I’ve found out something about this bug: If you use parameter “-q 0”, netcat won’t print the result. This is a bug. But if you use something else like “-q 1” or something like that, the output will be correct.
A Ubuntu specific patch changes the default value of parameter -q to the “bad” value 0. That’s why the problem doesn’t occur on a Debian system. But if you use “-q 0” (Ubuntu’s default) the bug affects also other distros. -- netcat-openbsd stdout broken on Ubuntu https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/544935 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
