Package: socat Version: 1.7.1.2-2 Severity: normal
When specifying a UNIX-LISTEN socket path, socat truncates the path. The OS is capable of a longer path. If possible, could socat respect the path lenght available to the operating system? If not - I think a longer limit than the one available would be great. (256 characters?). Below is a terminate session demonstrating the problem.
