Bug#520572: libloudmouth1-0: Keepalive does not function behind some routers.

[Sam Rodgers]

Package: libloudmouth1-0
Version: 1.4.2-2
Severity: important


At my workplace we have a CISCO PIX 506E and the keepalive functionality 
of the packaged libloudmouth does not function (disconnects after the 
minute interval that the router is set to assume connections to be dead).

I was able to correct this issue by commenting out the 
ONLY_TCP_KEEPALIVE CFLAG in debian/rules.  The sourcecode for 
libloudmouth notes that some router models do not properly recognize TCP 
keepalive; apparently this is one of them.

Regards,

Sam Rodgers
