Thanks!
There are two ways to tackle the problem,
1. freeze the strings so that manipulating the strings in destructive
way will give error. (comparable to libc behavior, which returns read-only
string)
2. dup the strings.
choosing 1 will break apt-listbugs, 1 might sound to be more correct
if compatibility is not an issue; I will upload a new apt-listbugs
version in case 1 is chosen.
regards,
junichi
