Since this bug has been filed and confirmed, 0.9.x has been introduced in Intrepid. Does this release resolve the issue?
As for Hardy, I agree this is a bug that should be fixed particularly since the fix is so simple. However, the above patch needs to be reformatted as a StableReleaseUpdate: (1) The target should be against "hardy-proposed" with a clearly-worded concise description of the bug fixed, along with a (LP: 123456) link back to this bug. (2) The patch should use the native patch system in the VLC package. If you are interested in making those changes for sponsorship, please do so. If you aren't, please let us know so someone else can take a stab at it. Thanks for your detective work, everyone. -- VLC does not open files with Plus-signs in name https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/215784 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
