Package: gcc-4.3
Version: 4.3.1-2
Severity: wishlist
Some projects like exif use statements like this for aligning the output:
fprintf (stdout, "%-20.20s", C(CN(exif_tag_get_title_in_ifd (e->tag, ifd))));
printf ("|");
and this doesn't work (i.e., the output is misaligned because bytes,
characters and cells are completely different things) in multibyte locales.
IMHO it is a good idea to educate such ignorant upstreams with a new warning
about printf format strings that specify %s and the field width (and possibly
precision).
