Rob Hall's solution worked wonders for me. I also added a changelog entry so that update manager won't attempt to replace the rebuilt version with the one from the repos:
sudo apt-get build-dep gpac apt-get source gpac cd gpac-0.4.4 gedit debian/rules (edit the "CFLAGS = -Wall -g" line to read "CFLAGS = -D_GNU_SOURCE=1 -D_FORTIFY_SOURCE=0 -Wall -g" and save the file) gedit debian/changelog (add the changelog entry below to the top of this file, then save and close it) debuild -us -uc -b cd .. sudo dpkg -i gpac_0.4.4-0.3ubuntu3_i386.deb Here is the changelog entry to add: gpac (0.4.4-0.3ubuntu3) intrepid; urgency=low * Rebuild without fortify (LP: #273075). -- Your Name <yourm...@example.com> Tue, 26 Dec 2008 19:02:17 +0100 -- MP4Box buffer overflow detected https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/273075 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
