Comment 25 for bug 1705297

Hi,

thank you for dealing with this matter.
But before performing this I would like to know why this may be necessary
because I regularly do "dist-upgrade"s, and -- on the other hand --
I am not sure that I could report on results (what results?)
since this bug happens only rarely (only once during the last few weeks,
If I remember it correctly) and is not predictable.

Best regards, Peter
