Bug Description

Binary package hint: open-iscsi

Open-iscsi needs this patch
  http://git.kernel.org/?p=linux/kernel/git/mnc/open-iscsi.git;a=commitdiff;h=f0b670c016c85c882bb0583eaef8ea2f7147d4af
for kernels after 2.6.32 to work correctly, particularly when connecting to iSCSI targets that don't use authentication.

(See also http://bugs.debian.org/603990. This is the same bug, but more important for Ubuntu because it's using a >2.6.32 kernel).
