Erm, that's odd, it shouldn't have fixed it :-) It was only supposed to help in getting some more debug information. I've just realised that I uploaded the packages based on the karmic versions, so there were more changes than I expected. I just uploaded new ones with just the one change so we can narrow down what happened. Could you now do the following: * Downgrade to the released packages in jaunty and check the bug is still there. (if it isn't something weird is going on). * Install the +jw3 packages from that PPA and see if they fix it. If they do then that patch does more than I expect, if not then it's something fixed in karmic, so we can work out what.
