Package: libgpmg1
Version: 1.20.3~pre3-1
Severity: important

        Hi,

 When switching to insert mode in vim in a screen session I now get:
*** debug [lib/liblow.c(212)]:
                              VC: 0

 (the chars appear with the above offset; the message starts from the
 cursor position)

 This started happening with libgpmg1 1.20.3~pre3-1 and renders vim
 unusable for me.  When exiting vim I see:
*** debug [lib/liblow.c(212)]:
                              VC: 0
                                   *** info [lib/liblow.c(337)]:
                                                                /dev/gpmctl: No such file or directory
                                   *** info [lib/liblow.c(344)]:
                                                                /dev/gpmctl: No such file or directory
                                   *** err [lib/liblow.c(388)]:
                                                               Oh, oh, it's an error! possibly I die! 


 This happens with "set mouse=a" in my .vimrc, commenting this setting
 out makes the warning fo away.

   Bye,
