Package: fxload
Version: 0.0.20020411-1
Severity: normal
Tags: patch

The "fxload" program exits if it encounters an unknown record type in
the hex file, such as types 2, 3, 4, 5.  Programs like srec_cat create
these, and they can be safely ignored in many cases.  The below
patch lets fxload warn but continue after encountering and unknown
record.
