thanks for the information, I had quickly made that change and a test 
but not being sure and not having checked the different netcat before I 
wanted to be sure

I also added a patch in cinnamon to change the upload-system-info path 
(https://salsa.debian.org/cinnamon-team/cinnamon/-/commits/master)

I'll do other improvements and upload probably in the weekend if I'll 
have time
