Hello there, I have just committed a change to the Git head of GNU Inetutils that takes care of this matter, but in itself it is of no con- sequence for the prebuilt packages of Debian. The remedy is to redefine the macro LOG_MAKEPRI in case it applies a bit shift.
It is unfortunate that a message of this kind is not directed to the upstream project without mediators like this BTS. Thank you for the analysis of the matter at hand. Best regards, on behalf of GNU Inetutils Mats Erik Andersson
