Inverted scroll-wheel

Could this be related to this bug?

Looks quite similar.

Same problem on Ubuntu Dapper 6.06 RC just installed and updated.

Version of ddd: 1:3.3.11-1
Ubuntu Version: Dapper Drake 6.06 LTS RC
Kernel Version: 2.6.15-23-386

Same problem on Ubuntu Edge 6.10
ddd-3.3.11-1

This also applies to Debian's ddd package.

Confirmed: Feisty ddd 3.3.11-1 on amd64.

I'd like to note that this problem does *not* exist on Fedora and Gentoo.

I see that this bug has been reported over an year ago.

See
http://bugs.debian.org/cgi-bin/bugreport.cgi?bug=344154
and
http://bugs.debian.org/cgi-bin/bugreport.cgi?bug=396199

Is someone going to test the patch for lesstif2 and eventually release a bugfix package?

I can confirm that the patch at http://bugs.debian.org/cgi-bin/bugreport.cgi?bug=396199 works for me.

Confirmed in gutsy

Confirmed in hardy

Also experiencing this in Hardy.

It may be worth noting that the graphical data window is not affected; the scroll wheel works as expected for this window. It appears that the bug only applies to the text windows, which are presumably handled directly by LessTif.

Fix for Intrepid:

  * debian/patches:
   - Add 031_fix_inverted_scrollwheel.diff by Kacper Wysocki
     from #396199 in Debian BTS. (LP: #37664)
  * debian/control:
   - Adhere to DebianMaintainerField spec.
   - Bump Standards Version to 3.8.0
   - Add Homepage field.
  * Create debian/watch file

As some sponsors have recently been telling me to not fix trivial packaging issues originating from Debian in my uploads, here is a minimal debdiff, only adding the patch and not fixing packaging issues (Standards Version, watch file, or homepage field). Take your pick sponsors...

Uploaded, thank you for your contribution.

I took the smaller patch, as I prefer to not change things
like standards version in Ubuntu. It would be great to forward
changes such as the watch file and the Homepage to Debian
so that they are not lost.

I also hunted down the upstream bug and dropped a link in
the changelog, the bug, and the Debian bug.

Thanks,

James
