Bug#627797: checkfs does not depend on mdadm-raid

Bug#493465: libncurses5: allocates memory that is never freed

2009-05-08 Thread Lars Doelle
Hi, i stumbled over this bug, too, and write to ask what the state of resolution is. The libncurses5-dbg is not distributed with --disable-leaks, at time of writing. If no semantic issues are know i would suggest not only to build the debugging library with --disable-leaks, but the production lib
