Bug#775916: unblock (pre-approval): caja/1.8.2-2

[Mike Gabriel]

Package: release.debian.org
Severity: normal
User: release.debian.org at packages.debian.org
Usertags: unblock

Please consider unblocking of planned upload of package caja

+  * debian/patches:

-> Upstream helped to trace down to more issues observed with Caja in Debian jessie.

+    + Add 0001_fix-desktop-icon-size.patch. Make adjusting the default
+      folder and desktop icon size predictable. (Closes: #775525).

-> Please read the initial post of #775525. I could 100% confirm the
issue and the provided patch in this upload fixes the issue. Without this
patch it is not possible to sensibly adjusting desktop icon size (and
default icon size of new folders)

+    + Add 0002_dont-start-desktop-outside-of-MATE-sessions.patch. Stop
+      launching a MATE desktop window when one opens Caja outside a MATE
+      desktop session. (Closes: #771587).

-> Important to people (like me) that want to use Caja outside a MATE
desktop. Until 1.8.2-1 (and latest upstream code before today), Caja
would always attempt bringing up a MATE desktop, even if running outside
of a MATE session (which is very annoying when using i3, awesome, etc.).
Caja has been simply unusable for people running it in non-MATE sessions,
so far.

light+love,
Mike
