Excerpts from David Caldwell's message of Mon Jul 12 16:30:58 -0400 2010:
Debian netcat has an extra -q option. This is not a problem except that
the default for the -q option (o_quit in the source) makes netcat behave
differently on Debian than on other systems. This causes portability
problems in scripts--you can even see the effects in Debian packages:
libvirt and virt-manager
This has been addressed in netcat-openbsd, which I thought libvirt had
been updated to depend on by now. Is there some other package you
specifically need to use netcat-traditional in?
I sent this bug before I should have. After further reviewing the state of
things I think I am completely wrong about what the default
should/shouldn't be.
Sorry to waste your time!
