Package: src:kde4libs Version: 4:4.4.5-2+squeeze2 Severity: important Tags: upstream
When using kate (or other programs) marked text gets lost when switching between different windows (when an IME such as ibus is used). It would be nice if the next point release could include the attached backported patch to fix this issue. I have been using the patch on several computers for several months without any problems.
