Description Daniel Webert 2005-08-25 17:08:07 UTC 
net-im/silc-client-1.0.2 does not start

compiles fine, first-time use generates a key, but after starting 'silc' the app
closes direct
Comment 1 Erik Ahlstrom 2005-12-11 04:46:39 UTC 
The silc-slk seems to require that the real name of the user is set.
ie. the fifth field in passwd.

Set the real name and then it works.
Comment 2 Daniel Webert 2006-02-27 08:39:22 UTC 
fixed in 1.0.3 - version bump request in 
https://bugs.gentoo.org/show_bug.cgi?id=122848

changes 1.0.3
- empty realname and hostname is permitted again (and the user gets to see the
error message if something goes wrong)
Comment 3 Markus Ullmann (RETIRED) gentoo-dev 2006-10-26 11:30:51 UTC 
As it's bumped in CVS now, marking as FIXED
