[Pkg-tigervnc-devel] Bug present in stable, testing and unstable, but fixed in upstream 1.12 - shall I still report it?

[Ola Lundqvist]

Hi

Generally yes. You report bugs on affected versions. Then wheter it is
worth submitting a report is up to you. It needs to be rather important for
the release team to accept it being corrected in a stable release. We must
also be able to locate the patch because we are not allowed to release 1.12
in stable. Also the patch must notrisk regression problems.

I'm not so active myself anymore so I will not do the work myself. But I
can answer the question in general.
