Bug Description

This bug report is not for netkit-inetd, but for inetutils-inetd. But the latter one wasn't selectable.

inetd from inetutils-inted (2:1.4.2+20040207-4) opens an IPv6 UDP socket for amandad. But amandad complains
in /tmp/amanda/amandad*debug:

----
amandad: time 0.000: dgram_send_addr: sendto(0.0.0.0.840) failed: Invalid argume
nt
amandad: time 0.000: sending REP packet:
----
Amanda 2.4 REP HANDLE 001-28AB0608 SEQ 1134752574
ERROR [addr 0.0.0.0: hostname lookup failed]
----

Replacing inetutils.inetd with xinetd helps (just added -inetd_compat in /etc/default/xinetd as noted
in /usr/share/doc/xinetd/README.Debian).

xinetd opens an IPv4 UDP socket.

For inetutils-inetd, netstat -panu shows:
udp6 0 0 :::10080 :::* 9487/inetutils-inet

With xinetd, this changes to:
udp 0 0 0.0.0.0:10080 0.0.0.0:* 10889/xinetd

Effect with amanda-client in combination with inetutils-inetd was that "amcheck config" on the server complains:
WARNING: client.local.domain: selfcheck request timed out. Host down?

Ok, just found it was coming from universe, so probably it's not the right place here -> setting it to resolved/universe.
