Sounds like the dependency tree is broken. And, all this talk of patches is confusing, is bzr really that primitive? On Fri, Sep 16, 2011 at 10:32 PM, fabrizio zon...@gmail.com wrote: I do simply run make, I do not really understand how this is not a problem but if you think so, it is all

Simon and Fabrizio, you're both right! I see a major miscommunication taking place. Let me have a crack at fixing that! 1) Fabrizio is rightly concerned with intuitive operation of the software. 2) Simon and Jean-Pierre are rightly concerned with efficient low fatigue operation of the software.

The mac native variant doesn't have them anyway. Nor do any other mac apps. Apple, love or hate them, know UI design. Looking at acrobat on linux, it uses them, but only for some items, such as copy and paste but not cut or clear, and it gives the menus an unbalanced look. If all were there it
