Package: bsdmainutils Version: 6.1.10 Severity: normal
When I am in a terminal where I set mesg n, the write command refuses to work (except if I am root). Getting the warning that I have write permission turned off on this particular terminal is ok, but write should not refuse to work. It is simply a matter of removing the exit command around line 125. It was fixed in openbsd a very long time ago, although it seems like freebsd still gives an error (and actually even gives it for root now). -- System Information: Debian Release: lenny/sid APT prefers stable APT policy: (500, 'stable'), (50, 'testing'), (10, 'unstable') Architecture: i386 (i686) Kernel: Linux 2.6.18-4-686 (SMP w/1 CPU core) Locale: LANG=en_US, LC_CTYPE=en_US (charmap=ISO-8859-1) Shell: /bin/sh linked to /bin/bash Versions of packages bsdmainutils depends on: ii bsdutils 1:2.13-13 Basic utilities from 4.4BSD-Lite ii debianutils 2.28.2 Miscellaneous utilities specific t ii libc6 2.7-3 GNU C Library: Shared libraries ii libncurses5 5.6+20071013-1 Shared libraries for terminal hand bsdmainutils recommends no packages. -- debconf information: bsdmainutils/calendar_lib_is_not_empty: bsdmainutils/calendar_config_moved: -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe".
