Public bug reported:
Binary package hint: tftp-hpa
Because of Sorcerer's Apprentice bug retransmition of wrong ACK in
tftp_sendfile function was omited. So if one packet, that tftp client
will send to the tfto server will be lost, transfer will always fails!
Why? If tftp server has lower retransmition timeout (per packet), than
the server will be allways sending the ACK of last received packet
(retransmition timeout on server side). So the bug on the client side
is: restart of the retransmition timer (rexmt) on wrong received ACK
packet! This bug can make tftp unusefull.
** Affects: tftp-hpa (Ubuntu)
Importance: Undecided
