[Gpg4win-devel] mingw32-runtime 3.13-1 bug

[Marcus Brinkmann]

Hi,

if you use Ubuntu 8.04 or Debian unstable, you will encounter the
following bug in mingw32-runtime 3.13-1:

http://bugs.debian.org/cgi-bin/bugreport.cgi?bug=452977

Gpg4win packages built with this version of mingw32-runtime are badly
broken.  The INPUT FD=NR assuan commands will have bizarre NRs, due to
the misinterpretation of a %ld format string as %lld.

The attached patch fixes this particular problem.  This is how it can
be installed and used:

$ apt-get source mingw32-runtime
$ sudo apt-get build-dep mingw32-runtime
$ mkdir mingw32-runtime-3.13/debian/patches
$ cp 01-snprintf.patch mingw32-runtime-3.13/debian/patches/
$ cd mingw32-runtime-3.13
$ dpkg-buildpackage -rfakeroot -uc -us -b
$ sudo dpkg -i ../mingw32-runtime_3.13-1_all.deb

Note 1: If you do not recompile version 3.13-1, you might have to
change the paths in the patch file.

Note 2: You might want to add a new changelog entry to the package
(use version number 3.13-1.1).

Have fun,
Marcus
