Package: irssi
Version: 0.8.12-5
Severity: normal
Tags: patch
Hi,
Please find attached a patch against 0.8.12 which fixes a segfault
when using the irssi-plugin-silc package with irssi. The problem
manifests when you try to send a message, irssi would segfault in
skip_target() due to a null dereference.
Credit for the patch[0] goes to Skywing <[EMAIL PROTECTED]>.
Thanks!
Micah
