Package: ircii Version: 20030315-1 In ircii when I do a dcc send (no firewall, no NAT/masquerading): /dcc send nick file.txt
I get this error-message: *** Unable to getnameinfo: ai_family not supported Not only Version 20030315-1 (stable) has this problem, Version 20051015-1 (testing and unstable) of ircii is also affected. It works when I use an explicit set of the "dcchost" variable to the name of my host: /set dcchost foo.bar.example But I think it shouldn't be necessary to set the dcchost variable to do a dcc send. ircii should use a default, the name of the host it is running on (or the ip). But perhaps the problem is a combination of two problems, because when I do an strace I see that if I use an older ircii on an old woody box which doesn't use IP-V6 (network functions use AF_INET, not AF_INET6) then it works without setting the dcchost variable. Perhaps it could be a problem with getting the name of a host from its IP (using IP-V6)?
