Package: micq Version: 0.4.8.pl2-1 Severity: serious When logging for first time, micq is supposed to ask for both uin and passwd, but when entering uin it goes directly to proxy question leaving blank passwd, then it exits without error. When trying to enter micq it should ask for password but it segfaults. I notice micq is already in woody. IMHO micq isn't ready at this moment for a stable release (too buggy, poor support for v8), severity set to serious. According to maintainer notes at mailing list it doesn't even support receiving messages via tcp. Take a look at: http://micq.ukeer.de/pipermail/micq-list/2002-March/000503.html Do you think it should stay in woody and get in the next stable release? I know micq was in potato, but there are other console clients. vicq is a good replacement and it resembles pretty well look and feel of micq. It has been in woody for at least 3 months without problems. - luferbu@vpn-central:~$ micq mICQ (Matt's ICQ clone) version 0.4.8pl2 (compiled on Mar 29 2002 14:35:39) in dedication to Matthew D.
