At the moment, the Fedora developers are busy fixing other issues and may not have time to work on this one. The best way to make sure your problem will get looked on is to report it to the authors of the program. Most upstream authors use a bug tracking system like bugzilla, and more people who know the code will be looking at the bug report there. The upstream bug tracking system to use is: http://sourceforge.net/tracker/?group_id=36127&atid=416301 You are requested to add the bugzilla link here for tracking purposes. Please make sure the bug isn't already in the upstream bug tracker before filing it. --- Additional comment from apevec on 2008-10-23 04:28:55 EDT --- http://sourceforge.net/tracker/index.php?func=detail&aid=2188750&group_id=36127&atid=416301
