ckermit:
Installed: 211-4 <--This one works, from Columbia Uni.
Candidate: 211-8ubuntu1 <---This one is buggy.

I'm using ckermit to "talk" to an embedded processor running u-boot via
a simple 3 wire serial null modem cable. I.e. there are no control
lines in the connection, only Tx, Rx and Gnd.
Everything seems fine until I go to send a file with kermit protocol.
Kermit seems to change the line to CRTSCTS, preventing any further
communications.
stty -a < /dev/ttyS0 before and after shows that -crtscts changes to
crtscts with the send file command.
Removing Ubuntu's ckermit, and installing
ftp://kermit.columbia.edu/kermit/archives/ckermit_211-4_i386.deb then
works fine.
kermit settings I use that work with the version from Columbia Uni. are:
set line /dev/ttyS0
set speed 115200
set carrier-watch off
robust
