@thedgofficial : this is very old bug report from late year 2013. I think its better to report new one with full data, and reference this bur report number in your report.

[Sebastien Bacher (seb128)]

upstream consider that one fixed and there was no new activity in years, closing please open a new bug if you still get an issue in the current serie
