Package: libiksemel3
Version: 1.2-4
Severity: important
Tags: upstream patch


Functions from sha.c doesn't work properly on 64-bit architecture,
because there is used 'unsigned long' (which is 8-bytes long on 64 and
4-bytes on 32). The way to repair it is to use uint32_t (from stdint.h)
instead of unsigned long. I simply replaced all occurences of 'unsigned
long' with 'uint32_t' and now library seems working ok.

I've reported this bug two years ago to the upstream:
http://code.google.com/p/iksemel/issues/detail?id=1&can=1

This bug makes libiksemel unusable on amd64 if you need authentication
with SHA1.
