--------------------------------------------------^^^^^^

*before*, as in 2.6.18 and lower, as in this was fixed last week.  Please do me

myself....

Thanks.

Comment 6 Lubomir Kundrak 2008-03-18 20:38:09 UTC 
php-pear-PhpDocumentor and gallery2 should not embed a copy of smarty.
Is there a possibility to make it use code from the php-Smarty package?
