** Description changed:

  Binary package hint: gtk-gnutella
  
  gtk-gnutella 0.96.4-2 in Hardy is outdated, as the latest version
  0.96.5-1 in Intrepid is what is now required by the network. No doubt
  the same issue applies to Dapper, Feisty and Gutsy. Just like the
  resolved bug #6472 and bug #92160, gtk-gnutella reports to the user via
  a popup:
  
  Ancient version detected
  Warning
  ­This version of gtk-gnutella is pretty old. Please visit 
http://gtk-gnutella.sourceforge.net/ and update your copy of gtk-gnutella.
  
  This is also displayed as an icon in the top-right corner.
  
  Intrepid version (0.96.5-1) has been tested to work just fine, whereas
  Hardy version (0.96.4-2) cannot connect to any nodes. In practice, this
  means gtk-gnutella is useless without having the latest version.
  
- It also now says the client is firewalled, but I believe this to be
- incorrect. Even if the network were accessible, a SRU (or at least a
- backport) is still needed to resolve the version popup.
+ WORKAROUND:
+ Grab the latest version of gtk-gnutella from Intrepid (0.96.5-1):
+ 
http://archive.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/pool/universe/g/gtk-gnutella/gtk-gnutella_0.96.5-1_amd64.deb
+ 
http://archive.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/pool/universe/g/gtk-gnutella/gtk-gnutella_0.96.5-1_i386.deb
+ 
+ SOLUTION:
+ Backport gtk-gnutella 0.96.5-1 from Intrepid in the form of a SRU.
