  Thanks Peter for sending the patch to Debian, I am currently working 
  on merging the Ubuntu changes into Debian, but I see that according to 
  the bug report on Launchpad, the problem cannot be reproduced by 
  Fabrice on Lucid, does that mean that the patch of Peter is not needed 
  or what ?
