Package: xastir
Version: 2.1.4+git20191127.bb66a77-2
Severity: grave
Justification: renders package unusable

Hi,

Commit b40016c updated a patch on the version number to add a git commit
reference as part of the version number. Xastir uses this version number
to form the TOCALL, which is usuall of the form APXnnn but now has a
plus followed by the 7 digit ref. This does no longer fit in the 6 bytes
allowed for a TOCALL in the AX.25 protocol. It also prevents operation
with APRS-IS.

Thanks,
Iain.
