I'm still seeing this issue on Ubuntu 14.04. Simplest way I've found to reproduce so far:
yes | telnet some-valid-host Crashes for me almost immediately with telnet: ring.cc:143: int ringbuf::flush(): Assertion `top-bot > 0 && top-bot <= count' failed. Aborted (core dumped) Installed telnet version is 0.17-36build2. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/579773 Title: telnet.netkit assert failure: telnet: ring.cc:143: int ringbuf::flush(): Assertion `top-bot > 0 && top-bot <= count' failed.
