Package: qiv
Version: 2.0-6
Followup-For: Bug #351816

Yes, this is a bug that needed fixing; but your workaround
introduces a significant regression, so would you mind mentioning 
it in a NEWS.Debian file?  That way, users with apt-listchanges
installed will get a chance to see a warning on upgrade to the
fixed version.   The README.Debian needs updating too.

(I say "significant" because it breaks the one thing I used qiv for:
on the multi-user machine here, the system.fvwmrc has a wallpaper
function running "qiv -ry /usr/local/share/tiles" at user login.
Astonishingly, no other utility in Debian, including the WM-specific
ones, shows any sign of being able to do this random-PNG root-tile
trick.  Looks like I'll have to resort to a trivial shellscript.)
