Yes, all of them.

The fonts are unreadable so debian must have pulled some depends. After removing the one from test then installing the one from main, sweethome3d works fine. Then after upgrading to the one from test, the fonts are fixed but sweethome3d has issues. I have something to chase now. - mike
And now we know it's not just me! I was really beginning to wonder.

In the interim, I have found that I can put the 3D view on one monitor and the work screens on another and have a decent work-around - not great, but it does work when run on bare metal (not at all in VirtualBox).

Since it's OK on my laptop but not so good on my desktop, it seems to be related to the video driver. Maybe the next release will be better.

Do you see any improvements where you have it working that make it worth keeping in the repos?

If not we can pull it and wait for a new release...

No, I do not see any reason to keep it in the repos, at least not for me.

So, my vote would be to remove it until at least the next revision.

srq2625,
We just put sweethome3d_6.3+dfsg in MX-17 test and I have installed and run it in MX-17 VMs and it seems to play well. Would you mind giving it a try?
Make sure you fully update your system first though. I believe one or more newer packages outside the scope of sweethome3d may have contributed to the fix as well.
