Package: dnsproxy Version: 1.15-6+b1 Severity: grave Tags: squeeze sid Justification: renders package unusable
Since updating libevent to 1.4.13 (which is available in testing), dnsproxy fails to start with the following error message: Starting dnsproxy: dnsproxy /usr/sbin/dnsproxy: symbol lookup error: /usr/sbin/dnsproxy: undefined symbol: event_sigcb failed! Web search indicated that this is because event_sigcb (which is not a publicly exported symbol) is being used by dnsproxy 1.15 and current libevent versions do not use/supply (I don't know the technicalities of it, not a C programmer) this anymore. See also: > http://sourceforge.net/tracker/index.php?func=detail&aid=2909223&group_id=50884&atid=461322 Compiling the latest dnsproxy source version (1.16) with libevent-dev installed works and solves this. Seeing that dnsproxy 1.15 is from 2005, it could probably be update to the newest upstream version 1.16, which is from 2010-01.
