[Colin Watson (cjwatson)]

This is QA-maintained in Debian, so I've uploaded a fix there. We can sync that once Launchpad picks it up; our only substantive delta (libsocks4 dependencies) hasn't been necessary for some time, as it was fixed differently by Debian several years ago.

This bug was fixed in the package socks4-server - 4.3.beta2-18

---------------
socks4-server (4.3.beta2-18) unstable; urgency=low

  * QA upload.
  * Stop compiling with -DCOMPAT. With a modern C library it achieves
    nothing useful except breaking things (closes: #625030, LP: #832779).
  * Remove explicit make dependencies on system libraries, which do more
    harm than good, especially with the switch to multiarch.

socks4-server (4.3.beta2-17) unstable; urgency=low

  * set maintainer to Debian QA Group <email address hidden>
    package is orphaned (#485646)
