Package: release.debian.org X-Debbugs-Cc:abiword@packages.debian.org User: release.debian.org@packages.debian.org Usertags: pu Tags: stretch Severity: normal The attached debdiff fixes a flickering bug that makes Abiword nearly unusable for some users. https://bugs.debian.org/851052 The patch was rejected upstream because it doesn't work for GNOME on Wayland. But Debian's GNOME does not default to Wayland in Stretch. And Abiword is more commonly used on less powerful desktop environments instead of the resource-intensive GNOME. This patch was uploaded to unstable (and Ubuntu 17.10 Beta) as 3.0.2-3 just now. The package was uploaded with urgency: high so it should be in testing in a few days. It builds on all architectures so far. I didn't want to delay filing this bug in case it wasn't quite too late for Debian 9.2. Sorry for the late request. Thanks, Jeremy Bicha
