Package: foma
Version: 1:0.9.18+r243-6+b1
Severity: normal
Repeated redefines with the "define" command seems to leak memory.
For example
yes 'define foo a*;' | foma >/dev/null
runs up to about 200mb memory for me and then segfaults.
I struck this in a long script doing successive defines. Changing to
nets on the stack seems ok. Perhaps the stack is more the intended use.
