I'd like to report that after replacing the hobbitfetch binary with the one
from my 4.2.0 server, I have had no crashes since.

I've replaced the malfunctioning binary with the known good one from my
other server (same OS and glibc version), I will report if it still crashes
or not.

So my question is, will downgrading my current install to 4.2.0 fix my
Hobbitfetch problems? I did a diff on the 2 hobbitfetch.c versions and
there
is a slight difference - looks like the newer version has some added
code to
handle IP settings in the pulldata tag, but it doesnt look like
anything
that would cause crashes.
I'd be interested to hear if there is a difference in behaviour between
the two versions.

It should be OK to just downgrade hobbitfetch, leaving the rest of
Hobbit as-is.
