I'm waiting on Arch to upgrade glib. It's still in testing ATM. Once it comes down, I'll append the pkgbuild to include the new patch. I believe any packagers for other distro's will only have to patch against glib if they are currently shipping that version. If Ubuntu sticks with 2.14, then no need to worry, for them. _______________________________________________ Pan-users mailing list Pan-users@nongnu.org http://lists.nongnu.org/mailman/listinfo/pan-users
