Bug#862160: xorg: Unable to set background image

[David Griffith <dave@661.org>]

Source: xorg
Version: 1:7.7+19
Severity: normal

Dear Maintainer,

I just now updated xorg to version 1:7.7+19 and upon logging out and 
restarting X11, I found that my wallpaper was set to the default blue 
swirl.  None of the usual methods for setting the wallpaper appear to 
work anymore.
