 mgapdesk has been removed from testing and unstable nowadays.
 Reassigning bugs to it would not make sense.

Ah, okay.

 I checked the upstream X code. They still generate and read localized
 numbers, and the code has been designed to do so. 

Yes, I think that's right, see my analysis at [1]. 

 So I don't think it
 will change soon, especially if we ask them because we want to fix a
 dead package :)
 
 So I am closing this bug.

Fine!  Thanks for taking care. 

Nikolaus

Hi Brice, 

thanks for taking care about some ancient bugs.

 been reassigned to mgapdesk. Does it mean that it has already been
 fixed? 

I guess it hasn't been fixed so far.  But I've just reported a bug, I've
little insight in X11 development. 

 Or that you don't care anymore? 

Hm, not much.  I was just a user of mgapdesk, and I've contributed my
analysis, which of course may be wrong.  IMO it is now in the hands of
the respective package maintainers to care about their packages.  

 Or that nobody reassigned it? 

Yes.  See above.  The maintainers should decide about reassigning the
bug once again. 

 Do you still have the hardware to try to reproduce the problem on
 current Xorg/Etch?

Yes, I am still running the same hardware.  And no, I'm using Sarge
exclusively for now, although I have an upgrade test bed prepared. 
So, if you really want, I might try to reproduce it, but that would
need some effort from my side. 

HAND, 
Nikolaus
