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
