Package: gv
Version: 1:3.6.1-12
Severity: wishlist
Tags: upstream

(Hmm.  Why won't it let me add "fixed-upstream" tag?)

This is a followup to #295711, which is archived, so can't be modified,
so I'm opening a new bug.  The bug was about the change in command line
arguments from gv 3.5 to 3.6.

I think that having a note in README.Debian is a suboptimal solution to
the problem.  Upstream bug 12154[1] has a simple patch that re-enables
the old-style options.  The patch is a one-liner, and has been applied
to upstream CVS, so it should be safe to apply to the Debian package.

Thanks.
