[Pkg-citadel-devel] Bug#478996: citadel-server: Began listening on 10 ports by default

Package: citadel-server
Version: 7.35-1
Severity: normal

I can't recall which package auto-installed citadel, but I was quite unhappy to
note that, without any prompting, it immediately began listening on 10 ports.

frodo-the-cat:~# netstat -tap | grep citserver

tcp        0      0 *:citadel               *:*                     LISTEN      23138/citserver

I am not intimately familiar with Debian package policies, but shouldn't good
sense alone dictate that a package not listen on *any* ports unless specifically
configured to do so?
