address@hidden: Bug#54539: freetype2 abuses va_arg]

[Anthony Fok]

Hello!  I received the following bug report and a bug fix to ttf2pfb.c
from a fellow Debian developer on the PowerPC.  Just in case Daniel
hasn't already, I am forwarding it to you.  Muchas Gratias!
(Danke Schoen!  :-)

Subject: Bug#54539: freetype2 abuses va_arg
Date: Sun, 9 Jan 2000 05:29:54 -0500
From: Daniel Jacobowitz <address@hidden>
To: address@hidden
Content-Type: multipart/mixed; boundary="vtzGhvizbBRQ85DL"

Package: freetype2
Severity: important
Version: 1.3.1-0

The attached patch fixes a va_arg problem in freetype2 that prevents it from
building on powerpc.  If you don't have time to NMU in the next day or to, I
will, unless you have a strong objection.

Dan
