Package: scrotwm
Version: 0.9.20-1
Severity: grave
Justification: renders package unusable
The package installs /usr/lib/scrotwm/libswmhack.so.0.0. The binary expects it
to be in /usr/local/lib/libswmhack.so. Due to this library not being found, no
single keybinding works - the WM is unusable. The only escape is zapping the
whole X server. Setting a symlink or changing the SWM_LIB define fixes the
problem.
