Dear Antonin,
as per the 0-day NMU rules¹, I’ve prepared a non-maintainer upload
of your package aranym to fix the RC bug #669660 and have uploaded
it to DELAYED/0. Please find the debdiff attached for inclusion in
your next upload. The NMU was versioned as aranym=0.9.13-3.1 (with
low urgency, as the package in testing is not RC-buggy).
Now, with the formalities aside, the reason for the bug turned out
to be ARAnyM not recognising that the kernel was gzipped – instead
parsing the gzip header as ELF header (not stopped by the check of
the magic, interestingly enough) and getting insane size values.
I fixed the configure script and package build-depends to have the
zlib code included again, built in a clean chroot and it works for
me now. Considering you *never* had a zlib1g-dev build dependency,
it probably only worked before by accident, i.e. you (or the spon-
sor) building the package in an unclean environment.
I hope to not have inconvenienced you with this upload, rather ai-
ded you (and everyone else involved in m68k “zombie” revival/use).
Sincerely,
//mirabilos

was still ffs, and the sys admins knew it was good. :) -- Ted Unangst über *fs
