Package: netcat6
Version: 1.0-8
Severity: normal

Hi,

when i invoke netcat6 with 

> nc6 --exec "echo foo" -l --continuous -p 1234 -q0:0

my expected behavior is a server, which listens for connections, prints out 
"foo" to each client connects and closes the connection then (but not exit
nc6).

When i invoke that without --continuous the connection is closed after 
exceuting, as expected.

With --continuous the server allows multiple connections, as expected, but 
as side-effect, connections won't be closed after executing the command. 
I think, this behaivor is a bug and should be fixed.

Greetings,
Michael
