amiga-fdisk: ftbfs with GCC-14
Hi,
I need to fix this bug if we want to have amiga-fdisk in trixie:
https://bugs.debian.org/cgi-bin/bugreport.cgi?bug=1074807
The attached patch fixes the error and removes one of the warnings, I assume
that this is the correct solution?
There are a couple more warnings which will probably become errors in one of
the next gcc releases (We are at version 14? The last GCC version I
remember using was something like 2.9, and I still have 2.6.3 on 10 floppy
disks somewhere...). I am not sure how to get rid of those warnings.

I tried defining n in fdisk.c as unsigned int but this caused even more
warnings in other places. Do I have to cast the arguments in sscanf to
unsigned int? It wants "unsigned int *", is it as simple as this or is
there a better solution?
