[Pkg-xmpp-devel] Bug#1032869: the cause

[Russell Coker]

reassign 1032869 libstrophe0
thanks

It turned out that the cause of this was a configuration error on my server 
making IPv6 port 5222 unavailable.  The libstrophe code that connects was 
always connecting via IPv6 and never trying IPv4.  This algorithm will always 
have failure cases as there are more than a few networks without correct IPv6 
configuration.  In a general networking situation trying to connect to all 
available addresses is the best behaviour.  Also having debugging logs state 
which address was attempted and what error was received is good.
