Package: noip2 Version: 2.1.7-7 Severity: normal Usertags: origin-ubuntu hardy
Hi, the noip2 postinst script doesn't handle very well some particular user inputs. For instance: a) If the user's username and/or password contains a blank space, the config script will fail with a bad sintax error and leave the package in a broken state. This can be solved by eg. using "$username" and "$password" in the noip2 call. b) if the username and/or password is incorrect, the configuration will fail and the installation will fail: this will leave the package in a completely broken state. This failure could be handled more gracefully, for instance by completing neverthless the installation with a warning to the user and leave the possibility to the user to configure again the package (for instance with dkpg-reconfigure or by manually calling noip2 with the correct data).
