Package: mongrel
Version: 1.1.5-5
Severity: important
Tags: patch upstream squeeze wheezy sid
After the Lenny⇒Squeeze update, two out of my six Rails systems
(served under Mongrel) broke — Or rather, the systems continued
working, but giving incomplete headers (and thus rendering the results
useless).
I came across this similar description:
https://rails.lighthouseapp.com/projects/8994/tickets/4690
It includes a very simple patch, which I'm inlining here:

Currently, the Mongrel version in Stable, Testing and Unstable is the
same, and I guess the bug is present in all three suites. Please,
consider uploading a fixed version to squeeze-proposed-updates!

Version: 1.1.5-6+rm
mongrel was last released with Debian 6.0 (squeeze) in
February 2011 and removed from Debian sid/unstable in 2012 (see
http://bugs.debian.org/663921 for details on the removal). Since
support for squeeze and squeeze-LTS has now ended, I'm closing all the
remaining bugs reported against this package.
