Package: pioneers-meta-server
Version: 0.9.33-1
Severity: normal
Tags: security, pending

The upstream bug at
http://sourceforge.net/tracker/index.php?func=detail&aid=1425705&group_id=5095&atid=305095
means that a meta-server which does not have the server-console
installed (such as the public meta-server at pioneers.debian.net) can be
made to crash by connecting to it with an old client (gnocatan from
sarge) and requesting the creation of a new game.

This bug has been fixed upstream, and the release containing the fix
will soon be uploaded.
