Needs test case, etc from https://wiki.ubuntu.com/StableReleaseUpdates#SRU_Bug_Template before it's accepted for testing.

Hello Sebastien, or anyone else affected,

Accepted remmina into precise-proposed. The package will build now and be available at http://launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/remmina/1.0.0-1ubuntu6.2 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.

This is not fixed in Quantal either so I am setting that task back to Triaged.

When will it be accepted in proposal? This bug is really annoying, and we have a lot of features in remmina since the old 1.0.0-1ubuntu6.1 version in precise.

The bug is fixed in raring and newer version of you, what do you mean by "accepted in proposal"?

I mean accepted in precise-proposed, since it's triaged in precise.

Oh, somebody needs to do a precise stable update there... I can review/sponsor it if you want to work on that

I'm not a GTK developer, but I can try to help. Could you point some docs teaching me how to branch and request pull for ubuntu packages?

This bug was fixed in the package remmina - 1.0.0-4ubuntu3

---------------
remmina (1.0.0-4ubuntu3) saucy; urgency=low

  * debian/patches/keywords.patch: update remmina.desktop as well,
    the file is not updated during the build (lp: #1024480)

Thanks, I found a free slot in my schedule to fix the patch so I just did it. But for reference, if you feel like helping on some other fix: https://wiki.ubuntu.com/ContributeToUbuntu has pointers to the documentation you might need

Thank you, Sebastien.

When will we have this on precise?

when somebody from the SRU team review it in the queue and accept it as an update

I did the following:

    brunojcm@brunojcm-desktop:~$ sudo apt-get install remmina/precise-proposed remmina-common/precise-proposed remmina-plugin-rdp/precise-proposed remmina-plugin-vnc/precise-proposed

After that, I tried to use the words vnc and rdp (both in lower and upper case) and Remmina appeared as the first option.

Thank you very much for backporting it to precise, I hope to see this update in precise-updates soon!
