recommends no packages. irker suggests no packages. -- no debconf information -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to debian-bugs-dist-requ...@lists.debian.org with a subject of "unsubscribe".
