Hi Felix I tried a rebuild locally and it seems to have worked. I'm not too familiar with this package but it starts without any error messages and from clicking around a bit it seems to work as expected.
So a no-change rebuild should fix this. Not quite sure why the manifest was missing originally, but it might be some part of the build toolchain out of sync with Debian (?). Hope there aren't too many other packages like this. I've attached a debdiff, though not sure if that's required for a rebuild. It is there, just in case though ;) ** Patch added: "artful.debdiff" https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/freeplane/+bug/1720670/+attachment/4961566/+files/artful.debdiff ** Tags added: patch ** Changed in: freeplane (Ubuntu) Status: Confirmed => In Progress -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1720670 Title: Freeplane fails to start in Ubuntu 17.10 To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/freeplane/+bug/1720670/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
