Source: fbi
Version: 2.07-8.1
Severity: normal
User: [email protected]
Usertags: hardening-format-security hardening

the package fbi fails to compile with the new hardened compiler flags
dpkg-buildflag outputs [0].
The problematic flag is: -Werror=format-security
See the ubuntu buildlog:
https://launchpadlibrarian.net/83130127/buildlog_ubuntu-precise-i386.fbi_2.07-8.1_FAILEDTOBUILD.txt.gz
Snippet:
thumbnail.cgi.c: In function 'main':
thumbnail.cgi.c:102:2: error: format not a string literal and no format
arguments [-Werror=format-security]
cc1: some warnings being treated as error

The buildflags are not exported in debian, but can be enabled e.g. by
adding this to debian/rules:

 DPKG_EXPORT_BUILDFLAGS = 1
 include /usr/share/dpkg/buildflags.mk

Please fix the issues and maybe also enable the hardened build in debian.
