Package: xmove
Version: 2.0beta2-8
Severity: important
Steps to reproduce:
----
> xmove &
[1] 6909
> Implementing MIT-MAGIC-COOKIE-1 user authentication
XMove 2.0 ready.
> DISPLAY=:1 xclock -update 1 &
[2] 6914
> xmovectrl :1 -move -suspend 1
> xmovectrl :1 -list
1 (no name) suspended
> xmovectrl :1 -move localhost:0 1
Unable to connect with new server
> xmovectrl :1 -list
1 (no name) suspended
> xmovectrl :1 -move localhost 1
----
The first try to move xclock back to localhost fails and returns with
the error printed above, the second try (xmovectrl :1 -move localhost
1) hangs indefinitely and apparently makes xmove go into an endless
loop. An strace of xmove in that situation shows that it's reading a
line of spaces from filedescriptor 3 indefinitely.
I didn't try this program in some year, but I do seem to remember that
it used to work.
Kind regards
FDF

The xmove package has been removed from Debian testing, unstable and
experimental, so I am now closing the bugs that were still opened
against it.
For more information about this package's removal, read
http://bugs.debian.org/486772 . That bug might give the reasons why
this package was removed, and suggestions of possible replacements.
Don't hesitate to reply to this mail if you have any question.
Thank you for your contribution to Debian.
Kind regards,
