Effectively fixing the code is a better solution.

Unfortunately, I haven't yet the time and knowledge
to fix it. I should rely on somebody else to correct the bugs.
This is the reason why I have suggested a lazy workaround.

I hope to find soon the time to read the code in order
to be able to modify it.
