Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable):
gypsy-0.8-6.fc17.x86_64

How reproducible:
always

Additional info:
0.9 is out. 0.9 fixes this problem, see http://sailer.fedorapeople.org/gypsy-0.9-1.fc18.src.rpm. 0.9 also fixes the security vulnerability that it no longer allows any user to open arbitrary files (it now has a config file and a list of allowed device names).
