Description: 
 xterm      - X terminal emulator
Closes: 401726 404111 405043 406502
Changes: 
 xterm (224-1) unstable; urgency=low
 .
   * New upstream release.
     + fix build for GNU/KFreeBSD (closes: #404111).
     + undo a comparison in handle_translated_exposure which did not work
       due  to  X server optimization. That caused the inner border to be
       repainted  with  unexpected  colors when handling a repaint, e.g.,
       after  switching to/from another workspace (closes: #401726).
     + allow  -cr option to override cursor color when -ah option is used
       (closes: #406502).
     + add  a  note  in  xterm's  manpage explaining that the -bw (or -w)
       option  is  only  used  by  the  window manager, if at all
       (closes: #405043).
   * Refresh patch 901_xterm_manpage.diff.
   * Change my email address in debian/control.
