Description Fabian Groffen gentoo-dev 2016-06-03 06:33:52 UTC
nc -U is only needed on the *remote* side when using remote support with ssh, see: https://libvirt.org/remote.html

Related is this debian bug:
https://bugs.debian.org/cgi-bin/bugreport.cgi?bug=516482

Since netcat6 is deprecated, and conflicts with netcat-openbsd, the dependency should be replaced with an ||.

I took the liberty to push this change for the testing versions.

You've beaten my in fixing this by maybe 5 minutes :-D

Err, what about.. net-analyzer/netcat? Incompatible?
Comment 4 Maciej Mrozowski gentoo-dev 2018-03-25 05:58:14 UTC
Nevermind, traditional netcat doesn't support Unix domain sockets.
