(Get the code!)
The SRU was the simple application of an upstream patch from this upstream bug report
https:/
I do not know anything of the internals of libspectre and even do not have upload rights for it, as it does not belong to printing. It is used by evince to generate certain output data formats. I only have done the debdiff for that SRU because no one else did it. I am not maintaining libspectre in Ubuntu.
So my suggestion is to simply remove the patch if the solution of the current problem is urgent and no better patch from upstream is available. But take into account that the problem of the original SRU will reappear. Let this be a new SRU. Wait for a better upstream fix if it is not so urgent.
In general make upstream aware of both problems and that fix of the first problem caused the second and what is needed is a fix to solve both problems. Do another SRU if the final fix is available.
