[Python-modules-team] Bug#779023: python-pygame: VIDEORESIZE odd behaviour

[Elia Argentieri]

Package: python-pygame
Version: 1.9.1release+dfsg-10+b1
Severity: normal
Tags: upstream

I took this example [1] from the pygame wiki, but when I try to resize the
window, it begins to change its size randomly. Sometimes it becomes bigger,
sometimes smaller. It is totally out of control. I tried both python-pygame
from testing and python3-pygame from experimental.
A friend of mine reports that on windows it works as intended, so it might be a
Debian issue?
