I was able to successfully reproduce the issue using the dapper amd64 version of nis 3.15-3ubuntu2 in a slave configuration against an i386 hardy NIS master server. After upgrading the version of nis on the dapper slave to the version in dapper-proposed, 3.15-3ubuntu3, I can confirm that that the ypxfr segfault no longer happens.
I also nominally looked for regressions from installing the -proposed package; I was able to succesfully set up the package in both a slave and master configuration and ypcat, ypmatch, and yptest all returned sensible results in both master and slave configurations. ** Tags added: verification-done ** Tags removed: verification-needed -- /usr/lib/yp/ypxfr produces segmentation fault https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/47815 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is a direct subscriber. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
