Current upstream version is 2.8.10. Please, either bump it and see if it fixed this bug, or remove this package.

2.8.2.92 is the only version ported for modular X, and it can't go stable when it crashes.

[Comment 3 Jakub Moc (RETIRED) 2006-12-16 18:24:32 UTC]

Ping!

[Comment 4 Jakub Moc (RETIRED) 2006-12-16 18:51:15 UTC]

@x86 - please drop the stable keyword from this thing, noone cares for almost a year.

[Comment 5 Christian Faulhammer (RETIRED) 2006-12-18 00:24:14 UTC]

masked all versions below 2.8.2.92 for default-linux/x86/

[Comment 6 Christian Faulhammer (RETIRED) 2006-12-18 00:33:53 UTC]

And on hardened/x86 of course, too.
