The patch applied to Debian's 2.6.4 matches the fix in 2.6.8 as far as I know. The issue is that Eclipse can't easily determine whether it should shut off its workaround, so it wrongly considers Debian's 2.6.4 to be broken. The workaround conflicts and Eclipse breaks. So, the 2.6.4 in Debian stable is "fixed". but's no longer "GTK+ 2.6.4" as it claims to be. -Billy -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe". Trouble?
