Package: widelands
Version: 1:15-3squeeze1
Severity: important

When Widelands was patched in Debian to close a potential security issue 
recently, there was an addition to the patch, 
which from what I can see was not included in Debian. The addition was made, 
since the initial patch made it impossible
to play games over the network. I added a comment to the original bug report 
earlier, but I am not sure if anyone saw it.
(See http://bugs.debian.org/cgi-bin/bugreport.cgi?bug=617960#18)
I am new to the bug tracker in Debian, so it is possible I should have done 
something differently in my email.

Nevertheless, from what I can see of the patch applied (see the changes for 
src/io/filesystem/filesystem.cc)
(http://svn.debian.org/viewsvn/collab-maint/deb-maint/widelands/branches/squeeze/debian/patches/secfix-617960?revision=18461&view=markup)
it lacks the update which was committed to build15 here: 
http://bazaar.launchpad.net/~widelands-dev/widelands/build-15/revision/5022/

The same commit was also applied to trunk, and is available in build16-rc1 and 
later, but has a bit better description: 
http://bazaar.launchpad.net/~widelands-dev/widelands/trunk/revision/5887

I hope someone will look into this.
Best regards,
Hans Joachim Desserud
