Is it just for me > that the dialogs look awful (everything the same color white, be it > button, text-edit or background) compared to what they looked before (as > recorded in the screen shots on our website)? my take on this is that we can push the change as long as people can still overwrite it in .xinit. so it should be somewhere in the code before we load the user setting. I can't really see any harm if we do it this way. > That reminds me: I still seem to have v 0.18 vs 0.17 problems, after I run > autogen.sh. hmm, I wonder what the best way is to resolve this...My take would be to leave the 0.18 in. I think all newer distributions have 0.18 now (the gettext version was released almost 2 years ago) and older ones could patch it during the package building... this would leave out people who want to compile it themselves and are on older distributions and those should be able to install gettext 0.18 by hand... My solution therefore would be to pump the configure requirement up to 0.18, so that people get an error message in case they don't have the correct version installed... cheers ARUN
