[Pkg-gpm-devel] Bug#219974: gpm still broken

[C. Scott Ananian]

Package: gpm
Version: 1.19.6-19
Followup-For: Bug #219974

I'm running a 2.6 kernel with a PS/2 mouse and gpm is still broken.  Other
filed bugs suggest the solution is to upgrade to the 1.20 upstream release.
Comments by other on those filed bugs suggest that the maintainer of this
package has abandoned it.
