Package: memtester
Severity: normal
Memtest segfaults when I press Ctrl-C. Problems on 64-bit architectures
are a known problem with version 2.x, it would be nice if Debian could
update to the 4.x version:
http://pyropus.ca/software/memtester/
2.x is something like 5 years old :)
Anyway. This is what I get:

Finally Debian got the new 4.x version! Could you test if this problem
still exists?

This seems to be fixed. I've tested this on an Athlon X2 box (64-bit)
with Etch and 2.6.20.6
Installing the package didn't work because:
dpkg: dependency problems prevent configuration of memtester:
memtester depends on libc6 (>= 2.6.1-1); however:
Version of libc6 on system is 2.3.6.ds1-13etch2.
I extracted the package and ran the binary manually and that seems to
work without a problem:

memtester version 4.0.7 (64-bit)
