I have run into this recently on one of the Ubuntu servers. However, this does not seem to be related to Ubuntu or Debian at all.
The problem is that upstream DNS is running: $ dig +short chaos txt version.bind. "PowerDNS Recursor 3.1.4 $Id: pdns_recursor.cc 917 2006-11-07 12:23:51Z ahu $" PowerDNS 3.1.4 is known not to support multi-line TXT entries. For details see my collection of links here: http://delicious.com/saper/powerdns+txt+bug The results returned are: ; <<>> DiG 9.5.1-P2.1 <<>> in txt _aiccu.sixxs.net ;; global options: printcmd ;; Got answer: ;; ->>HEADER<<- opcode: QUERY, status: NOERROR, id: 29033 ;; flags: qr rd ra; QUERY: 1, ANSWER: 4, AUTHORITY: 0, ADDITIONAL: 0 ;; QUESTION SECTION: ;_aiccu.sixxs.net. IN TXT ;; ANSWER SECTION: _aiccu.sixxs.net. 2478 IN TXT "# http://www.sixxs.net/tools/aiccu/brokers/"; _aiccu.sixxs.net. 2478 IN TXT "SixXS" _aiccu.sixxs.net. 2478 IN TXT "# AICCU TIC/TSP Servers" _aiccu.sixxs.net. 2478 IN TXT "# <name> | <url> | website | tld's" ;; Query time: 10 msec ;; SERVER: 213.134.134.134#53(213.134.134.134) ;; WHEN: Fri May 7 23:01:53 2010 ;; MSG SIZE rcvd: 191 And consequently, "aiccu brokers" returns only "SixXS|". While this is not per se a bug in AICCU, I think we can make it a bit more careful about what is returned from DNS and to ignore all records shorter than 4 "columns". Attached patch does this and fixes the debian package issue (I have re-generated the package and it installs and configures fine). I didn't check whether it compiles on Windows. ** Attachment added: "patch-resolver" http://launchpadlibrarian.net/48067396/patch-resolver -- package aiccu 20070115-9 failed to install/upgrade: subproces post-installation script werd gedood door signaal (Interrupt) https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/458223 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list [email protected] https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
