Package: portreserve
Version: 0.0.0-3
Severity: normal
Tags: patch
If a configuration file specifies the port to reserve by number, rather
than by name, the port lookup then fails, becayse the reserve() function
fails to run htons() on the supplied port number.
The supplied patch fixes the problem.
