So, I have two express complaints about the alpha 11 release. Firstly, I had to basically re-run autogen to get the core to build. It tried to re-run automake-1.4 to presumably re-create one of the Makefiles at some point, and failed, because I have automake-1.4 symlinked to automake-1.8 on my system. This is a problem. Why is maintainer-mode even enabled in the tarball? Secondly, I noticed that ebqt likes to spew to the console. One of the things I noticed it spewing, was my password, in plain text. This sucks. I found the option in ebqt.h to change and quickly did so. However, no I get no debug spew at all, but at least it isn't spewing plain text passwords all over the place. Anyway, Yahoo seems to work, so that is a good thing. And, I don't like the ebqt UI at all. It is way too big for my resolution, and doesn't seem to be user-friendly in the least. These two things have inspired me to start hacking on a gtk2 UI again. I should have a working wrapper lib around eb-lite soon, so I can actually work on the UI bits. Thanks. -- dobey
