Package: liblircclient0 Version: 0.7.1pre2-10 Severity: normal Tags: Patch Trying to track down a different error, valgrind pointed out that the realloc call in lirc_nextcode is off by one, as it fails to include the extra byte that was originally malloc'd to hold the NULL terminating the string.
This patch fixes it.
