Package: ircd-hybrid
Version: 1:8.0.9.dfsg.1-2
Severity: normal
Dear Maintainer,
There are several issues with configuring ircd-hybrid in the new ver 8 release.
As packaged, in /etc/ircd-hybrid/ircd.conf there is an error on line 108:
max_topic_length = 350
This should read:
max_topic_length = 300;
Range is 80 to 300, and it's missing the semicolon, which produces the error:
[2013-06-13T17:40:16-0400] "/etc/ircd-hybrid/ircd.conf", line 109: syntax
error: };
Provide /etc/ircd-hybrid/kline.conf and dline.conf files to avoid errors:
[2013-06-13T17:40:16-0400] Unable to read configuration file
'/etc/ircd-hybrid/kline.conf': No such file or directory
[2013-06-13T17:40:16-0400] Unable to read configuration file
'/etc/ircd-hybrid/dline.conf': No such file or directory
Password for operator is not recognized when using the system mkpasswd.
There is no other "provided mkpasswd tool" as commented in ircd.conf (tried
/usr/bin/mkpasswd with no option and with md5, but the password hash it produces
is apparently not compatible). The help file
/usr/share/ircd-hybrid/help/opers/mkpasswd is
also missing from this version.
Having /oper privileges on your own irc server is obviously a pressing issue.
If this cannot be fixed, the package cannot be safely deployed and maintained.
Not sure what is wrong with this:
[2013-06-13T17:40:16-0400] "/etc/ircd-hybrid/ircd.conf", line 117: syntax
error: email = "<root@localhost>";
Error persists even when changing the localhost address to a valid domain value.
Cheers,
Mitch Halmu

I'm closing this bug report in the absence of further information
