When is 0.5.2 due to hit the repositories? I've cobbled together my own .rpm packages using the latest source from git I think they have some minor problems bad %files section but I think they are close enough for now and I think they will automatically be updated when 0.5.2 hits the repositories. But I'm not 100% sure I haven't made some mistakes that are bigger than I realize, since I have not really built any rpms for years. I'll be happy when my funky rpms are replaced. <div>On 7/30/07, Michael DeHaan <<a href="mailto:mdehaan@redhat.com">mdehaan@redhat.com </a>> wrote:<blockquote class="gmail_quote" style="border-left: 1px solid rgb(204, 204, 204); margin: 0pt 0pt 0pt 0.8ex; padding-left: 1ex;">Adam Rosenwald wrote: > Nice!!!
