Thanks for your further investigation! One option we are currently pondering for stretch at the moment is to just accept the output behaviour change for ps2ascii. But we are not going to rush an upload, codesearch gives some hint what else can be checked first. Reverting fb713b3818b52d8a6cf62c951eba2e1795ff9624 will not be an option as the CVE fix is important. Thanks again for looking as well, Regards, Salvatore
