new libc broke ssh?
What should I do? I can't login to the box, either with IPv4 or IPv6.
<Md> looks like the new libc broke ssh... anybody else noticed that?
<weasel> it also broke postfix-tls and I think I know why
<Md> I get in the log messages like Oct 5 01:47:23 baol sshd[1913]: fatal:
get_sock_port: getnameinfo NI_NUMERICSERV failed
This is a *different*, unrelated problem:
<Md> weasel: I noticed a weird error with postfix, looks like a sign problem
with limits values
<weasel> md: getrlimit(RLIMIT_FSIZE, &rlim) returned 2147483647
for rlim.rlim_cur when compiled with the old libc
<weasel> md: -1 or 4294967295 when compiled with the new libc
[...]
<weasel:#debian-devel> how evil. the new libc really breaks everything that
handled rlim_t as if it was signed.
