Title:
  irssi freezes on particular input - upstream bugs

Status in irssi package in Ubuntu:
  Confirmed

Bug description:
  I've observed that irssi in Focal Fossa locks up randomly, requiring that 
  the process be killed. It seems very likely that it is (or is related to) 
  the following upstream bug report:

      https://github.com/irssi/irssi/issues/1180
      https://github.com/irssi/irssi/pull/1183

  Also noted here:

      https://irssi.org/NEWS/#v1-2-2

  I depend on IRC for work so I moved away from Ubuntu on my IRC client
  machine, which was unfortunate. I haven't been able to test the patches 
  noted. It'd be great if Ubuntu pulled in the correction in whatever is the 
  most reasonable way. I may get a chance to prepare and test a patched 
  version of irssi before long, in which case I'll share feedback.
