B) The real fix by Eric: m4 should really be linked against libsigsegv. Release managers: Is it too late in the freeze to fix B? (The patch would be very small, it would be a matter of adding a Build-Depends). Yes, it is too late. In case it is too late: May I fix bug A in wheezy at least? (In this case the .deb would not change in functionality, but the build process would never create a different .deb by accident). This one would probably have been ok, but not with 1.4.16-4 now being in sid with the other change. Cheers, Julien signature.asc Description: Digital signature
