[Bug 343347] Re: python-urwid segfaults on invalid keypress data

[Ian Ward]

** Description changed:

  Binary package hint: python-urwid
  
  Sending invalid data to a widget keypress method (not checking for mouse
  event for example) causes python-urwid to segfault. I expected a python
  error that can be handled gracefully.
  
  python-urwid is version 0.9.8.3-1ubuntu1 in jaunty.
  Fix is in upstream version 0.9.8.4-1 (debian unstable)
  A number of other minor problems have been fixed in the same release.
+ 
+ This is the changelog for this micro-release:
+     * Fixed incompatibilities with Python 2.6 (by Friedrich Weber) 
+     * Fixed a SimpleListWalker? with emptied list bug (found by Walter Mundt) 
+     * Fixed a curses_display stop()/start() bug (found by Christian Scharkus) 
+     * Fixed an is_wide_character() segfault on bad input data bug (by Andrew Psaltis) 
+     * Fixed a CanvasCache? with render() used in both a widget and its superclass bug (found by Andrew Psaltis) 
+     * Fixed a ListBox?.ends_visible() on empty list bug (found by Marc Hartstein) 
+     * Fixed a tutorial example bug (found by Kurtis D. Rader) 
+     * Fixed an Overlay.keypress() bug (found by Andreas Klöckner) 
+     * Fixed setuptools configuration (by Andreas Klöckner)
