Package: msva-perl Version: 0.8-2 Severity: important With a default Debian hosts file "getent hosts localhost" returns "::1 localhost ip6-localhost ip6-loopback", which msva-perl binds to. However neither the daemon or the msva-query-agent tool support IPv6, so by default nothing works. Also the address to bind to isn't configurable, so the only way to fix this is to change global system configuration, which is a bit nasty.
Since IPv6 support is again/still a release goal adding support for it would of course be a nice fix, but considering that msva will only ever serve clients on localhost there is no real reason to go there.. Having the address to bind to configurable and/or defaulting to 127.0.0.1 instead of localhost are probably the realistic choices. -- System Information: Debian Release: wheezy/sid APT prefers unstable APT policy: (500, 'unstable'), (1, 'experimental') Architecture: amd64 (x86_64) Kernel: Linux 3.3.0-rc5 (SMP w/2 CPU cores; PREEMPT) Locale: LANG=en_US.UTF-8, LC_CTYPE=en_US.UTF-8 (charmap=UTF-8) Shell: /bin/sh linked to /bin/dash Versions of packages msva-perl depends on: ii libconfig-general-perl 2.50-1 ii libconvert-asn1-perl 0.22-2 ii libcrypt-x509-perl 0.51-1 ii libfile-homedir-perl 0.99-1 ii libgnupg-interface-perl 0.45-1 ii libhttp-server-simple-perl 0.44-1 ii libjson-perl 2.53-1 ii libnet-server-perl 0.99-3 ii libregexp-common-perl 2011121001-1 ii perl-modules [libparent-perl] 5.14.2-7 Versions of packages msva-perl recommends: ii libanyevent-perl <none> ii libgtk2-perl <none> ii libio-socket-ssl-perl 1.58-1 ii liblinux-inotify2-perl <none> ii libnet-ssleay-perl 1.45-1 ii liburi-perl 1.59-1 ii libwww-perl 6.04-1 Versions of packages msva-perl suggests: pn liblwp-protocol-socks-perl <none> -- no debconf information -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to debian-bugs-dist-requ...@lists.debian.org with a subject of "unsubscribe".
