Package: tcpick
Version: 0.2.1-6
This started off as an ubuntu bug:
https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/tcpick/+bug/1086534
There's a thinko/cut-n-paste in time.c:time_ascii where there is
an incorrect length memset; this causes fortify to kill it
in the Ubuntu built versions.
I don't see any upstream activity for years, so I'm not sure
there is really anywhere to report it there.

I (re)discovered this error by myself today while fixing the
GCC 5 build failure and I fixed it in the 0.2.1-6.1 upload I just
made.
Thanks for the report!
