Package: liborbit2
Version: 1:2.14.3-0.1
Severity: normal
Tags: patch
IPv4 communication is broken in this version of liborbit2, this is documented
at for example:
http://www.nabble.com/Non-local-IPv4-communication-disabled-in-2.14.3-t2243013.html
and
http://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=354950
This surfaces as a problem when trying to build for example the example orbit
programs (echo client and server) at:
http://www.gnome.org/projects/ORBit2/orbit-docs/orbit/c264.html
But in my case I was trying to get my NFS mounted homedirectory to work with
gconfd, by setting environemt variable GCONF_GLOBAL_LOCKS=1 and setting
ORBIIOPIPv4=1 in /etc/orbitrc. But gconfd would not communicate over the
network. After a lot of debug I tracked it down to this liborbit2 issue.
The following patch to liborbit2 solves this problem (grabbed from upstream and
modified to apply on the debian package):

Now I can run the echo-client and server programs across the network and
finally gconfd works with global locks and communication acrosss IPv4.
