Package: inn2-inews Version: 2.6.0-1 Severity: important Dear Maintainer,
I'm running a local inn2 fed by suck for decades pretty much without any problems. The last update to inn2 2.6.0-1 in sid now broke it. rnews which (is called by suck as user root like this: NNTPSERVER=192.168.1.1 /usr/bin/rnews </var/lib/suck/batch.blah) now just segfaults: syslog: rnews[15607]: segfault at 30 ip 00002b02ee506a2f sp 00007ffcb8a9ac40 error 4 in libinn.so.3.0.0[2b02ee4f0000+24000] Manual invocation (as root) as in /usr/bin/rnews -h localhost <batch.blah also segfaults. If strace output would help please just request. But running it as user news works: su news -c "/usr/bin/rnews -h localhost <batch.file" No segfault. Articles posted. # ls -l /usr/lib/news/bin/rnews -rwsr-xr-- 1 news uucp 22640 Dec 31 01:15 /usr/lib/news/bin/rnews Best, Marcus Jodorf -- System Information: Debian Release: stretch/sid APT prefers unstable APT policy: (500, 'unstable') Architecture: amd64 (x86_64) Kernel: Linux 4.3.3 (SMP w/8 CPU cores; PREEMPT) Locale: LANG=en_US.utf8, LC_CTYPE=en_US.utf8 (charmap=UTF-8) Shell: /bin/sh linked to /bin/dash Init: sysvinit (via /sbin/init) Versions of packages inn2-inews depends on: ii libc6 2.21-6 inn2-inews recommends no packages. inn2-inews suggests no packages. -- Configuration Files: /etc/news/distrib.pats changed [not included] /etc/news/inn.conf changed [not included] /etc/news/moderators changed [not included] /etc/news/passwd.nntp [Errno 13] Permission denied: u'/etc/news/passwd.nntp' -- no debconf information
