---------------
libxi (2:1.4.1-1ubuntu3) oneiric; urgency=low

  * Add 100_len_raw_events.patch: Cherrypick upstream patch to correct the
    use of the calculated structure length for memory allocations. Fixes
    issue where incorrect memory size was allocated, leading to valuator
    data overwriting memory, resulting in an error "Invalid write of size
    1" and heap corruption causing applications to crash when they use Raw
    Events. (LP: #770522)
