Package: osdsh
Version: 0.7.0-10.4
Severity: grave
Justification: renders package unusable

Dear Maintainer,

Nowadays, osdsh crashes without a message.
The cause I identified is that it looks for a symbol "mixerdevice" in
the shared library libosdshmixer.so which doesn't exist.
Since the return of dlsym isn't checked, it dereferences a NULL pointer.

In the function load_plugin in src/osdsh/controlsh.c:
        mod_mixerdev = dlsym(module, "mixerdevice");
        *mod_mixerdev = mixerdevice;

These lines seems to have been added by the debian patch
06-fix-m-option.patch.

I guess this patch could be reworked to work with the new version.

Best regards,
Celelibi
