---------------
gnome-settings-daemon (3.4.2-0ubuntu0.2) precise-proposed; urgency=low
* Upload to precise-proposed
[ Chris Coulson ]
* debian/patches/10_smaller_syndaemon_timeout.patch: Update to increase
the size of the stack allocated array for the extra argument passed to
syndaemon. This fixes a crash in the PLT due to a corrupt %ebx register
(which holds the GOT base address on i386), which was caused in an earlier
function by writing zero in to the location on the stack where the value of
%ebx is saved. Thanks to Sebastien Bacher for spotting the buggy patch!
(fixes LP: #1007588)
[ Hsin-Yi, Chen (hychen) ]
* debian/patches/git_xrandr_explicitly_set_clone_state.patch:
- "xrandr; explicitly set clone state variable when generating monitor
configs" (LP: #1014533)

Bug description:
[Impact]
One of the patch we ship is obviously buggy and lead to stack
corruption issues which turned to segfault on quantal, it could lead
to other weird bugs on precise
[Test Case]
None, the issue is an obvious code error which leads to invalid
writes, that can turn to random effect depending of what got
overwriten. Just test that the update works correctly.
[Regression Potential]
None, the patch is just increase by 1 the size of a table which was 1
element too short
