xwhois.h: #define BUFSIZE 1024 struct serverent { char *name; char *comment; } servers[256];
get_servers(): /* * Set all struct members to NULL. */ for (i=0 ; i < BUFSIZE ; i++) { servers[i].name = servers[i].comment = NULL; } After setting BUFSIZE to 256, the app started OK. But pressing "Scan" locked the app up. I fired up Wireshark, 90 seconds later it's still sending out SYN packets to servers that don't respond. After a couple of minutes, it displayed the results. They're mostly along the lines of "server did not respond", "query format not supported", "this server only has the .FOO and .BAR TLDs". Popcon is 63 installs, 14 votes, and it has a dependency on GTK-1.2. Personally, I think this isn't one to fix. Checking connectivity on my PC, the normal text-only "whois" package has a barely noticable delay to look up whois debian.org .
