Bug#309330: unison: Errors when syncing with version in sarge

2005-05-16 Thread John Goerzen
Package: unison
Version: 2.10.2-2
Severity: normal

I am getting this:

Fatal error: Received unexpected header from the server:
 expected Unison 2.10.2\n but received Unison
 2.9.1\n\000\000\000\000,
which differs at Unison 2.9.
This can happen because you have different versions of Unison
installed on the client and server machines, or because
your connection is failing and somebody is printing an error
message, or because your remote login shell is printing
something itself before starting Unison.


Perhaps the Unison package could include a 2.9 binary, that would get
automatically called when working with a 2.9 server?  Or better yet,
support 2.9 natively.

That's the reason why there is a unison2.9.1 packages. I don't want to
merge this two packages to provide 2 executable in the same package (
because there is only one upstream tarball ).

Please install unison2.9.1, which aims specifically to be able to sync
with woody/sarge system. 

Let me know, if this is sufficient to close the bug...

Regard
Sylvain Le Gall

ps: i was thinking there is a note about this situation in the
README.Debian.
