I think since upstream has added ubuntu ram alignment patch we can sync it through...

[Bhavani Shankar (bhavi)]

Can you please test build the debian source?

[Timothy Redaelli (timothy-redaelli)]

Yes, it works

[Daniel Holbach (dholbach)]

Bhavani: where did Upstream add the Ubuntu ram alignment patch? Can you point me to it?

[Bhavani Shankar (bhavi)]

Fix display of gigabyte-sized values
  (thanks to Andika Triwidada)

I think the above change implies the same as ubuntu one.. Sorry if I am wrong ....

Regards

@dholbach: The upstream bug is here: http://sourceforge.net/tracker/index.php?func=detail&aid=2577889&group_id=108839&atid=651633
Now, the problem is that the patch that was applied upstream isn't the same that was applied by us.
Citation from From bug 327664:
"on a second thought, field width 4 "%4.1fG" is more proper than my previous one "%3.1fG", so new patch"
but the patch that was send, and has been applied by upstream developer uses "%3.1fG" and not "%4.1fG"
Unfortunately neither do I have a system with enough ram to test if fix is working nor do I have time to investigate it further in following days :/

[Bhavani Shankar (bhavi)]
