[Mldonkey-bugs] [bug #9356] Phantom sources for nonexistant files

[Sam Dennis]

Follow-up Comment #8, bug #9356 (project mldonkey):

This is probably caused by the "neighbours" system which "proposes" sources
for files from our known clients.  So technically this behaviour isn't a bug
but it is unnecessary (the code presumably dates to a time when mldonkey had
problems with searching or at least before the implmeentation of
overnet/kademlia) and highly undesirable as at least one client (emule) bans
if it receives too many queries for files it isn't sharing or downloading.

I have disabled this system in my working tree and do not experience the
symptoms described here.
