Hi Dmitry,

same problem for me here when upgrading to 2.12.1-5 :-( I don't know who's going to read this any longer, as this bug-report has been marked resolved. I reported a new bug to inform the maintainers that the bug re-appeared (#484654) with 2.12.1-5. According to Josselin Mouette: "[...] you should understand that it [the patch] is not causing the problem, but that it is a part of the solution."

... strange kind of solution to me ...

Did you read his entire mail???

Now it is obvious that the fix is not enough for meld, and we will try

Hi Emilio,

well yes, I did. I don't know/work with "meld". So, it might be that there is more that causes trouble with this software, which I can not know of (but according to the bug reports the bug was resolved in 2.12.1-4, wasn't it ?). I was reporting the other bug because the very simple example did not work. I AM MORE THAN HAPPY TO HELP TO IMPROVE Debian, but _excuse me_, I can not understand why to call a patch "part of the solution" if it causes a problem that was NOT apparent before. And I have not seen any other bug-report that is solved by this patch. So for me, this solution caused a problem, which I was reporting. There might be, of course, another problem which has not not been reported, and the patch might be part of that other problem - that I can not know since it was not talked about. But how can it be a solution to the problem I was reporting, when the former package worked fine ???

Please excuse my lack of understanding on that problem.

Manuel
