Hi Release Team, The following upstream update to gcompris has been suggested, and after checking it seems to be to be good material, with extremely limited-scope code-level bugfixes (which could be filtered-out if we really want that, although I'd think it would be better to have them in as well).
I'm thus requesting pre-approval for a 14.12 package.

Given the freeze, I would understand if the hangman and tuxpaint changes would not be accepted - but then, it'd be a bit of work to just bring eveything-but-those in 14.07. If the other updates are accepted but not those, I would rather revert those 2 changes from 14.12 (making it a 14.12~something).
