I'm one of the maintainers of lunar-linux(.org), which basically is
an automated LFS with some bash scripts for package management.
We try to stay "on the edge" these days, although this introduces problems
like the fltk<->dillo incompatibility every now and then.
But we also explicitly feature vanilla software, so we only introduce distribution
specific patches if absolutely required (unlike basically all other distributions I know).
So yes, if this takes much longer, it's probably better to package the RC
than to keep a broken dillo module around.

Sure, but imho eocene is completely right with what he wrote earlier:

This was supposed to be version 3.0.4.1 to address the fltk problem quickely
and some patches even were rejected for this release because they would change too much
for such a release. By now this feels much more like 3.0.5 and it could probably also
include the dicache fixes eocene mentioned on the list...

As always, thanks for dillo,
