[Bug 537275] Re: Regression: Gimp has no progressbar

[Akkana Peck]

Here's a slightly updated version of Bhaskar Kandiyal's debdiff
(changing the version number and mentioning the upstream commit) for use
in an SRU request.

** Attachment added: "Updated debdiff (different version number)"
   http://launchpadlibrarian.net/45887889/gimp_2.6.8-2ubuntu1.1.debdiff

** Description changed:

+ -- Lucid SRU report follows --
+ 
+ Impact: A common and visible part of GIMP's UI has disappeared due to
+ Lucid's switch to gtk 2.19. This will cause confusion for new GIMP users
+ (the UI won't match tutorials) as well as existing users.
+ 
+ The bug has been fixed upstream, with new code for the gtk 2.19 case.
+ 
+ Patch:
+ http://launchpadlibrarian.net/45887889/gimp_2.6.8-2ubuntu1.1.debdiff
+ 
+ Regression potential: should be low risk, since the code has been in the
+ gimp trunk for a few weeks, and the alternative is the current broken
+ status bar.
+ 
+ ====================
  Binary package hint: gimp
  
  Gimp has lost his Progressbar within the Statusfield that showed the
  progress of filters or saving files. This is extremly nasty, the reasons
  are obvious.
