This package needs a patch to work on amd64; a patch is supplied.

The README for the package says:

Note for all 64-bit systems: when your `long'-type vars are 64 bit, .wav
headers are not read/written correctly (=bug). If you replace every `long'
with an `int' (or other 32-bit type), everything should be fine.

Therefor, a patch should be applied on amd64 machines. I attach what I think is
the appropriate patch.

Reproducible: Always
Steps to Reproduce:
How to test:
Run gramofile
Select "3. Locate Tracks"
Pick any WAV file, select "Start computation" on following screen.

Actual Results:  
Unpatched version: an error appears: "The source file is a .wav file with
unknown format"


Expected Results:  
Patched version: This error does not appear.

The patch works for me, as Uri described I was unable to read WAV files without it.
Thanks Uri.

That does not seems good, please use standard integer types.
