Comment 67 for bug 272316

Absolutely positive about my versioning. I did an 'apt-get source libgnomecanvas' which gets libgnomecanvas_2.20.1.1-1ubuntu3, and built it by hand, with and without that patch which is a part of this package. The ubuntu-compiled package that was installed by default in intrepid definitely has the above problem. Took me nearly a week to track down the source...

The -1ubuntu2 package attached to this bug has the problem I see too.

Andcor: 'apt-get source libgnomecanvas' will create the directory libgnomecanvas-2.20.1.1, in which you will find debian/patches/90_upstream_correctly_update.patch. Rename (to something that doesn't end in .patch) or remove this file, and do a dpkg-buildpackage to get a libgnomecanvas without this bug.
