Package: curl Version: 7.28.0-1 Severity: important Control: affects -1 git
(tagged important as most git users will be affected by this, patch is available, thus should be easy to fix and relieve lots of folks ;) Git cannot do proper authenticated smart-http as there is a bug in curl which causes it to not do re-authentication. SourceForge discussion of this issue: http://sourceforge.net/tracker/index.php?func=detail&aid=3577557&group_id=976&atid=100976 The error will look like: 8<------------------------------------------------- $ git push Counting objects: 13, done. Delta compression using up to 4 threads. Compressing objects: 100% (7/7), done. Writing objects: 100% (7/7), 759 bytes, done. Total 7 (delta 6), reused 0 (delta 0) error: RPC failed; result=22, HTTP code = 401 fatal: The remote end hung up unexpectedly fatal: The remote end hung up unexpectedly Everything up-to-date ------------------------------------------------->8 Which will leave you puzzled and googling and trying to re-setup your server side while it really is the client side, or more importantly, curl and then the library version of it, which is the issue libcurl3-gnutls_7.27.0-1_amd64.deb works libcurl3-gnutls_7.28.0-1_amd64.deb does not. Please update to the current git version of curl. As a work-around for folks, installing the libcurl3-gnutls_7.27 or lower will work, thus check /var/cache/apt/archives/ if you still have it ;) Greets, Jeroen -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to debian-bugs-dist-requ...@lists.debian.org with a subject of "unsubscribe".
