Subject: mtd-tools: ftl_format & ftl_check broken on big endian
Package: mtd-tools
Version: 20041007-1
Severity: important

*** Please type your report below this line ***

ftl_format/ftl_check don't perform the needed byteswapping on big endian
host systems, in order to ensure the correct on-disk (or rather on-flash ;) 
format which is defined be the specs to be little endian (which the kernel
ftl driver correctly expects even for big endian systems)

the required fix to the named user space tools has been already committed to
upstream cvs a few days ago
