So. Apparently this has been "fixed" somewhere along the road to Ubuntu 14.04.
The patch is commented out in the debian/patches/series file in version 1.3.0-0ubuntu2. However, the debian/changelog doesn't tell me when that happened (or when it was added, for that matter). -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1031718 Title: Obscure error messages caused by ubuntu patch To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/libjpeg-turbo/+bug/1031718/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
