About the packages that were upgraded. This bug appeared a few days
before it was reported here on 2017-07-29. I can remember I tried to
investigate for a few days before finding and confirming this bug
report.
>From my file/var/log/apt/history.log.2.gz on my own computer I see that
I installed "vdpauinfo" on 2017-07-27, probably in order to investigate
this bug:
Start-Date: 2017-07-27 22:30:56
Commandline: apt install vdpauinfo
Requested-By: dimitri (1000)
Install: vdpauinfo:amd64 (1.0-1)
End-Date: 2017-07-27 22:31:01
So the updates responsible for this bug probably occurred hours to days
before that. I think this update is responsible:
