hobbitd_client error

[Thomas Bergauer]

Hi Hendrik,

I am using hobbit-snapshot 4.3.0-0.20080103 on Linux (debian etch with  
all patches) and yesterday, hobbitd_client crashed. gdb reports:

I tried to circumvent this problem by downloading the current snapshot  
(from today), but it failed to compile:


hobbit-ghosts.c: In function ‘find_candidate’:
hobbit-ghosts.c:109: error: expected ‘;’ before ‘if’

I hope this helps for debugging! Anyway I love hobbit, thanks for your  
work!


best regards,
