For the old stable distribution (etch), this problem has been fixed in version 1.2.1-3+etch1.
For the stable distribution (lenny), this problem has been fixed in version 1.4.0-3+lenny2.
For the unstable distribution (sid), this problem has been fixed in version 1.4.0-4.
We recommend that you upgrade your xml-security-c packages.");
