Package: unixodbc Version: 2.2.4-11 Severity: normal Many connection bugs. These probably could be seperate bugs but I think they all fall under the same piece of connection code,
1. I want to connect to a localhost PostgreSQL data source, but I cannot since unixodbc tries to connect to 127.0.0.1 and fails. ::1 is never tried even though it is the second address that localhost resolves to. I can connect to localhost 5432 with telnet and it connects to ::1. 2. Doesn't seem to use addresses in /etc/hosts file. Setting hostname to an address in /etc/hosts but not in DNS will generate an error that a given host cannot be found. 3. Setting hostname to ::1 displays a message that ::1 cannot be resolved. - Adam PS. If connection code is part of the driver, then this might need to be reassigned to odbc-postgresql driver. -- System Information: Debian Release: testing/unstable APT prefers unstable APT policy: (500, 'unstable') Architecture: i386 (i686) Shell: /bin/sh linked to /bin/bash Kernel: Linux 2.6.11-1-k7 Locale: LANG=en_CA.UTF-8, LC_CTYPE=en_CA.UTF-8 (charmap=UTF-8) Versions of packages unixodbc depends on: ii libc6 2.3.2.ds1-22 GNU C Library: Shared libraries an ii libltdl3 1.5.6-6 A system independent dlopen wrappe ii libncurses5 5.4-4 Shared libraries for terminal hand ii libreadline4 4.3-15 GNU readline and history libraries ii odbcinst1 2.2.4-11 Support library and helper program -- no debconf information -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe".
