Subject: Package: e16 Severity: normal I wrongly decided to trust this upgrade to version 1.0.0-4, but it resulted in a bigger mess than the last nmu upload. Last time I just downgraded to ver. 1.0.0-3 and everything was back to where it was. This time, first I checked the /etc/e16 folder after upgrade, it was empty except for an empty menu folder. When I booted up this morning, e16 loaded fine and I thought the upgrade had worked...wrong! The mouse did not work except in the open applications; no menus appeared with any mouse click, no move to next/previous desktop with mouse scroll, windows couldn't be moved, first try to re-size failed, but second try worked, also the window buttons did not work when I clicked on them, the app menus worked though. Some of the applications' windows were placed wrongly with the top off the screen and not usable. I decided to downgrade again, but upon reboot, since I couldn't restart e16 due to no menus and for some reason now Ctl-Alt-Bkspce didn't work, the result was even worse than the 1.0.0-3.1 version. I was forced to do a forced restore of my most recent backup, unfortunately 2 1/2 weeks old,and then redo all the upgrades. A previous reporter, Travis Crump, had stated that the working1.0.0-3 version should be re-uploaded as a new version. I agree. I have now pinned to that version, since it seems no one can get this right.
