Subject: unsafe casts

Date: Sun, 12 Oct 1997 23:12:25 -0600

Package: ispell
Version: 3.1.20-0.1

Building ispell on alpha revealed a number of warnings of the form:

   buildhash.c:244: warning: cast to pointer from integer of different size

On machines like alpha where sizeof(int) != sizeof(ptr), these are often more
than just warnings.

I received the following request from the upstream maintainer;
please reply to 13820@bugs.debian.org with the specific warnings,
or to let us know if you can no longer do that yourself.  Thanks.

   * Merge patches for new upstream version:

       does not support all of the `!!' variables (closes: #324226).
 .
   * debian/control:
     + add wamerican as an default recommendation for wordlist (closes: #595749);

     MAXAFFIXLEN and MAXSTRINGCHARS (closes: #176926).
