Debian ship a completely different version of netcat from Fedora. Not
just a different version, but it appears to be a different codebase.
Debian's netcat doesn't support the (very useful) -U option, so this
code fails in src/remote_internal.c:
cmd_argv[j++] = strdup (command);
//.....
cmd_argv[j++] = strdup (server);
cmd_argv[j++] = strdup (netcat ? netcat : "nc");
cmd_argv[j++] = strdup ("-U");
cmd_argv[j++] = strdup (sockname ? sockname :
LIBVIRTD_PRIV_UNIX_SOCKET);
cmd_argv[j++] = 0;
As a result of this remote-over-ssh fails on Debian. I'm not completely
sure how to solve this at the moment. If anyone has any ideas ...
Rich.
