No different time with: datefudge … skype

[Gert B]

»datefudge(1)« ist useless with »skype(1)«.

(The number in brackets refer to the »section« in the »on-line reference manuals«, accessible with e.g. »man(1)«.
This distinguishes between commands and other text grouped and marked by inwards pointing guillemet.)

Steps to repeat:

    sh! /bin/date +'%FT%H%M.%S %a%t'${HOSTNAME_:-$HOSTNAME}
    sh+ . /etc/lsb-release ; echo -n $DISTRIB_DESCRIPTION – $DISTRIB_CODENAME –\ ; uname -rvmo
    sh+ eval HOME=~$USER # skype needs real (login-)HOME to locate its data. Not any effective HOME

ERROR: ld.so: object '/usr/lib/datefudge/datefudge.so' from LD_PRELOAD cannot be preloaded: ignored.

What happens:

»skype(1)« starts, but
• with ERROR: ld.so: object '/usr/lib/datefudge/datefudge.so' from LD_PRELOAD cannot be preloaded: ignored.
• without different time
So »datefudge(1)« ist useless with »skype(1)«.

What should happen:

• »skype(1)« should run with „different time” like most other commands do.
  The »time« is seen in the timestamps of the messages in a chat.
• No error message should appear. The problem behind should be solved.

This bug was fixed in the package datefudge - 1.18

---------------
datefudge (1.18) unstable; urgency=low

  * Introduce multi-arch support which allows one to use datefudge with 32-bit
    commands on 64-bit system (providing that both 32-bit and 64-bit versions
    of this package are installed on system) (LP: #1103281):
    + install datefudge.so library into /usr/lib/datefudge/<arch-tripplet>;
    + add each /u/l/d/<arch-tripplet> to LD_LIBRARY_PATH in datefudge scipt;
    + mark binary package as `Multi-Arch: same'.
  * Use debhelper v9.
  * debian/control:
    + fix Vcs-Browser field;
    + Standards-Version: 3.9.4 (no changes).
