Public bug reported: Please update libevent package to 1.4.12-stable-1. This is a bugfix release, so I hope it is still possible to include it.
http://packages.debian.org/source/squeeze/libevent Changes in 1.4.12-stable: o Try to contain degree of failure when running on a win32 version so heavily firewalled that we can't fake a socketpair. o Fix an obscure timing-dependent, allocator-dependent crash in the evdns code. o Use __VA_ARGS__ syntax for varargs macros in event_rpcgen when compiler is not GCC. o Activate fd events in a pseudorandom order with O(N) backends, so that we don't systematically favor low fds (select) or earlier-added fds (poll, win32). o Fix another pair of fencepost bugs in epoll.c. [Patch from Adam Langley.] o Do not break evdns connections to nameservers when our IP changes. o Set truncated flag correctly in evdns server replies. o Disable strict aliasing with GCC: our code is not compliant with it. ** Affects: libevent (Ubuntu) Importance: Undecided Status: New ** Description changed: Please update libevent package to 1.4.12-stable-1. - This is a bugfix release, so I hope it is possible to still include. + This is a bugfix release, so I hope it is still possible to include it. http://packages.debian.org/source/squeeze/libevent Changes in 1.4.12-stable: - o Try to contain degree of failure when running on a win32 version so heavily firewalled that we can't fake a socketpair. - o Fix an obscure timing-dependent, allocator-dependent crash in the evdns code. - o Use __VA_ARGS__ syntax for varargs macros in event_rpcgen when compiler is not GCC. - o Activate fd events in a pseudorandom order with O(N) backends, so that we don't systematically favor low fds (select) or earlier-added fds (poll, win32). - o Fix another pair of fencepost bugs in epoll.c.
