Bug#398289: Copying address into in6_addr instead of in6_addr.sin6_addr in forward_respond().
Package: xdm
Version: 1.0.5-1
Tags: upstream ipv6
In forward_respond(), when filling in6_addr structure,
clientAddress.data is copied into sockaddr_in6 structure instead of its
sin6_addr member. As a result, xdm fails to respond to ForwardQuery
received over IPv6 connection.
I submitted it to the X.Org's Bugzilla:
https://bugs.freedesktop.org/show_bug.cgi?id=8995.
