Package: viewvc Version: 1.1.5-1.1 Severity: important
As reported in the upstream bug tracker (#467) viewvc sends the wrong content length when compression is enabled, causing browsers to hang until a timeout is reached (typically 15s). This is fixed upstream in svn (r2471) and was merged into version 1.1.8. See http://viewvc.tigris.org/issues/show_bug.cgi?id=467 This bug makes viewvc virtually unusable, so please merge this fix into stable. I'm attaching a patch based on svn change 2471 but massaged for 1.1.5. For unstable, use the packaged 1.1.9 offered in bug #614509. A workaround is to ensure allow_compress = 0 in the configuration. -- System Information: Debian Release: 6.0.2 APT prefers stable APT policy: (500, 'stable') Architecture: i386 (i686) Kernel: Linux 2.6.32-5-686 (SMP w/2 CPU cores) Locale: LANG=en_US.UTF-8, LC_CTYPE=en_US.UTF-8 (charmap=UTF-8) Shell: /bin/sh linked to /bin/dash Versions of packages viewvc depends on: ii cvs 1:1.12.13-12 Concurrent Versions System ii python 2.6.6-3+squeeze6 interactive high-level object-orie ii python-subversion 1.6.12dfsg-6 Python bindings for Subversion ii python-support 1.0.10 automated rebuilding support for P ii rcs 5.7-25 The GNU Revision Control System ii subversion 1.6.12dfsg-6 Advanced version control system Versions of packages viewvc recommends: ii apache2 2.2.16-6+squeeze1 Apache HTTP Server metapackage ii apache2-mpm-prefork [h 2.2.16-6+squeeze1 Apache HTTP Server - traditional n pn python-pygments <none> (no description available) Versions of packages viewvc suggests: pn cvsgraph <none> (no description available) pn libapache2-mod-python <none> (no description available) ii mime-support 3.48-1 MIME files 'mime.types' & 'mailcap pn python-tk <none> (no description available) pn viewvc-query <none> (no description available) -- Configuration Files: /etc/viewvc/viewvc.conf changed [not included] -- debconf information excluded -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to debian-bugs-dist-requ...@lists.debian.org with a subject of "unsubscribe".
