Package: netcat-openbsd Version: 1.105-1,1.105-2,1.105-3 Severity: grave Justification: renders package unusable
After upgrading to wheezy/sid version of netcat-openbsd, a script using nc does not function correctly. If it is run non-interactively, nc.openbsd quits silently before receiving a server's response unless -q sec option is specified: $ printf "GET / HTTP/1.0\r\n\r\n" | nc.openbsd www.example.com 80 $ printf "GET / HTTP/1.0\r\n\r\n" | nc.traditional www.example.com 80 HTTP/1.0 302 Found Location: http://www.iana.org/domains/example/ Server: BigIP Connection: close Content-Length: 0 $ printf "GET / HTTP/1.0\r\n\r\n" | nc.openbsd -q 1 www.example.com 80 HTTP/1.0 302 Found Location: http://www.iana.org/domains/example/ Server: BigIP Connection: close Content-Length: 0 Note that typing input from terminal does not seem to be affected: $ nc.openbsd www.example.com 80 GET / HTTP/1.0 HTTP/1.0 302 Found Location: http://www.iana.org/domains/example/ Server: BigIP Connection: close Content-Length: 0 -- YOSHINO Yoshihito <yy.y.ja...@gmail.com> -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to debian-bugs-dist-requ...@lists.debian.org with a subject of "unsubscribe".
