Changes: 
 libsafe (2.0-16-2) unstable; urgency=low
 .
   * Added a patch to prevent segfaults in libdl (and possibly other similar situations),
     by having libsafe cache all needed symbols upon initialization; the following problems
     were caused because libsafe was being invoked from inside libdl, causing libsafe
     to try and call libdl before its address was known.  Many thanks to
     Goswin Brederlow <goswin.brederlow@student.uni-tuebingen.de> for analyzing
     the problem and supplying the patch.
     Closes: #77052: libreadline2: subprocess post-installation script killed by signal
     Closes: #129345: libsafe: breaks libgtk1.3-common postinst
     Closes: #140352: mcrypt doesn't like libsafe
     Closes: #151323, #151577: segfaults when calls dlerror(3)
   * Fixed prerm to work correctly when ld.so.preload-manager is not installed
     Closes: #159351: libsafe:  subprocess pre-removal script returned error exit status 1
