This has been fixed in upstream version 2.2.4, and so to fix this in Ubuntu we should simply need to update the package to this latest release.

I have updated the package. Im quite new at this, but you can test my work here: https://launchpad.net/~chogydan/+archive/ppa

I worked off of the karmic package, so it is only for karmic. (and I haven't tested it, since I'm not running karmic. Sorry!)

I built the package in pbuilder for jaunty, and it worked fine. I don't know how to get it to show up in the ppa for jaunty.
