OTOH this is somewhat ok as the change is in Debian and Ubuntu for more than three releases now and nothing around it seems to have totally broken. Never the less the biggest risk I see is something unexpected in one of the other libslang2 users. [Other Info] * n/a --- When running byobu with the screen backend byobu-config segfaults when trying to open it by pressing F9. Steps to reproduce. 1. Configure byobu to use screen for the backend 2. Press F9 to open the configuration menu 3. The console flashes then returns to your shell window. Running byobu-config manually within a byobu screen session shows it's segfaulting. It does not crash running it outside of screen. byobu: Installed: 5.101-0ubuntu1~wily Candidate: 5.101-0ubuntu1~wily Version table: *** 5.101-0ubuntu1~wily 0 500 http://ppa.launchpad.net/byobu/ppa/ubuntu/ wily/main amd64 Packages 100 /var/lib/dpkg/status 5.97-0ubuntu1 0 500 http://mirror.us.leaseweb.net/ubuntu/ wily/main amd64 Packages To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/byobu/+bug/1537528/+subscriptions -- Mailing list: https://launchpad.net/~touch-packages Post to : [email protected] Unsubscribe : https://launchpad.net/~touch-packages More help : https://help.launchpad.net/ListHelp
