Subject: rEFInd mouse bug

Package: refind

When you uncomment the line enable-mouse in rEFInd, the mouse cursor
will show but when you move it, it will disappear. This bug was fixed
by compiling a patched refind_x64.efi file by cloning this git
repository "git clone -b fix-mouse-bug
https://git.code.sf.net/u/ignapk/refind", then installing gnu-efi,
then going into the folder, then running make gnuefi, then going into
the refind folder, then replace the patched refind_x64.efi with the
bugged one. This was tested on my HP laptop, and has worked nicely.

I am using Debian GNU/Linux 11.1, kernel 5.19.0-12.1-liquorix-amd64,
and libc6 2.31-13.

Aneesh,

Thanks for this.

> Package: refind

However, src:refind is not forked in Devuan and we use Debian's packages
directly without recompilation. Please report this issue directly to Debian's
BTS to be addressed.

Thanks

Mark

This appears to be fixed upstream and sould appear once the Debian package is
updated.
