Bug#850784: arduino: No HiDPI support in arudino 1.0.5

2017-01-10 Thread Scott Howard
Hello,
Arduino had some licensing issues that prevented it from being
upgraded in debian that were resolved last month. See
https://bugs.debian.org/cgi-bin/bugreport.cgi?bug=780706

it looks like it can go forward again!

Bug#850784: arduino: No HiDPI support in arudino 1.0.5

Package: arduino
Version: 2:1.0.5+dfsg2-4.1
Severity: normal

stretch delivers arduino 1.0.5, which is pretty old. This means 
that some of the new features are not available. Specifically, it 
doesn't work well with HiDPI displays (aka retina displays). In 
the latest version (1.8.1) there is a global preference setting 
that allows to scale the interface to e.g. 200%, which is a nice 
setting for my MacBookPro 13". Would it be possible to include in 
stretch a more up to date version, including this feature?
