Comment 3 for bug 485225

I confirm both that the bug exists, and that the proposed fix solves this bug. It's been almost 2 years since the developer has updated the source, (2008-06-12) and this bug was originally reported as http://sourceforge.net/tracker/?func=detail&aid=2121813&group_id=202130&atid=980349 (2008-09-21). Due to it being unlikely that the original developer is going to respond, can we patch inside of ubuntu and hope that someone is able to pick it up upstream?
