Package: pastebinit Version: 1.3-4 Followup-For: Bug #679650 Hi,
I can confirm this bug. Plus, there is another aspect of the same issue that didn't get mentioned. paste.debian.net currently blocks submissions with less than "3 or two line breaks". So a simple $ date | pastebinit http://paste.debian.net/ $ echo $? 0 $ fails silently. The server response includes the error message ----BEGIN <div class=status> Could not add your entry to the paste database:<br><br> <b>Thanks to some spammers you need to provide at least 3 or two linebreaks</b><br> </div> ----END but the end user will never see it. That's the same behavior as for very long input: $ dd if=/dev/zero bs=10M count=1 | pastebinit 1+0 records in 1+0 records out 10485760 bytes (10 MB) copied, 0.0771713 s, 136 MB/s http://paste.debian.net/ $ echo $? 0 $ on which reason the bug originally was reported. It creates the same kind of silent error message as above: ----BEGIN <div class=status> Could not add your entry to the paste database:<br><br> <b>Length of code is not allowed to exceed 150kB</b><br> </div> ----END As a quick fix one could compare the defaultPB variable with the returned URL from the server.
