Package: tin Version: 1:1.9.4-1 Severity: normal (This is probably a duplicate of #323449, but I'm reluctant to reopen that bug.)
Here's a long pet peeve of mine: tin never times out when reading from the NNTP connection. If the link goes down, it will nevertheless wait for all eternity for a packet that will never arrive. It'd be nice if someone could resurrect NNTP_READ_TIMEOUT, which is currently commented-out in include/nntplib.h. -- System Information: Debian Release: squeeze/sid APT prefers unstable APT policy: (500, 'unstable') Architecture: i386 (i686) Kernel: Linux 2.6.26.8 (SMP w/1 CPU core) Locale: LANG=en_CA.UTF-8, LC_CTYPE=en_CA.UTF-8 (charmap=UTF-8) Shell: /bin/sh linked to /bin/dash Versions of packages tin depends on: ii debconf [debconf-2.0] 1.5.26 Debian configuration management sy ii libc6 2.9-18 GNU C Library: Shared libraries ii libcanlock2 2b-6 library for creating and verifying ii libidn11 1.15-1 GNU Libidn library, implementation ii libncursesw5 5.7+20090523-1 shared libraries for terminal hand ii libpcre3 7.8-2+b1 Perl 5 Compatible Regular Expressi ii libuu0 0.5.20-3.1 Library for decoding/encoding seve Versions of packages tin recommends: ii postfix [mail-transport-agen 2.6.2~rc1-1 High-performance mail transport ag Versions of packages tin suggests: ii gnupg 1.4.9-4 GNU privacy guard - a free PGP rep pn ispell <none> (no description available) pn metamail <none> (no description available) -- debconf information excluded -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [email protected] with a subject of "unsubscribe".
