No problem, this is a particularly nasty bug in libcommoncpp that I wish the maintainers would fix, here's the actual ticket I opened (with the patch) if you're interested: http://bugs.debian.org/cgi-bin/bugreport.cgi?bug=693471 Maybe it would help if you report to them that you're also affected by it?
