Partimage pthread_mutexattr_t Init Patch

Partimaged crashes with the following error (when partimage client attempts to download image):

partimaged: tpp.c:63: __pthread_tpp_change_priority: Assertion `new_prio == -1 || (new_prio >= __sched_fifo_min_prio && new_prio <= __sched_fifo_max_prio)' failed.

This is with a fully up to date system.

Following link discusses requirement to init pthread_mutexattr_t variable (link discusses same error message with a different application).

Attached is a patch that makes the modification identified in the link and when applied resolves this crash on my system.

This bug ticket is now 8 years open :-) I will close here.
Feel free to re-open, if this persists with current version in tree.
