Bug Description

Hello:

This package got stuck in Debian NEW for about ~7 months and when it landed in unstable it was automatically merged into Wily. Shortly after the gcc-5 transition happened and the package builds fine but it will segfault as soon as launched with the new libstdc++ ABI.

The package works once again with the latest version I uploaded to sid. If this package is going to ship with Wily then it should be at least 1.3.1-1094-gf062b0f+dfsg-1 from sid since the version currently in Ubuntu segfaults instantly upon launch. If it's too late for syncing then it should probably removed from this cycle and included in the next Ubuntu release. The package is NEW and a leaf so removal should not be an issue.

Thanks for reporting.

I am not sure but this might fall in under bugfix-only (https://wiki.ubuntu.com/FreezeExceptionProcess#FeatureFreeze_for_bugfix-only_updates) in which case it should be possible to sync the newer package. I haven't really looked at the changes involved, but I've subscribed ~ubuntu-release to take a look at it.

(If we end up needing to remove the package, ubuntu-archive is the team to subscribe, though let's first see whether we can get a newer version in)
