Title:
netcat fails with an error with -v
Status in netcat-openbsd package in Ubuntu:
Confirmed
Bug description:
In a fresh install of Ubuntu Server 20.04.1, netcat -vlp 8000 fails
with the following error message:
netcat: getnameinfo: Temporary failure in name resolution
Name resolution, both forwards and backwards, works as expected
elsewhere (e.g., ping or nslookup).
There's an upstream Debian patch that changes getnameinfo() errors
into warnings that should suffice. I'm not sure whether the
underlying getnameinfo() error is inherited as well, but neither
Debian Buster or Sid have such an error, nor does Ubuntu Server
18.04.5.
