Bug#777378: gnome-orca: braille output broken when using lightm to log in when xbrlapi bug #777377 is fixed
Package: gnome-orca
Version: 3.14.0-2
Severity: important
Hello,
When bug #777377 of xbrlapi is fixed, the gnome-orca output will be
broken, because gnome-orca has the same issue as xbrlapi: lightdm only
defines XDG_VTNR to the VT number (for instance 7), not WINDOWPATH, and
gnome-orca only knows about the latter, and thus confusingly attaches
itself to the X window 7 of the VT 7, and thus its output gets lost.
The attached patch makes orca aware of XDG_VTNR too, thus fixing the
issue. This change does not hurt even when xbrlapi is not fixed, so
orca can be uploaded first, and the fixed xbrlapi uploaded after that,
Breaks-ing the previous version of orca.
