Package: atop Version: 1.26-2 Usertags: goto-cc During a rebuild of all Debian packages in a clean sid chroot (using cowbuilder and pbuilder) the build failed with the following error. Please note that we use our research compiler tool-chain (using tools from the cbmc package), which permits extended reporting on type inconsistencies at link time.

Consequently first case 'a' will be taken, and then the default case will be picked, repeatedly, for the remaining characters. http://sources.debian.net/src/atop/1.26-2/atopsar.c?hl=1082,1093#L1082 Best, Michael
