Package: zaptel
Version: 1:1.0.7-1
Severity: critical
Tags: patch
Justification: breaks the whole system

When ztcfg executes due to zaptel module load during hotplug initialisation,
ztcfg does not exit causing boot process to stop.  Ctrl-C on console
will not recover condition. Machine must be power cycled.

This is specific to Debian PPC architecture.

Problem due to missing "-fsigned-char" to gcc when binaries are compiled.  This
is due to a typo in the grep executed in the Debian patch to the zaptel 
Makefile.

Patch is included.
