Package: debsecan
Version: 0.4.10+nmu1
Severity: important
[Severity only important because I don't have evidence that it's broken
for everyone, but the pacakge is no use to me at the moment.]
I get the following cron output from debsecan:
Traceback (most recent call last):
File "/usr/bin/debsecan", line 1168, in <module>
format_values['ip'] = socket.gethostbyname(format_values['hostname'])
socket.gaierror: (-5, 'No address associated with hostname')
My naive test script:
#!/usr/bin/python
import socket
import sys
gothostname = socket.gethostname()
sys.stderr.write("got %s for gethostname\n" % gothostname)
gothostbyname = socket.gethostbyname(gothostname)
sys.stderr.write("got %s for gethostbyname\n" % gothostbyname)
[EMAIL PROTECTED]:~$ /tmp/test
got callisto for gethostname
got 81.187.82.226 for gethostbyname
works fine, however, so I don't know what's up (probably needs some
Python knowledge).
Thanks,
Dominic.
