Bug#789372: polari: silently fails to add new connections

[Matteo F. Vescovi]

Package: polari
Version: 3.16.1-1
Severity: serious
Tags: upstream

Dear Maintainer,

with this new version, the program is unable to add new connections,
failing with the following message in a terminal:

| (org.gnome.Polari:9510): Gjs-WARNING **: JS ERROR: TypeError:
| this._serverEntry is undefined

| @/usr/bin/polari:5

Upgrading the gjs package to the version in experimental (as you can see
in my package list installed below) fixed the issue.

Marking severity to serious to prevent the package to migrate, before
the problem is fixed (mainly, upstream).

Cheers.
