Package: bin86 Version: 0.16.17-2 Severity: grave The 64-bit versions of this package don't produce useful code; they're full of sizeof(long) == 4 assumptions, causing as86 to mess up alignment, etc.
Attached patch fixes some of the problems, although I didn't get it to produce equivalent images for my test case (bochsbios). If nobody can step in and solve this, an alternative would be restricting availability of this package to 32-bit architectures. -- System Information: Debian Release: lenny/sid APT prefers unstable APT policy: (500, 'unstable') Architecture: amd64 (x86_64) Kernel: Linux 2.6.18-6-amd64 (SMP w/2 CPU cores) Locale: LANG=ca_AD.UTF-8, LC_CTYPE=ca_AD.UTF-8 (charmap=UTF-8) Shell: /bin/sh linked to /bin/bash Versions of packages bin86 depends on: ii libc6 2.7-9 GNU C Library: Shared libraries bin86 recommends no packages. -- no debconf information
