Public bug reported: Binary package hint: gnome-system-tools
I was helping a beginner with his Feisty system. I kept getting a temporary file creation error from gpg regarding some bizarre URL when I tried to add a repo using apt-key. It took a while before I noticed the rather obvious problem - his hostname was a URL and gpg uses the hostname in the file name. I suspect he misunderstood the purpose of the hostname box in network-admin and entered the URL to his ISP. Apparently the app doesn't check an entered hostname for blatantly invalid names like "http://hostname.com";. ** Affects: gnome-system-tools (Ubuntu) Importance: Undecided Status: New -- network-admin doesn't perform hostname data validation https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/163720 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is the bug contact for Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list [email protected] https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
