Bug#939768: Solved

[Charlie Hagedorn]

Great -- given that this bug is at least a week old, several people have
found fixes, and a fix hasn't yet made it into the 'testing' updates, what
is necessary to get a fix pushed to the world?

I can apt-pin like many of the correspondents in this report, and many
other reports for the same problem, have, but this shouldn't be requisite
knowledge for running testing.

Is there a mandatory phase-delay on a patch? Is reverting the change or
compiling against the older library harder than it might sound? How can
someone with only Debian-bug-reporter levels of Debian-org-fu help?

Thanks!

Charlie

However creating or opening an image crashes gimp.  Following the
