I filed #741072 with the patch on 2014-03-08, which is close to 3 months ago now. The bug saw no response until I raised the severity last week - perhaps if it had been acted upon sooner, these problems would have been found sooner, and quite likely would have already been fixed. Oddly, I definitely tested gnuplot before sending in the patch, though I can reproduce this problem now. Nothing else relevant seems to have changed in gnuplot or wxwidgets3.0 since though. I wonder if I messed up and wasn't testing the build I thought I was - sorry if that's the case. I'm just rebuilding gnuplot with debug symbols to see if that shows where this is coming from. > I would then propose the following.

The transition tracker shows 44% complete for wxwidgets3.0, and there are patches in the BTS for another 12 packages: https://release.debian.org/transitions/ https://bugs.debian.org/cgi-bin/pkgreport.cgi?tag=wx3.0;users=freewx-ma...@lists.alioth.debian.org There is also still wxpython to deal with (which doesn't show up in the tracker, I guess because it's part of the wxwidgets2.8 source package), but there's still 5 months until the freeze. > Otherwise, wxt will be disabled in Debian builds as a terminal > for gnuplot. That seems a reasonable plan if we can't address this in time. Cheers, Olly -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to debian-bugs-dist-requ...@lists.debian.org with a subject of "unsubscribe". Trouble?
