I just got it by this bug as well and IMHO the current solution (upgrading to the versions in experimental) is not fine: virt-viewer in sid is still broken and, after having visited the bug report, there is no ETA for a fixed version in sid. BTW, I know I am complaining without helping, but I am currently lacking time for my work as well :-( On a side note, the debian/changelog is a bit empty WRT the reasons for new uploads since 0.5.4-1 (and #684725 has not marked as fixed), which means that apt-listchanges for virt-viewer is useless: --8<---------------cut here---------------start------------->8--- virt-viewer (0.5.5-3) unstable; urgency=low * New upload -- Laurent Léonard <laur...@open-minds.org> Sun, 24 Feb 2013 19:45:49 +0100 virt-viewer (0.5.5-2) unstable; urgency=low * New upload -- Laurent Léonard <laur...@open-minds.org> Sun, 24 Feb 2013 16:53:02 +0100 virt-viewer (0.5.5-1) unstable; urgency=low * [5bf850a] Imported Upstream version 0.5.5 (Closes: #684725) -- Laurent Léonard <laur...@open-minds.org> Wed, 20 Feb 2013 23:20:54 +0100 virt-viewer (0.5.4-1) unstable; urgency=low * [e3fbded] Imported Upstream version 0.5.4 * [43b4d1e] Remove LDFLAGS override -- Laurent Léonard <laur...@open-minds.org> Mon, 17 Sep 2012 23:09:48 +0200 --8<---------------cut here---------------end--------------->8--- Thx, bye, Gismo / Luca
