severity 1041703 grave
thanks
Justification: Renders X unusable, renders fwupdmgr unusable
Probably also breaks xdg-desktop-portal file dialog when clicking on a
mount point from an USB connected external device. Maybe some other
crashes I experienced in the running Plasma session before reporting
after the update have been related to this.
Did not test whether it would break input in Wayland session.
Also at least "serious" is necessary to warn people who use apt-listbugs
about the bug. I'd not have had a broken system in case apt-listbugs
would have warned me. (I know it is called unstable for a reason). One
can argue whether "serious", "grave" or even "critical" would be most
appropriate, as the wording regarding the severity levels leaves some
room for interpretation, but I am convinced that important is not severe
enough.
AFAIK at least "serious" is necessary to prevent the package from
entering "testing".
I confirm that downgrading to libgudev-1.0-0 237-2 fixes the issue.
Best,
