Hi,

gcstar 1.7 is a *small* improvement over the version in wheezy, but I
still have problems getting some metadata out there. I also got this
error:

*** unhandled exception in callback:
***   Can't call method "getInitData" on an undefined value at
/usr/bin/../share/gcstar/lib/GCGraphicComponents/GCDoubleLists.pm line
136.
***  ignoring at /usr/bin/../share/gcstar/lib/GCOptions.pm line 752.

.. which seems fairly harmless - but I wonder if it's related to
12_Fix_GCGraphicComponents.pm.dpatch, which is not applied in the
package here.

Alexander: should I NMU this new version?

Otherwise, people wanting to try this in Debian may want:

apt-get source gcstar
# the following should probably have been done with uscan
wget http://download.gna.org/gcstar/gcstar-1.7.0.tar.gz
ln -s gcstar-1.7.0.tar.gz  gcstar_1.7.0.orig.tar.gz
tar zfx gcstar-1.7.0.tar.gz
mv gcstar gcstar-1.7.0
cd gcstar-1.7.0/
cp -Rp ../gcstar-1.6.2/debian debian
dch -i 'New upstream release (Closes: #703251)'
dch Non maintainer upload.
debuild
sudo dpkg -i ../gcstar_1.7.0-0.1_all.deb

voila!
