No relief here, your running sid, so all you can do is wait.
I have the same problem here on lenny. Gpm & libgpmg1 both at version
1.19.6-25. Upgraded this morning.
Uhm. I thought so. But wasn't sure - could not google that bug out -
maybe I just did not know what to look for. I thought it might be
something which requires configuration changes.
If you're running sid, you really should do two things:
aptitude install apt-listbugs
and watch this list closely before you upgrade. I try to upgrade every
day, but never before skimming the list. I love all you poor saps
running a timezone a few hours ahead of mine ;-) Saved me from a
disastrous upgrade on more than one occaision.
*turning red with shame* I use apt-listbugs. However I did the previous
upgrade a couple of weeks ago and while upgrading this time I missed
that bug in the list - at least I did not notice it. It's a home PC so
it's just an inconvenience. I just wondered if it is a bug or my fault.
OK, I'll wait.
Thanks!
