Since upstream doesn't seem to want to commit the fix could the ubuntu package add this as a patch? I've rebuilt the package with the patch from the upstream bug (attached) and it seems to work fine as verified by other users in the upstream bug.
I couldn't get dpkg-source to actually apply it automatically with the following error: dpkg-source: warning: unexpected end of diff 'gedit-3.28.1/debian/patches/09_position_fix.patch' So I patched it manually. But I'm sure that's just a simple issue someone with actual knowledge of dpkg packaging will fix easily. ** Patch added: "Patch from the upstream bug" https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/gedit/+bug/1573728/+attachment/5173064/+files/09_position_fix.patch -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1573728 Title: Files opened with gedit on command line no longer open within the existing gedit session To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/gedit/+bug/1573728/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list [email protected] https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
