Package: python-xmpp
Version: 0.4.1-cvs20080505.2
Severity: important
Tags: upstream patch
Hi,
while using Rene's great dvcs-autosync, I stumbled over a bug in xmpppy (which
dvcs-autosync uses inderectly through python-jabberbot, both authors CC'ed).
I've booted my machine at the university and also started dvcs-autosync there.
At this time my /etc/resolv.conf contained 192.168.10.1 as the only available
nameserver. After finishing work I sent my laptop to sleep and went home where
I resumed the laptop. After some time I accidenally looked at the console
dvcs-autosync was running in, and it was flooded with the following message:
An error occurred while looking up _xmpp-client._tcp.example.com
ERROR:jabberbot:unable to connect to server example.com.
I checked my WiFi, my resolver and all was fine, I could get SRV for
_xmpp-client._tcp.example.com without any problems, just not in the running
dvcs-autosync process. Then I realized the nameserver change, as the ns at home
is running on 192.168.0.1 and xmpppy was still trying to query 192.168.10.1.
A short look at the code and in the dnspython docs resulted in the attached
patch. Yes, it creates a new dns.resolver.Resolver object every time, but who
cares? :)
FIY: checked 0.5.0rc1, the problem ain't fixed there.
FIY2: marking as important as it affects every "long" running process on a
roaming machine, which should be pretty common in 2011 ;)
Regards
Evgeni
