Changes:
- minor upstream update
- patches cleanup. One of them has been merged upstream, the others didn't applied anymore. However, they were mostly to prevent gpm from interfering with some terminal apps like vim and mc. They don't seem to be necessary anymore as vim and mc works correctly from the tests I did.
- closes FS#9949 : The /usr/lib/libgpm.so.1 symlink was present on the system but for unkonw reasons was no longer in the package. For this reason, forcing is necessary to install gpm 1.20.3. I don't know how to inform the users about this ( front page news? or just keep an eye on the forum/ML to answer user's concern)
Other than the need to force, this seems to be fine. Maybe a pre_upgrade message that it is ok to force it? /me shrugs I'll signoff on i686
