Description Georgi Georgiev 2003-08-09 01:25:21 UTC 
The program from the wmifs-1.3_beta1 packages segfaults on startup.

The bug is only and always triggered when there are lines longer than 128 bytes
in /proc/net/dev

Attaching a patch to fix the issue

Increases a buffer so it doesn't as easily overflow, thus fixing the segfault
issue.

The debian package seems to have a nice and long patch that fixes the problem and maybe a few others.... who knows:
