Bug Description
Binary package hint: dhelp
"dhelp_parse -a" from dhelp version 0.5.24 (feisty (and etch)) crashes for me with message:
*** stack smashing detected ***: dhelp_parse terminated
Bug is in line 66 of dhelp_parse.c - the line:
for ( ; *s!='\n'; s++);
should read:
for ( ; *s!='\n' && *s != '\0'; s++);

This also happened to me in Feisty while compiling the auctex package.
