Bug#702295: NMU'ing zenity with fixes cherry-picked from upstream for #702295?

[intrigeri]

Hi,

this was indeed fixed upstream with commit e5eb127e (that depends on
e5eb127e to apply cleanly). A rough debdiff is attached. Tested on top
of current sid's 3.12.1-1, works for me.

This bug is really harming the usability of zenity in many real-world
situations, as indicated by the fact it's been reported numerous times
against various distributions.

It's unlikely that Jessie gets these fixes for free through zenity
3.14 (right?), so I hereby propose that we cherry-pick these two
commits for Jessie. What do the maintainers think?

If you agree that's the way to go, then I'm happy to prepare and
upload a NMU (I'll find better names for the quilt patches, and will
add proper DEP-3 headers).

Of course, I would fully understand if you preferred to do it
yourself, to keep everything in the team's Vcs-Svn repo (I must say
I didn't dare looking at the SVN-based workflow; would it be a Git
workflow I'm familiar with, then you would find git-format-patch'es
attached).

(Context: I'm primarily doing this so that we at Tails can stop
patching zenity when we migrate to Jessie. Delta-- :)

Cheers, and thanks a *lot* for maintaining GNOME in Debian!
