An [Impact] section explaining the severity and frequency of the bug on users and justification for backporting the fix to the stable release:
Prevents drag and drop from working when using remote desktop protocols like VNC and RDP. A [Development Fix] section with an explanation of how the bug has been addressed in the development branch, including the relevant version numbers of packages modified in order to implement the fix. Just the patch at http://git.gnome.org/browse/gtk+/commit/?h=gtk-2-24&id=2a9bf2619a742be3dbc41bab5854eb0d8b5689bb A [Stable Fix] section pointing out a minimal patch applicable to the stable version of the package. If preparing a patch is likely to be time-consuming, it may be preferable to get a general approval from the SRU team first. The patch from http://git.gnome.org/browse/gtk+/commit/?h=gtk-2-24&id=2a9bf2619a742be3dbc41bab5854eb0d8b5689bb applies cleanly and works. I just dropped in in debian/patches and recompiled. A [Test Case] section with detailed instructions how to reproduce the bug. These should allow someone who is not familiar with the affected package to reproduce the bug and verify that the updated package fixes the problem. Set up an X VNC server per http://linuxreviews.org/howtos/xvnc/ and connect to it with your favorite VNC client. Try and drag and drop from a GTK2 application. A [Regression Potential] section with a discussion of likelihood and potential severity of regressions and how users could get inadvertently affected. Low; patch directly targets the problem and is already backported in later releases.
