Last week I uploaded a new version of the mixmaster package to unstable to close bug #690206.
Since then Osamu Aoki has suggested to me in an email that I should ask for an unblock request for this upload. The bug was not RC but it probably should have been since the problem caused a SegFault on architectures where "char" defaults to "unsigned" (for example armel). It is basically a one line change, see debdiff below. Please consider unblocking mixmaster-3.0.0-6 so that it can transition to testing and be a part of the new release. regards, Colin debdiff: diff -u mixmaster-3.0.0/debian/changelog mixmaster-3.0.0/debian/changelog --- mixmaster-3.0.0/debian/changelog +++ mixmaster-3.0.0/debian/changelog @@ -1,3 +1,10 @@ +mixmaster (3.0.0-6) unstable; urgency=low + + * fix segfault on architectures where the default for "char" + is not "signed" (Closes: #690206) + + -- Colin Tuckley <[email protected]> Fri, 08 Feb 2013 13:59:24 +0000 + mixmaster (3.0.0-5) unstable; urgency=low * Ack NMU only in patch2: unchanged: --- mixmaster-3.0.0.orig/Src/menustats.c +++ mixmaster-3.0.0/Src/menustats.c @@ -307,7 +307,7 @@ /* Displays the choice of stats sources */ #define MAXPING (26 * 2) void update_stats() { - char c; + signed char c; BUFFER *inifile; BUFFER *pingernames; BUFFER *goodpingers; -- Colin Tuckley | +44(0)1223 830814 | PGP/GnuPG Key Id Debian Developer | +44(0)7799 143369 | 0x1B3045CE Ever stop to think, and forget to start again? -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [email protected] with a subject of "unsubscribe".
