oggenc does not deal with 'large' files

[andrew.46]

Hi,

 I am running Ubuntu Dapper with the repository version of the vorbis-tools package. The problem is with oggenc:

andrew@ilium:~$ oggenc -version
OggEnc v1.0.2

oggenc will not encode a file bigger than 2 gigs. Error message is: "File is too big". A patch exists to get around this and has apparently been implemented in Debian. Details from xiph:

 https://trac.xiph.org/browser/trunk/vorbis-tools
 https://trac.xiph.org/ticket/879

Can this patch be implemented in the repository for Dapper and others?

Back again! I installed Feisty on a spare HDD and I note that the Feisty oggenc has large file support. Looks like only Dapper and ?Edgy miss out.
