Oops, scared off the maintainer - "http://bugs.debian.org/369067";. I suppose I'd better get the bug's status as clear as possible for the benefit of anyone who might want to adopt it. > It may well be fixable with a one-line patch to asmounter.c Here's my attempt, which does little more than that. Please note that I Am Not A Programmer; although this seems to build and run for me, on my Testing machine, it might easily be completely the wrong approach for a build-system like asmounter's, and the output .deb still makes Lintian cry. -- JBR Ankh kak!
