Fool? Well, judge for yourself :) Don't care? No, that's not fair. Please look at the number of bugreports we have and remember that Rene & I are doing this in our spare time. We simply don't have time to work on all bugs at once. I would *love* to receive some more help from people who have time to help out (thanks BTW to Jim, Martin K and the other people who occasionally help out). Until we have more help, we cannot work on bugs faster than we are. That means that bugs with lower severity have to wait until they get to the top of the list, and #225719 had not reached the top of the list yet. Yesterday I spent over 3 hours working on the critical file deletion bug and the long standing type 1 fonts bug that has prevented us from releasing the Woody backport of 1.1.0/1. Some bugs need even more time than that. We have 117 outstanding bugs and several new bugs are reported each week. Do the math and you'll see where the problem arises, given that I can spend a maximum of about 5 hours per week working on the packaging and bugs in my spare time. > I'm closing this as it's fixed now. Thank you. Thanks for taking the time to report the bug, and for closing it, all help is appreciated. Chris
