Package: discover
Version: 2.0.7-1
Severity: important
discover segfaults on sparc64 (Sun Ultra 5 with PCI ATI Mach64 that is not
active as a console) during xserver-xorg preconfigure (log below). The
crash is easily reproduced with
# discover --disable=serial,parallel,usb,ide,scsi --format='%V %M\t%S\t%D\n'
video
Segmentation fault (core dumped)
This prevents xserver-xorg from installing on my Ultra 5.
