Public bug reported: Hi,
MLDonkey has a very serious bug which leeds to uploading data blocks twice to eMule clients. This is due to the fact that MLDonkey gets confused by eMule rotating block request scheme. http://hydranode.com/docs/ed2k/ed2kproto.php#upload > Namely, eMule (and compatible) clients use "rotational chunkrequest" scheme, > where each REQCHUNKS packet contains one new chunk and two older chunks > ... > This can lead to duplicate data being sent by mldonkeys, if a rotational > chunkrequest scheme is used when communicating with them. More infos about it, including logs proving the problem, can be found here: http://mldonkey.sourceforge.net/forums/viewtopic.php?t=4576 On https://savannah.nongnu.org/patch/index.php?5664 you will find patches for all MLDonkey versions since 2.6.0. I tested the patch with 2.6.0, without it it uploaded 700MB for a 350MB file to eMule 0.47c, with the patch it send 350MB, nothing more. Please update the MLDonkey package in Ubuntu dapper.
