Package: muffin
Version: 3.2.1-2
Severity: normal
Dear Maintainer,
Debian stretch is still using the buggy muffin 3.2.1, and
https://bugs.debian.org/cgi-bin/bugreport.cgi?bug=877026 says it was fixed only
in muffin 3.4
How can I upgrade my Debian stretch to muffin 3.4 or newer?
In "testing" there is already a 3.8 - but everywhere I look, I am discouraged
to mix -stable and -testing.
Is there something like a ...-backports for Debian stretch users? Why not?
What can I do now?
I have asked here https://github.com/linuxmint/muffin/issues/364 and the answer
was quite sarcastic: Use Linux Mint instead.
But I like my Debian, I just don't want to have my `.xsession-errors` fill up
with 3 MB / hour.
* What led up to the situation?
unplugging my external screen.
* What exactly did you do (or not do) that was effective (or ineffective)?
opening an issue for muffin on github
* What was the outcome of this action?
I was told to install Linux Mint instead.
* What outcome did you expect instead?
That I am told how to upgrade muffin to a newer version - because the bug was
fixed long ago.
