Bug Description

[Impact]
The value 'Total active time' returned by 'task info' continues to increase when a task have been done without being stopped.

[Development Fix]
The issue was fixed upstream. This fix has been backported to the 2.0.0 version and uploaded to quantal

[Stable Fix]
Since we're including essentially the same version of task in precise and quantal, the same patch can be included in quantal.

[Test Case]
$ task add Test
Created task 41.
$ task 1 start
Starting task 1 'Test'.
Started 1 task.
$ task 1 done
Completed task 41 'Test'.
Completed 1 task.
$ task 9c47cff1 info | grep "Total active time"
Total active time 0:00:19
$ task 9c47cff1 info | grep "Total active time"
Total active time 0:00:21

Upstream bug: http://taskwarrior.org/issues/987

[Regression Potential]
None expected. The patch merely adds to the test of an if condition, and is short enough to verify correctness by review. There are no changes involving pointers. So, regressions would be limited to behavioral changes for the info command.

This bug was fixed in the package task - 2.0.0.release-0ubuntu4

---------------
task (2.0.0.release-0ubuntu4) quantal; urgency=low

  * Add 103_total_active_time.patch: Don't continue accumulating total
    active time after an active task is completed.
    (LP: #992854)
  * Add 104_project_complete_verbosity.patch and 105_affected_verbosity.patch:
    Be quieter with feedback if rc.vebose=nothing is specified.
    (LP: #992876)
  * Add 106_chdir_back_after_edit.patch: Fix segfault in
    Context::dispatch() when running task shell. This is because the edit
    command was not restoring the current directory.

Hello Bryce, or anyone else affected,

Accepted task into precise-proposed. The package will build now and be available at http://launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/task/2.0.0.release-0ubuntu2.2 in a few hours, and then in the -proposed repository.

Please help us by testing this new package. See https://wiki.ubuntu.com/Testing/EnableProposed for documentation how to enable and use -proposed. Your feedback will aid us getting this update out to other Ubuntu users.

If this package fixes the bug for you, please change the bug tag from verification-needed to verification-done. If it does not, change the tag to verification-failed. In either case, details of your testing will help us make a better decision.

Further information regarding the verification process can be found at https://wiki.ubuntu.com/QATeam/PerformingSRUVerification . Thank you in advance!
