Package: telnet
Version: 0.17-41

After an upgrade from jessie to stretch, and moving my jessie .telnetrc
file into my homedir, I noticed that it was no longer parsed correctly.

# cat .telnetrc
172.16.1.1
    mode char

Yet stretch's version of telnet does not switch to character mode.

A bit of digging on Google shows this:

https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=1505954

I suspect the same bug exists for stretch's .telnetrc parsing.

I couldn't find the package repo or homepage on

https://packages.debian.org/source/stretch/netkit-telnet

or anything central repo 'for all' via Google, so I'm not sure if everyone
is just maintaining everything on their own?
