Hi,

I've uploaded the fix to this issue.

I also added the following collab-maint repository:
http://anonscm.debian.org/gitweb/?p=collab-maint/vlogger.git;a=summary

If you use vlogger this heavily, I urge you to create a vlogger fork on
github or somewhere and make your fixes there.  That way I won't be in
the hotspot for reviewing and adding patches.  Once you reached a
version that you think should be released into debian, tag it as 1.4 (or
something) and open a bug report on vlogger asking me to upgrade to that
version.

It's a lot easier to collaborate in git and apply patches quickly in a
github repo than sending upstream patches to the BTS.

This is also the only way to have these fixes move to Fedora, BSDs, etc.

Sorry, but I currently can't volunteer to maintain vlogger and to
continuously review major new patches and features.  Either outside or
inside Debian.

Thanks,
Gergely
