Hmm; this bug is a bit confusing; On quantal I've got ytalk(3.3.0-5) to
work with talkd (0.17-15) (using openbsd-inetd)

However, while the text of the report talks about using apt-get source talkd, 
the package it is associated with is inetutils,
and inetutils has it's own talkd, inetutils-talkd.

I've also got inetutils-talkd (2:1.9-1) to work with ytalk using
openbsd-inetd

So that sounds like both talkd's are OK.

However, if I run inetutils-talkd with inetutils-inetd (which you would
think sane) it doesn't work with the log error:

Sep 27 02:44:06 major inetd[31537]: talk/tcp: getaddrinfo: Servname not
supported for ai_socktype

which does sound suspiciously similar (but not quite the same as the
original report - even though I'm not sure whether the original reporter
really intended to report it against inetutils or talkd.

So confirming, since inetutils-inetd+inetutils-talkd doesn't work.
