Bug Description
Binary package hint: nmap
Description: Ubuntu jaunty (development branch)
Release: 9.04
Nmap 4.76-0ubuntu2
"sudo nmap -A localhost" threw run time errors:
~$ sudo nmap -A localhost
Starting Nmap 4.76 ( http://
Warning: Hostname localhost resolves to 2 IPs. Using 127.0.0.1.

SCRIPT ENGINE: error while initializing script rules:

stack traceback:

SCRIPT ENGINE: Aborting script scan.
I too confirm this bug in Jaunty (development). This only occurs when script scanning is enabled, ie then nmap is used with option '-sC', which is included in the option '-A'.
Please let me know if more information is needed about this. Will be happy to help.
