Package: ethereal Version: 0.10.12-1 Severity: normal
I used to run Ethereal with the command "sudo ethereal" from an xterm. After having upgraded Ethereal to version 0.10.12-1, I get this error: ---CUT--- Xlib: connection to ":0.0" refused by server Xlib: No protocol specified (ethereal:8050): Gtk-WARNING **: cannot open display: ---CUT--- /etc/sudoers, ~/.Xauthority, DISPLAY are ok. I can still launch Ethereal as my user or from a root's xterm without problems. "sudo gimp" works, so it doesn't seem a Gtk problem either. Downgrading Ethereal to version 0.10.11-1 is enough to make "sudo ethereal" work. When I upgrade to version 0.10.12-1 again, "sudo ethereal" stops working. BTW, doing "xhost +" solves the problem (I'm protected by a firewall); "xhost +localhost" does not. -- System Information: Debian Release: testing/unstable APT prefers unstable APT policy: (500, 'unstable') Architecture: i386 (i686) Shell: /bin/sh linked to /bin/bash Kernel: Linux 2.6.11-20050727_03 Locale: LANG=en_US.UTF-8, LC_CTYPE=en_US.UTF-8 (charmap=UTF-8) Versions of packages ethereal depends on: ii ethereal-common 0.10.12-1 network traffic analyser (common f ii libadns1 1.0-8.3 Asynchronous-capable DNS client li ii libatk1.0-0 1.10.1-2 The ATK accessibility toolkit ii libc6 2.3.2.ds1-22 GNU C Library: Shared libraries an ii libcap1 1:1.10-14 support for getting/setting POSIX. ii libcomerr2 1.38-1 common error description library ii libglib2.0-0 2.6.5-1 The GLib library of C routines ii libgtk2.0-0 2.6.8-1 The GTK+ graphical user interface ii libkrb53 1.3.6-4 MIT Kerberos runtime libraries ii libpango1.0-0 1.8.1-1 Layout and rendering of internatio ii libpcap0.8 0.9.3-1 System interface for user-level pa ii libpcre3 5.0-1.1 Perl 5 Compatible Regular Expressi ii zlib1g 1:1.2.3-1 compression library - runtime Versions of packages ethereal recommends: pn gksu <none> (no description available) -- no debconf information bye Bernardo -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe".
