Package: gnome-pilot Version: 2.0.12-1.3 Tags: patch Our automated buildd log filter [1] detected a problem that will cause your package to segfault on architectures where the size of a pointer is greater than the size of an integer, such as ia64:
Function `crypt' implicitly converted to pointer at gpilotd.c:544 Function `crypt' implicitly converted to pointer at make-password.c:76 [1] http://people.debian.org/~dannf/check-implicit-pointer-functions The problem is due to the fact that the Debian package invokes "configure" without explicit --target= option and configure.in relies on $target without first calling AC_CANONICAL_TARGET. Because of this, the CPP macro USE_XOPEN_SOURCE doesn't get defined and as a result of that, the crypt() function gets declared implicitly. The easiest fix is to do that early on in configure.in, as shown in the attached patch (caveat: you need to re-run "autoconf" after applying the patch to get configure updated). Thanks, --david
