* What led up to the situation?

 installing the 1:2.22-1.2 libcap2 version

 when I try to access an intranet address with the '-' sign I receive an
 error, the address cannot be resolved


I have reinstalled the 1:2.22-1.2 libcap2 version and now all work without
problems

Probably something went wrong on  the first libcap2 upgrade. And the
downgrade has fixed it

This bug can be closed.

Bug#736328: libcap2: local address with the '-' sign cannot be resolved

2014-01-22 Thread Davide Prina
Package: libcap2
Version: 1:2.22-1.2
Severity: normal

Dear Maintainer,

   * What led up to the situation?

installing the 1:2.22-1.2 libcap2 version

when I try to access an intranet address with the '-' sign I receive an
error, the address cannot be resolved

   * What exactly did you do (or not do) that was effective (or
 ineffective)?

In a browser i try to reach a local address with a '-' sign, the address is
like this one:
http://A-B.C.local

where A, B and C are the address parts I will reach

   * What was the outcome of this action?

The A-B.C.local cannot be resolved

If I use the A-B.C.local IP address I can reach the server

There is a workaround to solve the problem for one address: write it in the
/etc/hosts file

Also the problem can be resolved installing the previous version: 1:2.22-1.1

Ciao
Davide
