Package: gpm Version: 1.20.3~pre3-2.1 Severity: important
Since the upgrade to 1.20.3~pre3-2.1, finch will not work with gpm running. It hangs initializing its mouse support. Investigation suggests that this is because gpm was not compiled with --without-curses while ncurses was built with gpm support. Further investigation suggests that this was caused by the fix for 468465. the "fix" was to chmod +x configure which presumably was not +x already because autoconf failed, but patches/050_dont_link_libcurses patches configure.in, so the broken fix probably just made the unpatched/regenerated configure run which doesn't disable curses Thanks, luke -- System Information: Debian Release: lenny/sid APT prefers unstable APT policy: (500, 'unstable'), (500, 'testing') Architecture: amd64 (x86_64) Kernel: Linux 2.6.24-1-amd64 (SMP w/1 CPU core) Locale: LANG=en_US.UTF-8, LC_CTYPE=en_US.UTF-8 (charmap=UTF-8) Shell: /bin/sh linked to /bin/bash Versions of packages gpm depends on: ii debconf [debconf-2.0] 1.5.19 Debian configuration management sy ii debianutils 2.28.4 Miscellaneous utilities specific t ii libc6 2.7-9 GNU C Library: Shared libraries ii libgpmg1 1.20.3~pre3-2.1 General Purpose Mouse - shared lib ii lsb-base 3.2-4 Linux Standard Base 3.2 init scrip ii ucf 3.005 Update Configuration File: preserv gpm recommends no packages. -- debconf information: * gpm/responsiveness: * gpm/repeat_type: none * gpm/append: gpm/restart: false * gpm/sample_rate: * gpm/type: exps2 * gpm/device: /dev/input/mice -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe".
