Audacious plays the last playlist instead of the double-clicked file

[Aristotelis Mikropoulos]

Binary package hint: audacious

When I double click on a music file (for example and MP3 file), Audacious does not play that file, but it starts playing the last playlist I have given it. This bug started to occur after I upgraded from 8.04 to 8.10. The patch that fixes that bug, is this: http://viewcvs.gentoo.org/viewcvs.py/gentoo-x86/media-sound/audacious/files/1.5.1-commandline-options.patch?rev=1.1&view=markup (the Audacious developers gave it to me).

Ubuntu 8.10 Intrepid Ibex
Audacious 1.5.1

As I am the submitter of the debdiff it's clear that I tested it but as a special testcase I installed the intrepid version (which has this issue) and updated then with intrepid-proposed. Working like a charm now :)

When will this package be released to end-users? I looked at that patch and it meant nothing to me. I have no idea what to do with it.

And to answer your question when it hits intrepid-updates (officially):
If nothing serious happens 1 week after it was uploaded to intrepid-proposed what would be on monday ;)
