Updating shortwave from 5.1.0-1 to 5.1.0-3 breaks the station browser
to add new radio streams.

System: Debian GNU/Linux forky/sid (forky) x86_64

Going back to 5.1.0-1 restores the functionality.
Nothing else changed.

Regards
Marc

Hello,

Attached is a debdiff fixing this.

Instead of creating a new patch for a Hickory 0.26 port, I should have checked upstream for a commit to cherry-pick instead; there is one, and it works better. My mistake.

I tested this in a Debian Forky/Sid VM with an LXQt environment. I was able to both confirm the regression, and the fact that the attached debdiff fixes it.

Let me know if further followups are needed. I'm also pretty sure I botched the patch header style, please feel free to correct that.

Best regards,
Simon Quigley
