[Launchpad Janitor (janitor)]

Status changed to 'Confirmed' because the bug affects multiple users.

[anarcat (anarcat)]

This is a known issue in the package, and documented in the TODO. The build needs hardening flags, which would solve a ton of those issues, and needs patches upstream:

https://github.com/charybdis-ircd/charybdis/issues/27

Also, manpages need to be written and so on.

lintian is a little cleaner on the debian side: https://<email address hidden>#charybdis

patches obviously welcome.
