I admit that I've been remiss in further investigating this because dk-filter has dropped quite a bit in importance. I'm using this feature myself, so I'm sure it's something to do with the submitter's local configuration. I never did get any strace output to allow me to dig into which of the three calls to dk_sterilize() is actually the issue. That said, I'm not convinced that removing the assert() is a bad idea. It's only used in three places, and in all of those places, it's protected with an "if (results ==NULL) return -1". The dk-filter package in Debian is NOT shipping a libdk.so or libdk.a, so there's no risk of affecting any other packages were I to modify the function to e.g. "if NULL return NULL" in place of the assertion. > >From my point of view development of dk-filter has stopped and only > dkim-filter is maintained properly.

The primary contributors to the dkim-filter project have moved on to a fork, opendkim. > In conclusion, can we downgrade the severity of this bug report so > that at least we have the same version from lenny in squeeze too?

I can chase that, if you'd like. -- Mike Markley <m...@markley.org> -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to debian-bugs-dist-requ...@lists.debian.org with a subject of "unsubscribe". Trouble?
