I believe the reason that it currently doesn't work is due to it being the old version. Lying about the version is possibly a solution, but that's cheating imo (and bad for the network). It would be much better to introduce the new version as a SRU (at least for Hardy).
I understand that a small patch is desired to reduce the chance of regressions, but in this case, the existing version is itself the problem, and users have an application that is next to useless (hence the high priority). This problem is best solved as a backport in the form of a SRU. -- gtk-gnutella cannot connect to newer network - ancient version detected https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/248055 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
