svgalib libc6 (was: GS alladin 5.02 is out)



[cc-ed to debian-devel. Hope you don't mind].

Actually, I'm not.

As it's non-free, I don't want to play funny tricks to make it compile
for libc5, and as it should use svgalib, I cannot build it for libc6.

I've tried to get a libc6 version of svgalib, and I got it to
compile, but it simply segfaults, and I don't have enough time to
fix it, or even to discuss it with the upstream maintainer to
help him.


If there is anyone listening who may be able to get svgalib
for libc6 going, please! Currently, gs and gnuplot are waiting
for a libc6 version of svgalib.
