Webmin’s Software Package Update emails are not working

Posted by | Posted in Linux | Posted on 11-01-2010

Tagged Under : , ,

I have wrote yesterday about Webmin 1.5 features. I especially liked the one that will send me a notification when there is any update available to any of the components installed on my Linux box.

To my disappointment, I never got any Software Package Updates module’s email notification, instead I got this in my mailbox

Undefined subroutine &main::list_all_current called at /usr/libexec/webmin/package-updates/update.pl line 12.

I have no clue what this means or how do I fix it. Any one who can help me with this?

Update: A fix is available for this bug

I tried googling to no success and I still do not know whats going on. Does anyone else face the same issue? what is the fix, if any? HELP!

Windows Live now supports importing and sending alerts to your FaceBook and LinkedIn buddies and contacts

More Ways to Connect - Windows Live

I feel they have tried to get in the social networking business by creating this. It is not too attractive has BUGs, especially related to security because its for everyone (no opt-outs) and other contacts can see and connect to your contacts (if you dont have the proper privacy options enabled which are turned off by default). It sucks!!

I received this empty email from StumbleUpon which does not make any sense. I even checked the oringal message by using the “Show Original?” option and there is nothing there too.
