Bug#629263: mbeq crashes 64-bit Firefox (patch included)
Package: swh-plugins
Version: 0.4.15+1-4
There is a bug in this version of swh-plugins which causes Firefox to crash on
64-bit platforms (see https://bugzilla.mozilla.org/show_bug.cgi?id=650601)
The LV2 port of these plugins has had the problem fixed
(https://github.com/swh/ladspa/commit/3b61bb945c5e09ac4f7e0f4805ff80512af93b8e) so
I tried backporting the fix to this version, which is still the latest release
that works with LADSPA. This fixed the problem and stopped Firefox from
crashing, so I am hoping the fix can be included in the official version of
the package (as I am assuming the author is no longer interested in
maintaining this legacy version of the code, as it has been two years since
the bug was fixed in the new port.)
A patch against swh-plugins-0.4.15 to apply the fix can be downloaded from
