Miredo dies unexpectedly on reload signals.

[Toni Ruottu]

Binary package hint: miredo

I was subscribed to bug 304958 "Network manager handles teredo interface inappropriately". The issue got fixed, but another bug was said to cause similar effects. I'm filing this new bug to pin it down for Ubuntu. It is already filed against Debian with id 554577 in their bug database.

[Toni Ruottu (toni-ruottu)]

Is the miredo Debian package maintainer aware that (s)he should be getting the new version in?

[Toni Ruottu (toni-ruottu)]

Version 1.2.2 which fixes this bug has hit Debian unstable. I've subscribed universe sponsors to this bug. Could someone pick this bug up and sync the package to Lucid? Unless updated the broken package will continue to break IPv6 tunnels for people who tend to move between networks. This includes many laptop users.

Toni, could you convert this bug to a sync request according to https://wiki.ubuntu.com/SyncRequestProcess ? I'm unsubscribing u-u-s for now, please resubscribe when ready.

[Toni Ruottu (toni-ruottu)]

I've been trying to file the sync request. It is possible to do that by hand, but preferably one would use a command line utility called "requestsync". The problem is that the package does not appear at http://packages.debian.org/changelogs/pool/main/m/miredo/
Why is that? Is it just outdated? When is it going to update?

[Rémi Denis-Courmont (rdenis)]

There's still 6 days to go before it hits Debian squeeze.

[Toni Ruottu (toni-ruottu)]

Having it in Unstable is not a problem, as long as packages.debian.org updates. If it does not appear there by ~Tuesday I guess I'll file the request by hand. The only problem is I have never done that. The guide explains it all, but I'd need to find an example sync request to really understand what the end result is supposed to look like.

I filed a bug at https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/ubuntu-dev-tools/+bug/518574 for the requestsync tool depending on packages.debian.org
