Package: release.debian.org
Severity: normal

X-Debbugs-Cc: quakespasm at packages.debian.org
Control: affects -1 + src:quakespasm
Please unblock package quakespasm
[ Reason ]
Fix #1032276
[ Impact ]
If not fixed, when the quake-server package is installed and quakespasm is
the selected alternative for quake-engine-server, the quake-server systemd
service spams the system log with rapid "Console input too long" messages.
[ Tests ]
Manual test: can configure /etc/alternatives/quake-engine-server =
/usr/games/quakespasm, systemctl restart quake-server.service, and connect
a client with `quake --engine=quakespasm '+connect 127.0.0.1'`. With the
version in bookworm, "Console input too long" messages appear until the
server is stopped. With the proposed version, those messages do not appear.
[ Risks ]
Low risk: almost a leaf package (one of multiple options for contrib
packages quake and quake-server), the patch is simple, and its small user
base is indicated by the fact that it has taken this long for anyone to
notice that the bug existed.
[ Checklist ]
[x] all changes are documented in the d/changelog
[x] I reviewed all changes and I approve them
[x] attach debdiff against the package in testing
