Package: liferea Version: 1.6.4-1 Severity: important liferea tries to connect(2) to an IPv6 address, correctly gets back ENETUNREACH since here I do not have v6 connectivity nor v6 addresses configured on my interfaces and the reports a failure to the user without falling back on the IPv4 address. It works again if I close and reopen the program, which makes me think that it incorrectly checks in some way for IPv6 connectivity at startup.
The program needs to be fixed to properly call getaddrinfo(3) in a loop (and then use the AI_ADDRCONFIG flag), if you need an example you can find a simple one in my whois package. For testing (and understanding why this needs to be fixed urgently), you can add http://ipv4depletion.com/?feed=rss2 to your feeds. -- System Information: Debian Release: squeeze/sid APT prefers unstable APT policy: (500, 'unstable'), (1, 'experimental') Architecture: i386 (x86_64) Kernel: Linux 2.6.32-5-amd64 (SMP w/2 CPU cores) Locale: lang=it...@euro, lc_ctype=it...@euro (charmap=ISO-8859-15) Shell: /bin/sh linked to /bin/dash Versions of packages liferea depends on: ii gconf2 2.28.1-6 GNOME configuration database syste ii libatk1.0-0 1.30.0-1 The ATK accessibility toolkit ii libc6 2.11.2-7 Embedded GNU C Library: Shared lib ii libcairo2 1.10.0-1 The Cairo 2D vector graphics libra ii libdbus-1-3 1.2.24-3 simple interprocess messaging syst ii libdbus-glib-1-2 0.88-2 simple interprocess messaging syst ii libgconf2-4 2.28.1-6 GNOME configuration database syste ii libglade2-0 1:2.6.4-1 library to load .glade files at ru ii libglib2.0-0 2.24.2-1 The GLib library of C routines ii libgtk2.0-0 2.20.1-2 The GTK+ graphical user interface ii libice6 2:1.0.7-1 X11 Inter-Client Exchange library ii liblua5.1-0 5.1.4-5 Simple, extensible, embeddable pro ii libnm-glib2 0.8.1-2+b1 network management framework (GLib ii libnotify1 [libnotify1-gtk2 0.5.0-2 sends desktop notifications to a n ii libpango1.0-0 1.28.3-1 Layout and rendering of internatio ii libsm6 2:1.2.0-1 X11 Session Management library ii libsoup2.4-1 2.30.2-1 an HTTP library implementation in ii libsqlite3-0 3.7.4-1 SQLite 3 shared library ii libwebkit-1.0-2 1.2.5-2.1 Web content engine library for Gtk ii libx11-6 2:1.3.3-4 X11 client-side library ii libxml2 2.7.8.dfsg-1 GNOME XML library ii libxslt1.1 1.1.26-6 XSLT 1.0 processing library - runt ii liferea-data 1.6.4-1 architecture independent data for Versions of packages liferea recommends: ii curl 7.21.2-3 Get a file from an HTTP, HTTPS or ii dbus 1.2.24-3 simple interprocess messaging syst ii dbus-x11 1.2.24-3 simple interprocess messaging syst ii wget 1.12-2.1 retrieves files from the web Versions of packages liferea suggests: pn network-manager <none> (no description available) -- no debconf information -- ciao, Marco
