Tuxpaint window does not close

[David Hopkins]

An update on this.  There is a bug report
https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/tuxpaint/+bug/269082  concerning
the behavior of Tux related apps.  I believe this might be the issue.  I
have libsdl1.2debian installed. I do not have libsdl1.2debian-pulseaudio
installed.  I can install the pulseaudio but quite frankly I don't know what
will happen and more importantly how easy it is to recover if it is 'bad'.

There are also updated Tux packages available at Edubuntu Testing.

I'm willing to test these if there is a straightforward way to revert the
system. What is the risk if I install the libsdl1.2debian-pulseaudio and the
Tux packages?  Has someone else already done so?

Sincerely,
Dave Hopkins
