Bug Description

dosemu 1.2.1, as found in Multiverse, running under Breezy updated to 17 September, crashes on launch with a segmentation fault. I downloaded the 1.2.2 rpm from www.dosemu.org, used alien to create a Debian package, and this works perfectly. Could multiverse get the 1.2.2 version so that Dosemu can work with Breezy?

Dapper currently contains 1.2.2-3build1. Since Breezy has been frozen since its release last fall it will not get this newer version of dosemu. I'll mark this report as fixed and if someone still experience this problem in Dapper with the newer version of Dosemu, please re-open this report.

I have the same problem with Dapper Drake, with all its updates installed.
I tused alien and the rpm package to make Dosemu work, the version I installed with Synaptic doesn't launch properly. Seems to me that this bug should be re-opened.

(see the rather short USENET thread that begins with MessageID: 44d8e463$0$161$<email address hidden> for more information, like the error message I was getting and so on).
