Package: libgsl0-dev
Version: 1.11+dfsg-1
Severity: normal

Hi,

If you call any of the random-number functions in GSL and forget to 
initialise the random number generator (or initialise it wrongly), GSL 
SEGVs. This is poor - it should produce an error message. I deal with 
queries from people this has confused surprisingly frequently.

Regards,

Matthew
