Package: libevent-dev
Version: 1.3d-1
Severity: normal

evdns_resolve_reverse_ipv6 always fails with the assertion:

   evdns.c:2282: evdns_resolve_reverse_ipv6: Assertion `cp + 
strlen(".ip6.arpa") < buf+sizeof(buf)' failed.

the reason is that the function uses a 64 byte buffer for i.p.v.6.ip6.arpa, but 
the ipv6
address alone takes 64 bytes so there is never room for the .ip6.arpa suffix.

so the function will never work.
