[rancid] Interesting problem, HP procurve 2800s work fine, 2500s config won't download

[Joe McDonagh]

hlogin works fine to both these sets of routers, however the config for
2500s never gets downloaded and I get this trace back:

I followed the debug instructions and found that 'write term' is where
rancid is having a problem. I ran

"hlogin -t 90 -c"show version;show flash;show system-information;show
module;show stack;write term" 10.5.30.3"

And this is what happens:

...
x699-2520-24-PoE-01# show system-information
Invalid input: system-information
x699-2520-24-PoE-01# show module
Invalid input: module
x699-2520-24-PoE-01# show stack

Stacking - Stacking Status (This Switch)
Stack State : Candidate
Transmission Interval : 60
Auto Join : No

x699-2520-24-PoE-01# write term
...

It just hangs there.

where exactly is "there"? does it output some of the config, then hang?
what does it out with the -d option added?

By 'there' I mean at write term. Nothing outputs after write term. Here
is the output of -d:

FYI, upgrading to 2.3.6 solved this issue. Working beautifully now, and
fixed some stuff with the ASAs diffing files that it shouldn't have been.

[***@CentRancid CVS]$ /usr/libexec/rancid/hrancid -d 192.168.100.85
executing hlogin -t 90 -c"show version;show flash;show system
information;show stack;show tech tran5
sh: hlogin: no se encontró la orden

192.168.100.85: End of run not found
192.168.100.85: End of run not found
;
[***@CentRancid CVS]$
***********************************
the command the file "hrancid" have it is that:
# Main
@commandtable = (
{'show version' => 'ShowVersion'},
