Sorry, everyone, I have been extremely busy lately *and* without internet access at home. If someone is able to create an updated package you have my blessing to upload it as an NMU. Otherwise, you'll just have to wait for me to get a little time off my day job, in a couple weeks. -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe". Trouble?

According to the keytouch-sourceforge-page, this should be fixed in the latest version of keytouch. So I recommend fast updating of keytouch! -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe". Trouble? Contact [EMAIL PROTECTED]

Same error in my debian testing.

Bug#487629: keytouch blocks logout
Package: keytouch Version: 2.3.2-2 Severity: grave Justification: renders package unusable Unable to complete logout/shutdown/restart sequence with keytouch. I have to kill keytouchd manually from another term to make the logout process continue. The bug has triggered this weekend after running some updates (maybe xserver-xorg-core 2:1.4.1~git20080517-2~lenny1 ? ) I temporary removed keytouch package from my system to fix the problem. This is the same bug as #186713 on launchpad. https://bugs.launchpad.net/debian/+source/keytouch/+bug/186713 The author (Marvin Raaijmakers) proposed a fix on the launchpad page : "I found the cause of this problem. While trying to do a clean exit, keytouchd does a call to XCloseDisplay. The problem is that, surprisingly, the program does not return from the XCloseDisplay call and thus doesn't exit. I think can this be described as unexpected behavior of XCloseDisplay, because as far as I know XCloseDisplay should allways return. A work around is to comment out the call to XCloseDisplay in keytouchd/main.c."
