Bug#552577: kmchart: FTBFS with GCC 4.4 and eglibc 2.10

[Nathan Scott]

Thanks Simon.  A while ago, the "kmchart" package was renamed
to "pcp-gui".  This fix has been applied there awhile back too.
I guess I need to figure out how to properly mark a package as
deprecated in the Debian archive - not too sure whats involved
there though.

cheers.

In Ubuntu, we've applied the attached patch to achieve the following:

  [ Simon Olofsson ]
  * src/libqmc/qmc_indom.cpp: Fix FTBFS with GCC 4.4 and eglibc 2.10
(LP: #459143) because of invalid const char * to char * conversion
