Package: silc
Version: 1.1.4-1+b1
Severity: normal

Hash: SHA1

Using the regular silc client (built as a standalone, not with the
irssi plugin), if i connect to a new server, the server's fingerprint
is presented to me, with the "minibuffer" reading "Would you like to
accept the key (y/n)?"

If i wait a minute or two, the server will drop the connection.  If i
then go ahead and choose "y", i get a segmentation fault.
