Package: motor
Version: 2:3.4.0-7
Severity: important
Motor segfaults on startup.
On AMD64 bit, int is 32 bit, while the pointers are 64 bits. So when
it pushes the int(0) as last argument on the stack for
horizontalbar(nc,sc, ...), it only pushes 4 bytes worth of 0's, in
stead of 8.
Problem is, I see a lot of functions using "..." as argument, and
cannot easily find where they are used to make sure there are no other
instances of this.
At least with the patch below motor starts on my AMD 64 bit system.
