Package: ethereal Version: 0.10.10-2 Severity: minor Trying to isolate an rsync problem (for the curious: it later turned out to be the one reported and fixed in #307923) I captured an rsync connection and tried to display it using ethereal. However the "info" column for the packet of "client initialisation" is hard to read since it is splitted in two lines. An example ptrace file is attached, only this single packet. Screenshot upon request.
Probably the displayer (dissector) takes the \n in "@RSYNCD: 28\n" verbatim as a character and displays it. tethereal shows a similar behaviour, the problem might actually be in the ethereal-common package. -- System Information: Debian Release: 3.1 APT prefers testing APT policy: (500, 'testing') Architecture: i386 (i686) Kernel: Linux 2.6.11.8 Locale: LANG=C, [EMAIL PROTECTED] (charmap=ISO-8859-15) Versions of packages ethereal depends on: pn ethereal-common Not found. ii libc6 2.3.2.ds1-21 GNU C Library: Shared libraries an ii libglib1.2 1.2.10-9 The GLib library of C routines ii libgtk1.2 1.2.10-17 The GIMP Toolkit set of widgets fo pn libpcap0 Not found. ii xlibs 4.3.0.dfsg.1-12 X Keyboard Extension (XKB) configu ii zlib1g 1:1.2.2-4 compression library - runtime
