Bug#566143: libloudmouth1-0: contains outdated copy of asyncns which has data alignment issues on armel

[Sascha Silbe]

Package: libloudmouth1-0
Version: 1.4.3-5
Severity: important


loudmouth bundles an outdated copy of asyncns which has data alignment issues (gcc even warns about them) causing it to break on armel (tries to send a 1MB datagram and fails silently). Since it cannot resolve the Jabber server the whole package is unusable on armel.

Please note that the version of asyncns currently in Debian (0.3 - current upstream version is 0.8 [1]) has this issue as well (so it needs to be updated before the Debian loudmouth package can use it). [2]
