It sounds like a regression in DHT or a long-standing issue in FS.

For now, I will simply open an issue on mantis.

Hello,
I'm facing a strange issue when making an attempt to download
something shared with FS under certain circumstances.

It goes something like this:
1. publish something with gnunet-publish or the FS API;
2. immediately copy the URI and use gnunet-download or the FS API to
   get the published content. It works as expected;
3. wait a few minutes, around five or so;
4. try to download from the same URI: the download is stuck.

No matter how much I wait, the download never goes on, despite being a
"local" file coming from my peer. Restarting GNUnet entirely didn't
have any effect, when I tried.

As a workaround I found out that re-publishing the same contents again
allows me to download them, though stuck downloads will remain frozen
and have to be killed.

It seems to be something related to "activity", because if I keep
downloading the contents (e.g. to test the FS API) in short intervals
everything works and I can go on for hours on end without issues. The
moment I take a slightly longer break it freezes, though.

I'm not sure what to look for to diagnose the issue. The log file
doesn't seem very informative and I'm not practical of FS besides some
simple API usage taken from GNUnet command line tools like
gnunet-publish.

I'm using GNUnet 0.23.0 built and installed with Meson.

Thank you,
A.V.
