Package: xtightvncviewer Version: 1.2.9-8 Severity: normal I have a file $HOME/.hostaliases, with contents ... bohr vpn252-75.cc.swin.edu.au ... and have set $HOSTALIASES to $HOME/.hostaliases (see gethostbyname(7) for description -- it's meant to be a glibc thing)
All programs I have come across to date obey this file, except of course setuid progs. xtightvncviewer is not setuid, but still seems to ignore me setting a display of bohr:0: > xtightvncviewer -encodings tight -geometry 1280x1024+0+0 -passwd > /home/ssi/tconnors/.vnc/passwd bohr:0 ... Couldn't convert 'bohr' to host address Stracing all other programs (including X programs with DISPLAY set to bohr:0) shows the program opening ~/.hostaliases, and finding a match, but xtightvncviewer doesn't even try to access ~/.hostaliases. -- System Information: Debian Release: testing/unstable APT prefers unstable APT policy: (500, 'unstable'), (500, 'testing'), (500, 'stable') Architecture: i386 (i686) Shell: /bin/sh linked to /bin/bash Kernel: Linux 2.6.15.1 Locale: LANG=en_AU, LC_CTYPE=en_AU (charmap=ISO-8859-1) Versions of packages xtightvncviewer depends on: ii dpkg 1.13.11.1 package maintenance system for Deb ii libc6 2.3.5-12 GNU C Library: Shared libraries an ii libice6 6.9.0.dfsg.1-4 Inter-Client Exchange library ii libjpeg62 6b-11 The Independent JPEG Group's JPEG ii libsm6 6.9.0.dfsg.1-4 X Window System Session Management ii libx11-6 6.9.0.dfsg.1-4 X Window System protocol client li ii libxaw7 6.9.0.dfsg.1-4 X Athena widget set library ii libxext6 6.9.0.dfsg.1-4 X Window System miscellaneous exte ii libxmu6 6.9.0.dfsg.1-4 X Window System miscellaneous util ii libxp6 6.9.0.dfsg.1-4 X Window System printing extension ii libxpm4 6.9.0.dfsg.1-4 X pixmap library ii libxt6 6.9.0.dfsg.1-4 X Toolkit Intrinsics ii vnc-common 3.3.7-8 Virtual network computing server s ii xlibs 6.9.0.dfsg.1-4 X Window System client libraries m ii zlib1g 1:1.2.3-9 compression library - runtime Versions of packages xtightvncviewer recommends: ii xfonts-base 6.9.0.dfsg.1-4 standard fonts for X -- no debconf information -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe".
