Thanks, Bálint, for looking into the issue. There was a small hope that there will be a Christmas version of version 2.6.20 for those who prefer GTK to QT. I am not sure how difficult is to prepare Debian source package for self-compilation for version 2.6.20 based on 2.6.8, probably I would be able to do it myself. Thanks!
