Bug#1020459: svox: failing autopkgtest with popt 1.19+dfsg-1~exp1

[Håvard F. Aasen]

Source: svox
Severity: normal

Hi,

svox has a failing autopkgtest with popt 1.19+dfsg-1~exp1 from
experimental, log from autopkgtest is attached.

The binary pico2wave uses memory that is now, correctly, being
freed by popt, this has been a long standing issue with the
library. The binary pico2wave therefore fails when used with
certain command line arguments. An example is the arguments used
in the autopkgtest.
I have attached a patch that solves the issue. It is a one line
fix, which duplicates a string before its freed by popt.


Regards,
Håvard
