I would like to fix a bug in geeqie in bullseye where selecting several
items in a file-list and then trying to deselect one item using
Ctrl+click doesn't work as it should.

Unfortunately this isn't reported in the Debian BTS, but the bug I
reacted to is upstream [1], and the original bug [2] also showing a
video of the problem. (I asked the reporter to report it in Debian, but
he/she hasn't done that yet).

The fix is cherry-picked from upstream, and also available in versions
from 1.7 and forward, already packaged and tested in unstable. I have
tested the cherry-picked fix in stable and it works.

[ Risks ]
This is a small change in leaf package, should be very low risk.

[ Checklist ]
  [X] *all* changes are documented in the d/changelog
  [X] I reviewed all changes and I approve them
  [X] attach debdiff against the package in (old)stable
  [X] the issue is verified as fixed in unstable
