Bug Description

If talkd server is configured, utalk immediately crashes. I'm using Ubuntu 20.04 with utalk 1.0.1.beta-8build3 amd64. If talkd server is not configured, I get a normal could not connect message and it exits. When the server is configured, I see the following output:
(~)(master)@localhost utalk me
-[m][*]-------------------------------------------------- utalk version 1.0.1 beta ---------------------------------------------------------
*** buffer overflow detected ***: terminated
                                            Aborted (core dumped)
