Package: gitg Version: 41-2 Severity: important Tags: patch upstream X-Debbugs-Cc: stefan.tau...@gmx.at
Dear Maintainers, after upgrading to Bookworm I have noticed that Ctrl+Left/Right does not work as expected in the commit dialog of gitg. Usually Ctrl+Left/Right moves the cursor one word to the left or right, respectively. This is true for GUI text boxes like the one in reportbug I am currently typing in but also terminal applications etc. The version of gitg in Bookworm has added a commit message history feature to the commit dialog that is navigated via said shortcuts, unfortunately, and it drives me a little bit crazy. This problem has been reported (1) and fixed (2) upstream by using Alt+Page up/Page down. I have added the upstream patch to the bookworm branch of my salsa fork of gitg (3). "debuild -b -uc -us" isn't working due to an unrelated lintian error: "E: gitg: library-not-linked-against-libc [usr/lib/gitg/gitg/plugins/libdiff.so]" But "fakeroot debian/rules binary" spat out a working .deb that seems to work fine. I believe this is a candidate for being backported to Bookworm as the source change is tiny and the bug is a regression introduced by Bookworm. I am happy to help if need be (but I am not a Debian maintainer).
