Public bug reported:

please sync package cppcheck from debian Unstable

Cppcheck is a programming tool for statically checking C programs and
C++ programs for security vulnerabilities and coding mistakes. Most
common errors it finds are memory leaks within a function range.

It has found 18 confirmed and fixed bugs in the Linux kernel And many
more from other open source projects.

It can do check for example:
    * Bad usage of memset/memcpy/memmove
    * Memory leaks
    * Buffer overruns
    * Check class constructors (uninitialized member variables?)
    * Using old functions that should be avoided such as 'gets' and 'scanf'
    * Invalid function usage. A few extra checks when using standard functions.
    * Division with signed and unsigned operands
