Package: ndiswrapper-dkms
Version: 1.59-2
Severity: serious
Tags: d-i patch upstream
Justification: fails to build from source (but built successfully in the past)

Dear Maintainer,

The ndiswrapper source uses the depreciated c function 'strnicmp()',
this function is not in the libc anymore.  It can be replaces with the
working function 'strncasecmp()' without any other changes.

Then it will compile, and I've had zero issues with this so far.

Thanks,
Jon.
