gimp cage tool - fix in 16.04?

[Robert Klemme]

Hi,

I tried searching the mailing list archive to find out but there is
only few mentions of gimp so I am not sure whether I am asking in the
right forum. If I should rather ask someplace else please let me know.

The cage tool in 2.8.16-1ubuntu1.1 is broken. Details can be found here:
https://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=678085

If I am not mistaken 2.8.18 does not fix the issue. At least the
changelog at [1] does not indicate anything about a fix and target
milestone of the bug is 2.10. Do you see any chance that the fix for
this issue will be made available via patch in 16.04?

Kind regards

robert
