Package: discover
Version: 2.0.7-2.1
Severity: important
Hello
While trying to reconfiguring xserver-xorg I noticed that it did no
longer detects my display card right and figured out that discover's
"-t" option does not work correctly on my amd64 although very well in
the 32bit i386 chroot on the same machine.
Interestingly rebuilding the package under amd64 produces a working
binary! Also, when unmounting /sys and using /proc it does work, too.
This is the output of the non-working binary from the Debian package:
> app109# which discover
/sbin/discover
> app109# dpkg -l "*discover*" | grep ^.i

As I cannot produce a broken binary, I cannot give more information.
