(I trust you have or will upload the new package to precise-proposed,
let me know if not)

** Description changed:

+ =============================================================
+ Impact: vdeterm failure corrupts terminal
+ Development fix: restore terminal on failure
+ Stable fix: same as development fix
+ Test case: run 'vdeterm', then try 'ls'.  Terminal should act as normal when 
vde has been patched.
+ Regression potential: this fix has been applied since quantal to the same 
version, so there should be no risk of regression
+ =============================================================
+ 
  When vdeterm fails at start (such as happens when specifying the wrong
  vde socket), then it does not restore the terminal.
  
  The terminal is thus left in noecho mode.
  
  # lsb_release -rd
  Description:    Ubuntu 10.04.2 LTS
  Release:        10.04
  
  # apt-cache policy vde2
  vde2:
-   Installed: 2.2.3-3
-   Candidate: 2.2.3-3
-   Version table:
-  *** 2.2.3-3 0
-         500 http://fr.archive.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/ lucid/universe Packages
-         100 /var/lib/dpkg/status

  What do I expect:
  on error, vdeterm should restore the terminal into the state where it found 
it in
  
  What happens instead:
  the terminal is left with noecho (... and possibly other settings wrong as 
well...)
