Package: transcriber Version: 1.5.1.1-10 Severity: important Tags: patch Dear Maintainer,
In olden times, lo, many Debian releases ago, when playing audio in
transcriber, a dashed red line was visible in the audio waveform at the
point where the audio was playing or paused. The line is no longer
visible, which sadly makes the entire program almost completely
unusable. I have investigated and, without fully understanding the
mechanisms, have written a patch to fix the problem (also attached):

(This makes it a solid red line instead of a dashed red line, but I
think it is not an important difference.)
