Dear mentors, I am looking for a sponsor for the new version 1.18.5-3 of my package "roxterm". It builds these binary packages: roxterm - Multi-tabbed GTK/VTE terminal emulator The package appears to be lintian clean. The upload would fix these bugs: 598971
For anyone reading -- it's a bug where a terminal emulator isn't setting TERM properly. Kind of depressing, and kind of important! It's also basically a one line change.
Also, as advice for the future, it would have been nice if you had said the above yourself. That way I wouldn't have had to go to the web and find out what the bug is about.
I have a Debian work night scheduled for tonight, but I'm swamped working on mentors.debian.net stuff. But this is a good thing to see fixed, so hopefully you'll see a sponsor in the next few days...? (If not, we're probably just all busy.)
Tony's also being really snappy -- the issue was first raised (initially within Ubuntu) on October 1, and here's this RFS!
