Bug#771358: unblock: roxterm/2.9.5-1
Package: release.debian.org
User: release.debian.org@packages.debian.org
Usertags: unblock
Severity: normal
Please unblock package roxterm; I have uploaded version 2.9.5-1 to
mentors.debian.net for sponsorship.
This release includes a fix for #771022 which I think is important, or
more severe, because crashing roxterm can cause loss of data in any
applications running in its terminals.
I see that new upstream releases are not normally unblocked, but I hope
that it can be considered in this case, although I am prepared to follow
the rules to the letter if deemed necessary. I am the upstream
maintainer as well as for the Debian package, and the changes are also
necessary upstream and have been committed to the main git branch for
some time. I think having two different version numbers for what is
effectively the same version would be more confusing for users and make
preparing the package a more complicated process for me.
The other change, although not related to a Debian bug, fixes a problem
with workspace handling reported upstream, and involves a small,
unobtrusive code modification. Again, I think trying to leave this
change out would cause more complication in preparing the package than
to leave it in.
