Package: netcat-openbsd
Version: 1.234-1+b1
Severity: minor
Hi,
I was looking into https://sourceforge.net/p/clonezilla/bugs/437/
which is known as #1129523 in Debian, where we have:
| The netcat from OpenBSD used to have an issue to receive data from
| stdin in the destination node when the opton "-N" is used.
According to some tests this is still a problem,
and AFAICS this actually seems to be
https://bugs.debian.org/cgi-bin/bugreport.cgi?bug=849192#32
Before stumbling upon #849192 I was looking into
https://tracker.debian.org/pkg/netcat-openbsd and
https://sources.debian.org/src/netcat-openbsd/1.234-1/debian/copyright
to see how I could report this towards upstream.
There we have:
Source: http://www.openbsd.org/cgi-bin/cvsweb/src/usr.bin/nc/
Upstream-Name: netcat
But http://www.openbsd.org/cgi-bin/cvsweb/src/usr.bin/nc/
only reports `410 Gone` nowadays.
It looks like also https://cvsweb.openbsd.org/ doesn't seem to be
really working, the only working URL I managed to find was
https://github.com/openbsd/src/tree/master/usr.bin/netstat
Thanks for maintaining netcat-openbsd!
regards
