Package: xterm
Version: 231-1
Tags: patch
The cursor xterm uses for the hidden mouse pointer has a non-empty mask,
so when I start typing, the I-bar is replaced with a black dot, which I
find quite distracting. With this patch, the pointer's cursor has a
blank image and mask and so when it is used nothing is visible.

.
* New upstream release.
+ corrected logic in a font-cache used for reverse-video
(closes: #404079)
+ allow building with configure options --disable-ansi-color and
--disable-leaks (closes: #459817)
+ allow building with configure options --enable-wide-chars and
--disable-c1-print (closes: #459816)
+ add pointerMode resource to control whether and when the pointer cursor
is hidden as the user types; also fix it so it's really hidden instead
of showing a black dot (closes: #460545)
+ add limit-checks to tabs.c, increase maximum column for setting
tab-stops from 320 to 1024 (closes: #462621)

Document that change in xterm.man (new patch 902_pointermode_never.diff).
* Look for luit in /usr/bin, not /usr/X11R6/bin.
* Refresh patches.
* debian/control: luit is in x11-utils now, update Recommends and
