Package: meld Version: 3.22.2-1 Severity: wishlist Tags: upstream patch Control: forwarded -1 https://gitlab.gnome.org/GNOME/meld/-/issues/889
Hey. There’s an IMO particularly nasty bug in current meld versions, which causes all meld windows (which actually are just one process) to freeze. Took me quite a while to find a reproducer for that which I’ve reported then upstream and turns out the underlying issues has already been fixed in: https://gitlab.gnome.org/GNOME/meld/-/commit/23bcd8f41d5bf6c23fabd38b0ad9babcfb2fe247 which I’ve verified and can confirm that it fixes the problem. Not sure when upstream plans for a new release (the above commit is already 8 months old), ... the patch applies cleanly to 3.22.2 with no other patches needed to fix the issue. Maybe you can cherry-pick that commit.
