** Summary changed:

- feh crashes on right-click
+ [SRU] feh crashes on right-click

** Description changed:

+ [ Impact ]
+ 
+ "feh" will crash with a coredump if any user tries to open the context
+ menu by right-clicking on the displayed image.
+ 
+ [ Test Plan ]
+ 
+ Install feh
+ open any image with feh, the command is "feh <image filename>"
+ right click on the displayed image.
+ 
+ If the package is not fixed it will result in a coredump.
+ With the fixed package the context menu will be displayed.
+ 
+ To make sure the context menu is working as expected:
+ 1. Goto "image info" in the context manu, and it will show the info in a 
submenu
+ 2. Goto "File" -> "Change View" and then choose any of the options displayed 
to rotate or flip the image and the image should behave accordingly.
+ 
+ [ Where problems could occur ]
+ 
+ The upstream patch has changed how it draws the context menu. Instead of 
using a polygon, its now using lines to draw the menu.
+ I can imagine that for some users this might cause the menu to be not 
properly aligned or not displayed correctly at the correct position.
+ But that might still be better than "feh" crashing while trying to display 
the menu.
+ 
+ [ Other Info ]
+ 
+ This has been fixed upstream and in Debian (3.10.2-1) and as a result
+ Oracular has the fixed package.
+ 
+ 
+ [ Original Bug Description ]
+ 
  When I right-click on the opened window with the picture to get access to the 
context menu, the window closes with an error message:
  *** buffer overflow detected ***: terminated
