[Bug 864609] Re: libvte9 fails to record utmp/login entries
This bug was fixed in the package vte - 1:0.28.2-5ubuntu1 --- vte (1:0.28.2-5ubuntu1) quantal; urgency=low * Resynchronise with Debian (libexecdir fix closes LP: #864609). Remaining changes: - debian/patches/91_keep_fds.patch: - vte does not support G_SPAWN_LEAVE_DESCRIPTORS_OPEN when calling vte_terminal_fork_command_full(). - debian/patches/93_add_alt_screen_scroll_toggle.patch: - Handle scrolling differently when using alternate screen or scrolling is restricted. - debian/patches/lp246701_scroll_region_updates.patch: - Fix update glitch related to scroll regions. - debian/patches/backscroll-stream-mem.patch: - Provide a memory-based scrollback stream backend to avoid hitting disk with terminal contents. * Add version for vte_terminal_set_alternate_screen_scroll to libvte9.symbols (probably a bit too tight, but due to changelog truncation this is the best I could readily manage). vte (1:0.28.2-5) unstable; urgency=medium * Update repository URL. * 03_CVE-2012-2738.patch, 04_CVE-2012-2738.patch: backport upstream patches to fix a memory exhaustion vulnerability. Closes: #677717. vte (1:0.28.2-4) unstable; urgency=low * debian/control.in: - Remove obsolete Conflicts and Replaces. * debian/rules: - Correctly pass libexecdir to configure so libvte has the correct path to gnome-pty-helper. Closes: #645104 * Add symbols file for libvte9 for improved shlibs dependencies and bump shlibs accordingly.

[Bug 864609] Re: libvte9 fails to record utmp/login entries
How about updating libvte (1:0.28.2-4) now from Debian when there is still time remaining before the various freezes start in release schedule? It would be nice to have a working terminal application in the next Xubuntu release. The debian maintainer fixed the broken packaging already more than a month ago... -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/864609 Title: libvte9 fails to record utmp/login entries To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/vte/+bug/864609/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs

[Bug 864609] Re: libvte9 fails to record utmp/login entries
See attached patch. Move the gnome-pty-helper into the -common package and install only a single copy of this set-gid binary in /usr/lib/libvte. The downside of this approach is that the -common package becomes architecture specific. I submitted this to the Debian bug also. ** Patch added: vte-pty-helper-path.patch https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/vte/+bug/864609/+attachment/2538922/+files/vte-pty-helper-path.patch -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/864609 Title: libvte9 fails to record utmp/login entries To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/vte/+bug/864609/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
