Hello. I have a patch for the bug you reported against tiff2pdf. I have prepared a new package and will upload it after the current version in unstable transitions to etch (which should happen be today). I apologize for the delay in handling this problem.
In the interim, you can work around this problem by using "convert" from ImageMagick to create a PDF from this image. Note to others following this bug: this bug is not security related. The problem is that tiff2pdf was ignoring the alpha channel in the image file. It wasn't potentially reading non-existent parts of the file or anything like that; it just wasn't reading the alpha channel. I'm not sure why the original submitter got a segmentation fault, but I have not been able to reproduce this on any system having tried with various versions of libtiff including a plain sarge system. -- Jay Berkenbilt <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe".
