--- Begin Message ---Package: screen Version: 4.0.2-3 Severity: important When entering the copy/scrollback mode (which seems to be easy to do by mistake), screen blocks the output. And if a server is running in screen, this leads to denial of service. screen should either not block the output in copy/scrollback mode or provide a timeout option (the nonblock option has no effect in copy mode). The first solution would be the best to be able to do a scrollback without disrupting a server. -- System Information: Debian Release: 3.1 APT prefers testing APT policy: (900, 'testing'), (200, 'unstable') Architecture: powerpc (ppc) Kernel: Linux 2.6.8 Locale: LANG=POSIX, LC_CTYPE=en_US.ISO8859-1 Versions of packages screen depends on: ii base-passwd 3.5.7 Debian base system master password ii debconf 1.4.30.5 Debian configuration management sy ii libc6 2.3.2.ds1-16 GNU C Library: Shared libraries an ii libncursesw5 5.4-4 Shared libraries for terminal hand ii libpam0g 0.76-22 Pluggable Authentication Modules l ii passwd 1:4.0.3-30.1 Change and administer password and -- debconf information: screen/old_upgrade_prompt: false
