Package: centericq
Version: 4.20.0-2
Severity: normal

I've been using centericq happily.  Still works for IRC, icq and
AOLim. MSN connections fail since Friday -- centericq locks up.  I ran
an strace and saw that centericq opens a connection to
login.passport.com, then opens a handle to /dev/urandom, and reads
from /dev/urandom endlessly.  I thought maybe it just needed entropy,
but it doesn't stop after four hours of reading /dev/urandom.

Wish I could attach the entire strace here... here's a few dozen
lines, let me know if you need more.
