Dear Maintainer,
*** Reporter, please consider answering these questions, where appropriate ***
* What led up to the situation?
Tried to start fs-uae-launcher, the GUI looks "corrupted" like below...
+------------------------+
|[start] [][][] |
| |
|+---------+ |
|[cfgwindow] |
|| | |
|+---------+ |
+------------------------+
A start button, a config windows and some widgets overlapping [][][].
* What exactly did you do (or not do) that was effective (or
ineffective)?
I tried to resize the window and update all packages.
* What was the outcome of this action?
The GUI is still corrupted... No change.
* What outcome did you expect instead?
Nothing really, was hoping it would "fix" itself by a resize, but it did not.

Control: severity -1 normal fs-uae-launcher is currently not part of Debian unstable or testing due to insufficient clarification of the copyright of various files shipped with the source code, see [1]. However, the package is part of the stable distribution and works fine there, just tested it on a freshly installed system. Thus, you are using the stable package on Debian testing which may result the bug you described. But since the package isn't part of testing/unstable anyway, I don't really consider this to be a valid bug report. Therefore downgrading the severity to normal. Adrian

Hello I revisited https://github.com/FrodeSolheim/fs-uae-launcher/issues/143 and I noticed user glaubitz is open to make the changes needed to have this package back in Debian. Dear maintainer, please explain to GitHub / glaubitz what is needed to have fs-uae-launcher back in Debian. Thank you
That user "glaubitz" is me ;-). Someone actually sent me a mail in private and offered to help sorting out with the packaging issues but I haven't heard back from him. Adrian
What a plot twist! :-) Do you think there is any possibility to have fs-uae-launcher back in Debian anytime soon? Configuring FS-UAE by hand is tedious. we really need fs-uae-launcher back in Debian Thank you
If someone bothers fixing those copyright issues, yes. So is fixing the copyright issues. It's a lot of work and it seems no one can be bothered to do that. Adrian
