Bug#335483: State of affairs with gutenprint 5.0.2



Hi,

I thought I'd drop some news about this issue, though it's hardly any news!

With gutenprint 5.0.0, 5.0.1, and 5.0.2 I did have no luck using the packages 
as provided on debian repositories.

5.0.0-2 still works fine with packages I build from sources (apt-get install 
gutenprint; dpkg-buildpackage -rfakeroot -uc -us).

Starting with 5.0.1 (or starting with a certain version of gcc?), that old 
useful cure of the problem (building it myself from sources) stopped working, 
however. I noticed 64bit related warnings in the compile run, like:

../../../../src/main/print-weave.c:1492: warning: format '%d' expects 
type 'int', but argument 4 has type 'size_t'

or

../../../../src/main/color-conversions.c: In function 'kcmy_16_to_kcmy_raw':
../../../../src/main/color-conversions.c:1731: warning: cast increases 
required alignment of target type

(lots of them!)
- but I didn't do any checks if this has to do with the problem.

Any job aborts with the printer status something like "Gutenprint: Buffer 
overflow: limit 544, actual 772, count 25", as before. So, instead of the 
Debian standard build environment be fixed, it seems mine is now broken as 
well :-(  BTW, gcc version is 4.2.4-1.

Best regards,
Andreas.
