Bug#952116: [Xastir] Fwd: Bug#952116: xastir: Impossible to transmit due to malformed TOCALL



Thank you for the bug report.  This is easily addressed.  Since we are
building from a snapshot - i.e., a version somewhere between 2.1.4 and
2.1.5, is there a preference for which we use for configure?

Given that 2.1.5 isn't released yet, my inclination is to use 2.1.4.  I
will prepare the update but check for guidance from the list before
uploading.

Thanks,
tony
