Hi,
Please unblock package hydra. The updated package fixes a problem
observed on amd64: Restoring a session using `hydra -R` will sometimes
cause all forked processes to die with a "double free or corruption"
error.
The newly included patch (also merged by upstream) allocates the
required size to store pointers (which is not generally sizeof(int))
correctly, fixing the bug described above. The patch is quite small
(only changes three lines) and fixes Debian bug #861058 which has
severity important. The upload also includes a minor update to the man
page.
The changelog entry is:
hydra (8.3-3) unstable; urgency=medium
* Team upload.
[ Gianfranco Costamagna ]
* Fix newline in manpage (Closes: #853807)
[ Lukas Schwaighofer ]
* Allocate required pointer size correctly. This fixes an issue with
session restore (`hydra -R`) causing the forked hydra processes to die
with a "double free or corruption" error. (Closes: #861058)

Thank you
