mgetty FTBFS on arm64 with the following error.
conf_mg.c:140:18: warning: cast from pointer to integer of different size
[-Wpointer-to-int-cast]
{ "gettydefs", {(p_int)GETTYDEFS_DEFAULT_TAG}, CT_STRING, C_PRESET },
^
conf_mg.c:140:2: error: initializer element is not constant
{ "gettydefs", {(p_int)GETTYDEFS_DEFAULT_TAG}, CT_STRING, C_PRESET },
^
conf_mg.c:140:2: error: (near initialization for 'c.gettydefs_tag.d.i')
Makefile:332: recipe for target 'conf_mg.o' failed
make[1]: *** [conf_mg.o] Error 1
Doing some searching through the source revealed a hardcoded list of
64-bit architectures. Adding arm64 to said list made the package build.
Debdiff attatched, if I get no response to this bug it is likely to be
uploaded as a NMU. If you have any objections please raise them now.
