isag.

The update used in DSA 460-1 did not fix every occurrence of the bug.
DSA 460-2 includes a more complete fix.

For the current stable distribution (woody) this problem has been
fixed in version 4.0.4-1woody2.

For the unstable distribution (sid) this problem has been fixed in
version 5.0.2-1.
